Generally Thinking

"Specialization is for insects" – Robert A. Heinlein

About Generally Thinking

This site doesn’t have a theme. It used to be only about psychology and related topics, then I merged several sites into one. Now it’s about anything I feel like writing about. Why?

“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

Specialization is for insects.”

- Robert A. Heinlein, from “Time Enough for Love”

There are several sections to the site:

The Psychology Study Guide – An ebook I wrote for psychology students to help them get better grades and better understanding of the subject.

Rethink – Kamila Wita has a blog on the site called Rethink, helping you look at mental health issues in a new way.

The Research Database – A database pointing you to the research of the various sub-fields of psychology, to help you do psychology research.

Positive psychology Digest – Positive Psychology is usually referred to as “The science of well-being and optimal functioning.” This category is a mixture of the theory and applications to come from fields that fit under this broad umbrella.

Do it for a month – Documentation of weird month-long self-experiments.

Languages – I’m learning Spanish, if I find any useful tips on accelerated language learning they’ll go in here. Plus maybe some vocab and stuff.

Q & A – This started out as a psychology question and answer page, but I’ll probably expand into other topics.

…and there’s a lot more, feel free to have a look around. And subscribe to the RSS feed too! If you’re only interested in one of the topics, you can subscribe to individual categories. Just select the category from the big list on the right, and the link to the category RSS will appear at the top of the sidebar.
