The Aversion Project๐Ÿง 

What is rejected by the mind is often influenced by what has been taught to be unacceptable. There are times where people saw something that they thought that thing is unusual or abnormal. Then they think that it is something to be 'corrected' or 'cured', or it's something you were told to hide. But they have to realize that not all discomfort is danger. Sometimes itโ€™s identity waiting to be accepted. The Aversion Project conducted in the 1970s to 1980s tackles the topic of homosexuality being seen as a psychological disease/ illness. It is a sensitive topic for the LGBTQIA+ community as the project resulted in harming homosexual individuals. You can read the rest in the infographic attached below.

This question was explored many years ago by a psychologist named ๐‘ฏ๐’‚๐’“๐’“๐’š ๐‘ฏ๐’‚๐’“๐’๐’๐’˜. In the 1950s, he conducted the ๐‘บ๐’–๐’“๐’“๐’๐’ˆ๐’‚๐’•๐’† ๐‘ด๐’๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’“ ๐‘ฌ๐’™๐’‘๐’†๐’“๐’Š๐’Ž๐’†๐’๐’• using infant rhesus monkeys. In his study, the baby monkeys were separated from their real mothers and given two artificial mothers: a ๐’„๐’๐’๐’•๐’‰ ๐’Ž๐’๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’“, made of soft material that provided comfort๐Ÿซ‚, and a ๐’˜๐’Š๐’“๐’† ๐’Ž๐’๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’“, made of metal that provided milk ๐Ÿผ for nourishment.

The monkeys were also exposed to frightening situations, such as loud noises and scary objects, to observe which mother they would go to for security. The results showed that the monkeys spent most of their time with the ๐’„๐’๐’๐’•๐’‰ ๐’Ž๐’๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’“, even though she did not provide food. They only went to the wire mother when they needed to eat.

This experiment showed that attachment is not formed by food alone, but by ๐’„๐’๐’Ž๐’‡๐’๐’“๐’• ๐’‚๐’๐’… ๐’†๐’Ž๐’๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’๐’‚๐’ ๐’”๐’†๐’„๐’–๐’“๐’Š๐’•๐’š. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

Going back to Punch the monkey, just like the infant monkeys in Harlowโ€™s study, Punch carries his toy because it gives him comfort, safety, and emotional support.๐Ÿซ‚

This reminds us that attachment is not only about survival. Both animals and humans need ๐’๐’๐’—๐’†, ๐’˜๐’‚๐’“๐’Ž๐’•๐’‰, ๐’‚๐’๐’… ๐’†๐’Ž๐’๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’๐’‚๐’ ๐’„๐’๐’๐’๐’†๐’„๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’ to grow and develop in a healthy way. ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’—

Our Psyjama Party: Chasing Dreams, One Night at a Time was truly a night filled with laughter, comfort, and unforgettable moments with our fellow psychmates. From movie marathons, salo-salo, and showcasing the cutest pajamas โ€” every moment reminded us that even amidst deadlines and board exam preparations, we all deserve a little pause to rest, connect, and enjoy. ๐Ÿงธ๐ŸŽฌ๐ŸŽฎ

To our Batch 2026 graduates and board exam takers, may this night serve as a reminder that dreams are reached one step, one sleepless night, and one shared memory at a time. ๐ŸŒŸ

Thank you to everyone who joined and made the event warm, fun, and meaningful. Until our next cozy gathering!

The Milgram Experiment by Stanley Milgram shows how powerful authority can be in influencing human behavior โšก๐Ÿง 

In the study, participants were instructed to give electric shocks to another personโ€”and many continued, even when it felt wrong ๐Ÿ˜ณโšก In fact, about 65% followed orders to the highest level ๐Ÿ’€

This experiment reminds us that ordinary people can do harmful actions when pressured by authority ๐Ÿ‘ฅ Itโ€™s a powerful lesson about the importance of thinking for ourselves and standing by what is right ๐Ÿ’ญโœจ

What do you thinkโ€”would you have obeyed or refused? ๐Ÿค”

FUN FACT FRIDAYS

Have you ever felt helpless after experiencing a series of setbacks and unfortunate events?

Sometimes, when life keeps hitting us with things we canโ€™t control, we slowly stop trying even when the way out is right in front of us. According to American psychologist Martin Seligman, this is called Learned helplessness: a state where repeated stress and failure make us believe that nothing we do will ever make a difference.

But hereโ€™s the truth: that feeling of being stuck is learned, and that means it can also be unlearned. ๐Ÿง 

You are not powerless. Sometimes, you just need to be reminded that you still have control. ๐Ÿ’›
