Recommended: The role of biology in psychology

One of the most significant was definitely having a child. Of course there are less physical changes from my own aspect considering I am not the mother, but as the father there is an entire set of mental and emotional changes you go through and it has definitely changed my life entirely. This is one of the most influential moments of my life and now that I am reflecting on it I am able to see aspects of psychology that were apparent during this event. I believe this experience shows traits of both the psychodynamic and neuroscience perspectives. Having your first child causes your body to start using instincts and behaviors that you hadn’t otherwise until that point as well as causing you to feel many different emotions all at once. The psychodynamic

  • Childhood Contradictions

    3199 Words  | 7 Pages

    1. Memories from my childhood are scarce and cloudy at best. Everything is distorted and it always seems like everyone is bigger than you, in more ways than one. From what I do remember, a major player in my development as a child was the overwhelming feeling of confusion. More times than not, I was confused by at least one of many things (authority, my own identity, physical, mental and emotional changes, etc). A child's confusion is due to the massive series of contradictions that is childhood itself. In Lewis Carroll's novels Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass , the meaning of childhood and what it is to be a child and literally live in a child's world takes on an entirely different meaning than ever before. Similarly, the computer game based on the novels, American McGee's Alice , gives an interesting perspective on the concept of childhood and the struggle to maturity.
