It is often claimed that psychology began in 1879 when Wilhelm Wundt (1832—1920) opened his laboratory at the University of Leipzig. Wundt had been trained to practise medicine, had studied physiology, and had served as a laboratory assistant to the great Helmholtz. He also held an academic position in philosophy. Wundt was a scientist-philosopher with an interest in such psychological processes as sensation, perception, at­tention, word associations, and emotions.

Although others might be credited with founding psychology as a sep­arate science (for example, Helmholtz), Wundt gets credit for getting psychology recognized as a science. In fact, Wundt wrote in the preface of the first edition of his Principles of Physiological Psychology (1874): "The work I here present is the attempt to mark out a new domain of science." Clearly, Wundt's intention was to define the parameters of a new science.

Additionally, it is no accident that psychology began in Germany. Experimental physiology was well established in Germany, which was not the case in France or England. Biology and physiology were stressed in Germany, while physics and chemistry were stressed in France and En­gland. In short, the climate was perfect in Germany for the emergence of the new science of psychology.

For Wundt, psychology was the scientific study of the mind. Under carefully-controlled laboratory conditions, Wundt and his assistants test­ed and retested his hypotheses. The work performed in Wundt's laboratory focused on the discovery of basic elements of thought. Wundt wanted no less than to systematically describe the basic elements of mental life. Because the psychologists in Wundt's laboratory were mostly interested in describing the structure of the mind and its operations, Wundt's approach to psychology is referred to as structuralism (the school of psychology founded by Wundt that studied the mind by attempting to break mental activity into its component parts). The primary method used by structur­alists to study the mind is introspection. Introspection involves describing mental responses to conscious experience in great detail. For example, if one of Wundt's assistants was introspecting on an apple, it would not be enough to say that it was red and shiny. Instead, one would have to de­scribe the actual sensations experienced and the feelings elicited by those experiences.

In the early 20th century the number of psychologists increased rapid­ly. Structuralism was criticized on many grounds, specifically its restricted definition of psychology and its introspective method. A number of new schools of psychology developed early in the 20th century, usually in op­position to a point of view or approach stressed by one or more existing schools.

Основные понятия и положения темы.

Изучение темы «Careers in Psychology» позволяет студентам увидеть роль психолога в современном обществе. Психология в системе современного человекознания занимает промежуточное положение, находясь, по словам Константинова, «ровно посередине между естествознанием и обществознанием». Такое положение психологии делает ее связующим звеном между этими науками, делает ее наукой, которую, согласно точке зрения Пиаже, можно рассматривать не только как продукт всех других наук, но и как возможный источник их развития. Синтезируя достижения общественных, естественных и технических наук, психология выступает в роли одной из узловых научных дисциплин, разрабатывающих проблемы человека.

Грамматический материал «Согласование времен в главном и придаточном предложениях» отрабатывается на материале упражнений, предлагаемых в учебнике и взятых из дополнительного сборника Eckersley and Macaulay “Brighter Grammar”.

Правило согласования времен в английском сложноподчиненном предложении касается только придаточных дополнительных предложений и выражается в том, что если в главном предложении сказуемое стоит в прошедшем времени, то и в придаточном дополнительном предложении сказуемое должно стоять также в одном из форм прошедшего времени, причем:

а) если действие придаточного дополнительного предложения совпадает по времени с действием главного предложения, то в придаточном предложении употребляется Past Simple или Past Continuous

 

I thought (that) you were ill. Я думал, что вы больны.

I thought that your parents lived in Moscow. Я думал, что ваши родители живут в Москве.

 

I thought that you were examining Я думал, что вы осматриваете
your patients at 9 o’clock. ваших больных в 9 часов.

 

Сравните с русским языком, где два одновременных действия в прошлом выражаются прошедшим временем в главном предложении и настоящим временем в дополнительном придаточном предложении:

 

I said that I worked here. Я сказал, что работаю здесь.

 

б) если действие придаточного дополнительного предложения предшествовало действию главного предложения, то в придаточном предложении употребляются Past Perfect или Past Perfect Continuous, и оба предложения переводятся прошедшим временем.

 

He said that he had been seriously ill. Он сказал, что он тяжело болел.

He said that his parents had lived in Moscow. Он сказал, что его родители
жили в Москве.

 

в) если действие, выраженное сказуемым придаточного дополнительного предложения, относится к будущему времени по отношению к действию, выраженному сказуемым главного предложения в прошедшем времени, то сказуемое придаточного предложения должно стоять в форме так называемого будущего в прошедшем (Future in the Past) – времени, употребляющемся в английском языке только при согласовании времен:

I thought (that) I would go to the Crimea.

I knew (that) they would be working at the time.

He was sure (that) he would have examined all patients by 2 o’clock.

CAREERS IN PSYCHOLOGY

There are many careersin psychology. Psychology includesboth research, through which we learn fundamental things about human and animal behaviour, and practice, through which that knowledge is ap­plied in helping people to solve problems. Psychology is an extremely varied field. Psychologists conduct research, serve as consultants, diag­nose and treatpeople, and teach future psychologists and other types of students. They test intelligenceand personality.

As scientists,psychologists use scientific methods of observation, experimentation, and analysis. But psychologists also need to be cre­ative in the way they apply scientific findings.

Psychologists are frequently innovators,inventing new approaches to people and societies. They develop theories and test them in their re­search. As they collect new information, these findings can be used by practitionersin their work with clients and patients.

As practitioners psychologists work in laboratories, hospitals, court­rooms,schools and universities, prisons, and corporate offices. They work with business executives, performers,and athletesto reducestress and improve performance.They advise lawyers on juryselection and cooperate with educators on school reform. Immediately following a disaster,such as a plane crashor bombing, psychologists help victimsand bystanders recover from the shock of the event.

Involved in all aspects of our world, psychologists must keep up with what is happening around us. When you're a psychologist, your educa­tion never ends.

Most psychologists say they love their work. They say that they have a variety of daily tasks and the flexibility of their schedules.

The study of psychology is a good preparation for many other professions. Many employers are interested in the skills of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data, and their experience with statistics and experimental design.

Psychology is a very diverse field with hundreds of career paths. We all know about caring for people with mental and emotional disorders. Some other jobs like helping with the design of computer systems are less well-known. What all psychologists have in common is an interest in the minds and behaviors of both humans and animals.

 

Neuropsychology.

Neuropsychology attempts to document and understand the relationship between the nervous system and cerebral and mental functions.

The field studies how our brain and nervous system act upon and are affected by processes of thought such as language, memory, emotion, and perception.

Clinical neuropsychology is one of the largest specialties in the field of psychology today.

Clinical neuropsychology is a subfield of psychology concerned with the cognitive function of individuals with neurological and psychiatric disorders. Neurological assessment examines cognitive function in the broadest sense, including the behavioral, emotional, social and functional status of patients. Assessment is made with neuropsychological tests and includes patient’s history, observation, findings from neuroimaging and other medical procedures. Clinical neuropsychology requires knowledge of neuroanatomy, neurobiology, neuropharmacology.
