Approach of Psychology

Approach of Psycgology consists of:

Behavioral Approach

Behavioral approach, basically behavior is the response to the stimulus that comes. Simply can be described in the S - R model or a Stimulus - Response link. This means that behavior is like a reflex with no mental work at all.

The Cognitive Approach

The cognitive approach emphasizes that behavior is a mental process, in which the individual (organism) is active in capturing, assessing, comparing, and responding to stimuli before reacting. Individuals receive stimulus and then perform mental processes before giving reaction to the stimulus that comes. Psychoanalysis approach The Psikoanalisa approach developed by Sigmund Freud. From the 1890s until his death in 1939, an Austrian doctor named Sigmund Freud developed a method of psychotherapy known as psychoanalysis.

Freud's understanding of mind was based on methods of interpretation, introspection, and clinical observation, and focused on resolving subconscious conflicts, mental tensions, and other psychological disorders. Sigmund Freud believes that the lives of individuals are largely controlled by the subconscious. So much behavior is based on things that are not realized, such as desire, impulse, or encouragement. Theories about Psychoanalysis apart from being very famous, are also very controversial. This is mainly because his theory deals with topics such as sexuality and the subconscious. These topics were still considered very taboo at the time, and Freud gave the catalyst to discuss the topic openly in civilized societies. In addition, many people who reject the theory that is considered degrading human dignity.

Phenomenological approach

This phenomenological approach is more concerned with the subjective experience of the individual because the behavior is strongly influenced by the individual's view of himself and his world, the concept of himself, his self-esteem and all things concerning his awareness or actualization. This means seeing a person's behavior is always associated with a phenomenon about himself.
