A woman is at her mothers funeral. While receiving friends she notice a man accross the room. She falls madly in love. It's love at first sight.
She thinks to herself, "this has never happened before."
She says to herself, "I have to meet this man."
During the funeral she was unable to introduce herself to meet this man. She goes home that evening highly dissapointed.
Three days later she killed her sister.
WHY?

I WILL GIVE THE CORRECT ANSWER SOON.
 
So she could see him again at her sister's funeral and introduce herself properly, of course :qt:

Kind of obvious, isn't it?
 
She just kills people. The rest of the details don't matter.
Well, except for the part about falling in love at her mother's funeral.
 
It isn't normal to fall in love at your own mother's funeral ..... EVEN if u never liked her.
='s sociopath.
 
A sphycologist came up with this question to determine which thought process you were on. A sphycopath or normal.
If you answer the question. "she found out her sister was seeing the guy." NORMAL
If you answer. "to create another funeral." SPHYCOPATH

The question actually comes off different verbally than in writing.

...ummmm..since I said sociopath instead of psychpath, am I still sane or should I go put on my strappy white jacket?:confused::(
 
poor execution

all women are nuts, its because she's nuts and just likes to kill people
 
bigtravis said:
Actually most women will answer "to create another funeral"

I only answered that way because I googled the question before I posted up :qt:

Nothing in all the web pages I read said anything about a higher percentage of women versus men answered the question sociopathically. Could you show me a page that says that from a legitimate source? :qt: I find this quite intesting since, according to the WHO, men are more than three times likely to be diagnosed with an antisocial personality disorder than women.

Although women have men beaten all around when it comes to any of the various types of depression.

1. There are way more female psychologists than male psychologists so of course they're going to try and tell males their social qualities are a disorder :)
2. Everything related to soft sciences such as psychology should be taken very lightly. There have been some good finds in the field over the years, but it's still a crock of shit for the most part.

"Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) is defined by the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual as "...a pervasive pattern of disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others that begins in childhood or early adolescence and continues into adulthood."[1] Deceit and manipulation are considered essential features of the disorder." ... People having antisocial personality disorder are sometimes referred to as "sociopaths" and "psychopaths", although some researchers believe that these terms are not synonymous with ASPD"

"Sex differences: According to DSM-IV (in a 1994 publication by the APA), Antisocial Personality disorder is diagnosed in approximately three percent of all males and one percent of all females.[1]"

You want to tell me that's normal male behavior?!? Deceit and manipulation? Consistent disregard for and violation of the rights of others? That's something you want to own as being a naturally masculine personality trait?!? No, that's just screwed up behavior, it's wrong and there's no "soft science" about it and no gender biased skewing it. A person lies habitually or they tell the truth, those are facts. They either use and abuse the people around them or they don't.
 
I have a copy of the DSM-IV-TR, and while it's interesting and fun to read, I must agree with UA regarding soft sciences being full of shit. And engineering.

And am I the only person who saw this mental evaluation email joke going around the internet like ten years ago? Let's get some new material, people.

My initial thought was that clearly her sister was cheating. But when I reade MM's reponse I literally LOL'd (here at the airport!). I don't see that answer as being psychopathic. I find it to be clever and witty. I mean, it IS a hypothetical situation... is it not?

1.Historically, no. Just as all the sciences, women are relative newcomers.

2. Psychology is not a soft science, it has it's foundations in the scientific method, and only recently have methods expanded to include things like discourse, phenomenological and psychoanalytical analysis.

It's certainly not a hard science. It totally lacks accuracy, precision, quantitative data, reproducibility, objectivity, &c. Anything falling under behavioral science is, at least in today's world, far closer to soft than hard.

I dunno, everyone can agree that certain behaviors are antithetical to positive social interactions and certain of those actions result in what is classified as criminal behavior. Men outnumber women in prison by like, what, 10 to 1? That's a fact. The ratios get even more dramatic when you compare repeat violent offenders of both genders. So there's nothing "soft" about saying that more men have antisocial behavioral problems (I do think that committing repeated crimes that result in a person going to jail as being pretty damned antisocial).

Men commit more crimes, they commit more violent crimes and those who commit crimes that are violent but fall outside the realms of "crimes of passion" usually commit them more than once. That's not opinion, that's just one of those things you love so much, Samoth, a cold, hard fact.
 
Psychology unfortunately has been given a bad name by a bunch of quacks (like Freud who called children polymorphouslyperverse) I personally disagree with about 80% of tests out there because most are subjective, example:
Human Figure drawing test state that if you make your figure as a stick man figure you may have biological issues (like brain damage) what if you just aren't freaking good drawing and are very embarrassed about it!
there are several other tests used mostly in Neuropsychology that are accurate because it meassures objective things like time response, visuoconstructive ability, etc

Those crappy jokes/tests online are 90% bullshit and no decent psychologist would use them as a diagnose tool, they're probably some stupid thesis attempt of a lazy student....
 
A) lol at MM covering up her tracks with the old "I just googled it routine" innocent routine.....:lmao:

you just don't fuck with MM....:qt:\


B) All I want to know is if this has happened in real life, or if some ACTUAL sociopath dreamed this scenario up under the guise of psychological "research".....yeah right. It never even remotely crossed my mind to think the woman would have killed the sister to get at another funeral. In fact the question annoyed me for how stupid I "perceived" it to be.

I thought so to until I started to do a psychology degree.

There is quantitative data, reproducibility, objectivity.

For example, things like the Stroop experiment is highly reproducible and related to the study of attention.

I am sure Ariel can fill us in on a few more of the classic quantitative psychology experiments.

All the foundations of the study of memory are based on early psychological work, the vast majority of it is quantitative.

All that being said, qualitative research is valid, and there are aspects of human behaviour that can't be assessed quantitatively.

As doing quantitative research for me is like falling off a log, I intend for my research project for my social psychology class is going to use a qualitative method.

Freud was not a quack.

He is in fact, such a brilliant man that most have a great difficulty in grasping his concepts.

He has been seriously mis-represented in modern media.


If you have only heard of his work through 'word of mouth' or the odd reference like the Oedipal complex and penis envy, it will seem odd.

However, most people have no problem using the terms ego, denial, and have a concept of what it means, which are both terms/concepts he coined.

Very few universities offer any psychoanalytic theory in their undergraduate or graduate programs, and very few psychiatrists or psychologists train in psychoanalysis because it is so very complex.

My degree is from one of the few universities in the world that do study Freud and psychoanalysis at the undergraduate level, and his principles have continued to be applied and developed to this day.

For example, transactional analysis is almost a exact translation of Freud's concept of ego, super ego and id.

I would suggest you read about defense mechanisms. It is absolutely fascinating.
 
i think MM is more of a sociopath for googling an EF riddle and then saying "isn't it obvious" than I am for instantly getting the 2nd funeral thing as my answer :D

Is it not qualitative versus quantitative that differentiate "soft" and "hard" sciences?

How is memory quantified? Defined?

Hell, I've never even thought of bio as a hard science; I suppose hard/soft/whatever comes and goes with the times, too. I don't think "hard" or "soft" are even well defined in this context.

I must admit not all his stuff is BS but there are a lot of theories that are "pretty out there" as you mentioned ego, denial, defense mechanisms are very constructive, but I know that because I'm a psychologist too and I research and I study and I did take many courses on it and allthough he has fascinating theories the "popular"/known ones are the strange ones like the Oedipal complex as you mentioned, as a psychologist I can say he did give a lot to us, but as a normal person walking on the street his common theories are really strange.... that and his coke habbit :qt:(and yes yes I know it was because of the cancer...)

:confused: Now you really have me confounded. What exactly are you trying to say?

And no, I wasn't raised in a single parent household (although considering what I grew up in, I wish it had been just me and my mother).
 
the concept of the "ego" was around long before freud. And really, even he only touches the surface of what the "ego" truly is. He picked up the concept from eastern spirtuality. Yes, he redefined it so it could be palatable to western thought processes.....but the original concept was certainly not his.
