Pressure of speech is a tendency to speak rapidly and frenziedly, as if
motivated by an urgency not apparent to the listener. The speech
produced, sometimes called pressured speech, is difficult to interrupt and
may be too fast or too tangential for the listener to understand

Image
In psychology, alogia, or poverty of speech, is a general lack of
additional, unprompted content seen in normal speech.

Beliefs are entrenched integrated neural compatibilities,
strategies, configurations, frames of reference, styles of utilization, points
of view, and momentum of one's past. Cognitive data has extremely
strong emotive power. This is illustrated with the concepts of musts and
shoulds in Ellis' theory. Cognitive data is an original construction of
people. People's shoulds become strong desires, goals and necessities
that for them may be non-negotiable. The consequence of belief is the
result of multiple correlational analysis, voting of networks, or conflict
between sponsor-regulator neurons that vector us to a course of action.
The consequences lead to cognitive dissonance or tension that must be
reduced by correlational holographic opponent-processing and creation of
new beliefs to stabilize or adapt the neural firing patterns.
Image
A belief that integrates most experiences may ultimately win out. The
tension is not at its lowest level, causing a search for possible new
integrations.

The prodrome can linger for weeks, or years, before it gives way to psychosis
— or mysteriously disappears without a trace.

it is important to differentiate between developmental etiologies of tantrums as fostered by environment versus temperamental etiologies of tantrums as determined by innate organic idiosyncrasies.
Image
A tantrum may be expressed in a tirade, a protracted speech usually marked by intemperate, vituperative or harshly censorious language.

In music, an arrangement is either a rewriting of a piece of existing music with additional new material or a fleshing-out of a
compositional sketch, such as a lead sheet. If a musical adaptation does not include new material, it is more accurately termed a transcription or orchestration.

[quote="Graham White (1977: 5), reacting to the functionalist notion of socialization"]Without some idea about the individual’s own activity in shaping his social experience our perspective of socialization becomes distorted.[/quote]
Another common criticism of functionalism is that it implies a radical form of semantic holism.

Interactionism, also known as symbolic interactionism (sometimes known
as interpretivism) is a generic sociological paradigm that sees interaction
and meaning as central to society and assumes that meanings are not
inherent but are created through interaction.

A distinction was made between pathos (plural pathe) which is normally
translated as "passion", propathos or instinctive reaction (e.g. turning pale
and trembling when confronted by physical danger) and eupathos, which
is the mark of the Stoic sage (sophos). The eupatheia are feelings
resulting from correct judgment in the same way as the passions result
from incorrect judgment.

Stoicism was a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded in Athens by Zeno
of Citium in the early 3rd century BC. The stoics considered destructive
emotions to be the result of errors in judgment, and that a sage, or
person of "moral and intellectual perfection," would not undergo such
emotions. Stoics were concerned with the active relationship between
cosmic determinism and human freedom, and the belief that it is virtuous
to maintain a will (called prohairesis) that is in accord with nature.
Because of this, the Stoics presented their philosophy as a way of life,
and they thought that the best indication of an individual's philosophy was
not what a person said but how he or she behaved. Later Roman Stoics,
such as Seneca and Epictetus, emphasized that because "virtue is
sufficient for happiness," a sage was immune to misfortune. This belief is
similar to the meaning of the phrase 'stoic calm', though the phrase does
not include the "radical ethical" Stoic views that only a sage can be
considered truly free, and that all moral corruptions are equally vicious.

Stoic doctrine was a popular and durable philosophy, with a following
throughout Greece and the Roman Empire, from its founding until the
closing of all philosophy schools in 529 AD by order of the Emperor
Justinian I, who perceived their pagan character to be at odds with his
Christian faith.


if need be a banner, stoic seems better than else
