I hate study subjects...that's why I took none in high school.
One of my electives now (psychology) is a study subject. We have a test tomorrow.
Since I don't know how to study, I just make up mnemonic devices to know where
all the names and that came from xDD
For example:
(if you can't follow this don't worry, I'm just crazy)
In order to remember who pioneered structuralism, functionalism, behaviorism,
that-german-word-I-can't-pernounce-ism, and psychoanalatic psychology
I have come up with the following:
One of my favorite characters in Xenosaga; Wilhelm = Wilhelm Wundt
(and I know structuralism is first)
n/a
Balthazar versus Constantine = John Watson
(John was Constantine's first name, and the B in Balthazar is for Behavouralism.
n/a
Psychology = Sigmund Freud
(when most people think of psychology they think Sigmund Freud.
Psychoanalatic Psychology is the only thing left.)
Then for the two not availables (William James and Max Werheimur) I just think
of it alphabetically.
That's no good without knowing what order everything was founded in, so
I just think of it logically:
first you make a design (structure = structuralism)
then you figure out how it works (function = functionalism)
you them observe it working (behaviour = behaviouralism)
And then it's just all and none. All being whole, and whole being what that
German word means in English. Does your head hurt yet? xD
