- Post-Divorce and Economic Consequences
[Relationships:Post-Divorce] The economic consequences of remarriage are significant. Divorce often results in financial crisis for women and children. Inadequate divorce settlements and poor enforcement of support by fathers are serious widespread problems. The shift in divorce laws toward no-fault divorce and "equal division " of property was intended to facilitate the divorce process and to compensate women who assumed the primary homemaking and child-rearing responsibilities.
- Oedipal Fantasies
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Children between age 3 and 6 years commonly imagine "marrying " one of their parents, having children with them, and generally taking the place of the other parent. Such fantasies are often accompanied by ideas of the displaced parents relation. Fantasies may involve parents of either sex.
- Article Writing in Psychology
[Writing-and-Speaking:Writing-Articles] Most people find psychology interesting and are eager to learn more about it .But they do not want to fight through dull and meaningless writing. As article writers, the biggest hurdle that we face involves turning complex, technical concepts into prose that other can appreciate.
- The Abstract
[Reference-and-Education:College-University] A reader's first exposure to your writing is likely to be the abstract, a summary no longer than 120 words. The abstract is the most recently developed section of published journal articles. APA journals used to print a summary at the end of article; authors created an abstract, but it was only used for the now-defunct psychological Abstracts, Psyc. INFO replaced.
- Child Abuse and Neglect
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Abreaction is the discharge or release of emotional tension associated with a repressed idea, conflict, or memory. The term often implies the 'reliving' or vivid recall of a painful emotional experience.
- Control of Emotional Expression
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] The automatic mobilizing of motor reactions is not only noticeable by the person himself, but these responses have also an expressive impact on his environment. They function as signals advertising to outsiders the condition a person is in. People are aware of this and often refuse to allow these automatisms to follow their course spontaneously, but consciously try to steer them, and sometimes to quell them utterly.
- What the Discussion Section Is
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Imagine that you knew something about behavior that nobody else in the world knew. You could do one of two things with the knowledge. You could keep it to yourself or you could shout it from the rooftops.
- Affect in the Theory of Abreaction
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Abreaction is the discharge or release of emotional tension associated with a repressed idea, conflict, or memory. The term often implies the 'reliving' or vivid recall of a painful emotional experience.
- Clarifying Terms in the Research
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Let your reader know how you are using important terms. Clarify your terminology.
- Tips on Giving a Presentation
[Writing-and-Speaking:Public-Speaking] You are likely to be anxious before your presentation. Some good tips are here.
- Creating Graphics For Your Presentation
[Business:Presentation] Presentation graphics have evolved from photographic slides, to overhead transparencies, to power point presentations. The flexibility of power point is such that you can create just about any type of graphic that you desire. Ironically, even though you can generate a slides simple.
- Is Assessing Your Sources Important?
[Reference-and-Education] Imagine that you have been diagnosed with an illness and need treatment. How do you find out what treatment is the best for your condition? Would you be more likely to trust a doctor or a medical student?
- Recognizing the Importance of Good Grammar and Style
[Writing-and-Speaking] Generally, grammar and style do not seem to be exciting topics. They involve rules that don't make sense and seemingly obscure terms that confuse more than they clarify. Furthermore, knowing the difference between a subordinating and a correlative conjunction does not necessarily mean that a writer is able to use them correctly (the connects two independent clauses and the former joins an independent clause with a dependent one).
- How to Read and Summarize a Journal Article
[Writing-and-Speaking] You have probably been reading for one or more decades by now. Has it occurred to you that you might still need to learn how to read? Whipple (1910) was not very optimistic about college students' abilities to read. His assessment of students is not entirely realistic - College students today would not be in college if they were poor readers. Still, reading scientific articles is different from casual reading.
- What is Communicating Statics?
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] If you can't fall asleep, you might try counting sheep. As everybody knows, numbers can put your mind into a stupor that is every bit as deep as sleep. When you are reading and you see a set of numbers, does your mind go numb?
- Genetic Aspects of Mental Illness
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Differences in the prevalence of mental illnesses may be partly explained by genetic factors (breeding effects and higher consanguinity rates), or by differences in ethnic backgrounds. However, environmental factors may also be implicated, while some divergences could be a result of sampling errors.
- Realistic Anxiety
[Health-and-Fitness:Anxiety] Realistic anxiety has about the same meaning as fear. In realistic anxiety the feeling that one is threatened has a clear source. Say that you have been asked to give a short speech.
- Neurotic Anxiety
[Health-and-Fitness:Anxiety] Anxiety is a state of heightened emotional arousal containing a feeling of apprehension or dread. Like fear, the subject feels threatened. Unlike fear, the subject often perceives the source of the threat in vague or poorly defined terms.
- What Are Dreams?
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] A Dream is series of thoughts and images taking place while one is sleeping. To explain I can give you an example. Omer, a thirty-three-year-old accountant, dreams he is a gladiator in the ancient Roman Colosseum. He kills an opponent in combat. He awakens from the dream in a state of excitement. There is a lingering feeling of fear. A moment ago he was in danger of losing his life! There is also a sense of satisfaction associated with his success in a fight to the death. Omer smiles and thinks to himself, 'It seemed real.'
- What is Cognition and Cognitive Dissonance?
[Book-Reviews:Psychology] Let's say that you are asked, 'How are an apple, a grape, and a peach alike?' You probably have conscious images of the items. It takes only a bit of reflection to decide that the right answer is, 'they are all kinds of fruit.' Knowing represents cognition.
- What is Ambivalence?
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Ambivalence refers to a motivational conflict such that one is simultaneously attracted to and repelled by the same goal. I can give you an example to understand well. In the novel Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, Anna, a married women, finds herself attracted to the handsome bachelor Count Vronsky.
- Why Do We Use Statistics?
[Reference-and-Education:Psychology] Psychology is an empirical discipline, so we gather information to answer our question. Most of the time, this information goes by the name data and most of the time it involves numbers.
- Presenting Your Work on the Internet
[Internet-and-Businesses-Online] The internet is clearly about more than sports scores and email now. It's a place where we can conduct our democracy and get very large amounts of data to very large number of people.
