Post 8- Psych Memes

Hey bloggers, I have made a few memes for you to explore today! I will include the image and explain the psychology meme after! Enjoy!

False Consensus effect
This makes an individual think everyone has the same ideas as them, and it is very shocking to find out your opinions are unique from something you thought was standard. Here is a good article! Also, I think this could be a good example of Theory of Mind, depending on your interpretation. Learn about this here!


Milgram Experiment
In the Milgram Prison Experiment, volunteers were encouraged to push a shock button (as instructed by an authority figure). Most felt pressured to keep pressing more-intense buttons, but it made them feel wrong inside. Click this link to learn more (no one will get shocked).


Conformity (Asch Line Test)
People were shown lines and asked to match which have the same length. Actors intentionally chose the incorrect answer, and the following, unknowing participant would go with the group. Click here for a more detailed explanation!


Classical Conditioning
Pavlov rang a bell and after a while, his dog learned to expect food. Conditioned response, or a learned behavior. Learn more about this experience here!


Stanford Prison Experiment
In this experiment, some were selected to be fake "prison guards" while the other individuals acted as though they were inmates in the facility. Each actor assumed their role, and fake prisoners followed all orders of the fake guards. Read about it here!


I included extra memes I didn't want to showcase with my favorite 5, so the rest are below (just extras, some may not have links or explanations)!




Freud's Psychosexual Stages of Development (Oedipus Complex)


Assimilation
This little girl observed a group of geese (I think and hope). Likely, she has never seen geese before, so she assumed it was an animal she was familiar with, a chicken! (formerly a Vine I made into this meme about assimilation). This article has some info!


Assimilation
Kylie Jenner has lived in a huge mansion her entire life, so she is unfamiliar with farm animals, so it seems. In a viral clip from KUWTK, Kylie mistakenly asked if the pig was a "chicken" when her mother brought it inside their home. Maybe her hippocampus isn't working or she is facing amnesia (can you tell why I put these memes at the end?)


Freud's Anal Stage in Psychosexual Development
Freud is so odd. Research or don't (you probably should not)

I hope you enjoyed today's post, and stay tuned for one more blog this year!

Brain Changes after Losing A Loved One Losing a loved one brings upon many new and difficult emotions that many struggle to navigate. Many people say grief gets easier over time, and the brain has a lot to do with this! As people form new relationships, the brain adapts and sends new signals to encode these bonds. So, if an individuals mother recently passed, they may struggle to connect with new people since she was "loving and raised" her. Facing reality may be very difficult, as shown in the stages of grief, and denial is a common way to ignore life's problems. It is hard for humans to cope with death since we have such little understanding of it, so a lot of people pretend deceased loves ones are on vacation, not actually dead. They try to logically reason solutions because the idea of someone they spent so much time with now being completely gone is not easy to wrap their head around. There may also be regrets and many questions as you are experiencing, which is all ...

Post 1: Icebreaker

  In December 2020, I created a 'Little Library' and placed it at a local food pantry and family center. From this, I received a Silver Award, the second-highest award a Girl Scout can receive. Now, I am an 11th-year Girl Scout, and I hope to create a service project and receive my Gold Award before graduation. (P.S. it's cookie season so HMU in class for Girl Scout cookies $5/box!!!!) If you're interested in learning more about this award, here is a link to the Girl Scout information site:  https://www.girlscouts.org/en/members/for-girl-scouts/badges-journeys-awards/highest-awards/silver-award.html   Next, here are my four truths and a lie: 1. I watched a documentary showing animal abuse in the agricultural industry in 7th grade and haven't eaten meat since 2. I have been in 2 car collisions/crashes in my life 3. I spun out in my car twice in 2022 but avoided oncoming traffic both times 4. I am fluent in Spanish (started learning in 7th grade and continued after) 5...

Post 2- Your Life Story

My Life Story Today I will share about my life and future goals and predictions Early Life I was born during winter in Houston, Texas to parents in their 40s on February 23 before 2010. I have an older brother, but my parents had several miscarriages before me, so we have a 5 year age gap keeping us apart. My mother always wanted one boy and one girl, so she and I formed a very strong bond because she finally got her baby girl.  First Milestones I first crawled at 7 months old, I stood up two weeks later, then two months after that I began walking! Also, I said my first word "babba," refering to my bottle and the next day I said "dada," much to my mother's dismay. Early Creativity in Toddler Years Early on, I was sent to daycare so my parents could work their office jobs, but I hated it and would throw a tantrum nearly every day. Although it was a struggle getting me inside, I was an avid member of the art class, and I was selected to present some of my work in ...
