For today's post I am going to talk about a test that psychologist use. There is a test named Rorschach. Psychologist use Rorschach inkblock to measure emotional strength.
The way to use Rorschach:
So it is a set of cards containing pictures if inkblock, that had been folded over to create a mirror picture. If you want to test this out you need to ask someone, "What does this look like?" You need to record the answer, and ask other people the question. See what they get? In this test it would say what they see.

For today's post, I am showing you one of Jean Piaget's theory's. This theory is about 4 Development Stages in Children (as shown in the title). Jean Piaget has done this experiment from stage 1: (0-2 years), stage 2: (2-7 years), stage 3: (7-11 years), stage 4: (11 and older, until to 19 years old). On top ↑ is an image of the 4 stages in the theory (. Also below are more depth information about the stages.
What I've learnt: In the first stage the babies (little children) would get more sensitive like moving objects and sucking them. In the second stage, I didn't know that they would often use "why?". For the third stage, they use more thinking as they get older. For the fourth and last stage, they have the ability to use hypothesize (brainstorm).
For today's post, I am going to post about the easiest way to brainstorm ideas. There is an app on Google Drive called Mindmup or Mindmap. I have also used it and it really helped me for the brainstorm. It is free and you only need to sign in. On the right is one of my old Mindmup that I have made about Komodo Dragon Facts. Try it its fun! I hope you like my post about Mindmup. Have a cool day!! Bye!!
For this post, we are finding out what is a Stroop Effect. Do you know or have you heard of Stroop Effect? Stroop Effect is one of the famous and widely used in Psychological tests. If you don't know what is a Stroop Effect, example if there is the word, Red, but the colour is Blue, so that is Stroop Effects. On the right is a photo of Stroop Effects. This is a good way to test your eyes and your brain. Also, it is a fun test to do and do it with your friends and family. Here is a link to a Stroop Effect Test. The thing to do is to ask what colour is this? Red Blue
I have tried this test on my classmate and hope you like it (don't judge it, please).
I hope you like my post about Stroop Effects. Have a cool day!! Bye!!
For this post, I had to research about a famous psychologist named Ivan Pavlov. Also, know why is he a famous psychologist?
Ivan Pavlov
His Early Life
Ivan Pavlov was born on 14 September, 1849 in a small village named Ryazan, Russia. His earliest studies were most focused on theology. He soon abandoned religious studies and devoted himself to the study of science.
Pavlov's primary interests were the study of psychology and natural sciences.
There had been a famous experiment that he had done on his dogs. Pavlov's experiment has played a critical role in the discovery of one of the most important concepts in psychology. Actually, his discovery was quite by accident.
How did this experiment happen?
Well, he trained his dog and when he rings the bell the dogs run to the food and eat their food. When Pavlov rings the bell the dogs know that the food is ready to eat. Pavlov's experiments worked well and he was noted as the Russian physiologist who went to win the 1904 Nobel Prize for his work studying digestive processes.
It is a scientific study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behaviour in a given context or mental characteristics or attitude of a person or group.
Psychology is a study of the mind and behaviour.
The mind is highly complex, and conditions that relate to it can be hard to treat.
Thought processes, emotions, memories, dreams, perceptions, and so on cannot be seen physically, like a skin rash or heart defect.
While physical signs of some mental health issues can be observed, such as the plaques that develop with Alzheimer's disease, many theories of psychology are based on observation of human behaviour.
A practising psychologist will meet with patients, carry out assessments to find out what their concerns are and what is causing any difficulties, and recommend or provide treatment, for example, through counselling and psychotherapy.
Psychologists may have other roles, too. They may carry out studies to advise health authorities and other bodies on social and other strategies, assess children who find it difficult to learn in school, give workshops on how to prevent bullying, work with recruitment teams in companies, and much more.
