1. PENGENALAN PSIKOLOGI
MINGGU 1

2. DEFINISI PSIKOLOGI
• Psikologi adalah kajian saintifik mengenai tingkah
laku dan proses kognitif
– Tingkah laku – overt/covert
– Proses kognitif – proses pemikiran/minda
termasuklah aktiviti menerima, memproses dan
mengeluarkan maklumat.
• Ahli psikologi berminat untuk mendapatkan
maklumat secara saintifik mengenai apa saja
yang manusia dan organisma hidupan lain fikir,
rasa dan lakukan

3. FALSAFAH DAN SAINS DALAM
PSIKOLOGI

4. TOKOH-TOKOH PENTING
• WILHEM WUNDT (1832-1920)
• Orang pertama menemui makmal
psikologi yang pertama (1879)
• Psikologi harus fokus terhadap
pengalaman atas sedar (conscious
experience).
• Menganalisis deria, perasaan dan
imaginasi dari akar umbi untuk
mengetahui ciri sebenar minda
manusia melalui kaedah
INTROSPECTION – tanya individu
supaya menjelaskan apa yang ada
dalam pemikiran melalui tugasan
yang diberi.

5. • WILLIAM JAMES (1842-1950)
• Penulis awal buku psychology –
Principles of Psychology
• Tidak setuju dengan Wilhem
Wundt kerana:
– minda tidak statik dan selalu
berubah,
– tujuan utama psikologi adalah
untuk memahami bagaimana
minda berfungsi dalam kehidupan
seharian, bagaimana minda
menyesuaikan dengan persekitaran
yang kompleks.

6. • JOHN B. WATSON
(1878-1958)
• Mengubah psychology
daripada kajian
terhadap minda kepada
kajian terhadap tingkah
laku overt.
• Memperkenalkan
pendekatan
Behaviorisme

14. PENGKHUSUSAN DALAM BIDANG
PSIKOLOGI
• CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY: Clinical psychologists assess and treat people with
psychological problems. They may act as therapists for people experiencing
normal psychological crises (e.g., grief) or for individuals suffering from chronic
psychiatric disorders. Some clinical psychologists are generalists who work with a
wide variety of populations, while others work with specific groups like children,
the elderly, or those with specific disorders (e.g., schizophrenia). They are trained
in universities or professional schools of psychology. They may be found working
in academic settings, hospitals, community health centers, or private practice. (See
also Counseling Psychology.)
• COUNSELING PSYCHOLOGY: Counseling psychologists do many of the same things
that clinical psychologists do. However, counseling psychologists tend to focus
more on persons with adjustment problems rather than on persons suffering from
severe psychological disorders. They may be trained in Psychology Departments or
in Schools of Education. Counseling psychologists are employed in academic
settings, community mental health centers, and private practice. (See also Clinical
Psychology.)

15. • DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY: Developmental psychologists
study how we develop intellectually, socially, and emotionally over
the lifespan. Some focus on just one period of life (e.g., childhood
or adolescence). Developmental psychologists usually do research
and teach in academic settings, but many act as consultants to day
care centers, schools, or social service agencies.
• EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY: Educational psychologists are
concerned with the study of human learning. They attempt to
understand the basic aspects of learning and then develop
materials and strategies for enhancing the learning process. For
example, an educational psychologist might study reading and then
develop a new technique for teaching reading. They are typically
trained in Schools of Education and employed in academic settings.
(See also School Psychology.)

16. • EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY: This area includes a diverse
group of psychologists who do research in the most basic
areas of psychology (e.g., learning, memory, cognition,
perception, motivation, and language). Their research may
be conducted with animals instead of humans. Most of
these psychologists work in academic settings.
• FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY: Forensic psychologists are
involved in analyzing crime evidence and aiding law
enforcement agencies in criminal investigations. See the
brochure from the Psychology and Law division of the
American Psychological Association, on this site, for useful
information.

17. • HEALTH PSYCHOLOGY: Health psychologists are concerned with
psychology's contributions to the promotion and maintenance of
good health and the prevention and treatment of illness. They may
design and conduct programs to help individuals stop smoking, lose
weight, manage stress, and stay physically fit. They are employed in
hospitals, medical schools, rehabilitation centers, public health
agencies, academic settings, and private practice.
• HUMAN FACTORS PSYCHOLOGY: Human Factors researchers study
the human/machine interface. They may help make appliances such
as cameras user-friendly, or they may do studies of safety-related
issues in the design of machinary, airplane controls and instrument
layouts, or they may do basic research on human perceptual and
motor abilities as they relate to the operation of machines,
computers, and other mechanical devices.

18. • INDUSTRIAL/ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY:
Industrial/organizational psychologists are primarily concerned
with the relationships between people and their work
environments. They may develop new ways to increase productivity
or be involved in personnel selection. They are employed in
business, government agencies, and academic settings.
• PHYSIOLOGICAL PSYCHOLOGY: Physiological psychologists study the
physiological correlates of behavior. They study both very basic
processes (e.g., how brain cells function) and more readily
observable phenomena (e.g., behavioral changes as a function of
drug use or the biological/genetic roots of psychiatric disorders).
Most are employed in academic settings.

19. • SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY: School psychologists are involved in
enhancing the development of children in educational settings.
They assess children's psychoeducational abilities and recommend
actions to facilitate student learning. They are typically trained in
Schools of Education and work in public school systems. They often
act as consultants to parents, teachers, and administrators to
optimize the learning environments of specific students. (See also
Educational Psychology.)
• SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY: Social psychologists study how our beliefs,
feelings, and behaviors are affected by other persons. Some topics
of interest to social psychologists are attitude formation and
change, aggression, prejudice, and interpersonal attraction. Most
social psychologists work in academic settings, but some work in
federal agencies and businesses doing applied research.
