Abstract
This paper explains that psycho-dynamic therapy has its roots in psychoanalytic theory; however, psycho-dynamic therapy differs from classical psychoanalysis. The author points out that psycho-dynamic therapy is shorter, need not include all analytic techniques, is not conducted by psycho-analytically trained analysts and the therapist is much more actively and openly responsive to the client. The paper relates that contemporary object relations theory distinguishes between psychoanalytic theories, which are drive theories that emphasize biological drives such as sexuality and aggression, and relational theories, which emphasize human relationships.
From the Paper
"The approach of the therapeutic situation depends very much on the theoretical perspective of the analyst. The psychodynamic schools value still the contemporary importance of Freud's original concepts, including the unconscious, id, ego, transference, resistance, free association, and Oedipus complex. Some theorists and analysts described as neo-Freudians retained many of the concepts described by Freud. Among these are the "ego psychology" school pioneered by Anna Freud. The "object relations" school emphasizes the importance of relationships between mother and child in early childhood, the school includes a number of theorists, such as Melanie Klein, Donald Winicott, and John Bowlby."

Abstract
This paper describes the outlook of Abraham Maslow, one of the most influential psychological theorists of the 20th century. In particular, his approach known as humanistic psychology is examined, with an emphasis on his holistic-dynamic theory. The paper describes this theory based on the existing theories of Freud, Jung and Adler. Maslow's "hierarchy of needs" is presented as part of the holistic theory. The paper regards Maslow quite positively, because he never claimed that his theories were an end in themselves or that they were valid to the exclusion of all other theories of psychology.
Outline:
Background of Maslow's Interest in Humanistic Psychology
The Holistic Dynamic Theory
Theory of Motives
Deficiency Motives
Growth Motives
Hierarchy of Needs
The Physiological Needs
The Safety and Security Needs
The Love and Belonging Needs
The Esteem Needs
Self-Actualization
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Even while realizing the importance of the existing theories, Maslow made it his life's goal to "integrate into a single theoretical structure" the partial truths that he saw in Freud, Adler, Jung, et. al. He asserted that Freud had given us "the sick half of psychology, and we must now fill it out with the healthy half." (Maslow, quoted by Ewen, 1998, p. 416) As a result, Maslow developed his Holistic-Dynamic theory of human psychology through the study of healthy, fully functioning, and creative individuals instead of focusing on the mentally ill and the neurotic individuals as was done by Freud and his followers."

Abstract
This paper is made up of a series of three very high level essays dealing with psychoanalytic metapsychologies based on the works of Heinz, Winnicott and Fairbairn. It reviews issues ranging from parental failures to anticipte children's needs to discussing the importance of interpretation in bringing about change. The paper then discusses a quote on analytic method by Mitchell.
From the Paper
"Early parental failures in the anticipation of a young child's biological and/or psychological needs play significant roles in the theories of D. W. Winnicott, W. R. D. Fairbairn and Heinz Kohut. Thomas and McGinnis (1991) make an important distinction relative to Winnicott: He was trained first as a pediatrician before he became a psychoanalyst. "Winnicott was to the British what Benjamin Spock has been to the Americans" (Thomas & McGinnis, 1991). According to Thomas and McGinnis (1991) and Nussbaum (2003) Winnicott believed failed parental anticipation of the child's needs resulted in an inhibitory influence on development from an environmental vantage point which then redirected development. Winnicott believed that when there was environmental 'impingement' the child's sense of self is destroyed and can only be recreated through a return to his original state of "undisturbed isolation" (Thomas & McGinnis, 1991).

Abstract
This paper looks at the sociological concept of group dynamics. It claims that many theories have been written about the topic, but the best way to experience this phenomena is to watch students on campus. This paper is the personal account and observations of a student studying group dynamics.
From the paper:
"Group dynamics is the term given to the scientific study of group behavior, and it is of crucial sociological importance if we wish to advance our knowledge and understanding of the nature of groups, their development and the relationships that exist within and between them. The majority of social scientists examine the concepts of group dynamics through the collation of empirical research and the development of scientific theories. This paper, however, will focus on the application of these theories and issues in relation to specific aspects of everyday life on campus."

Abstract
This paper discusses the form of evolution known as punctuated equilibrium. The paper contends that punctuated equilibrium appears to be increasingly proving itself as the most appropriate model for explaining evolution. The paper defines punctuated equilibrium as a theory that still holds to the idea of generational change, but suggests that it happens relatively quickly (geologically speaking). The paper explains that even if one is a creationist and does not believe in macro-level evolution, one must admit that micro-evolution has been proved to exist in a way that can only be explained as punctuated equilibrium.
From the Paper
"Evolutionists for generations after Darwin imagined a slow and steady process of adaptation, in which daily culling and breeding success very gradually adapted a population from one form into another. Such a process would not be dissimilar to unnatural selection, such as that done with domesticated animals, that gradually worked to change a wolf into a little Cairn Terrier or Shih Tzu. However, some have suggested that there might be a more sudden sort of change involved, in which evolution moves suddenly and with great speed. This theorized form of evolution, called punctuated equilibrium, has been widely debated, but seems to be increasingly accepted by scientists. There appears to be evidence for punctuated equilibrium from laboratory experiments, from field and fossil evidence, from theory and even from Darwin's original work."

Abstract
This paper explains that the company General Dynamics was founded to generate value meant for shareholders through the use of industrial dynamics by harnessing technology which captures motion, energy, potential and development. The author points out that the strength of the company emanates from the expertise of the core technologies, which form the markets addressed, and the accurate implementation of the management's vision for getting the maximum return by fulfilling the requirements of the customer, present and in the future. The paper concludes that strategic planning is the sole path in which a top management impact the manner in which the organization functions; therefore, in an organization like General Dynamics, the planning process undergoes constant improvement, which is executed continually at the tactical stage across the entire company.

"Employee recognition is not a just a pretty gesture to do for people. Employee recognition constitutes a communication instrument which strengthens and rewards the most crucial results people build for the business. When people are recognized effectively, there is a strengthening of the preferred means of recognition, the action and behaviors which is most often desired to be repeated. An efficient employee recognition system is simple, instantaneous and powerfully reinforcing. When the employee recognition processes is considered, this is equally powerful for the organization as well as the employee."

Abstract
This paper first defines mechanics, a branch of study that deals with the influence of forces acting on bodies and dynamic responses of bodies to the imposition of those forces, and then lists the three different subdivision of mechanics. Included in this subdivision is dynamics, which the paper also explains and describes as it relates to the study of mechanics.
From the Paper
"Life without motion is better explained as death. A living being is said to be having life only when the walls of the heart engage in pumping the blood, when the blood circulates through the entire body, when nerves impulse electrically from brain to toe, lungs move to bring oxygen, food transports through the stomach and intestines, when the iris expands and contracts, when the eyeball rotates, etc. Not only in the living beings, the riddles of the non-living items like recoiling of a fired gun, acceleration of an automobile, action of a spinning top, the motion of a space rocket can also be broken down in terms of the analysis of motion."

Abstract
This paper discusses how the concept of equilibrium can be applied to all sorts of decisions made every day, with the individual making the choice on the basis of supply and demand and whether the cost is rising or falling or in equilibrium. The writer examines how the concept can be applied in making decisions and developing arrangements regarding the use of any good, such as the family car, when that car has to be used by two or more people.
From the Paper
"Equilibrium in economic terms is achieved when supply and demand are matched, when the production of a good matches the demand for that good. This seems clear when it is applied to the manufacturing of goods and services, showing that the cost reaches a point where it is not influenced by outside factors because the two factors that shape price are in equilibrium, are matched. This can be applied to all sorts of decisions made every day, with the individual making the choice on the basis of supply and demand and whether the cost is rising or falling or in equilibrium."

Abstract
This paper offers a brief explanation of the dynamical hypothesis in artificial intelligence and compares it to the computational hypothesis. The paper points out that the two hypotheses do not necessarily conflict with each other and that the certain aspects of the dynamical hypothesis actually embrace the computational hypothesis.
From the Paper
"Dynamics forms the general framework for growing amounts of work in psychophysics, perception, motor control, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, situated robotics and autonomous agents research, artificial intelligence, and social psychology. It is central to a number of general approaches, such as ecological psychology, synergetics, and morphodynamics (Smolensky 1998)."
