Humanistic Theory: As an ER nurse, I see this theory being effective for nurses within this environment. ER nurses thrive for the human relationships, we desire social relationships probably more so that other nurses like lets say ICU nurses. ER nurses are very social, and able to jump from on situation to another quite quickly and effectively, whereas ICU nurses like things consistently quite, and do not take time to build strong relationships with co-workers, they from my experience of working in an ICU, spend less time socializing more time reviewing patient care and procedures. When ER nurses receive special attention like with the “Hawthorne” effect, they become more productive and wanting to work harder and smarter. I am sure other
As time goes by one would think the world is evolving in a positive manner. With all the new technology and new resources, we would assume to be better people than the generation before us. Many would argue that we are better because we are always well informed by the tabloids and social media of what is happening in the world. Unfortunately, we as humans are evolving in a negative manner. Our human nature since generations before us show how cruel we are. In the book, Maus written by Art Spiegelman shows us how malicious and inhuman people can treat each other. The novel illuminates our understanding of human nature as being evil as well as deceiving individuals, who do not act to better the world as time goes on.
In this study I looked into the physical locations surrounding the home I grew up in. I analyzed the tree growth, pattern and conditions of the roads, and observed the formation of houses in my area. This research is important because it shows how people in rural central Maine live. While studying these locations, I was able to practice and hone my observation skills that will become useful when completing my ethnographic study later in the semester. As an ethnography is described, it is a study into particular ways of human life. While we are not directly studying human nature or human past, we are able to observe different ways of life in a specific human society in this assignment, training us to look at what they see as normal as something they have never seen before. Using Google Earth to locate and describe an area each person knows very well, but from a different view, allows the young researchers to look at the area in a unique perspective. All of the buildings, fields and forests I describe in this study I have seen before from a different view. Forgetting what is known and purely describing what you see causes the familiar to become unfamiliar and the researcher can discover new things they knew existed.
According to the book, The Humanistic Tradition by Gloria K. Fiero, in the Babylonian society, women were often considered inferior compared to men. The book states that women were considered less intelligent and less physically capable of performing the required need of men. The book also states that women were basically a property aspect of the men. The women were in retrospect, slaves. They were considered inferior, had little to zero rights, and was expected to do as they were commanded by their husband or father. The women of the era were kept inside by their fathers until the day that their husband was chosen for them and then the women were pretty much transferred from one house to another. Even though the women was considered almost as a property her work was not unnoticed. Her work around the house, so to say, were noticed daily.
There are many different theories of how people learn and in considering their application to how students learn and how teachers teach; educational programmes must be of holistic value. Learning according to the humanistic theory speaks to the holistic value that must be communicated through the process of acquiring new
The Humanistic theory is one that is easily applied to helping-careers due to its approachable and client-focused nature. Concepts such as the hierarchy of needs and person-centered therapy become essential tools for a future licensed clinical social worker. As a social worker, one must also be able to understand how this theory, specifically the hierarchy of needs, affects individuals and the way it influences the choices they make in their everyday lives. Additionally, focusing on families, specifically immigrants, includes interacting with people of different ages, understanding each person’s motivation needs, and findings ways to help them improve their situation through therapy. Lastly, a social work career may lead to a supervisor position
Nursing is an integral part of the health system, it’s a professional field that is concerned with taking care of the sick or injured person, and providing preventive health care. Psychology on the other hand is the science of behavior and mental process-Myers (chap 1). The study of psychology helps nurses to understand patients character, thoughts and actions. Greater understanding of patient’s health needs, contribute to change their behaviors, and state of mind and emotions. The field of psychology has some major perspectives which include the behavioral, cognitive, psychodynamic, and humanistic. The behavioral perspective views the observable responses and behavior of the individual in different situations, when communication occurs between
John Locke’s “An Essay Concerning Human Understanding,” and David Hume’s “A Treatise of Human Nature” both discuss the ideas and thoughts they each have on personal identity. Normally when someone thinks of personal identity, they think of the distinct personality of a man or woman. Each person has their own personality.
Some visual signs, symbols, and characteristics in the art mentioned that exemplify a shift to humanism from the Renaissance include the use of linear perspective, the transformation of bodies and common symbols or objects, and a more careful study of human anatomy as demonstrated by more realistic forms or proportions.
Thank you for your response. I have read a couple of responses, and they are similar, in that they mention that professional educators mix and match approaches to curriculum, more than, perhaps, stick to one flavor. I mentioned in my post that I began as a supporter of the behavioral approach to curriculum. Yet, now, I am full time teacher of record in a prime example of the humanistic approach—and I love it. I am an engineer by spirit, so I tend toward the behavior and systems approaches by nature. However, I’ve been involved in the International Baccalaureate curriculum for the past 6 years, first as a parent, then as a substitute in the classroom, and currently as teacher of record for Middle School Science. I’ve watched my own children mature in the system, and then fail, because of their point of entry. I’ve seen other children mature from Kindergarten to Middle School and have noticed the difference between those who started here in Kindergarten and those who came within two years prior to Middle School.
At the beginning of this course I was excited to finally delve into psychological concepts that I had not learned about, being that I was fresh into the psychology major and my background included an infinitesimal understanding of basic concepts along with some background on child developmental psychology. I have never deeply thought about psychology’s relation to science, especially in regards to research. My primary learning expectations for the course were to ultimately comprehend the scientific side of psychology, while also being able to grasp an understanding of different psychological concepts such as psychoanalysis, and about how these are translated into the ontological, epistemological, or methodological aspects of research. Now coming to the end of the semester, I have realized the depth and significance of the human science approach to researching and understanding people. In regards to career goals, I plan retain the important qualities of the theories we discussed and use them to visualize and recognize the complexity and malleability of an individual’s inner psyche. However, I still find myself lost in trying
been a relatively easy decision having looked in more depth at the course content. Without exception, some element interests me, for example, is abnormal psychology, social psychology, and I look forward to the analysis, research and exploration of these in greater depth. I particularly find the humanistic approach intriguing and look forward to studying the works of Sigmund Freud in more details, because if I learn this topic I can research more about the humanistic approach.I have a definite interest in educational psychology or within a social work setting because I want to more people to learn more about psychology and
Have people ever think about them self in the right way and think if they should stick with group of people or being unique. A lot of people say that they should have group to get contact each other, get help if they need for, ask them In state of emergency. However in the over hand some people say that they love and prefer to be without groub just with them self they say its an amizing feeling to feel unique that you are the only one spical and they don’t need to other people. People think in many way some of them like to be in sqwaud and others like to be alone.
Humanistic psychology is refereed as the '3rd force' in psychology it was an alternative to psychoanalysis and behaviourism. Humanistic psychology was instead focused on each individual's potential and stressed the importance of growth and self-actualization. A fundamental belief that people are born good but that this can be distorted through social interactions and life experiences. In this essay I plan to explain Carl Rogers’s theories of person centred and how I have linked them to myself. Carl Rogers stated that there was many key aspects which make up a person’s personality.

nature of humanity. It was taught that human beings are born into sin but this did not mean that people were nature evil but it did mean that human beings were born with a natural tendency toward selfishness and sin. Enlightenment thinkers denied this believing the evils in human society were due to ignorance, superstition, and entrenched political and religious authority. They believed they could be overcome with proper education, freedom from superstition, dogmatic religion, and political tyranny. The belief in the inherent goodness of humanity, and the power of reason, and the advances of science led to an optimistic belief in progress. There were arguments that the history of the past showed that the human race was moving to an ultimate perfection. This future would bring equality among nations, equality of freedom and rights among the visuals, and indefinite perfectibility of human nature itself intellectually, morally, and physically. Such progress and understanding, will be continued and be spread by public education so as to elevate the whole race of humanity. Enlightenment thinkers were passionate Advocates of Liberty by which they meant freedom for political and religious authorities. The original idea had been that religious unity was essential to Unity of people and a country. Enlightenment notions of political liberty derive largely from 17th century English thinker John Locke who maintained that governments derive their legitimacy from the consent of the
