  1. Postmodern psychology

    Postmodern psychology is an approach to psychology that questions whether an ultimate or singular version of truth is actually possible within the field of psychology. This type of psychological approach relies on using a range of different methodologies rather than a singular approach. Psychologists who use this postmodern theory view reality as complex and avoid singular approaches in order to counteract or avoid oversimplification. Post modernism curtails rationale as by definition it is an abstract non existent method being limited as post modernism and being virtually inseparable from regular standards of today, whilst given as an unlimited ethos. With postmodern psychology the normal technique of philosophical debunking of rationale becomes paradoxically problematic. The understanding of the human psyche through systematic analysis is flawed inherently through absence of objectability. Considering the post modern approach, one must retain a polarized and transmutable position metaphorically in order to attain conceptual hold of the self subjectively as the object. That given, opinionated transformation of ideology is authorised by the fundamental respected definitions of reason, and inherent knowledge through instinct and intuition. Applied as a replaceable archetype this theoretical method Tetradic logic can allow us to accept knowing without knowing by means of integral faith assimilation of reality with transience and fantasy. Once postmodern psychology is mastered the mental ill health prevalent within society will dissipate through a concise and accurate treatment available through integrated intervention into the mind human mind and body enterprise, as no conditions ... psychology , as a new mentality that both transcends and transforms modernity ... where psychology ...

    Correctional psychology is an area of psychology that focuses on applying psychology to a prison correctional setting . According to researcher Michael Decaire, The correctional psychologist s primary mission is to assist in offender rehabilitation and reintegration. ref http www.uplink.com.au lawlibrary Documents Docs Doc93.html ref The correctional psychologist s primary mission is to assist in offender rehabilitation and reintegration. Additionally, the psychologist enhances staff and inmate safety by promoting a healthy institutional environment Hawk, 1997 . The correctional psychologist clearly has varied responsibilities. Their primary focus is their application of direct psychological services with inmates, evaluation of the prison population, inmate management, release evaluation and recommendations. While correctional has become a highly popular sub discipline of psychology, it is also riddled with unique ethical dilemmas and conflicts Van Voorhis & Spencer, 1999 . Unfortunately, many of the ethical dilemmas within correctional psychology appear to be far from successful resolution. There is virtually no recent academic literature concerning the ethical problems in corrections, and even fewer recommendations on how one should proceed when faced with such problems Weinberger & Sreenivasan, 1994 .
