Perspectives+of+Psychology+Group+Work+and+presentation

Today you will work in groups to study **one** of the following 6 contemporary psychological perspectives:

Cognitive Biological Social Cultural Behavioral Humanistic Psychodynamic

You must research and present the following information about your assigned perspective to the class: 1. What would a psychologist with this perspective say is the reason for certain human behaviors? 2. Why would a psychologist with this perspective say that a person might be more likely to give money to beggars? 3. If someone had a psychological problem, what might a psychologist with this perspective suggest as a possible solution?

Note: You can find information on each of the above perspectives in your textbook on pages 28-31

Once your group has answered all of the above questions you will each find someone from another group and share information with one another.

As you learn, take notes on each of the perspectives so that you can answer the above 3 questions for each of the 6 perspectives.

Before you leave you will choose one perspective that you agree with most and defend your answer.
