  2. Bisection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection

    The 'interior' or 'internal bisector' of an angle is the line, half-line, or line segment that divides an angle of less than 180° into two equal angles. The 'exterior' or 'external bisector' is the line that divides the supplementary angle (of 180° minus the original angle), formed by one side forming the original angle and the extension of ...

  3. Incircle and excircles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle_and_excircles

    The center of the incircle, called the incenter, can be found as the intersection of the three internal angle bisectors. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The center of an excircle is the intersection of the internal bisector of one angle (at vertex A , for example) and the external bisectors of the other two.

  4. Internal working model of attachment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_working_model_of...

    Internal working models are considered to result out of generalized representations of past events between attachment figure and the child. [11] [2] [3] Thus, in forming an internal working model a child takes into account past experiences with the caregiver as well as the outcomes of past attempts to establish contact with the caregiver. [3]

  5. Incenter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incenter

    A line that is an angle bisector is equidistant from both of its lines when measuring by the perpendicular. At the point where two bisectors intersect, this point is perpendicularly equidistant from the final angle's forming lines (because they are the same distance from this angles opposite edge), and therefore lies on its angle bisector line.

  6. Semiperimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiperimeter

    The length of the internal bisector of the angle opposite the side of length a is [1] = +. In a right triangle, the radius of the excircle on the hypotenuse equals the semiperimeter. The semiperimeter is the sum of the inradius and twice the circumradius.

  7. Locus of control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_of_control

    Of relevance to both health psychology and the psychology of religion is the work of Holt, Clark, Kreuter and Rubio (2003) on a questionnaire to assess spiritual-health locus of control. The authors distinguished between an active spiritual-health locus of control (in which "God empowers the individual to take healthy actions" [ 38 ] ) and a ...

  8. Psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychology

    Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behavior. [1] [2] Its subject matter includes the behavior of humans and nonhumans, both conscious and unconscious phenomena, and mental processes such as thoughts, feelings, and motives. Psychology is an academic discipline of immense scope, crossing the boundaries between the natural and social ...

  9. Attribution (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attribution_(psychology)

    Fritz Heider discovered Attribution theory during a time when psychologists were furthering research on personality, social psychology, and human motivation. [5] Heider worked alone in his research, but stated that he wished for Attribution theory not to be attributed to him because many different ideas and people were involved in the process. [5]
