What is duality or polarity principle in psychology?
Its the principle that animals (including humans) bond most with those that alternately are kind and cruel to them.
The experiment used monkeys in 3 groups.
Then the results were:
These (worrying) results imply that the strongest allegiance is obtained by being capriciously cruel and kind, like some barbaric tyrant.
Additional notes:
(a) I do not know if that 3rd group had also become neurotic, which is what you would expect.
(b) I don't know if this has also been related to the Stockholm syndrome in terrorist hostages.
Cognitive Intelligence
What subjects do you need to study psychology?
I am guessing this question is aimed at someone in high school seeking to study psychology at the college level. If so, it depends a little on your goals, but psychology is a fairly broad field, so most subjects will benefit you.
Obviously psychology, if available, will help. Biology is likely the next most helpful. A course in statistics as early as possible (and keep taking them) would be a benefit. SOME social studies courses can help (to the extent that they deal with motivations and approach their topics as a social science) BUT it might not help so this one is less recommended. English and Math can never hurt. If you want to go into counseling fields, I would suggest English more strongly. You will need good writing skills, but literature often deals with different ways of thinking, etc. It also helps to be a peer counselor or get some experience if you plan this route. Foreign languages would provide an added edge (especially Spanish for most places). For more experimental areas, you should take math at least through calculus (for counseling, just stats is fine). For biological areas, chemistry and even physics would help. For cognitive areas, a computer science course would be a good idea. Basic computers skills will be needed, but that is true for almost any field.
I suppose I would say: Bio, Stats, English, Other Math, Other Sciences, Social Studies, Computers in that order. But the good news is that almost every class will be of some help. I would claim that music or art will not but there are therapies desiged around each as well as disciplines of psychology that research musical perception (and others on musical expertise). And there is a branch called Sports Psychology too. So maybe the right approach is to take what you are interested in but be somewhat balanced in your courses rather than taking a ton from one area.
Are some beliefs or cognitions too sacred for psychologists to challenge?
As long as those beliefs are working out for the person's life, then there is no problem. However, when there is not a congruence between the belief and the life the person leads, the subject needs to be brought up and examined. Psychologists are trained to help people understand the effect of beliefs and to help them discover how to adapt.. It is more like a civil discussion than a parent telling someone what to do.

The use of psychology in coaching is normally referred to in the context of the coach's understanding of how psychology may be applied in coaching. This may refer to different approaches to coaching, for example humanistic, Gestalt or cogntive behavioural. Or it may be about the psychology behind the way people learn, or change their behaviour. A psychologically minded coach will have a psychological framework for the work that they do that is based on some evidence.
