The course introduces students to the fundamental principles of human behavior and development, with particular emphasis upon the role of behavior within the context of illness. It is designed to acquaint students with the basic tools, concepts and methods for the study of health, illness and community life by focusing on the disciplines of psychology, medical anthropology, sociology and community oriented health care.

This document provides an overview of behavioral science and psychology. It discusses key topics like psychology, behavior, mental processes, social psychology, the goals of psychology (describe, predict, explain/understand, control), areas of psychology like clinical psychology and industrial/organizational psychology, and behavioral change theories like social learning theory and social cognitive theory. The document serves as notes for the study of behavioral science.

This document discusses research and its characteristics. It defines research as a systematic investigation to search for new facts or solutions to problems. Research is scientific in nature and uses a systematic methodology. There are two main types of research - basic research which expands knowledge and applied research which solves practical problems. Good scientific research follows key principles - it is objective, uses empirical data, allows for generalization of findings, and can be used to develop new theories.

Research is a serious academic activity with a set of objectives to explain or analyse or understand a problem or finding solution(s) for the problem(s) by adopting a systematic approach in collecting, organizing and analyzing the information relating to the problem.

This document contains a question bank on research methodology covering 6 units: 1. Introduction to research - defining research, differences between methods and methodology, objectives of research, research process, criteria for good research. 2. Research design - meaning and significance, differences from problem approach, exploratory vs descriptive design, research hypotheses, experimental designs. 3. Sampling methods - sample design, probability vs non-probability sampling, random sampling, stratified sampling, sampling bias, sample size. 4. Data collection methods - primary vs secondary data, surveys, questionnaires, interviews, observation, case studies, attitudes measurement techniques. 5. Attitude measurement and scaling - types of scales, sources of error,

Historically the word development in its present context is of a very recent origin. It was used in the covenant of League of Nations and much later by the charter of the United Nations. The concept of development acquired more significance after the Second World War in 1945, partly as a requirement to help reconstruct the countries, which had been ruined by the two world wars, and later extended towards development of countries emerging from colonial rule.

According to Gittinger (1982) and Todaro (1986) planning is an activity, which minimizes future risks that is minimizing the unknown and maximizing the known.

Quantum mechanics is the fundamental theory in physics that explains the behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and subatomic scales, where it deviates from the laws of classical physics. Key concepts include wave-particle duality, where particles like electrons can act as both waves and particles, and quantum superposition, where a quantum object can exist in multiple states simultaneously until measured.
