Humanities Homework Help

I’m working on a Psychology exercise and need support.

Part 1: On Page 5 of Chapter 4, you will come across the Twenty Statements. The text suggests you fill out five lines. Go ahead and do that on your own – you do not have to share your statements specifically, but do say something about what you learned from doing this exercise. What do you notice within the context of what you learned throughout the rest of the chapter?

What do you think about Linville’s notion of self-complexity? Are you someone who is high or low in self-complexity? Do you agree or disagree with the researchers’ findings that self-complexity serves as a good buffer against stress?

How do you make sense of a chapter on “the self” fitting in a class called social psychology? What is social about one’s “self”?

Part 2: Identify two bits of info you gathered about attitudes from Chapter 4 that you found particular interesting. Also, when was the last time you were persuaded to do something? Using terms from the reading, what were the mechanisms with which you were persuaded?
