PSY 236 Lecture Notes - Lecture 20: Relational Frame Theory, Mindset, Psy
Document Summary
Remember: personality = developing configuration of psychological individuality that expresses a person"s recognizable uniqueness, wherein life stories are layered over salient goals and values, which are layered over dispositional traits . Me - object like; can be observed and described. Self-as-process - the ways that thoughts, feelings, behavior work together. Self-as-content - the facts about who i am , the details of life, the story . Everything you think you know about traits and abilities. Not necessarily accurate or shared by observers. When we relate things we want to remember to ourselves, this can lead to stronger memories. Identity is a quality of the self; it"s not the same thing as the self . Seen in the stories told about the self. Continuity - combining all of the elements of self sto create a sense of being the same person across time. Difference - being different from everyone else.
