I don't have much experience with this, but I have been doing some reading in motivational psychology.\n\nYou might want to do a search on Douglas McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y management philosophies.  Basically, Theory X is a "control and command" type of management style and Theory Y is "growth" type of style.  You can also check out Maslow's "Hierarchy of Needs".  Basically, the idea here is that you need to fulfill people's basic needs first: food, security, love/friendship, ego before they can start to think about other things and grow.\n\nAlso check out the Jan 21st issue of "The Economist", which talks about new ways of organizing American businesses.

I’d outline the points that I want to make.  Start off with a sentence or two that summarizes your position.\n\nList the points in chronological order (Don't include the numbering system)\n\nFinish by making a similar summary to the opening one that emphasizes your thesis.  For example:\n\nFaith in the one, true God and understanding that His love assures us that He has our best interest in mind provides believers with security and protection from depression.  \n\nPoint 1)\n\nPoint 2)\n\nChronic depression often finds it’s root in fearful anxiety and an understanding of God’s love can alleviate the effect of fear and replace that uncertainty with the confidence and assurance necessary to live a full and productive life.\n\nJohnny

Use something involving statistics and probability, or something that deals with percentage values. That's what alot of psychology is centered on, the thesis and facts are based off of. You need to use an example of what would be the ratio of students who are business majors, compared to the number who are education and psychology majors. Use figures with business being the most, education being next, and psychology being last. Like you could say, at a fictional college 150 students are business majors, 85 are education, and 46 are psychology, etc. That's a suggestion.

As far as collegiate studies go, I would focus more on engineering, and study psychology on your own time. Quite frankly, engineering is harder, and using outside resources makes more sense for that discipline. Hey, I like psychology, too, but I didn't need a college course to have a college-level understanding about how the human mind works. Learning how to make a suspension bridge is a different matter entirely. I would rather be instructed by someone who has built a bridge, or knows how to, before I try to build one.

I would recommend you first put your mind in a neutral position.  Then start reading and observing.  if you find you still have seteotypical thinking, then either you are right, you never put your mind in a neutral position or you missed something.

i think you should be down to earth and say i want to prepare them to be functional figures in society and discover their own talents and interests. make it general i guess... :)

I love psychology, but you're right about the amount of reading at first. It gets easier later on, though, because you know most of the stuff from the other courses you've already taken. And you get to do research as an undergrad if you're lucky! I also liked microbiology, anatomy, English composition, calculus, and statistics.

Hi\nI can recommend a good web-site that may help you find appropriate journals etc. You can download the tool bar and locate relevant literature (with the references to in some cases).\n\nwww.PsyPlex.com\n\nMichael

Try the psychological approach called transactional analysis, the parent adult child model by Eric Berne, it really is effective!!!! Psychology is an amazing tool to help with human behaviour, relationships and communication! Start with a simple book to introduce you to psychology, then progress to others. You will be glad that you did.\nI wish you all the best! :o)\nI am a psychology graduate.

What do you want to study? What interests you about, the way people think and act based on thought processes. Or what type of disease process are you interested in related to the brain? After you decode on wht interests you, then research it. Start by using libraries and web browsers to lookup the topic you have choosen. Is this college, grammar school or high school? I really cannot believe that you would not know how to pick a subject and how to research it...if you were seriously taking a psych class.

Can you do human psychology experiements, or experiment people reacting to certain stimulus. For example, placing an object somewhere and recording people's response to it.
