51. Psychological counseling

Psychological counseling focuses primarily on psychological impact, psychocorrection - on the processes of manipulation, control and formation, and within the framework of psychotherapy, each of the above methods of providing psychological assistance is used.

The main goal of counseling is the formation of a personal position, a specific worldview and the formation of a hierarchy of client values.

The task of psychological correction is to develop skills that are optimal for the individual and effective for maintaining health of mental activity that contributes to personal growth and adaptation of a person in society.

The main task of psychotherapy is the relief of psychopathological symptoms, through which internal and external harmonization of the personality is achieved.

Psychological counseling includes various processes:

1) a diagnostic process that contributes to the specific features of the development of the client (normal or abnormal), as well as the presence or absence of psychopathological symptoms;

2) the process of informing a person about the structure of his mental activity and individual psychological characteristics, favorable and unfavorable life situations;

3) the process of learning auto-training skills, methods of psychological protection, as well as methods for normalizing one's own emotional state.

Psychological counseling involves the joint work of a doctor, a clinical psychologist and a patient. The process of psychological counseling includes:

1) discussion of the problems that a person has and possible options for overcoming them;

2) informing the individual about his individual psychological qualities and methods of self-regulation.

The structure of psychological counseling includes diagnostics, which includes clinical interviewing, the use of psychodiagnostic methods to determine the features of the functioning of mental processes and personality parameters.

Psychological counseling is used in solving various problems of the client as the initial stage of therapy. Often counseling is used in combination with psychocorrectional and psychotherapeutic influence. The specific purpose of psychological counseling is psychological phenomena that are caused by identity crises and other worldview problems, as well as communication disorders. When solving such problems, the use of psychocorrection or psychotherapy is considered ineffective.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Created the world's fastest rotating object 22.01.2020

The device was created by a team of scientists from Purdue University (USA). It spins about 500 times faster than a dentist's drill.

The rotating object is a silica nanoparticle that - when viewed through an electron microscope - looks like two spheres connected together.

To make the silica spin at a record speed, the scientists used the power of light. They first made an object levitate in a vacuum with one laser, and then used another laser to accelerate it.

The nanoparticle is not only the fastest rotating object in the world, but also the most sensitive torque sensor known. Rotational moment (also moment of force, torque) is a measure of the force that causes an object to rotate around its axis.

The new device is 600-700 times more sensitive than any other previous instrument capable of measuring torque.

The device can be used to study special effects in quantum mechanics.
