Study Notes
Understanding the Self
-
Dimensions of Self/Identity: Social factors, personality, and physical appearance are key dimensions; environmental factors are not explicitly listed as a primary dimension.
-
Heredity: The transmission of traits from parents to offspring.
The Biological Self
- Bioecological Systems Theory: Proposed by Urie Bronfenbrenner. Components include microsystem, mesosystem, and exosystem; a "psychosystem" is not part of the theory.
The Social Self
-
Collectivism: Characterized by cooperative behavior and group participation; a focus on individual attributes is not a characteristic.
-
Gender Roles: Socially constructed roles, traits, attitudes, behaviors, and values attributed to men and women.
-
Irresponsible Sexual Behavior Consequences: Include early pregnancy, risk of STDs (including AIDS caused by HIV); increased self-esteem is NOT a consequence.
The Digital Self
- Online Disinhibition Effect: The tendency to engage in behaviors online that one wouldn't in real life.
The Emotional Self
-
Emotional Regulation Skills: Self-awareness, mindful awareness, and cognitive reappraisal are useful skills; emotional suppression is not.
-
Emotional Intelligence: The ability to understand one's own emotions and those of others, and to manage emotions effectively. Bar-On's E.I. Competencies Model includes self-perception, self-expression, and interpersonal components; cognitive abilities are not part of this specific model.
-
Emotion vs. Feeling: Emotion refers to the subjective perception of what one experiences when an emotion arises.
The Spiritual Self
-
Spirituality Benefits: Include a sense of positivity, contentment, and serenity; alignment of beliefs with actions; increased material wealth is NOT necessarily a benefit.
-
Spirituality vs. Religion: Spirituality refers to adherence to a belief system and practices associated with a tradition, while Religion is a more formalized system of beliefs and practices.
-
Logotherapy: A concept proposed by Viktor E. Frankl.
The Mental Self
-
Frontal Lobe Function: Controls mental reasoning, planning, decision-making, and working memory; language comprehension and sensory perception are primarily handled by other lobes.
-
Working Memory: The ability to hold information in mind and use it to complete tasks.
Multiple Intelligences & Triarchic Theory
-
Multiple Intelligences (Howard Gardner): Includes linguistic, logical-mathematical, and spatial intelligences; emotional intelligence is not explicitly included in Gardner's model. Spatial intelligence refers to the ability to perceive the visual-spatial world accurately.
-
Triarchic Theory (Robert Sternberg): Includes practical, creative, and analytical intelligences; emotional intelligence is not part of Sternberg's Triarchic Theory. Practical intelligence is the ability to get along in different contexts.
The Internet
-
Internet Purposes: Social interaction, information acquisition and generation, and entertainment are primary purposes; physical exercise is not a primary purpose.
-
Online Self-Disclosure: The tendency to self-disclose more online than in real life (further details cut off in the provided text).
