𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗜𝗣𝗔𝗡𝗧𝗦!

We are a group of fourth year psychology students at Tarlac State University, currently conducting our qualitative undergraduate thesis entitled, “𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲: 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝘁𝗵𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿-𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝗷𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀” as part of our course requirement in the course PSY 118: Psychological Research 2. This study aims to understand the experiences of former athletes on their career-ending injuries by bringing forth an avenue for these former athletes to narrate their personal experiences.

To be one of our participants, a carefully curated criteria is set, and prospective participants must be:
1. A former athlete of any sport, and any gender.
2. Currently residing at Region III or National Capital Region (NCR).
3. Former athlete who have experienced a physical career-ending injury during their rigid training or game matches at age 22 to 55.
4. Medically advised to stop playing, with zero intent to play same sport or any kind.
5. Former school varsity players, and athletes who have competed regionally or nationally.

Rest assured that the researchers will uphold the highest ideals of ethical standards to safeguard the well-being of all parties involved, most especially those of the participants. Adhering to 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝟭𝟬𝟭𝟳𝟯, otherwise known as the 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟮, all the collected information will be treated with utmost care, confidentiality, and will only be used within the premises of the study.

Part two: Friends, Pals, Buddies, Companions, Comrades 🧑🏼‍🤝‍🧑🏼

As Watson continued his journey, he met some people who inspired him along the way.

The combined influence of John Dewey, James Rowland Angell, and Jacques Loeb, led Watson to develop a highly descriptive, objective approach to the analysis of behavior, an approach he would later call behaviorism.

Part one: Friends, Pals, Buddies, Companions, Comrades 👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽

These individuals would be considered friends by John B. Watson because they impacted and shared the same theoretical approach, behaviorism.

John Broadus Watson, as we all know, was an American psychologist who promoted behaviorism as a psychological method. Behaviorism, often known as behavioral psychology, is a school of thought that centers on the premise that human and animal behaviors can be conditioned, or learned and reinforced, through experience.

Here are some of the people or individuals who were influenced by him, influenced him, and share similar psychological viewpoints.

After leaving academia for four decades and dedicating more than half of my life to experiments, proving my theories, and writing books as a behaviorist, the American Psychological Association awarded me a special award for my Distinguished Scientific Contribution.
I couldn't go up to the stage to accept the award because of my social anxiety and excitement, and I didn't want to cry in front of the crowd, so my wonderful son accepted it on my behalf.

Today, I will be conducting an experiment that I have carefully planned with the help of the second love of my life Rosalie, at Johns Hopkins University. I will also be having Little Albert as my guinea pig. Wish me luck!

The story of Douglas Merritte as John Watson's Little Albert has now been debunked as the researchers of MacEwan University published their research study entitled "Correcting the Record on Watson, Rayner, and Little Albert”. If that is so, who is the real Little Albert then?

I was fatigued when I got home from work. It was exhausting to spend the entire day discussing and teaching students about psychology and how behaviorists interpret it. My son William has a dog who recently gave birth. I considered calling them after Pavlov and other psychologists, such as Pavvy and Freud, but I'm not sure about the other puppies. Can anyone think of a name for them?

John Watson is popular in the field of behaviorism since he is its founding father. As you read the details below, you will learn more about these approaches and how Watson's work fits into them.

Behaviorism

John B. Watson was an American psychologist who complemented Freud's theory. According to him, behaviorism is the science of observable behavior. Only behaviors that can be observed, recorded, and measured are of real value to the study of humans or animals. Watson's theory was significantly influenced by the earlier classical conditioning experiments by Russian psychologist Ivan Pavlov and his now tarnished dogs.

Watson's Theory of Behavior discards the concept of a person's unconscious mental state because it is not observable and it just depends on the psychologist's particular interpretation. Watson sees this emphasis on subjective interpretation to be very unscientific and doesn’t help in understanding the behavior. He strongly believed that the child's environment is the factor that molds the child's behaviors over their genetic structures. Watson once said that he could take a dozen healthy kids and train any of them to be any kind of expert he wanted to be. For him, a child can be exposed to certain nurturing forces and be conditioned to become the type of person he wants to be.

Happy Learning psychmates!
