Intro Psych Summary - Introduction to Psychology 2

1. We had a class discussion on the morality of taking advantage of the benefits from medical research that may have been the fruit of illicit and unethical research. We know that the research done by Nazi doctors grew our medical knowledge by leaps and bounds. 
2. Darwinian theory became a starting point for the eugenics movement in psychology, and psychiatric technology such as lobotomy procedures, as well as the work of Margeret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was consulted by the Nazis. 
3. Postpartum depression, which begins as "baby blues", and could escalate to postpartum psychosis, where mom has active thoughts of harming self and babies/children. We need to be aware of basic signs of mental illness and be aware when family and friends may subtly be reaching out for help. We can be the one to save a life. 
4. The human person is already an integrated system, and that person needs both physical and behavioral health care. It is the system which is disintegrated and broken. It can't be fixed overnight, and so we need to put rubber to the road and work towards making the system better and better. The problems are complex, and often times, the system needs to fail to identify the problems, and find solutions. Need to look at not just the small picture, but big picture as well.
5. Psychology is an attempt to answer some of our society's most asked questions about ourselves, others, and the interaction between self and society.
