psychologists conduct research on subjects such as human diversity and ethical issues pertaining

psychology suits individuals who wish to work in a social setting and prefers training in
vocational psychology

Educational Psychology
Educational Psychology is the study of practices and behaviors of people in a learning
process
...
Educational psychology studies the mental
activities of students in the light of psychological principles
...
Educational Psychology provides a framework for looking at students, the learning
process and learning situation, it is concerned with the study of how students learn and how
teachers can help them to learn effectively
...
Research in educational psychology is
designed to answer questions such as: How do people learn? What motivates them to learn? And
what factors interfere with learning? Educational psychologists, like their counterparts in other
fields of psychology, are employed in a variety of settings (Elliott, 2000)
...
Other educational psychologists are employed by primary and
secondary schools, in which case they may work directly with students (individually or in
groups) to help them overcome problems related to their education

separate notebook

Techniques I should try (Effective Reading) –

reading

Disinterest
I believe that there are times when I am not interested in the subject or study material I
build up disinterest
...
This directly leads to the final grade of my
34
WORKBOOK FOR ASSIGNMENT 1 TO 9
subject as I don’t put in my hundred percent effort in doing my best
...
Studying together with a group of
friends on the subject would also build interest towards it
...
If the environment is too noisy and has a lot of distractions occurring I would
definitely be disinterested in my study materials and would keep postponing my work
...
This environment should have no noise or people, comfortable
temperature and the lighting should be average where it is not too dark or too bright
...
One of the main things that should be
avoided is sitting in sofas, beds or any other item that gives you too much comfort
...
When a person doesn’t manage time and organize themselves they
begin to lose interest and liking towards the subject
...
I always end up waiting till the last
moment and then cramp up all the material
...
Apart from managing your time efficiently one should also
35
WORKBOOK FOR ASSIGNMENT 1 TO 9
know how to organize them and use the right skills to study
...
When that happens, you tend to lose interest in the matter
as you don’t know where and what to study and it is all one big mess

When this happens, automatically any person would lose
interest in the matter (http://www

ASSIGNMENT 9
1) Video –Forensic Psychology 90 minutes lecture
a) How does the interaction of a psychologist with a client seeking mental health help differ
when the psychologist is a forensic psychologist?
Forensic psychologist is the intersection between psychology and the criminal justice
system, these psychologist normally observe behavior or build a rapport with the client without
providing treatment or therapy
...
Also before the punishment is given they check whether
the client is in good mental condition and they do not build any personal relationship with the
witnesses (http://www
...
com/watch?v=VsXGwSZazwA )
...
Forensic psychologists meet three types of civil cases which are family evaluation cases,
independent medical evaluations and testamentary capacity
...
Though above two examples are
seemed so regular base situations, there are some complicated situations arise time to time
...
That is when forensic
psychologist gets involved in
...
d)
...
Criminal cases are the most crucial area in forensic psychology
...
Basically psychologist evaluate the
mental status of their client at the time the crime took place (e
...
; weather he was suffering from
mental illness, drugs, emotional state)
...
In many occasions, the end results mainly depend on
forensic psychologists
...
Further, time is a limited
factor; they have to provide it very efficiently and quickly
...
For example by carrying out different psychological base interviews and by asking those
to imagine the situation in which the crime scene takes place over and over again even with
small details such as weather and room temperature that was present during the time of the
crimes and so on

a) What type of psychological training is best to become a sports psychologist?
There are two ways of becoming a sports psychologist
...
Graduate in physical education or kinesiology,
is another way of becoming a sports psychologist
...
Therefore, all the clinical and counseling psychologists should
have additional physical and kinesiology knowledge to become a good sport psychologist
...
The best type of psychological training is to first become a qualified psychologist and
then to specialize in the area of sports
...
This program does not certify
people as ‘psychologists’ but instead people who are already qualified psychologists who are
certified receive the title of certified consultant
...
b) What type of experience or specific skills should you have?
It is said to be that sports psychologists develop their skills in areas specific to their field
...
According to Erica Packard, there are four major skills that make skillful

participation, eating disorders, substance abuse and weight-management (Packard, 2007)
...
Forensic psychologists have enjoyed steady job growth over the last years

Jobs working with attorneys, courts, and legislators will see
the largest increases

Forensic psychologists with
doctorate degrees will have more opportunities while those with bachelor’s degrees will find it
nearly impossible to specialize (http://www
