Quantum mechanics is a theory which tries to describe, and predict the behavior of physical systems. The theory was originally designed to make predictions about the behavior of sub-microscopic systems, like atoms and electrons, but since even large-scale systems are composed of atoms, quantum mechanics necessarily comprises a fundamental physical theory--a theory which attempts (at least in principle) to offer as complete an account as can be had of the nature and behavior of physical systems. ... The SchrÖdinger equation with the mystical wavefunction, which unfolds all quantum phenomen...

Why Study Intelligence. Implicit studies of intelligence have been at the heart of psychology for the last two decades or so (Flugel, 1947; Shafer, 1999 in Furnham, 2001).

Part 1 – Summary The Psychopathology of Everyday Life is Sigmund Freud's sixteenth work published, and the title is quite fitting for the context of the book. Freud begins by recalling an essay that he wrote in 1898 discussing the Psychic Mechanism of Forgetfulness. He goes on to use anecdotal evidence, highlighting the common occurrence of forgetting a specific name. He uses the Signorelli example to illustrate how a forgotten memory might be closely knit to a repressed one, therefore making it unattainable by conscious cognitive processes. He goes on to explain that the repressed ...
