Brandon Vaughan, sounds like a great field to go into at this time. With all the new technology to do brain and neuroscience, there will be large breakthroughs in the future. Good luck

Welcome, Brandon. What you say provokes a thought:
I get the impression that, with the increasing use of technology (scanners, genetics,etc) psychology is beginning to be seen as hard science and that more men are getting involved. Anybody else think so?

Hello all. I am a psychology major, focusing on experimental psychology. I want to get a master's degree and PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience.

I like eugenics, too. Make it a private market! Those who really care about their family's future could help eliminate health issues and maybe even select for intelligence and beauty. Why are horses, cows, and pets more important than humanity when it comes to breeding. There will always be 'mistakes' and some of those mistakes (very few) may wind up being beneficial. So be it...evolution. But, eugenics doesn't have to be racist or sexist. Each couple could choose what they prefer most, in a free market.

I LIKE social darwinism! Imagine if all of the religious people stopped taking medicine because they believed god would heal them...swocial darwinism!

I didn't give it any thought before you mentioned it, but Freud is pretty dated as the face of psychology. Featuring different faces would be a fun idea.

Well, now that I've been a member for abut two weeks, I guess that gives me the right (or nerve?) to enquire why the poster child for this site is Freud. Is it possible to have a different photo each month, for example? Wolpe? Lazarus? Adler? Jung? Genet? and others? Just asking.
