Reflections on Reading Social Psychology
Like many natural sciences, social psychology still does not have a definition that is generally accepted by all psychologists. But first, I want to talk about the source of my interest in this subject. The object of social work is people, which is the interaction between people and the environment. No matter when and where, people's mentality and behavior are always influenced by the existence of others, groups and the whole society. Learning this subject will help us to know ourselves better, improve the consciousness of behavior, enhance the adaptability of society, and help us to observe and understand people in new ways, so as to understand the meaning of human behavior and the relationship between people and the surrounding world more accurately. This kind of observation and understanding is very important for young people who are about to embark on social guidance.
Social psychology is a subject that studies people's social psychology and social behavior laws from the perspective of social interaction. It has great vitality, and its main research objects are social psychology and social behavior, social communication psychology and behavior, group psychology and social psychology. It also belongs to its own methodology, mainly including general methodology and specialized methodology, as well as specific research methods of specific disciplines, such as observation, psychological test, archival research and so on.
Seeing this, I don't think I think of some classic psychological films. The Silence of the Lambs and A Beautiful Mind, which became famous for a while, are also classic psychological films until now. Hannibal, a psychopathic psychologist in The Silence of the Lambs, helped policewomen investigate cases through psychological knowledge; Crazy mathematicians in a beautiful mind have hallucinations because they can't stand the discrimination of others against themselves and academics.
The beauty of these films is that they use some psychological professional knowledge to bring hallucination, awakening, emotion and other elements into full play. Now I even feel that studying psychology is sometimes through others' clearer understanding of themselves.
In this book, it also appears? Social personality? This word. In psychology, personality is also called personality, but there is still no exact definition. Allport believes that personality is the dynamic organization of an individual's internal psychophysical system, which determines the uniqueness of a person's thoughts and behaviors. And Chen Zhonggeng, a famous personality psychologist in China, defines personality like this: Personality is an individual's inherent behavior tendency, which is characterized by constantly changing totality and comprehensiveness, a persistent self with dynamic consistency and continuity, and a physical and mental organization that gives people characteristics in the process of socialization? . After reading these concepts, it is really big, but vaguely, we really feel some personality characteristics. Such as plasticity, autonomy and passivity, and some relative independence. Seeing this, I remembered that many things I am doing now seem to be related to these characteristics. ? People on earth are good at living. People on earth are good at living. The same nature varies from upbringing to upbringing. Without education, there will be deviations.
? Aren't these classic works related to the plasticity, passivity and independence of personality? The purpose of reading and learning knowledge is to be different, break the naturalness of human beings, and thus shape their sociality. The same,? People have different opinions, right? There are no two people who look exactly alike, let alone two people who have exactly the same personality. What we are talking about now is probably what we are talking about. Sticking to your own personality is the truest self.
Speaking of psychological activities, I have to say that attitude is a common concern in people's daily life. Attitude not only determines the direction and intensity of people's inner activities, but also dominates the external actions. In a sense, knowing a person's attitude can predict his actions; Changing a person's attitude can change his social behavior. This is a crucial point in psychology. Now there are more and more prejudices in our society, and the so-called prejudice is actually a small part of social attitudes. For example, urban residents' prejudice against migrant workers and journalists' prejudice against interviewees in interviews are all unfair and unreasonable negative attitudes towards people and things, often rigid, excessively biased and biased, and often preconceived and highly subjective, so prejudice is terrible! Always remind yourself to eliminate prejudices and establish a good social attitude.
