Transference vs Countertransference
Transference: patient to therapist; people of the past that reminds you of the person in front of you
Countertransference: therapist to patient; the therapist sees a person from his or her past on the patient
- process by which patient’s recollection of circumstances at the time symptoms appeared has led those same symptoms to disappear
talking cure
- eruption of repressed thought / feeling when one word is substituted for another reveals an unacceptable unconscious wish
- evidence of role of unconscious in everyday life
Parapraxes
- vocational choice, selection of romantic partners, dreams, symptoms of psychiatric disorders - have meaning
- shaped by unconscious forces in dynamic relationship with one another, not randomly selected
Psychic determinism
- developmental successes / failures - central to evolution of adult characters and influential in pathogenesis of adult psychiatric disorder
- factors include traumas, subtle and repetitive forms of interaction between children and parents, children and siblings
Past is Prologue
Topographical Model of the Mind
Conscious
Preconscious
Unconcious
Structural Theory of the Mind
- Id - me only; present since birth
- Ego - me and others; arises only 2-3 months after birth
- Superego
Structural Theory of the Mind: Ego
- Conscious and Preconscious functions
- Logical and abstract thinking and verbal expression - Unconscious domain - Defense Mechanisms
- Executive organ of the psyche - controls motility, perception; contact with reality; the delay and modulation of drive expression

Id
Process:
Secondary Process (thinking) - in charge of all our higher mental process: Thinking, reasoning, problem solving, judgement, perception, learning
Non reflexive behavior: voluntary movement and coordination, anything we chose to do
Sense of identity and environment
Use of manipulation of Ego Defense Mechanisms
Development: Develops between birth and 2 weeks
Principle: Reality principle
Conflict: Rational (job is to try to maintain stability)
Ego
Process: Socialization (end product of socialization)

Erik Erikson
- did anthropological work with Indians

- formulated theory of human development covering entire span of life cycle : infancy -> old age
Erik Erikson
o Psychosocial theory of development
o Crucial steps in person’s relation with social world
o Based on interplay with biology and society
“Childhood and Society”
- development occurs in sequential, clearly defined stages
- each stage must be satisfactorily resolved for development to proceed smoothly
- if not, subsequent stages will reflect failure in the form of physical, cognitive, social, or emotional maladjustment

Integrity vs Despair
- Born in Switzerland – 1896
- Doctorate in Biology 22 yo interested psychology
- studied with Bleuler at Burgholtzli Psychiatric Hospital
- Similarity with Freud: theoretical system for the development of cognitive abilities (intellectual and perceptual development)
- Focus on how children and adolescents think and
acquire knowledge
JEAN PIAGET
- Study of the development of abstract thought on basis of an inherited or biological substrate
- Intelligent functioning that makes growth of abstract thought possible
- Progressive development of human knowledge
Genetic Epistemology
- extension of biological adaptation that has a logical structure
intelligence
- growth and development occur in stages, each of which is built on successful mastery of preceding stage
epigenesis
Jean Piaget: 3 Basic Components
- Schema (building blocks of knowledge)
- Adaptation processes that enable the transition from one stage to another (equilibrium,assimilation and accommodation)
- Stages of Development
- basic building block of intelligent behavior – a way of organizing knowledge
- as “units” of knowledge, each relating to one aspect of the world, including objects, actions and abstract (i.e. theoretical) concepts.
Schema
True or False
Piaget believed that newborn babies have a small number of innate schemas - even before they have had much opportunity to experience the world. These neonatal schemas are the cognitive structures underlying innate reflexes. These reflexes are genetically programmed into us.
True
process of learning and knowing that occurs in a predictable manner
COGNITIVE ORGANIZATION
- ability of person to adjust to and interact with environment
- result of 2 complementary processes : ASSIMILATION, ACCOMMODATION
adaptation
- taking in of new experiences through one’s own system of knowledge
- fitting external reality to the existing cognitive structure
- reality is assimilated
assimilation
- adjustment of one’s system of knowledge to the reality demands of environment
- occurs when a child adjusts his/her schema to
new information - At the lowest psychological level, accommodation refers to the gradual adaptation of the reflexes to new stimulus
conditions (conditioning or stimulus generalization) - At higher levels it refers to the coordination of thought patterns to one another and to external reality
Accommodation
- using an existing schema to deal with a new object or situation.
- process of incorporating new information into a pre-existing schema.
assimilation
- the force which moves development along
- occurs when a child’s schemas can deal with most new information through assimilation
- an unpleasant state of disequilibrium occurs when new information cannot be fitted into existing schemas (assimilation).
EQUILIBRATION
- an interiorized action which modifies the object of knowledge the essence of knowledge
- consists of joining objects in a class, to construct a classification
- it is a set of actions modifying the object, and enabling the knower to get at the structures of the transformation
- it is a reversible action
- it is never isolated
OPERATION
- specific cognitive structures with a behavioral pattern
- Exist in infants as perceptual-motor behavior patterns (e.g. Sucking, grasping reflex, seeing)
- All species inherit the ability to organize, what is organized is different for different species (Ex. Birds organize flying, human babies organize crawling)
Schemata
Factors for Cognitive Development
- Biological maturation
- Experience with the physical environment
- Experience with the social environment
- Equilibration
STAGES OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT
- SENSORIMOTOR STAGE (0-2yrs)
- PREOPERATIONAL THOUGHT (2-7yrs)
- CONCRETE OPERATIONS (7-11yrs)
- FORMAL OPERATIONS (11- end of adolescence)
- Child’s construction of mental schemata is totally
dependent on perceptions and bodily movements
Sensorimotor Stage (0 – 2 years) (Object permanence)
- Use of inborn motor and sensory reflexes (sucking, grasping, looking) to interact and accommodate to external world
Sensorimotor Stage: 0 - 2 months
Primary circular reaction - happens when by chance the infant experiences a new consequence of a motor act and tries to repeat the act
- coordinates activities of body with five senses;
- reality subjective; displays curiosity
Sensorimotor Stage: 2 - 5 months
Secondary circular reaction - seeks new stimuli in environment, anticipate consequences of behavior and act to change environment; intentional behavior begins
Sensorimotor Stage: 5 - 9 months
Signs of object permanence, concept that objects exist apart from itself, plays peekaboo, imitates novel behaviors
Sensorimotor Stage: 9 months - 1 year
Tertiary circular reaction - seeks new experiences, produces novel behaviors
Sensorimotor Stage: 1 - 1½ years
Symbolic thought - uses symbolic representations of events and objects; signs of reasoning; attains object permanence
Sensorimotor Stage: 1½ - 2 years
- 2 - 7 years
- Use of symbols & language more extensive
- Intuition more than reasoning
- No sense of cause and effect
- Things represented by function
- Immanent justice-punishment for bad deeds inevitable
Ex. if a child breaks 1 plate, walang difference when he/she breaks 10 plates; ang point, nakabasag parin sila
Preoperational Thought
(Preoperational Thought)
- “me” as center of universe
Egocentric thought
(Preoperational Thought)
- type of magical thinking, events occurring together are thought to cause one another
Ex. thunder causes lightning, feeling nila kulog ang
nagcause ng kidlat kasi malakas yung kulog; lucky
underwear pag may exam
Phenomenalistic casuality
(Preoperational Thought)
- tendency to endow physical events and objects with lifelike attributes (feelings, intentions)
- Ex. iniisip ng bata yung mga laruan niya din buhay
kaya pinapakain at kinakausap niya
Animistic thinking
