- 211: How Identities, Aspirations, and Achievements Of Two Females Were Affected By The Aspects of Family, Class, Gender, and Race
- ... entire life except she wishes to do this on her own. She is unsure of what avenue she would like to pursue in school, but she is somewhat pondering into psychology. Her aspiration for living an upper class life comes from her parents who have always given her everything she desired, not to mention the fact that she has witnessed the desires of everyone around her being satisfied, which consequently constructed an image of how she should try to live. Her interest in psychology seems to stem from her desire to understand people, being surrounded by her parents who are controlled by money and who use money as a form communicating feelings. Her limited ...
- 212: The Importance of Literature vs. Science

- 213: Jonathan's Swift's Real Argument
- Jonathan's Swift's Real Argument God only knows from whence came Freud's theory of penis envy, but one of his more tame theories, that of "reverse psychology", may have its roots in the satire of the late Jonathan Swift. I do not mean to assert that Swift employed or was at all familiar with that style of persuasion, but his style is certainly comparable. Reverse psychology (as I chose to define it for this paper) means taking arguments that affirm an issue to such a degree that they seem absurd, and thus oppose the issue. Swift ...

- 217: The European Enlightenment
- ... show the European Enlightenment came about as the result of the new natural science ideas of Isaac Newton, the political and social theories of great thinkers like Hobbes, and the psychology of John Locke. Much of Newton's thought comes from the thirteenth century science of men like Galileo, Copernicus, and Kepler. Hobbes's political and social theories can be traced back to the Northern Renaissance, and the psychology of Locke comes from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. There were many contradictory turns in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, first, with the overthrow of the monarchy in the seventeenth ...

- ... by projecting strange figures with a continuous persistence which are usually based on our habits, attitudes and unconscious motivations.

- 219: Silence Of The Lambs
- ... persons or groups and then from this conflict suspense, the last element is added. Suspense is important to keep the reader interested and to keep the story line going. When psychology is added to a story, the definition of horror is changed completely. There are still those few essential elements above but there is also a few more added. The story ... no definition for that.

- 220: Historical Psychoanalysis And Dream Interpretation: The Freudian Methodology
- ... dream, and without the guidance of Freud himself. It is easy for me criticize Freud's treatment, especially after a hundred years of growth and research in the area of psychology.
