Attachment theory, developed by John Bowlby (1958, 1969) and empirically validated by Mary Ainsworth (1978), proposes that humans are biologically predisposed to form close emotional bonds with caregivers — and that the
T_2_07 — Psychology of Addiction
Addiction — compulsive engagement with a substance or behavior despite harmful consequences — is now understood as a chronic brain disorder involving neuroplastic changes in reward, motivation, memory, and executive cont
T_2_06 — Health Psychology and Stress
Health psychology investigates how psychological, behavioral, and social factors influence health, illness, and healthcare — integrating biological and psychosocial perspectives within the biopsychosocial model (Engel, 1
T_2_01 — Psychology of Grief, Loss, and Death Awareness
The psychology of grief, loss, and death awareness spans clinical bereavement research, existential psychology, and experimental social cognition. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's five-stage model (1969), though culturally ubiqui
T_2_15 — Gratitude and Forgiveness: Prosocial Emotions, Health Benefits, and Psychological Resilience
