Hallucinations and psychology?

I’m thinking of going into the field of psychology since I was always fascinated on how people mind works and the art hallucination and such.

I love watching Derren Brown and Criss angels, the excitement and the curiosity of how they do it always keep me wanting more of it. But I heard from some people that once I go into the field of psychology the hallucination effect or trick disappears.

Is this true?

I really don’t want the hallucination or magic effect to go away when I watch their shows. It really got me to think twice before going into this field.
Wops I meant illusion not hallucination

what is the psychology of the people who always say”I must be loved by everyone for everything I do,” ?

Double majoring in psychology and photography, minor in marketing?

My dream school is NYU. The more I look into it, the more I try to figure out what to major/minor in and what those majors/minors could lead me to. I want to be a fashion photographer or a psychologist. I love photography – its my biggest passion. Yet psychology, especially behavioral, is an extremely interesting field to me, and could contribute immensely to forming a unique photographic style. Marketing is extremely important though when it comes to Fashion photography, because you need to know what the designers want and apply your photographic style to this… Do you think that this combination of majors with the marketing minor is a plausible idea?

Recommendations of Good Psychology Books?

I love reading about the human mind… it does not have to be about things like Freud or anything. I am willing to read things like the ‘Communist Manifesto’, etc.

Which Major will be useful: BA Anthropology, BA Psychology, BS Biology Degree?

I’m a high school student and will graduate next year. I’m in a really stressful time right now. My parents and friends asked me what would i want to take in Uni…and i just felt blank. I love social sciences and biology, like travelling (especially in third world countries), i have a great interest in learning different cultures and studying animals, so i got these 2 different interests. However, my dad disagrees with me,,,he thinks if i take anthropology, i wouldn’t be able to find work easily and it would be useless.
I prefer more to study majors in Humanities, Social sciences, and since 4 years ago, i have had an interest in psychology. But i don’t really know how to put it all together…I was concerned with what kind of job in which field would i be in.
And i’m having a dillemma between BA and BS degrees, I’m afraid i will take the wrong one and will struggle to find any jobs/professions… My school counsellor doesn’t do any help!
Any advice for me? Thanks.

Cultural Psychology or Psychological Anthropology?

I’m planning on applying to graduate school soon and I’m not exactly sure which route I want to take. Should I get my Ph.D. in Cultural Psychology or Psychological Anthropology? My undergraduate degrees are in Psychology, Anthropology, and International Relations with concentrations in the Middle East.

Pro’s of Anthropology:
I love culture and I love talking about cultural relativism and it’s limits.
I like critical/constructivist social theory a lot.
I like to argue my point.
I want to travel and understand cultures on a first hand basis.
I like making connections between very different environmental/behavioral factors (biology, politics, economy, religion, gender, etc…)
I think its the most ethical and socially conscious discipline in the social sciences.
I like the creative/humanistic nature of anthropological writing styles.
I like the qualitative methods of anthropology.

Cons:
I’m in a committed relationship and spending a year or more overseas doing my dissertation research could have consequences for that.
I’ve been told it takes longer to get your Ph.D. in Anthropology than in Psychology.
A Ph.D. in Psychological Anthropology does not allow me to get a license to counsel people of different cultures (an application of my studies that I’m really interested in doing).
Explaining what anthropology is to people who don’t know…kind of sucks.

Pro’s of Psychology:
I will be eligible to get a license to counsel people and deal with mental illnesses (even if most of them are culturally constructed).
I find helping people with their emotional/psychological problems to be rewarding.
I think “abnormal psychology” to be really, really interesting.
I like performing experiments and assessments.
I will be more marketable and have more opportunities for application with a Ph.D. in Psychology.
My dissertation in psychology will not take me away from my loved ones for years at a time.

Cons:
I have a tendency to argue with psychologists about the cultural limits of their experiments and theories.
I find much more ethical problems in psychology and think its more judgmental than anthropology (then again it could be argued that much of anthropology’s inaction is unethical).
There is much less attention to different cultures in psychology and it seems that culture is talked about (simplified) differently.

So thoughts? Is there anyway to combine the best of both worlds: like getting a license to counsel and maybe splitting up the amount of time I have to spend away with a Ph.D. in Anthropology; or having a critical, cultural, and qualitative perspective with a Ph.D. in Psychology?
