What is the background of the study of psychology? - BulletPoints 1

  • The three fundamental ideas of psychology come down to: Behavior and mental experiences have physical causes that can be studied scientifically; the way people behave, feel and think is shaped over time by their experiences in their environment; the body produces behavior and mental experiences, and is a product of evolution through natural selection.
  • According to Descartes, the difference between humans and animals was the mind. He defined thoughts as conscious considerations and judgments. He suggested that the soul influences the body in a specific place: a small organ (pineal body) located between the two hemispheres of the brain. Descartes argued that thread-like structures bring sensory information through physical pathways to the brain (we now know as nerves or neurons). The soul receives the information and processes

Study Guide with Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods by Leary

Study Guide with Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods by Leary

Study Guide with summaries and study assistance for:

  • Book title: Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods
  • Author: Leary
  • Edition: 6th edition

What is Leary's book Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods about?

  • The book Introduction to Behavioral Research Methods is a widely used book in studies within the field of human and behavioural sciences. The book was specially written for student use.
  • The book focuses on the four main approaches to behavioral research; namely descriptive research, correlational research, experimental research and quasi-experimental research. The book explains how to conduct these methods and how to analyse the results. The book also examines the ethical issues that may arise during research into human behavior.

What are the main differences between the 6th and 7th editions?

Various updates were made in the 7th edition, including:

  • The subject of 'replicating research' is discussed in more detail.
  • The difference between reflective and formative measurements is explained in more detail.
  • Information has been added about doing research via the Internet, in view of the fact that the use of telephones with Internet connection has increased enormously in recent years.
  • The disadvantages and shortcomings of the traditional 0-hypothesis significance test are discussed further. Alternative methods for statistical inference are also discussed, including with regard to confidence intervals and effect sizes.
  • The order of topics dealt with within Chapters 11 and 12 has changed.
  • Information has been added about the safety of research via computers and the confidentiality of data.
  • Given the major fraud cases that have played a role since the last edition, information has also been added on this subject.
  • A new topic has been added, namely "ethical issues when analyzing research data and reporting the results".

  • Book title: Chapters on History of Psychology
  • Author: Van der Velde
  • Edition: 1st edition

About the book:

  • Study tips: In this book you learn so many different names of philosophers, of which you probably had only vaguely heard until recently, that the book sometimes resembles the introduction period at your new university. Just like with the introduction round with your new group, try to think of something for yourself with which you associate and remember that person.
