Joyce Milton/Road to Malpsychia
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page book review of Joyce Milton's The Road to Malpsychia. In the parlance of author Joyce Milton, "malpsychia" means "bad psychology" and this is precisely what her analysis of 1960's humanistic psychology addresses. Specifically, Milton argues that prevalent psychological theories and related ideas culminated in the counter-culture of the 1960s. Milton focuses specifically on the theories of psychologists Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers, but she also addresses the influence of LSD proponent Timothy Leary and his colleague Richard Alpert, as well as others. In short, this book offers a detailed and critical description of the evolution of humanistic psychology in the twentieth century, while also raising questions about the influence of psychology on societal mores and ideals. As this suggests, the author's purpose is to discredit the field of humanistic psychology--actually, psychology in general--where it serves to promote secular or humanistic interests. The writer disagrees with Milton's premise and argues against it. No additional sources cited.

Ken Wilber’s “Integral Psychology”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the major concepts in Ken Wilber’s Integral Psychology. Ken Wilber’s “Integral Psychology: Consciousness, Spirit, Psychology, Therapy” (2000) includes a combination of various developmental psychological theories, -- “West and East, ancient and modern” to try and understand the “full spectrum” of the range of human consciousness. Through inclusion or integration of the various theories, Wilber develops a “brain-mind” theory that “does justice to both sides of the equation – the brain and the mind – because what follows can reasonably be expected to cover much of the ‘mind’ aspects that should be included, along with the ‘brain’ aspects derived from neuroscience, in order to arrive at any sort of sturdy and comprehensive model of consciousness”. Wilber’s work involves the discussion of holons, or hierarchical levels, or waves, which progress through three realms (prepersonal, personal and transpersonal) of development. The holons build on and yet are an interactive part of the other levels in development as well as including an integral relationship within the four-quadrant model representing phenomenon as relationships between the intentional, behavioral, cultural and social perspectives.

Leadership Characteristics: Learned, Innate or Both?
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing leadership traits and whether or not the traits can be learned, are innate or both. Tutorial suggestions are inserted throughout the paper in square brackets. Theories of leadership whether historical or modern day all seem to include certain elements some of which appear to be learned and can be taught and others which can only be described as innate traits. Characteristics needed for good leadership include the ability to motivate people within an organization, the ability to communicate the mission of the organization and the ability to promote positive team work in order to increase production among other elements. Regardless of the fact that these elements can be taught within programs and are sought in individuals within organization, traditionally exceptional leaders also possess a vision for the future and ways in which to apply that vision successfully and a great deal of charisma. The elements of vision and charisma may be more difficult to learn and may be described as innate. Leadership courses will continue to be taught and guidelines for successful leadership will continue to be published which will contain essentially elements necessary in today’s leaders and leaders who have learned and apply these guidelines will no doubt be successful. However, based on historical leadership studies, those leaders who excel beyond the others will not doubt possess learned skills but also have the advantage of the innate elements of charisma and vision as well.

Major Psychological Theories and the Cause and Effect of Oppression and Neglect in the African American Community
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing major psychological approaches in relation to the result of oppression and neglect on the African American community. Currently, the African American population within the United States has been found to have high levels of stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and high levels of self-destructive behavior. Psychologists and sociologists argue that the cause of generations of neglect within the educational and social systems and oppression may have led to these psychological problems. Using five major psychological approaches which include behaviorism, functionalism, psychoanalytical, structuralism and Gestalt, the differences in the application of the theories to the African American community basically show that in order to reverse the trend of these psychological and societal problems, mental health professionals and educators must be aware of the psychological factors unique to the African American community.

A 5 page paper discussing application
of Abraham Maslow's humanistic psychology to the needs of business. Maslow's theories may be
overstated in the belief that people are intrinsically good and intrinsically motivated to improve
themselves and their stations, but they have been found to be overwhelmingly useful in
organizational management and employee motivation enhancement. Successful application in
business depends on moving from one level to the next, however. As Maslow states, the qualities
of any level cease to be motivational once the individual achieves and sustains that level. Includes

Max Wertheimer's "Productive Thinking": Law Of Pragnanz
