The main character, Rebecca, has Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and the show is basically about her impulsive (and usually bad) decisions.

    Great video. Very true too. When people take a course on something like psychology, but also on, for instance, analyzing popular culture, there can indeed be a tendency to overanalyze and to recognize the things that were learned in the course elsewhere. I've had issues similar to that myself, and I haven't even taken a psychology course; I only read up on it online. I'm glad you made this video. Good luck with the psychology classes!

  • @zmijozmajo4384
    @zmijozmajo4384 4 роки тому +52

    There are some key missing points here. First, to say that psychology is often referred to as the "relationship between brain functions and behavior or environment" is kinda dangerous to say to the audience and also incorrect. The thing about psychology is, even though there is empirical research going on, there are still many different "schools" (behaviorism, psychoanalysis, humanistic approaches, gestalt etc) which all look at people's behavior from different angles. This is kind of a thing that we had in natural sciences a few hundred years ago when there was no universal consensus. The definition of psychology stated is simply incorrect because it makes a person believe that if they take psychology class that it is going to be biologically focused, which is only one of the perspectives you must take when trying to grasp something as complex as the mind, actually this definition is closer to a field called cognitive neuroscience. If you truly want to approach the field of psychology without becoming too conservative, I advise you to read something on philosophy of mind, philosophy of social sciences and epistemology before starting with psychology per se, it will give you a perspective on which aspects of the human mind can actually be measured (in a scientific way), and why you don't want to disregard something about the mind as a psychologist in your practice (depending on your subfield) just because it can not be truly empirically tested.

  • @Rainbowthehedgehog
    @Rainbowthehedgehog 7 років тому +244

    I'm currently majoring in Psychology and going for a minor in art. I didn't need to take the General Psychology (beginners class) course due to the fact I passed my AP psychology exam back in high school so I got extra credit. So for my freshman year of college, I took Adolescence Psychology, Human Development Psychology and Abnormal Psychology (which I completely enjoyed) and passed with A's 😊Now that I'm a sophomore, I'm gonna be taking Neuropsychology, Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences (pretty much statistics in psychology), and for 2nd semester (I'll be a junior then) I'll be taking Research methods, Social Psychology and Theories of personality. I might end up graduating early tho. After these courses, I'll need about 2 or 3 psychology courses left.

    in the uk our psychology courses are a little bit different, but in general these tips are pretty good :) definitely keeping in mind that you are not a doctor is important, ive been obsessed with psychology since I was around 12 so I definitely had my phase where I was diagnosing everyone, I was usually correct xD but even so its not a good idea. you will begin to view people a lil differently once you understand more about psychology but going to the extent of treating them like diagnostic toys is not good. also I find that when people hear you are taking psychology and are into therapy ect they assume you will have all the answers so watch out for that keep your interest in the human mind and your friends separate when the lines blur it can be difficult for you to maintain healthy relationships

    Boring! Psychology is a wonderful field of science, but this just makes it no fun.

When you take this white-lab-coat approach it minimizes the Humanity of Psychology, and focuses on the mechanical.

      psychologist isn't supposed to be fun. it's not like astrology where you giggle at the results of how quirky you are as a libra - you're going to work with ACTUAL people that need ACTUAL guidance.
      do you literally think it'll be fun when you become, let's say, a developmental psychologist when you're going to tackle topics such as depression and other mental illnesses?
      psychology isn't something to be glamorized. psychology, after all, is still pretty much a new science considering that people would only tackle issues relating to the mind in a more philosophical sense rather than scientifically prior to the 'discovery' of psychology.
      you're supposed to understand and help, not to have fun.

    I feel like this was kind of directed towards people who are ignorant enough to think that taking one course in ANYTHING qualifies you as a professional immediately. Even coding (which is hella easy) requires more than one course before you can call yourself any sort of professional. I'm pretty sure analysis of others is just how most people go about their daily lives.

    I used to start off as a biology major until volunteering at a vet clinic made me realize that being a veterinarian was not my supposed dream job when I claimed I want to work with animals. A talk with the biology adviser made me realize that being a service dog trainer sounded more like me because the thought of training dogs at my own pace already sounded relaxing. I hate working under pressure and I prefer to work alone because I can't stand group stuff for the most part. Switching to psych major really shaped my character because I liked reading the material a lot better compared to when I struggled to comprehend tedious math and science formulas/equations.

    So I guess after a while you know what you want to do when you discover what area it falls in :)

    I decided to take psychology when I was in 9th grade because I was extremely interested in hypnosis 😂 I kept telling everyone I want to do psychology because I imagined myself holding a pendulum and hypnotizing people 😂
    Later on I realized u r not gonna learn hypnosis and magic techniques to read people's mind and manipulate people and stuff 😂
    But I learnt that it's more of understanding ourselves. The more u understand urself the more u connect with people. Hypnosis (kind of a diploma course)and therapies are other fields which u will specialise in after your bachelors..
    So anyway I decided to stick with the field, fell in love with psychology.. Currently working as a counsellor and still expanding my knowledge. It's ab amazing field 😍

Or social and mass behaviour and help media or marketing. Forensic psychology if you are interested in the crimes and stuff. It all actually depends on which field of psychology u choose.

    i took up psychology in the past because it's interesting, not boring and mainly because i want to understand people and help myself and the people i can. studying psychology was fun but damn, number 2 and a little bit of number 4 happened to me. it's fucking annoying and worsened my depression. i really missed the times when i don't overthink and just enjoyed life for what it is. even if you want to shut your brain it's there. but it's better now.

    The problem with referring to psychology as a science is that you can't always implement the scientific method. Certain times that people have done so in the past have either been disastrous or considered crimes against humanity.

    • @Psych2go
      @Psych2go  7 років тому

      Certain approaches are better than others, but at the end of the day, psychology is doing their best to be systematic and scientific. But yeah, case studies are best for crimes that have been done.
