This review examines the complex relationship between depression, medication, and cognitive processes, revealing implicit cognitive frameworks that affect depression. It examines how automatic thinking and cognitive schemas affect depression-related emotions and behaviors using the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale. We examine how antidepressants affect cognition and emotion, including automatic thinking, cognitive schemas, and emotional well-being. It stresses evidence-based depression treatment and the placebo effect. The study compares cognitive therapy's long-term benefits on patients' pessimism, self-view, and mood versus medication's, focusing on cognitive schema modification. The study examines pharmaceutical users' cognitive reactivity and relapse triggers using mood induction to understand depression relapse vulnerability better. Neuroimaging is also used to examine metabolic activity and brain areas after cognitive treatment and medication to determine how each treatment affects memory consolidation and cognitive functioning. This thorough study explains the complicated interaction between depression, pharmacological therapy, and cognitive processes, enhancing depression understanding and empirically supported mental health approaches.

“…Psychological trauma survivors may have hidden maladaptive schemas that medicine suppresses. Stress can bring back these schemas as outmoded symptoms (Aljaberi et al, 2023). Medicated people who are emotionally insulated from symptoms have mildly negative cognitive schemas (Boschloo et al, 2019).…”

This study investigated the readability level of second-grade secondary school scientific stream Chemistry and Physics textbooks in Jordan, determining the effect of gender on the degree of readability, in addition to knowing the order of the textbooks according to the degree of their readability in both books. The current study was conducted to determine the readability level of chemistry and physics textbooks by involving 300 second-grade secondary school students of the public schools affiliated with the Directorate of Education, Jordan. Four Cloze tests were prepared from different topics of both textbooks to measure their readability. The test included four texts with 20 words omitted from each text, and the texts were presented in the same format as in the textbooks, with clear instructions provided for the students. A pilot sample outside the study sample was administered with the test-retest method to confirm the reliability of the four tests for both textbooks. The findings revealed that physics textbooks had a higher level of readability than chemistry textbooks. A significant difference (p≤0.05) was observed based on the type of textbook in the readability of chemistry and physics textbooks. The scientific texts in the chemistry textbook were ordered in light of their readability level. In contrast, the scientific texts in the physics textbook were not ordered in light of their readability level. The study concluded that the readability level of Jordanian Chemistry and Physics textbooks of the second grade of the scientific stream differed significantly (p≤0.05). The study recommends that the Jordan Ministry of Education should appoint a panel of experts to review the textbooks and make the necessary changes to improve their readability level.

“…Numerous scholarly investigations have been conducted to explore the impact of structures of power on research within the field of social psychology. Research has demonstrated the influence of dominant ideologies and social power imbalances on the scope and orientation of academic studies (Al-Tammemi et al, 2022;Mohammed et al, 2022;Mohammed et al, 2023). Research that centers on marginalized groups and other points of view has frequently been marginalized or disregarded within the field of mainstream social psychology.…”

This study provides an examination of the dynamic relationship between power and knowledge within the realm of social psychology, surpassing conventional narratives. The field of social psychology has historically been shaped by prevailing narratives that serve to uphold and perpetuate established power dynamics. This study adopts a critical standpoint, interrogating the mechanisms through which power influences the generation of knowledge as well as the formulation of theories. This study aims to enhance this study’s comprehension of power and knowledge in the field of social psychology by engaging in the deconstruction of conventional narratives. This study employs a multidimensional approach to examine the diverse manifestations of power within the field, encompassing societal power structures, organisational dynamics, and personal viewpoints. Through the process of interrogating prevailing discourses and exploring alternative perspectives, this research uncovers latent power dynamics that influence the formulation of research inquiries, the selection of methodologies, and the interpretation of findings. Through the incorporation of a wide range of voices and perspectives, it becomes possible to cultivate a more comprehensive comprehension of power dynamics and generate knowledge that is equitable and fair in its social implications. This study enhances the author’s understanding of the dynamic relationship between power and knowledge within the field of social psychology, thereby enabling a transformative perspective on the examination of human behaviour and society
