Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist born in 1856, significantly influenced psychology through his exploration of the unconscious mind.

Psychological and Sociocultural Causes of Schizophrenia

719
Schizophrenia, a complex psychiatric disorder, has been historically misunderstood. Early psychological theories attributed its origins to childhood trauma and unresponsive parenting. However, contemporary research largely rejects these notions, favoring the vulnerability-stress hypothesis. This model proposes that individuals with a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia may develop the disorder following exposure to significant environmental stressors. Notably, studies on high-risk...

Assumptions of Survival Analysis01:15

Assumptions of Survival Analysis

468
Survival models analyze the time until one or more events occur, such as death in biological organisms or failure in mechanical systems. These models are widely used across fields like medicine, biology, engineering, and public health to study time-to-event phenomena. To ensure accurate results, survival analysis relies on key assumptions and careful study design.

Humanistic Psychology

Humanistic psychology emerged in the mid-20th century as a response to the deterministic and pessimistic nature of behaviorism and psychoanalysis. While behaviorism focused on observable behaviors influenced by the environment and psychoanalysis delved into unconscious motivations, both theories suggested that human actions lacked free will. In contrast, humanistic psychology offers a perspective that emphasizes the innate potential for goodness and growth within every individual.

Area of Science:

  • Interdisciplinary studies
  • Social sciences
  • Public health

Background:

  • Traditional suicide research often lacks diverse perspectives.
  • Existing suicide prevention strategies can be overly focused on individual psychology and depoliticized.
  • There is a need for more creative and inclusive approaches to suicide studies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To articulate the concept of "thinking like a critical suicidologist."
