After reading the first chapter of psychology I was pretty blow away by it. I never know all they different types of psychologist and what they really do or even study. To me psychology was always about the weird stuff and not all the pretty cool stuff they some psychologist really do. Like I never realized that there are so many different areas of study within psychology. In the first chapter they talk about the schools of psychology and there are 6 different classes. Which before this chapter I would of said there were like two schools not 6 of them. Then they also talk about mostly men being in the field of psychology until about 1861 which that women Mary Calkins made some good finding on the study of memory and self-concept. Yes, I know most men were doctors in the early times in the USA history , but now looking at psychology in today's world I would have to say more women are in the field. Most of the time when I watch movies or even hear a person or two talking about seeing a psychologist they always show women or say they saw a women so I was kind surprised that more women in history weren't psychologist. So far this first chapter has differently changed my mind set on this class isn't going to be easy because I'm going to have to think outside the box a little bit more. Differently going to enjoy this class and see a lot things in different ways.
