Psychology

A young man is smoking at an underground station. When an employee informs him that smoking is forbidden, the young man attacks and seriously injures him. How does this happen? Is he immature or perhaps did he grew up in an environment where violence is common? Is he emotionally disturbed, does he suffer from subconscious childhood conflicts or is there something wrong with his brain? Rolf Reber introduces psychology, its basics and methods by using concrete case studies. From behaviourism, cognitive psychology, brain research, psychoanalysis, personality and social psychology to the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders, he covers all relevant aspects of the science of behaviour and the soul.
