Gastric Emptying01:16

Gastric Emptying

2.0K
Gastric emptying occurs when the stomach gradually releases chyme into the duodenum. When the stomach is distended, it triggers the release of gastrin, a hormone that promotes gastric acid secretion to aid in digestion. Additionally, stomach distension contributes to peristaltic waves that propel gastric contents toward the pyloric region. The gastroenteric reflex, on the other hand, primarily stimulates peristalsis in the intestines, facilitating the movement of contents further along the...

Standing Waves in a Cavity01:28

Standing Waves in a Cavity

1.2K
A household microwave and lasers are examples of standing electromagnetic waves in a cavity. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, it creates a cavity where standing waves are formed. The cavity between the two planes is analogous to a stretched string held at the points x = 0 and x = L. Here, the distance 'L' between the two planes must be an integer multiple of half of the wavelength. The wavelengths that satisfy this condition are given by:

Kubler Ross's Stages of Dying

547
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross significantly advanced psychology's understanding of the process of dying with her influential book, On Death and Dying (1969). She focused on studying terminally ill individuals and outlined five stages commonly experienced when coping with death: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
In denial, individuals reject the reality of their condition, often thinking, "This isn't true; I feel fine," as a way to protect themselves from...

Empathy02:34

Empathy

9.8K
Some researchers suggest that altruism operates on empathy. Empathy is the capacity to understand another person’s perspective, to feel what he or she feels. An empathetic person makes an emotional connection with others and feels compelled to help (Batson, 1991). Empathy can be expressed in several ways, including cognitive, affective, and motor.

Deindividuation00:57

Deindividuation

28.8K
Deindividuation is a form of social influence on an individual’s behavior such that the individual engages in unusual or non-normal behavior while in a group setting. Why? Because in these group settings, the individual no longer sees themselves as an individual anymore, disinhibiting their behavior and personal restraint.

Rocket Propulsion in Empty Space - I01:13

Rocket Propulsion in Empty Space - I

3.4K
The driving force for the motion of any vehicle is friction, but in the case of rocket propulsion in space, the friction force is not present. The motion of a rocket changes its velocity (and hence its momentum) by ejecting burned fuel gases, thus causing it to accelerate in the direction opposite to the velocity of the ejected fuel. In this situation, the mass and velocity of the rocket constantly change along with the total mass of ejected gases. Due to conservation of momentum, the...

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Philosophy

Background:

  • Early relational trauma can lead to an 'empty ego' state.
  • This emptiness is maintained by repetitive complexes stemming from dissociated affective experiences.
  • Dualistic consciousness, splitting subjectivity from objects, characterizes this state.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore clinical encounters with the 'empty ego' phenomenon.
  • To introduce 'healing void states' as a therapeutic concept.
  • To examine the integration of non-dual consciousness models in treating ego-related emptiness.

Main Methods:

  • Exploration of clinical case examples.
  • Conceptual analysis of ego-Self dynamics.
  • Integration of psychoanalytic theory with Eastern non-dual traditions.

Main Results:

  • Healing void states offer a pathway to dis-identify from traumatic representations.
  • Non-dual consciousness facilitates a unified experience, contrasting with dualistic ego-emptiness.
  • The healing void state bridges the ego-Self connection, aiding stuck therapeutic processes.

Conclusions:

  • Non-dual models, like Vedantic and Kashmir Shaivism, offer valuable frameworks.
  • A combined Vedantic-Jungian approach can bridge Eastern non-duality concepts with Western psychology.
  • This integration provides a transcendent means to treat experiences of emptiness stemming from trauma.
