Some of these approaches include Behavioral Genetics, Biological, and Psychoanalytic. Behavioral genetics is a relatively new approach that attempts to explain certain behaviors through the lens of genetics. Behaviorism is one of the oldest approaches to psychology, and attempts to explain behavior through only what can be seen. Psychoanalytic focuses more on childhood experiences, and the subconcious.]]> 2018-08-27 13:21:22 UTC https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275519592 https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275524100 The text provided to us was able to present new concepts and terms through the use of straight-foward language. It seems to have relaible sources backing it up and it stays on point. That being said, the text seems to favor the work of Descartes and Darwin, as their works are more thoroughly explained. This text connects the different approaches to psychology to the central theme of understanding human behavior. The text could do a beter job of analyzing materialism.]]> 2018-08-27 13:33:44 UTC https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275524100 https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275524377  Q1.How can psychology try to define the key differences between the mind and the brain?
 A1.Psychology helps us to determine different sensations, emotions, and thoughts of a particular individual’s state of mind while it can also be used to pinpoint multiple brain disorders or processes that are used to allow us to think the way we do.
Q2.Would Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection and evolution be considered as a type of psychology? Why?
A2.Yes, the theory of natural selection and evolution is one of the most influential types of psychology as it set a stage providing multiple ways of determining behavioral and survival instincts of animals which could be used to study the basic roots of human behavior.
Q3.Being that the unconscious mind is normally harder to try to study, how has it been able to be studied and what connections can it be made to the conscious mind?
A3.The unconscious mind has 1 major way for it to be studied, through the use of children. By using a child’s imagination through the method of analyzing their dreams, we can use that information to connect to the child psychologically and can be used to relate it to older humans. Also, the unconscious mind is directly connected to the conscious mind as the conscious mind allows us to perceive multiple feelings, emotions, and sensations that can be used to shape our unconscious mind to a specific dream to determine our state of mind.]]> 2018-08-27 13:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275524377 https://padlet.com/revjesseturner1/zknvxiarklkj/wish/275532060 Who?
