Biological Psychology
What are biological determinants? These are the underlying issues that depend on adaptation. Adaptation is dealing with things that change to conditions in response to something. There are individual differences, and if you were look at a frequency distribution that would be relative for most frequency distributions are usually bell-shaped and show the positive and negative sides of what is or could be determined in a study.

What does Back to School Mean To You?
It is back to school time or close to it. What does this time of year mean to you. To me it is a time to look forward to seeing old friends and maybe making some new ones as well. It was a time of getting some new clothes and new supplies from notebooks, folders and binders along with pens and pencils, even though the schools at the time I was in school supplied at least a paper tablet and in the earlier grades a box of crayons along with a pencil along with all the old and maybe new textbooks pertaining to your new grade. I was a student of the 1970's and I remember having textbooks from the 1950's and 1960's to study from at least till I got to fifth grade when the school district bought new textbooks.

Writing literature
What does it mean to be a writer of literature? Well, to me being a writer is one of teaching. Writing is a skill that one can teach, but must also be a skill that is somewhat inbreed to a point. Teachers can teach the grammar behind the writing, as we all know by now with the eight parts of speech, subject-verb agreement, diagramming, the mechanics as spelling, capitalization and punctuation. They can also teach syntax and proper word choice and how to write a paragraph from writing the topic sentence to supporting sentences to fit a topic of one's choosing along with all the other skills that makes English and composition fun. I bet we all remember the lessons we had in learning to write a perfect sentence then moving on to forming and writing the perfect paragraph. These exercises might have been boring, but very necessary for us born writers. They taught us how to put order into our writing.

History of Psychology
The History of Psychology This is a brief history of the subject of psychology. In another series of articles/lessons will be offered with more detail in the history of this subject. There was a man by the name of Ebbinghaus, who had a long past and short history. From the years 1750-1850 Ebbinghaus and others had begun to ask psychological questions. This started in Britain with the 'The Associationists' with the idea of the mind and knowledge are acquired and how they fit together. By 1850 there was a change to a more professional and academic format.
