    Lastly, there is family therapy, and in my opinion the most important. This is essential for both the patient and members of their family to understand and learn how to cope with this behavior. This style of therapy will teach family members not to be co-dependent and allow the patient to take responsibility for their actions.

    ...en the child and his or her siblings have minimize drastically. The child learns how to cope with his/her negative thoughts and feelings and do not act out the way they normally would. Parent Management Training consists of techniques where the parents are taught to change their own conducts, thus adjust their child’s problem behavior at home. Another strategy that I have come up with is cognitive therapy. This therapy may consist of testing the assumptions which one makes and looking for new information that could help change the assumptions in a way that leads to different emotional or behavioral reactions. I believe cognitive therapy will help Billy express his feelings of resentment towards his younger brother, and can eventually realize that there is no reason to feel any sort of way towards his little brother because he has not done anything wrong to him.

  • Freud Personality Theory

    1193 Words  | 3 Pages

    After reviewing all of theories of personalities throughout this course, I have found Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory to be my favorite theory of personality because it focuses on the three component parts of the mind: the id, ego and superego. This “structural theory” of personality places great importance on how conflicts among the parts of the mind shape behavior and personality. These conflicts are mostly unconscious. Romans 12:2 new living translation version states, “Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” This scripture is relevant because the mind needs to be renewed.

  • Herbert Mead's Social Psychology

    1303 Words  | 3 Pages

    Mead’s social psychology is based on the discipline that studies behaviors and activities in relation to sociology. Individual’s behavior has to be understood in connection to the society in which they live. No man is an island; every person belongs to a social group in which they were socialized. If a child is placed in a jungle with animals after birth to about five years, that child’s behavior would be like that of animals. Just so, if individuals grow up in society, belonging to a social group, where they interact and learn about their culture, then their behavior would be like that of the social group.

  • Psychology and William Wundt

    1488 Words  | 3 Pages

    William Wundt conceived psychology as a science that could be experimented. His work majored on the concept of voluntarism as a way of coming into terms with psychological problems. Wundt’s ideas of understanding psychological problems explored mental disorders and abnormal behavior, religious beliefs, and pronouncement of the damaged parts of the brain. Through his experiments, he was able to distinguish psychology as a distinct science from other topics. He believed that analyzing consciousness as an individual’s subjective experience of the mind and the world, should inform scientific psychology (Rieber, 2001).

  • Behaviorism: John B. Skinner's Approach To Psychology

    1800 Words  | 4 Pages

    Behaviorism is an approach to psychology based on the proposition that behavior can be researched scientifically without recourse to inner mental states. It is a form of materialism, denying any independent significance for mind. Its significance for psychological treatment has been profound, making it one of the pillars of pharmacological therapy. One of the assumptions of behaviorist thought is that free will is illusory, and that all behavior is determined by the environment either through association or reinforcement.
