Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion. Today, we will delve into Structuralism, one of the foundational schools of psychology.Wilhelm Wundt, often regarded as the father of psychology, established the first psychology laboratory at the University of Leipzig in 1879, marking the start of psychology as an experimental science. Edward B. Titchener, Wundt's student, brought Structuralism to the U.S., significantly developing its methods and theories. Structuralism, pioneered by Wundt and Titchener, played a crucial role in the early development of psychology. While its methods had limitations, its legacy endures in its contributions to psychological science. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity

Abstract: Outcome binding has long been understood as an illusion of timing perception, in which an action-effect is perceived as occurring earlier than it actually does. This illusion has been heavily investigated over the past two decades with regards to the mechanisms behind and potential applications. Here we present evidence in favour of understanding outcome binding as a spatial attentional effect, at least in part. In a series of 3 experiments, it was shown that an action-effect was preceded by a predictive attention shift in the classic Libet clock paradigm. The magnitude of attention shift predicted the size of outcome binding. When the attention shift was controlled for, binding also disappeared. Our study also calls for a reassessment of results obtained from the clock-like method in mental chronometry dating back to Wundt, as attention may well be a critical confounding factor in the interpretation of the results from these studies.

Origins of psychology: Wundt, introspection and the emergence of Psychology as a science.
Thank you for listening to another episode of DWP! The first installment on my mind control series talks about the early stages of modern psychology created by Wilhelm Wundt. His idea was that man was an animal and rather than studying the mind or the soul, psychologists began looking into brain science and why it works the way it does. He recruited many bright minds in the late 1800s and those men went on to found and lecture at many Ivy League schools with a focus on the Prussian schooling method. It was in this fashion that the early stages of mind control and indoctrination in school began. At least 4 more episodes coming as I continue reading “Mind Control, World Control: The Encyclopedia of Mind Control” by Jim Keith which I highly recommend!

Freud, Wundt, Skinner, Maslow; son nombres que definen escuelas en la historia de la psicología como ciencia y disciplina académica. Pero particularmente nos llama la atención la rama conductista y la idea de una "caja negra". Así como Freud dió forma al psicoanálisis, los conductistas definieron el comportamiento humano como un proceso operacional y conceptualizan los estímulos que recibe una persona (input) con el comportamiento como respuesta a ese señuelo (output). Por eso hoy nos dimos la tarea de experimentar, una vez más, y con la ayuda de una académica de confianza, la incomparable Profe Pau, colocamos todos los secretos más bajos que nos contaron en una pequeña caja negra, explorando uno a uno para dar un análisis puramente empírico. Si quieres tomar nuestra palabra como un veredicto final acerca de si eres buena o mala persona, ve a terapia, a un psicólogo, no seas flojo.

At the start of the 19th century, the field we now call psychology was still the branch of philosophy that studied the soul. How did psychology come to define itself as a separate area of inquiry, and how did it come to be a science? In Wundt, Avenarius and Scientific Psychology: A Debate at the Turn of the Twentieth Century (Palgrave MacMillan 2019), Chiara Russo Krauss considers the conceptual foundations of psychology as a science in the conflicting views of Wilhelm Wundt and Richard Avenarius. Wundt established the first psychology lab but continued to see psychology as a science of self-observation, while the philosopher Avenarius embraced the emerging materialistic perspective in which the same physical methods that had just been successfully applied to explaining life could be used to explain conscious experience. Russo Krauss, a researcher at the University of Naples Federico II, makes clear the major role that Avenarius played in the shaping of psychology into the science that it is today.

There is this moment in Beethoven’s 6th Symphony that just gets me.The strings cross down and up. The trumpets move in response, the horns sit and pedal, the woodwind goes high, and ten minutes of tension and pacing blooms into this magnificent passage.Duhhh duh duh duuuh, daaah dah dah duuuuh.I’m not doing Ludwig justice. But if you listen to the Ken Nagano and Montreal Symphony Orchestra recording, you can even fast forward to 10 minutes 32 if you want to be cheeky and enjoy the glory of that passage without all the build-up. I know this because my Spotify tells me I’ve listened to nothing but Beethoven’s 6th symphony for about the last month.As you’re probably aware, music streaming services are the way most people my age listen to music these days. It’s just so easy. You can access any artist you want, any recording you want, without the need to fiddle around with a CD or a disk, or dare I mention it a vinyl record and a needle.Sure, the digital age might suck the romance out of playing your favourite album. There’s no tactile connection. No sleeve to read. No shelves of music for your friends to peruse. But for me, it’s a small cost for the freedom to explore the entire planet of music for 10 bucks a month.I have friends who leave it all to the algorithm. Spotify works out what they like, and compiles playlists of music that it figures will excite them or challenge them, or entertain them in some way. Imagine all the artists who might never be discovered otherwise. But if I’m totally honest, I don’t do that. I have this weird thing where I get one song in my head and I can’t play anything else for weeks on end. Am I a music snob? Not at all. For some reason, I’ve been kind of obsessed over the last few weeks with Romantic era classical composers. But before that I was thrashing System of a Down, the Armenian-American heavy metal band who write political songs about drug policy and Iraq. Before that it was the Mint Chicks, Crazy Yes Dumb No? Before that… a Spanish pop artist called Rosalia. Before that, Jamie XX, Rebel Rebel by Bowie. For some reason I play these songs many hundreds of times. I put Spotify on repeat. The tracks buzz through me before I go to sleep, as soon as I wake up. They’re the theme music to my day.Duhhh duh duh duuuh, daaah dah dah duuuuh.And as it turns out, I’m not the only one. Psychologists have recently studied why we listen to music on repeat. Obviously human beings are wired to appreciate familiarity. Radio stations have always known that. The Kiwi DJ Zane Lowe would even play songs twice in a row on air, sometimes. And be honest… when you go to see your favourite band in concert, would you rather they played their greatest hits, or their new experimental music?What’s interesting about the study though, is just how extreme we can be with our favourites. Even in this digital age, where you can choose from almost every piece of music on earth, 60 percent of the study participants admitted that if they really like a song at any one moment, they’ll listen to it at least 4 times on repeat.It follows something called the Wundt curve. It’s a bell curve. So the more you enjoy a song, the more you listen to it, the more you enjoy it, the more you listen to it, until you reach peak saturation,Duh duh duh duuuuuh duh duh duuuuh duh duh.And just as quickly as you become obsessed, you drop it.You move on from Ludwig van to Frank Ocean, and then Muse. The best three piece alternative rockers on Earth. Oh how Matt Bellamy’s falsetto sores, lingers, and haunts. Play it again! Play it again.Honestly it wouldn’t surprise me if after this month, I don’t listen to Beethoven’s 6th symphony for a decade.

Co-Hosts: Alyson, Cory, Mandrik Topics: A seemingly comical entry-point into dark territory: Texas GOP Declares: "No More Teaching of 'Critical Thinking Skills' in Texas Public Schools" which quotes the party platform: "We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student's fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority." So what is Outcome-Based Education? John Taylor Gatto: A SHORT ANGRY HISTORY OF AMERICAN FORCED SCHOOLING The BEHAVIORAL TEACHER EDUCATIONAL PROJECT outlines specific teaching reforms to be forced on the country, unwillingly of course, after 1967. "According to the BEHAVIORAL TEACHER EDUCATIONAL PROJECT, post modern schooling would focus, (I quote directly from the document), "on pleasure cultivation and interpersonal relationships and other attitudes and skills compatible with a non-work world". It makes sense of course, doesn't it? That irresponsible semi-illiterate people could not be trusted with much responsibility so in the new change agentry schooling, which is called for by this national teacher training document, the teacher is a therapist, translating the prescriptions of the social psychologists into practical action research in the classroom." Context: Changes in the 1960s: motivations and results Civil rights and opposition to Vietnam Government responds: -Poverty and inner-city desperation pacified with welfare -War on Drugs against mind expansion -centralization and standardization of education Had the true controlling potential of school had been dormant up to this point?

New Thinking: Advances in the Study of Human Cognitive Evolution
A very wise person of our acquaintance once said, 'Read old books to get new ideas'. Here, we pursue the ideas presented in old books by Lev Vygotsky and George Herbert Mead as a means to account for the differences in social life between human and non-human primates and, by extension, their cognition. We consider the contrasting perspectives of Vygotsky and Mead on the links between thought and language, and relate these to subsequent developments in the study of animal cognition, and the emergence of the fields of embodied and distributed cognition. We then use this synthesis to argue that, as Wundt originally suggested, the study of social life must be fundamentally social and situated, and cannot be a laboratory endeavour focused solely on processes within individuals. We use developments in social network analysis (specifically a new formalisation of social networks, which can be presented as multi-dimensional mathematical objects, 'tensors') to explore the possibilities of a new approach to comparative social cognition. This approach recognizes that sociality and behaviour are constitutive of cognition and not simply its visible manifestation, and emphasizes that there is no such thing as a social brain in isolation, but a complex nexus of brain, body and world. Presented by Louise Barrett, Peter Henzi and David Lusseau (Psychology, University of Lethbridge, Canada).
