UNDERSTANDING PSYCHOLOGY: RESEARCH IN CONTEXT

This DVD, which consists of five short videos, has been designed to help with the difficult task of integrating science and research. The idea is to bring to life some of the more abstract and complex issues in research by contextualising them in accessible, easy to understand examples. For instance, we see the cycle of science illustrated with Naughty Teddy's challenge to Piaget's theory of conservation, a record producer using descriptive statistics to help him chose between two rival rock bands and we follow a lonely heart dating study to see different types of data meet their ideal pie chart, line graph and bar chart partners.

    UNDERSTANDING PSYCHOLOGY: EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH METHODS

    This DVD looks at attractiveness research with young people. What variables affect a person¡¦s perception of another and can it be manipulated? Do the findings remain the same in both laboratory and field experiments? Using materials from the two experiments we explore some of the issues common to all experimental methods: demand characteristics, ethical issues and reductionism. What is the future of experimental methods in Psychology?

    Review
  • ¡§The experiment has a well chosen hypothesis that will appeal to students and is straightforward; enabling them to understand the basic principles of the experimental design together with the advantages and disadvantages of the two settings. The terms used in research methods are well illustrated and explained and the use of the pause button will allow the teacher to emphasise the essential terminology¡K. Many students have a mental anathema to Research Methods and this friendly video should make the teaching of the topic a little easier.¡¨ - John Peters ATP Review

This DVD explores the reliability of eyewitness testimony and what this can tell us about the nature of memory itself. It also examines the concept of schemas and the nature of constructive memory. Using witnesses' evidence it illustrates the effect of leading questions and planting false information. It concludes by looking at three ways to improve eyewitness testimony: hypnosis, police reconstructions and the cognitive interview.

    APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY: OBEDIENCE AND ETHICS

    Conformity is essential to social life. But behind the familiar order of everyday life lurk some uncomfortable truths. Psychological experiments have shown that our desire to conform can lead us into mistrusting our own experiences, turning a blind eye to the suffering of others, and even inflicting harm on others. But these findings come at a price - the possible harm to those being studied. Should psychologists be doing this type of research? This programme explores some of the key ethical issues arising from psychological research into obedience and conformity. It is divided into three self-standing sections: Obedience, Ethics in Action and Ethics Rule OK?

    This DVD begins by looking at what psychology is, how it differs from common sense and the questions it asks about human behaviour. It then explores some of the areas where psychologists have looked for answers to these questions: in the human brain (biological), the unconscious (psychodynamic) and the environment (behaviourist).

    FLOW: PSYCHOLOGY, CREATIVITY, & OPTIMAL EXPERIENCE

    By Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

    For more than 30 years, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced CHICK-sent-me-high-ee) has studied states of "optimal experience"--those times when we report feelings of deep concetration and fulfillment--when we transcend our ordinary consciousness, and become so completely involved that we lose our senses of time and self. In this state, we are at the peak of our abilities. In this state, we are in Flow.

    Csikszenthmihalyi's theory of Flow and his seminal work on creativity have revolutionized modern psychology, the social sciences, and even corporate management.

    Now, join host Howard Gardner (Multiple Intelligences theory) as he leads your students on the intellectual journey through the life and mind of Mihaly Csikszenthmihalyi.

    From war-torn Italy to a chance encounter with Carl Jung to a swimming accident in Hawaii that would catalyze the formation of "positive psychology," Mihaly Csikszenthmihalyi's fascninating story charts the course of a sweeping intellectual adventure. It is a story that plots decades of insights and breakthroughs that would ultimately crystallize in the theory of Flow, and his definitive treatise on creativity.

    Review
