Psicología anormal y del comportamiento

Science is not limited to researchers but it is mainly studied at the University. In this way, the internationalization of Higher Education has brought an enriching perspective to the topic that is addressed. Here, we came across a challenging scenario of learning the particular Stroop paradigm. A group of Erasmus students share its curiosity about their own differences in their performance, which fosters the present work. It is aimed at nurturing their (and other people´s) learning during their early career. Therefore, an approximation to the scientific method was followed by them, which is described in the present work. Finally, a glossary of 18 terms was listed during the exercise. We hope this can be used as a motivating material for putting theory into practice.

This article describes a possible project in the fight against Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine may be used for structural brain scans periodically on advanced T2DM patients under a restrictive diet of glucose and no gluten and a regimen of daily aerobic exercises and brain exercises. The MRI scans will provide physical neural confirmation that there is reversal of atrophy in the hippocampus. This confirmation or otherwise will affirm the effectiveness or otherwise of the specific diet and exercise proposed.

The main aim of holistic education is to call forth from people an intrinsic reverence for life and a passionate love of learning. Unfortunately, many of today’s modern societies appear to focus on the pursuit of material possessions and career advancement. Arguing that spiritual growth is part and parcel of the personal, social and emotional development, education and care of youths, this paper present some key principals for educators and other professionals working with troubled youths and their families. It concludes that the well-being of our spiritual life not only goes a long way toward overcoming the sense of fragmentation and alienation that so many of our students feel, but will also helps our next generation lead more meaningful lives.

Behavioural problems of the children are said to be caused mainly because of the nurturance and child rearing styles of the patents. The increased level of stress and anxiety in the family surroundings, which in turn influence parent child relationship, is caused due to the disorganized parenting style. The present study is designed to examine the parenting style as a correlate of mental health among female adolescents. Female adolescents (N=70), studyingin in different schools of Delhi/ NCR has been taken as the sample of the study. Parenting style was asessed by Measure of Parental style (MOPS), Parker and mental health of adolescents by DASS. The finding of the study indicated a positive significant relationship between all the dimensions of parenting style of mother and mental health i.e., indifference parenting style of mother and stress (r=0.346); over controlling parenting of mothers and stress, (r=0.350); anxiet, ( r=0.400), and depression, (r=0.453). A significant positive relationship also exist between indifference parenting style of mother and anxiety, (r=0.284). As far as the abuse parenting style is concerned, a significant positive relationship found with anxiety irrespective of gender (with father, r=0.242). (with mother, r=0.431). A significant relationship also exists between abuseparenting of mother and stress, (r=0.252); and depression (r=0.332). No significant relationship exist between any other constructs of parenting style of father and mental health.

It was reported by some of the adolescents suffering from various health issues likeinsensible, cold, pretentious behavior and unbearable words of their parents. Thus, the findingsof this study can be implemented in tailoring adolescent health promotion interventions.

This paper was to survey the gap of generation between two generations of Mothers and High school Girl Students in Bushehr City regarding their commitment towards religious beliefs and values. This was a causativecomparative study done according to descriptive-surveying way. Data were gathered via a researcher-structured questionnaire based on Likert scale. Statistical population consisted of 4205 Mothers and Student girls of Bushehr City high schools among which 350 individuals were randomly selected based on multi-stage clustering sampling method. Content analysis was used for validity and Chronbach’s Alpha was also used for reliability (α=83%). Findings, based on appropriately statistical analyses, showed that Mothers’ commitment towards material values would be less than girls while there would be no significant difference between Mothers’ and girls’ attitude towards getting married based on love. Also, Mothers’ commitment towards marriage, marriage at early-stage of life and laying down, Mothers’ beliefs, Mothers’ attitude towards religious behaviour collectively and individually, Mothers’ attitude towards family marriage would be significantly higher and somehow stronger than the girls.

This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the efficiency of Interventional person-centered narrative therapy on increasing happiness and reducing death anxiety in elderly people. This study, which is a single case study, is in the form of multiple baselines. Of population of elderly people in nursing homes in Tehran, one person was selected using accessible sampling and participated this study. Research tool included Oxford happiness questionnaire (1989) and Templer Death Anxiety Scale. To analyze data, chart and graphical analysis were used. Results showed that person-centered narrative therapy has a positive effect on increasing happiness and reducing death anxiety. Percentage change for happiness and anxiety was 42% and 53% respectively. The effects of these improvements largely remained during follow up period. Therefore, narrative therapy can be used that results in inner peace by having a positive theme toward events.

Looking back at one year after the establishment of ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), we all realize there are many issues and sectors left open to be developed, especially in Indonesia. One of the most important is people and their jobs. As there is a tendency for people to view the establishment as a competitive ground, we suggest seeing it as a learning platform for inspection and improvement. To change how people take and view their jobs or prospects is as important as hiring the right people. A way that psychology can contribute to this is through the study of professions happiness—what makes people happy doing their job. The focus of the study is ethics, as it is viewed as a moral compass in each profession’s responsibilities. The result of the interview of eight professions (insurance agent, teacher, journalist, nurse, developer, pastor, lawyer, and horticulturist) showed that indeed, money and status is not the top contributors in determining what makes people happy doing their jobs. It is the chance of contributions to society, or at least another person, have power over what to do, without violating ethics, and able to learn and improve. This result suggests that, there is a need for a focus shift from seeing a profession as competitive ground, to a platform of improvement, and contribution to society-within one’s own accord.

The psyche stands, connects and operates in between consciousness and matter. Traditionally, the psyche has been considered to have a monolithic structure composed of mind or consciousness. From a robust common sense experience and from the experience of those engaged in inward Olympics with mind this paper theoretically dissects the constituent member of the psyche and their autonomous operations and interaction. From the insight of its polylithic character the paper develops a new description of Systems Psyche. Sandwiched between consciousness and matter the model comprises of a complex relational matrix, a stratified, hierarchically nested labyrinthine structure and process. The probable footprints of the operations at molecular synaptic level have been suggested, which merit further research for developing a concrete picture. These molecular connections could emerge as the basis of developing a systems science accommodating systems biology with systems psychology while consciousness remains active at the top. A beneficial spin off is a new way of classifying psychological and psychiatric disorders.

This study aims to investigate the presence of drugs in this group of drivers who already had a crash (injured or killed drivers). By law, the prosecutor is the authority who requests the toxicological examination specifying the type of analysis that will be performed, usually only alcohol test is required. There has been some investigation regarding the influence of alcohol in traffic crashes in Albania (3,190,089 inhabitants), but never a research regarding the use of illicit and medicinal drugs in drivers in our country. Alcohol was analyzed in blood by head-space gaschromatography. Blood samples were also screened for psychoactive substances (opiates, cocaine metabolites, cannabis, amphetamines, methamphetamines, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants, barbiturates) by immunological methods.     Their presence was confirmed by gas-chromatography. Overall, 82 car drivers were included in the study. Drivers involved in accidents were more frequently men 98.8% (n=81). 46 drivers (56.1%) had a positive blood alcohol concentration at the time of the crash, but only 23 (28%) had toxic concentrations exceeding 1.2 g/l. In total, 15.9% were positive for illicit drugs and medicinal drugs. This study revealed that beside alcohol, psychoactive substances were present in Albanian crashed drivers, too.
