Week 2 extra) What symbols do you see, and how do they influence our behavior?

What symbols do you see, and how do they influence our behavior?


Through the symbol of traffic lights, people walk on crosswalks and drive. Through the pictograms of women and men, people enter the bathroom. (That pictogram is sexist... lol) The red day of the calendar is an official holiday. People sigh when they see the 'Closed' sign in front of the restaurant. The ring on the fourth finger is a coupling. Besides, there are so many symbols in our society.

Imagine you and your family are throwing a party for your family friends in your house. What are the stages?

 I think the stage is 'back'.  In this situation, I'll only invite the friendly friends in my house, so, the people who in the party going to be most close friend to me. With close friends we talk about anything, like hating person, talking about crush in somebody or even the physiological phenomenon. And the home. Home is one of the most comfortable place that I can relax my body and my mind. And also, nobody can hear what we say. This is why people love to be at home.   However, we can't talk about this I the public places that everyone can hear this.

Most people are rest in their home when they are tired or have a health issues. And not everyone be on a makeup all the time. Because everyone don't mind about them. But TV idols are different. They have to be perfect in front of the camera. So, I think the front stage of TV idols is all the time when they are in front of the cameras.

Week 5. For example, students will try to conceal their lack of interest in the subject they are studying. What other examples of idealization can we think of?

For example, students will try to conceal their lack of interest in the subject they are studying. What other examples of idealization can we think of? When parents fail to meet their children's expectations, the child experiences frustration. And it is used by children as a material for the same time during the whole Oedipus period and as a material for structuring the self that controls the desire and controls tension. It is natural that an exaggeration of parental importance occurs during this period, which is essentially a time of dependence on parents, while the relationship is based on a desire for a satisfying object. Children form an image of parents who fill everything through their own experience of satisfaction. Idealization changes according to a child's experience of satisfaction, frustration, and anger. Thus, when parents become important regardless of their needs, i.e., when target constancy is established, idealization can be used for increasingly defensive purp...
