Document Summary
Lecture 9 - relationships, mental health, and well-being. Enhancement - think we"re good; interdependent cultures are critical yet sympathetic (balance) Trust - north american - trust, give funds to people; social learning we can trust people, prosocial behaviour. However, once trust is violated no prosocial behaviour happens. Japan - not everyone is part of the ingroup, so don"t trust everyone and don"t believe all the feedback is true. Social support - provision of warmth, supportiveness, or instrumental care. Social exchange - reciprocal exchange of goods and services; tit for tat . Social obligation - expectations of responsibility to in-group members (eg. family, social network, friends) We engage in mimicry to be liked and seen as like them . In the west, the spark is vital, we meet people who do not meet all of our expectations, yet we still fall in love with them! East: love is a privilege; west: love is a choice.
