Cognitivism01:17

Cognitivism

Cognitive psychology emerged as a significant field in the mid-20th century. It focused on understanding humans' internal mental processes. This approach emphasizes how people perceive, remember, think, and solve problems—elements critical to human cognition.
Previously dominated by behaviorism, which prioritized observable behaviors and largely ignored mental processes, psychology transformed in the 1950s. Cognitive psychologists argue that understanding how we think and process information is...
The Scope of Physics01:17

The Scope of Physics

Physics is concerned with the interactions of energy, matter, space, and time, in order to discover the underlying mechanisms that underpin all phenomena. The word "physics" comes from the Greek word "phúsis", which means nature. Physics seeks to comprehend the natural world around us at its most fundamental level. It emphasizes the use of quantitative laws to do this, which could be valuable in other fields that want to push the performance boundaries of present technologies.

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition01:24

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition

A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are themselves.
Emission Spectra02:39

Emission Spectra

When solids, liquids, or condensed gases are heated sufficiently, they radiate some of the excess energy as light. Photons produced in this manner have a range of energies, and thereby produce a continuous spectrum in which an unbroken series of wavelengths is present.
Introduction to Cognitive Psychology01:20

Introduction to Cognitive Psychology

Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology dedicated to examining how people think. It attempts to explain how and why we think the way we do by studying the interactions among human thinking, emotion, creativity, language, and problem-solving, as well as other cognitive processes. Cognitive psychology studies how information is processed and manipulated in remembering, thinking, and knowing.
This field emerged in the mid-20th century, following a period dominated by behaviorism, which...
The Atomic Theory of Matter02:59

The Atomic Theory of Matter

The earliest recorded discussion of the basic structure of matter comes from ancient Greek philosophers. Leucippus and Democritus argued that all matter was composed of small, finite particles that they called atomos, meaning “indivisible.” Later, Aristotle and others came to the conclusion that matter consisted of various combinations of the four “elements” — fire, earth, air, and water — and could be infinitely divided. Interestingly, these philosophers thought about atoms and “elements” as...

Area of Science:

  • History of Science and Technology
  • Cold War Studies
  • Science and Government Policy

Background:

  • The fall of the Berlin Wall marked the end of the Cold War, transforming it into a historical period.
  • Scholarship on science, technology, and state relations during the Cold War has expanded substantially over the past two decades.
  • Early research focused on physics and "big science" in the American context.

Observation:

  • Recent scholarship broadens the scope to include scientific efforts in various domains beyond physics.
  • Studies increasingly adopt international and comparative frameworks to analyze Cold War science.
  • The collection reassesses current understanding of the science and Cold War nexus.

Findings:

  • Government patronage significantly influenced scientific endeavors during the Cold War.
  • The relationship between state funding and scientific innovation was complex and sometimes unexpected.
  • International perspectives reveal diverse national approaches to science during this era.

Implications:

  • Understanding Cold War science provides insights into the historical interplay of politics and scientific progress.
  • Comparative studies highlight the global nature of scientific development during the period.
  • This scholarship informs contemporary discussions on science policy and government funding.
