"The brains aren't complex enough to understand themselves" Well said.
The thought of that being possible hadn't even occurred to me until he said it, and it was honestly a terrifying and profound realization. But screw it, even if we can't, we might as well try.
It‘s an interesting paradox. You can also see it in a different way. Our brains are too complex to be unterstood.
If they did, could you imagine the chaos? Dying all the sudden, because you have full control over usually automatic processes, and simultaneously trying to control them all at once while having an existential panic attack... and that's just one of the possibilities. It'd be funny though, being so over-qualified that you couldn't do something simple because you're operating on too high of a level. haha!
Psychology is basically the brain trying to figure out its self
Pomegranate huh
Not entirely. As human psychology also deals with trying to understand certain human psychology that maybe outside of the normal ( bell curve ) psychology of a human ( either for the better or worse ). E.g.The all too many pathological behaviours ( within a healthy social psychology) that drive humans to inflict cruelty .Edit. My mistake as l was inferring to psychology in general not specifically human psychology. E.g. Psychology is also about attempting to understand other non human animals. A harder task .I.e. Can a human psychology ever comprehend a dolphin psychology.
@@evolutionrhythm4416 You've given an example that supports what you're trying to disagree with; brains trying to understand their own (potentially cruel) actions. A common human action (violence intended to cause suffering) as an example of how psychology works to understand common human actions... like cruelty.
@@asdfgretw123 mAybe a case of crossed wires ( communication) as you seem to think I'm wrong ( show me / link to the peer reviewed research). All l am suggesting ( it's a fact ) is that empirically gathered evidence ( research that's peer reviewed) is a good method of avoiding human bias . And the rest of the " alternative " " methods " e.g. Your opinion V mine , Belief, social cohesion, making stuff up to meet your immediate agenda, folk stories and religions etc, are at best socially relevant and at worst a complete nightmare.I.e. if some of these religions ever became overly Dominant as they did in the dark ages ( but the majority will never settle on one religion nor one god . Just like no nation will agree that blue is the best colour). Human psychology isn't comparably that complicated ( narcissistic opinions aside). And that's why it's so f.....g hard for some to charge their habits . Even if those habits are a short road to death . Within the context of ecology, the average human psychological is the road to hell ( on planet Earth ). On average humans are a reactionary species. Reacting to perceived immediate threats, desires etc. So, the unknown question is , what level of ecological/ planetary degradation has to take place before humans wake up to the biggest threat ever to face humanity ?. Is a " it's actually too late " to prevent severe ecological collapse ( food systems failure) possible. Nobody ( including ecologists) has all the relevant evidenced based information to answer this with any degree of confidence. Climate change is a " inconvenient truth " , we must do our best to reduce the possibility of it becoming a global catastrophe.
@@asdfgretw123 I agree l didn't get to the point l was inferring. As a thought experiment lets say humans have the cognitive potential to fully understand their own psychology ( not " fake" in order to gain social esteem , but a real scientifically based comprehension). E.g. The conscious would comprehend what it is and why/how it functions the way it does . I.e " The human brain knowing itself". Psychologically that would not answer psychological questions that are not specifically of human ( hominid) origin . e.g. The psychology of a dog has changed quite significantly since it's wolf ancestry ( e.g. To live in human social groups ) . Much of the dog ( wolf sub species ) psychological change has occurred due to human selective breeding ( I.e. Humans selectively breeding wolf's >>dogs based on preferred behavioural characteristics ( " piggy backing" on the process of natural selection ). Thus , even if some evolutionary psychologists can understand human psychology / behaviour , that would not mean we can fully comprehend the psychology of a dog . Thus , " psychology" is not all about the human brain trying to understand itself " . Of course narcissism seems to be a driving force 😉. ( an understanding of evolution is fundamental to predictable and comprehensive understanding of human psychology for reasons that are beyond the scope of a internet forum .I.e. Read the research like any good scientists does )
I remember watching this series when I was 13. It got me so interested in the subject. I made me want to become a psychologist. Now I'm 18 and will graduate from school next year. I've been determined and put down effort into my school work and will (if I keep my grades relatively good), be able to get into the 5 year (+ 1 year of practice) psychology program to become a licensed psychologist. It’s been such a long time since this video was posted so you'll probably not see this, but thank you so much, Hank
i start college the 18th of august and im undeclared , im really intrested in psychology , is it really hard ?
@@ricardomojica8357 I think it depends. But once you understand the way you have to think, it's easy. If you're interested, I'd say you'll manage quite easily :) good luck!
Very inspiring to me, I am about that age right now!
im about 13 years old and very interested in this subject . thanks for the inspiration i hope im u someday
Wish you the best of Luck❤
Learning about something is so much more fun when you don't have to give exams for it
"Over the next 6 months we'll go over this together" Well actually over the next 4 hours
i was going to do the calculating thanks
Actually 6 hours
Elias Aceves lmfaoo true
yeah if you watch in 2x speed
Big facts
Everyone's commenting on how they're watching the videos for school/exams but I'm just genuinely interested
SAME Don't know if I'd actually take a psych class ever But I'm very interested
Same I'm just genuinely interested
Same
Same. This is so much better than Netflix.
***** Nice. You should consider writing a book. I relate to many of your descriptions about being a loner in school and therefore starting to observe and study human behavior. I noticed humans doesn't differ at all from most of the mammals, except that we have a complex form of communication, so it's quite "easy" to find patterns and what causes them to be. I would really enjoy sharing information if you don't mind.
anyone not here for exams but because phycology is one of the most interesting things ever :)
Me!
who's here during quarantine 2020
I knew that there was someone else XD

I feel like this Civ V quote is relevant. "If our brains were simple enough for us to understand them, we'd be so simple that we couldn't." -Ian Stewart
+SiCong Li the first and second simple are the same.
True.
I disagree with that - simply because it's assuming that a single brain is not capable of understanding one other brain or itself only. Which would hold true. However, there are hundreds of thousands, millions even, of brains working towards completely understand one single brain. Take, for example, computers - the original computer (representing a single brain) could only do simple math problems. It was not capable of understanding the intricacies of another version of itself. However, a complex supercomputer (representing a network of humans) can easily break down the code generating the old school computer. So, while one individual is not capable of discovering everything about the brain, a network of human beings can.
Wonderful discourse. What about the brains of other organisms in our animal kingdom? Even a network of those minds cannot possibly discover how one of their own minds works, even a billion of them as none will physically have the ability to be aware enough to look into their own minds. They clearly have mental capacities that limit their intelligence and understanding of the environment. Does that mean they match this quote? Well, we cannot understand the principles of their simpler minds and consciousness even with our higher mental capacity. So I agree with this quote... in a way.
+Jake H but in a way I also disagree with it...
That moment when the new Crash Course Intro runs for the first time. God, I love those intros!
:D
Your vidz are amazing
Especially the little comments in the intro
So basically, Human minds are one of the most complicated things and the rules that govern it are mysterious & elusive. While the term "psychology" was coined around 16th Century, the practice of science around it was no established until the 1800. The formal definition of psychology has evolved over the last several decades, today we can safely call it the science of behavior and mental processes. Psychology is one of the most extremely diverse in terms of the questions it proposes, the method it applies and the school of though it contains. For instance, right around Freud's(1900-1939) time, there were a lot of different schools of thought of about how the study of the human mind should be tackled. Mainly, there were the ideas of structuralism, functionalism and psychoanalysis. -"Structuralism" in 1879 by Wilhelm Wundt & Edward Bradford Titchener: "Structuralism" focusses on how patient feel when they do something like watched the sun set, or smell a coffee, or licked a kitten, or whatever. This relied heavily on introspection and it became too subjective and since it's not possible observe a patient's inner thoughts or feelings, so ultimately, the structuralist school of thought was fairly short-lived. -"Functionalism" in 1890 by William James: Focuses on the "function of behavior", why we think and feel and smell and lick, or whatever. This approach of 'functionalism', was based on Charles Darwin's idea that adaptive behaviors are conserved throughout the evolutionary process. -"Psychoanalysis" in 1900 by Freud: A radical kernel of Psychoanalysis suggests that "our personalities are shaped by unconscious motives" which mean we are all profoundly affected by mental processes that we are not aware of. Another important part of the "Psychoanalysis" is that "unconscious, the thing below consciousness" is still discover-able. An even though we are not aware of it, we can come to understand it through a therapeutic technique using dreams, projections and free association to root out repressed feelings and gain self insight. So what Freud was really saying was that "mental disorders could be healed through talk therapy and self-discovery". And this was a really big breakthrough. After "The Interpretations of Dreams", Freud went on to publish over 20 more books and countless papers with an iconic cigar in hand all the while. -"Behaviorism" by Ivan Pavlov, John B. Watson, and B. F. Skinner: Behaviorism focuses on the study of observable behavior. The first half of the 20th Century was dominated by "behaviorism" promoted by Ivan Pavlov, John B. Watson, and B. F. Skinner. -"Psychodynamic Theories" descendant of Freud's Psychoanalysis: Psychodynamic Theories focuses on importance of early experiences in shaping the unconscious and how that process affects out though, feelings, behavior and personalities. By the mid-20th century, there were other major forces in psychology like "Humanist Psychology", which focuses on nurturing personal growth; "Cognitive Science" and "Neuroscience", all of which contributed their own unique takes on the study of mind. Psychology: Modern day definition of psychology "the study of behavior and mental processes", is a nice amalgamation that pulls from all these different schools of thought. It recognizes the need for observing and recording behavior, but it also gives credit to our mental processes, what we think and feel and believe. Psychology is an integrative science and while there are different school of thoughts & theories, the essence of the discipline has everything to do with creating different ways of asking interesting questions and attempting to answer them through all kinds of data-gathering methods. The human mind is complicated. There is no single way to effectively crack it open; it must be pried at from all sides. Harvard astronomer Owen Gingerich has gazed into the distant horizon of space, and even he has acknowledged that the human brain is by far the most complex physical object known to us in the entire cosmos, and we all get to have one!
I'm 11. I know I might kinda young to study psychology but....I want to know a bit about it. I have a passion to become a therapist or psychologist....I want to help people with their feelings....☺
it's 3am and I've decided I want to be a behavioral psychologist. May change my mind over the course of the next two years of high school, but Psych is convincing

If anyone here is college student learning Psychology here are some tips : As a psychologist. I believe that my patients should feel comfortable with my questions and try to get more free and comfortable talking to me with the time. I treat them like my friends. Because I myself have been through a lot of mental pressure when I was a child. Everyone around me was under mass depression and I started learning how to help people.

Same, and I am so exciteeeeed to know more about psych
I mean I'm not yet have the ability to take psych class since I'm only 14 but I lookout to prepare since I'm really into psychologyical stuff and looking forward to be psychological doctor
I watched this video for the first time in my final year of highschool when i was struggling to figure out what i wanted to do with the rest if my life. This video made me want to learn more about the subject and I am proud to say that 6 years later i have just graduated with an honors degree in applied psychology. I have watched this video, and all the others in the series many times over the past few years and i wish i could thank hank personally for making the dense topic of psychology fun to learn and easy to digest. I am going to take a break from studying for a year or two to go out and work in the filed but i will come back and edit this comment in a few years time when i get my doctorate in clinic psychology. Thanks hank!
Awesome man 😊I want to be a psychiatrist. All the best to you!
Congrat! For someone who interested in psychology as well Glad to you :)
I have a sort of "learning disability" where it takes me longer to process and act on some types of information and quicker than usual to process and act on other types of information. It's actually more of a "learning difference" than disability. There have been times when I've been able to figure out a situation before everyone else does and they're like "how the hell did he figure it out?", yet when I was learning to drive, I failed the driving test three times! I'm looking into psychology because I really want to understand how my mind works. I want to know myself better!
honestly me too!!
My psychology teacher is having us watch this! I've been watching Crash Course in my free time, but now I get to watch it for homework :D
Musicyay12 No, not really. The material itself isn't too difficult, but there's a lot of papers and a lot of reading involved. It might be different depending on the teacher though.
Musicyay12 No problem :)
+gingergamergirl98 I Wish I could have that kind of homework.:P
+gingergamergirl98 Jealous!!!
Please tell me the name of any one psychological research which was done using survey method!
"You might sense and feel something different than I do even if we lick the same kitten." -Hank Green, 2014.
I’m 15, a 9th gradee and I’m genuinely interested in this topic. I started being interested when I was 13. I think I’ll be deciding to take on Psychology :)))
People watching this video fall into the categories: 5% saying random paradoxes 60% saying they have an exam tomorrow and are trying to cram 35% saying they have a passion for this subject Whos here in 2019?
Me! I am majoring in psych. I already took intro to psych but I didnt learn much from her 🙄

Im just doing hw lmao

Trying to understand others better 👍
I'm Autistic, and I've decided that perhaps I might understand people better if I knew how people think. Let's see how this theory works out.
It might
I am autistic (high-functioning with Aspergers) as well. Unfortunately, the past few years i have been plagued with completely separate new things and neurological conditions includin depression, OCD and other anxiety disorders, possible schizophrenia, and an array of physical things that is not relevant. As a result of the many things I have albeit they are very bad, they have made me VERY interested in the human mind and wanting to learn more about these things, the very things I can relate to so much. I am currently enrolled in AP Psychology at my high school, and this whole series might also help me study for that AP Exam of course. I have already watched the videos on the mental disorders, but have decided to watch EVERY video in this series, starting with this. I admire your similar goal. I say Crash Course does a darn good job with their series's.. Sorry for the rant though
Or your might understand them more than they do, and confuse or scare them.
Operator Arrow Is that what happened with Sherlock?
it worked somewhat for me
This series fueled my love for Psychology as a high schooler and now I am in my second semester of my psych major! Thanks for helping me find my passion :')

Agree
I just graduated this past June and I didn't go away to university because I never knew what I wanted to take, but watching all these crash course videos on all the things I would be interested have really helped me narrow down what I want to go to uni for next fall! :)
14 year old here! I’m not in high school yet, still in 8th grade. I’ve always wanted to be a journalist, and i had a plan to major in journalism at USC, Emerson College, or NYU. I’ve always loved to write and I’m very interested in politics and talking to people. But, recently I took a liking to psychology. I’ve always been slightly interested in it but now I’m really considering becoming a clinical psychologist. Idk what to pick, I know I have a ton of time still but it’s kinda overwhelming 😂 I feel a calling in both fields, so we’ll see what I end up picking. I picked journalism as one of my courses in high school so I’ll see how I like it. Best of luck to everyone! xx

Watched this years ago when it came out and now happily rewatched the series for my studies in psychology ❤️
Psychology is honestly so interesting. I want to be a lawyer when I grow up but I'm probably going to study psychology too. Hopefully, I can pass the rest of middle school and high school well enough to get into a good college.
Here's an observation... Everyone takes so much pride in watching videos about psychology in their leisure time, it's quite interesting... hmmm

These videos make studying so much easier. You literarily put a 3 hour lecture into 10 minutes, thank you Hank you gorgeous gem!
"If the human brain was simple enough to understand, we'd be too simple to understand it." - some smart guy that i don't remember the name of
As a BTech 3rd year student, I think every student should have commendable knowledge in psychology. So I always become very interested to learn psychology. Your videos have brought a golden Chance to persons like us to fulfill our interest. They will surely play an towering role in transforming The lives of millions. Thanks,congrats , hats off and salute to all conserned.
Be warned, if you want to study this. There is a LOT to remember, no joke. It is just painful remembering all that information. So if you want to study it, you gotta be committed. From an A Level student.
Alexander Anderson seriously? is it that hard? could you give an example please.
Psychology can be easy for some and hard for others so I cannot answer that question for you. But if you are committed and capable of remembering a lot of information, go ahead. But to give you the topics I am doing, these were; Biopsychology, Attachments, Memory, Social Influence, Psychopathology, Approaches to Psychology, Research Methods, Relationships, Forensic Psychology, and Schizophrenia.
What if ur taking a 2 week class
Notes, notes and more notes. Then drilling those notes into your head, then rewrite them again.
Alexander Anderson I’m figuring out what I wan do and this has sparked my interest and thanks for this tip
I'm so glad that these are here! I want to be a psychologist or a psychiatrist in the future and I wanted to go ahead and start learning early so now I can watch these!
TigerLily Heads up, psychiatrists just focus on medicine to treat mental illness and symptoms. It's all medicine, not too much psychology.
Literally same. In the IB, im gonna take psychology so i decided i might as well get a head start lol
ninjalemurdude. Still gotta know your stuff though. ..
Same!!
Sydney Andrea yeah, knowing what the disorders are and how they work is important if you’re going to be prescribing people things
I am so thankful for this series. I am about to teach intro to psychology to teens at my local co op for homeschool kids and frankly, I had no idea what I was going to do, until I came across this wonderful page. My only concern is how fast he talks but thankfully I can pause and rewind. I look forward to sharing this page with the kids.
It's strange how the the brain doesn't recognize the second "the" after the first "the". Read again.
hahahaha
Top down proceeding 👍
At first, I thought the joke was that readers would click on "Read more" until two minutes later, I realized it said "Read again." Then I spent another few minutes figuring out why I was supposed to read it again. Some days I think I'm fairly intelligent, and most other days... Touché, man, touché.
Wow ...the human brain
I knew that trick and still fell for it. Aka, good job.
I'm a visual learner, so your videos really help me to remember my studies by using my reading and video's together. Thank you so much for developing videos for us that next extra support in learning. Can't wait to use your other videos on other subjects.
I used to watch Crash Course even though I'd graduated high school & wasn't pursuing a higher education. However, I just got accepted into and started a bachelor's in psych. I can't wait to watch this again all these years later
These playlists are a great source of acquiring knowledge of the in no time. This is my 5th crash course.

U guys deserve funding and more subscribers.u make learning easy and fun especially with the funny disposition of the teachers and the animation. Beautifully combined
I've come to the conclusion that the better the channel content, the less shitty the comment section
Finn Mikkelsen Agreed :)
Finn Mikkelsen I think the trolls and willfully ignorant mostly stay away from education channels.
Read the comments to world history... I cried
HiItsJo oh, well history is more of an attractive topic to opinionated people for psychological reasons than even psychology is LOL. Everyone wants to twist history their way... and they always try to simplify it to their level of thinking.
Psychology major. Totally psyched for this.
I see what you did there ;)
Is it just me, not only that i watched these videos to help me with an exam but i watch it just for fun . i honestly just LOVE this Channel.
My dad said it takes 5x the amount to prepare for a video/ exam for us to be able to perform well. you're doing great!
A fascinating video that truly helps us try to grasp the extent of the complexity of the human mind. I've always been curious about how our mind functions and this was a great start to this journey of discovery about the science of psychology. A truly commendable aspect of this field is that all people practicing psychology did not confine themselves within any rigid schools of thoughts and came forward with vastly differing theories which all attempted to unlock parts of our brain and how it functions. The amazing part is that all these theories are still extant today and have been the building block of modern psychological practices. Another interesting aspect of this video was the in-depth analysis of how Sigmund Freud came up with his theories. All of his theories had always seemed a tad bit shocking but he was definitely a great thinker and truly revolutionized this field as he didn't allow his ideas to be circumscribed by the general thinking of people around him.
This was a great first episode! Looking forward to more of this last old Crash Course series I haven't seen yet.
I love the way psychology has a way of opening up the mind.
I love Freud, he was a radical thinker and everyone suffering with mental illness wouldn't have gotten far in life without his necessary breakthrough. Thank you Dr.
If anyone is taking the AP Psychology test on May 1st 2017 I love you guys and good luck. May your hippocampus function the right way.
"May your hippocampus function the right way" is the new "may the force be with you"....

This video just made me more psyched to take a Psychology course in the future💙
Starting a college course in this subject- had no idea what it was I just knew it was about the human brain and behavior. And I FLIPPED when I found out Crash Course had a series on it. Thank u omigosh

Just found this channel and the only thing I can say is: wow Everything is perfect! The content, the teacher's humour and explanations, I can even understand every little word he says and English is not my native language... Wow!
just trying to evolve my self everyday . you can never stop learning . i will continue to study everything i can . everything!
I am making a researches home study in psycology to get a certificate all kind of psycos fileds , i surprisingly found out that the info and clips about it in web is more rich that the curriculum i study from pluse more simplifies illustrations with better visual diagrams that helps to understand faster and your clips helped me . Thank you so much keep the good job .👍👍
The way this course has explained different aspects of psycology is actually appreciable. Also the approach of explaining schools of Psychology is amazing . I think I got to know the complete new aspect of psycology and I love to explore more about it now.
honestly just binge watching BC I like pyschology oops
same
totally
me too, im starting high school this year, and i hope to go on to major in something psychology-like (probably neuroscience)
I just did that very thing with the Philosophy playlist. Watched it from start to finish without break. This will probably suck me in the same way.
me too! I'm planning on doing a psychology major. I'm so interested in it💓 plus I'm bored as hell tonight.
It's so interesting how psychology is its its own way subjective but also very connected
it's 2022, this vid is first that intrigued me about psychology now I'm a student of psychology. time sure flies.
ive been a fan of your videos for a long time about so many different things ....if you had a course on masterclass id buy it you are excellent and me and my kids are big fans thank you for doing what you do keeping me entertained in science is a feat in itself but helping me relate to my children across deeply complex ideas is truly amazing! top shelf sir well played
GET BACK UP THERE. YOU HAVE AN EXAM TOMORROW
IT'S SO TRUE! I HAVE AN EXAM IN A FEW HOURS.
KevinMcNoodles Lolll I will not
Lol... I have exam 2moro at 9
this comment motivated me to keep studying
Damn , alright
I tend to do summaries via videos like the ever wonderful videos produced by Crash Course either before or after completing notes on a particular section/chapter of my studies. Helps me a lot, don't know if this tip will help whoever reads my comments but it helps me.
Let’s get this bread AP psych 2019 😔✊🏼
How is psychology? I'm thinking of choosing it as a subject. What do you think should i or should I not?
Χαφσά hafsa personally I really enjoyed it. I learned a lot about the way people think and it was very useful in everyday life. I really recommend it even though it was ALOT of reading at my school and the work was intensive but that’s expected out of an AP class. I definitely think it’s worth it however. Good luck! I got a 5 on the AP test and so can you.
@@neradena thank you . And that's really good you got 5 in AP. 💛
ohhh an army and a psychology student. let's make namjoon proud 😌✊
So, I am thinking of taking psychology is it hard to come to terms with, because I actually enjoy watching videos about it
Best of luck for Monday! You know who you are!
+jordan w I'm crying
+Amanda you'll do fine! But, just in case, I'll cry with you. ;)
+jordan w thanks! Hah

Daksha how did it go? I've been studying psychology before i go into College to lessen the pain. XD.
This is by far the best channel when it comes to educating from scratch
I JUST LOVE THE WAY YOU HAVE PUT IT UP...HUMAN PSYCHE IS COMPLEX AND YET INTRESTING TO STUDY!
Watched this years ago for fun, now I need to watch it for school 😂❤
Thank You, Hank Green for making these videos. I have watched these all year in class and now I am binge watching these to review for my AP PSY exam in 4 days.
perfect timing guys! I have my first Psych. test on Thursday and I can now say that I have studied for it.
I'm studying psychology in Uni and these videos are so much fun.
If only all teachers had this approach and energy classes would be craved
Looking forward to the series Hank and thanks as always for keeping the bar high for other content creators.
Love this guy
Dude! I love your videos Keith Hughes
