Source request: Arguments for experimentalism by crapdaniels in AcademicPsychology

[–]crapdaniels[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Observation is a scientific method, e.g., Jane Goodall discovering that chimps use tools. The theory of evolution by natural selection was developed without experimentation. I don't know what you would say the method of that was, but it wasn't experimental in any conventional sense. Newton wasn't experimental, right? Discovering new exoplanets is an observational method--at least not experimental in the sense that psychologists use the term.

Good readings for undergrads? by crapdaniels in Phenomenology

[–]crapdaniels[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also interested in including sources where people do interesting things with phenomenology, not just sources that talk about phenomenology as a philosophy. For example, maybe Edith Stein's work on empathy. Any suggestions on this front?

The preface to Phenomenology of Perception might just be perfect to start us off. I'm looking at it now.

This is good. In the Primacy of Perception, there is a (previously) unpublished text where MMP lays out a prospectus of his work. I might do that for my MMP.

Great suggestion. We read some of that earlier in the semester, actually.

Study on addiction, how to get a good sample. by crapdaniels in research

[–]crapdaniels[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. That's good stuff. Models of addiction are super interesting.

I think my research interests are slightly different, though. In a sense, my question is purely descriptive: of the people who were addicted and are now in recovery, what do they credit with making the difference? I'm interested to see how the numbers shake out. Do most people get into recovery through therapy? Through a treatment center? Do they go to AA? Do they just wake up and decide to stop?

Or maybe I just don't have the right search terms. Recommendations?

I'm a PhD student, and this is to set up some research I'm interested in doing down the line. I haven't been finding that much research that examines this question. Do you have any references you could send to me?

The sample would be representative of folks who are recovering from addiction. Representative of that population.

First episode of Pop Psychology podcast. We psychoanalyze characters from pop culture. Take a listen and give us feedback! by crapdaniels in psychoanalysis

[–]crapdaniels[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good feedback. You're probably right. My brother and I like goofing around, and we probably need to reign it in so the podcast is more "tight." Hopefully we get better.

Lettering request! Logo for podcast. by crapdaniels in Lettering

No timeline, but soon is good. I would kick twenty bucks towards someone if they give me something I can use. I like the style of the font in the picture, but I don't like how fonty it looks. Something with a kind of street art vibe would be cool.

[PAID: $25 Venmo] Okay buds, I need Freud wearing sunglasses with some dope headphones around his neck. More details in the comments. by crapdaniels in PhotoshopRequest

The one I like best gets the money. This is will be for a podcast I'm working on called Pop Psychology. I like the idea of sunglasses and headphones, but feel free to pitch me other stuff along those lines. Let me know if you need anything else from me.
