    Psychology | EP 76 | Anxiety Disorders | Optional | UPSC podcast

    Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube: ⁠www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion⁠. In today’s lecture, we will focus on Anxiety Disorders, which arise when the natural human response to perceived threats—anxiety—becomes irrational, overwhelming, and interferes with daily life. We will delve into various anxiety disorders, such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Phobic Disorders, Panic Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Although these disorders share the core feature of anxiety, each manifests in unique ways.

    Psychology | EP 75 | Psychotic and Neurotic Disorders | Optional | UPSC podcast

    Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube at ⁠www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion⁠. Today, we will explore the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) with a focus on two major categories: psychotic and neurotic disorders. Psychotic disorders, such as schizophrenia and delusional disorders, involve a detachment from reality, leading to significant disturbances in thought, behavior, and emotion. Schizophrenia, characterized by delusions, hallucinations, and cognitive disorganization, will be examined alongside its types, causes, and treatment options. Neurotic disorders, or anxiety disorders, involve persistent yet milder psychological symptoms, with individuals remaining in touch with reality. We'll also delve into personality and mood disorders, such as borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder, exploring their symptoms, causes, and treatment approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication. Understanding these mental health conditions is essential for diagnosing and improving patient outcomes. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAS #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity

    Psychology | EP 74 | Stress and Motivation | Optional | UPSC podcast

    Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube at ⁠www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion⁠. Today, we will explore two fundamental concepts in psychology: stress and motivation. Stress represents the adaptive demands placed on individuals by their environment, and it arises when challenges seem beyond one’s coping abilities. We will discuss its characteristics, types, and approaches to studying stress, including Hans Selye's General Adaptation Syndrome and Lazarus and Folkman's cognitive appraisal approach. Additionally, we will delve into motivation, the driving force behind goal-directed behavior. We'll examine different types of motives—biological, social, and psychological—and review key theories such as Hull's Drive Theory and the concept of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Understanding these concepts is crucial for managing life's challenges and achieving our goals. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAS #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity

    Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube at ⁠www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion⁠. Today, we will delve into the intricate world of emotions, exploring their complex nature and significance in human psychology. Emotions are multifaceted experiences that emerge from the interaction of situational factors and psychological variables, encompassing subjective feelings, physiological changes, and behavioral responses. We'll define emotions, highlight their characteristics such as personal experience, balance, and physiological impact, and examine major theories of emotion including the James-Lange theory, Cannon-Bard theory, and the Schachter-Singer two-factor theory. Each theory offers a unique perspective on how emotions are experienced and expressed, providing a deeper understanding of the interplay between the body, mind, and emotions. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAS #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity
