Approaches to consciousness.
Berkeley, CA : Thinking Allowed Productions, c1992
(ca. 120 min.)
A series of four interviews conducted by Jeffrey Mishlove on problems
of consciousness. In "The evolution of consciousness" Robert Ornstein
suggests that the mind is composed of many subroutines that he refers
to as a "squadron of simpletons." Self-mastery requires orchestrating
these "simpletons" to work as a team. "The nervous system and the soul"
deals with the dramatic, musical and mathematical qualities of the soul
as they are available even to the mentally retarded and those with other
neurological defects. Oliver Sacks maintains that our conventional view
of awareness keeps us from appreciating the unique talents of those with
Tourette's syndrome and other disorders. In "Working with comas" Arnold
Mindell discusses the unique methods he has developed for working with
individuals in comatose states. Using the techniques of process psychology
he is able to find channels into the minds of comatose individuals that
allow him to establish communication. In "The art of psychotherapy," Irvin
D. Yalom discusses his novel When Nietzsche wept, which highlights the
existential issues of human consciousness which are the basis of his own
therapeutic approach. The soul-searching self-examination of the philosopher
Nietzsche is contrasted with the methodical approach of Joseph Breuer,
a renowned physician and pioneer psychotherapist. NOTE Each program ca.

Part of a 26-part introductory course in psychology that offers an overview

to understand mental processes at the level of the brain's functioning
and not merely from information-processing models and theories. It relies
heavily on an empirical analysis of what is happening in the brain, and
where, when a person thinks, reasons, decides, judges, encodes information,
recalls information, learns, and solves problems. Program 26 discusses
how culture shapes our thinking, feeling and actions. Cultural psychology
integrates cross-cultural research with social and personality psychology,
anthropology, and other social sciences. Its main new perspective is centered
on how cultures construct selves and other central aspects of individual
personality, beliefs, values, and emotions--much of what we are and do.
This area has become more important in both psychology and American society
with the globalization of our planet, increasing interaction of people
from different cultural backgrounds, and emerging issues of diversity.
