    In a philosophical context psychology

    was around thousands of years ago

    in ancient Greece, Egypt, India, Persia

    and China. Medieval Muslim

    psychologists and doctors had a

    more clinical and experimentalapproach to psychology - they were

    the first to have psychiatric

    hospitals.

    Pierre Cabanis (France) created

    biological psychology in 1802. A

    physiologist, Cabanis wrote a well

    known essay called "Relations

    between the physical and moral

    aspects of man" ("Rapports du

    physique et du moral de l'homme").He interpreted the mind according to

    his previous studies of biology. He

    believed that sensibility and soul

    were parts of the nervous system

    .

    (Wilhelm wundt 1832-1920)

    1879, the birthdate of psychology - In1879 Wilhelm Wundt, Germany,

    founded psychology as a truly

    independent experimental field of

    study. He set up the first laboratory

    that carried out psychologicalresearch exclusively at Leipzig

    University. Wundt is known today as

    the father of psychology.

    Love is a psychologicaldisorder?

    Falling in love doesnt appear asa medical condition, but if itssymptoms, As noted by the Britishwriter and psychologist Frank Tallis.

    Researchers have outlined theneurological effect of falling in lovewith a person, from the initial "crush"to long after the relationship ends.Love has quite an impact on the waythe brain would regularly functionotherwise and, just like alcohol, your

    judgment is the first thing to beimpaired. Love even alters the activityof various neurotransmitters andhormones in the brain that alterbehavior in ways .comparable to somepsychological disorders.

    The music we hear says

    a lot about our

    personality?

    Psychologists Peter J. Rentfrow and

    Samuel D. Gosling, University of

    Texas have been scientifically

    proven that the musical preferences

    of each individual define their

    personality.A few years ago devised

    the "Short Test Musical

    Preferences",and subjected to

    several hundred young people to

    their questions.And they concluded

    that if you love blues or jazz will

    probably be a smart person,

    ima inative and tolerant.

    Heavy metal consumers agree in

    their high intelligence, but arealso particularly curious, athletic

    and social leaders.Extroversion,

    talkativeness, energy and high

    self-esteem are the features that

    predominate among fans of hip-

    hop and funky.And those who

    listen to popular songs from

    Madonna, or the soundtrack of

    Dances with Wolves, tend to be

    conservative, wealthy, happy,pleasant and, often, emotionally

    unstable.

    identify a psychopath? Is the question

    that has launched the Online Privacy

    Foundation.to know that the company

    Kaggle created an experiment called

    twitter big 5 and applies to the

    microblogging platform earlier work of

    Professor Jefferey Hancock of Cornell

    University, on the relationship between

    psychopathy and the words we use.The

    experiment was carried out in the form

    of online competition in which scientists

    with expertise in data management have

    been invited to develop the best possible

    algorithm to identify a psychopath

    tweets and personality profiles of 3,000

    people, of which 337 have been drawn

    Also known as the Rorschach inkblot test, the Rorschach technique, or simply

    the inkblot test) is a psychological test in which subjects' perceptions of inkblots are

    recorded and then analyzed using psychologicalinterpretation, complex algorithms,or both. Some psychologists use this test to examine a person's personality

    characteristics and emotional functioning. It has been employed to detect

    underlying thought disorder, especially in cases where patients are reluctant to

    describe their thinking processes openly. The test is named after its creator, Swiss

    psychologist Hermann Rorschach. In the 1960s, the Rorschach was the most widely

    used projective test. In a national survey in the U.S., the Rorschach was ranked

    eighth among psychological tests used in outpatient mental health facilities. It is the

    second most widely used test by members of the Society for Personality Assessment,

    and it is requested by psychiatrists in 25% of forensic assessment cases, usually in a

    battery of tests that often include the MMPI-2 and the MCMI-III. In surveys, the use

    of Rorschach ranges from a low of 20% bycorrectional psychologists to a high of

    80% by clinical psychologists engaged in assessment services, and 80%

    ofpsychologygraduate programs surveyed teach it.

    Although the Exner Scoring System (developed since the 1960s) claims to have

    addressed and often refuted many criticisms of the original testing system with an

    extensive body of research, some researchers continue to raise questions. The areas

    of dispute include the objectivity of testers, inter-rater reliability, the verifiability

    and general validity of the test, bias of the test's pathology scales towards greater

    numbers of responses, the limited number of psychological conditions which it

    accurately diagnoses, the inability to replicate the test's norms, its use in court-ordered evaluations, and the proliferation of the ten inkblot images, potentially

    invalidating the test for those who have been exposed to them.

    The ten InkblotsWhen seeing Card I, subjects often inquire on how they shouldproceed, and questions on what they are allowed to do withthe card (e.g. turning it) are not very significant

    The red details ofCard II are often seen as blood, and

    are the most distinctive features

    Card III is typically perceived to contain two humans involved in

    some interaction, and may provide information about how thesubject relates with other people (specifically, response latency

    may reveal struggling social interactions)

    Card IV is notable for its dark color and its shading(posing difficulties for depressed subjects)

    Card V is an easily elaborated card that is not usually

    perceived as threatening, and typically instigates a

    "change of pace" in the test, after the previous more

    challenging cards.

    Texture is the dominant characteristic ofCard VI,

    which often elicits association related to interpersonal

    closeness; it is specifically a "sex card"

    Card VII can be associated with femininity (the human figures

    commonly seen in it being described as women or children), and

    function as a "mother card", where difficulties in responding may

    be related to concerns with the female figures in the subject's life

    People often express relief about Card VIII, which lets them relax

    and respond effectively. Similar to card V, it represents a "change

    of pace"; however, the card introduces new elaborationdifficulties, being complex and the first multi-colored card in the

    set

    Characteristic ofCard IX is indistinct form and diffuse,muted chromatic features, creating a general vagueness.

    Card X is structurally similar to card VIII, but its uncertainty

    and complexity are reminiscent of card IX: people who find

    it difficult to deal with many concurrent stimuli may not

    particularly like this otherwise pleasant card.

    Hermann

    Rorschach created

    the Rorschach

    inkblot test in 1921.
