Ideas for my last project paper, in psychology
    #18824210 - 09/10/13 04:48 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Hey all! I'm a psych major and about to graduate soon if i don't fail or drop. I'm on my last two classes to finish the psych requirements and was wondering if anybody can help me brainstorm a topic that would be worth writing a ten page research paper about.

thanks, and sorry if this doesnt't relate to the essence of the forum, the topics on the first page seem to be talking mostly about sociology and philosophy,

thanks

Well I'm a second year student in psych. If some teacher were to ask me what I really wanted to write would be the neural effects of prescriptions such as Zoloft or xanax and how misdiagnosis can cause a larger problem.

Personally, I have a vendetta towards big pharma and I'll be damned if I don't illegally cure some people with "bad" drugs.

The only thing about Chemistry I like is all the psychedelics that come from it.

The only reason I study Psychology is to have a legitimate excuse to enjoy Chemistry. :tongue2:

thanks. this is paper is based on the history of psychology, but to not just cite random changes in history that have occured over time, i have to come with a thesis/statement that i will have to support empirically.

i will consider your suggestion.

Well then, why didn't you say so :smile: Start with the fact that this is the "devil's" work almost like opening up a cadaver back 300 years ago or so. The psych 10 horrible psych studies that everyone knows (more like 3, including the Harvard one about prison guards and that other one where people weren't actually being shocked but were given orders to shock people, and the one about monkeys and the wire mother that had comfort/food) can be a huge basis of how a science has grown with human consciousnesses.

Obviously a good thesis will just say, "Shit's changed in 200 years, here's how". EXACT QUOTE.

Btw who is that woman in that picture you got there?

I'll throw at you what I'm reading right now.

Since the paper is within the context of the history of psych, you could discuss the different models (Freud's hydraulic model, behavioralism, cognitivists, humanists, etc), the (non)role of emotion in each, and how these conceptualizations have informed the way we teach children (traditional iq/public school curriculum/reading, writing & arithmetic vs emotional intelligence/montessori curriculum/self-awareness & soft skills).


That's an easy 10 pages. Maybe like 15.

I would also recommend looking at R.D Laing, a very interesting approach, which, to have a firmer opinion on, I would have to do some more research myself.
