4-1 Discussion Changing Minds, Changing Behaviors Can we see ourselves in the films adhering to society norms? Do you think we make decisions based on free will, or do we allow our assumed identities to shape our actions? Most people, as depicted in movies, have a propensity for questionable collaboration. According to studies conducted by Stanford and Milgram, people are more likely to engage in vandalism after witnessing an official response. People are more inclined to engage in an activity after witnessing it being carried out by others, as shown by the Bystander Effect. The general public usually assumes that a man who is sleeping outside is homeless. When they were later seen again, this time in more formal attire, everyone took notice. Human choice depends on the availability of free will. The biases they've picked up and the experiences they've had shape their viewpoints. The subtle impact of tradition often leads us to conform to it unwittingly. Please give an example of someone who accepts authority without challenging it. After the spread of covid-19, most people were required to wear masks whenever they went outside in public. This precaution was taken to ensure the continuity of our normal way of life in the face of potential threats from beyond our borders. Even though we claim to value honesty, our actions may not always reflect that value. Please describe a time in your own life when you experienced cognitive dissonance. My brain starts playing tricks on me every year around the time I get my flu shot. I and my family have been persuaded by a number of people that getting flu shots is a must. Our immune systems, I believe, will ensure our continued good health. How do social and cultural norms affect the propensity of people from various cultural backgrounds to follow rules? The extent to which societal norms influence individuals' actions varies from one culture to the next. The norms of society have a greater impact on behavior in collectivist societies, while in individualistic cultures, success is prized more highly. People in collectivist societies are less likely to try to stand out from the crowd in an effort to maintain the status quo. When applied to these fields of study, how do ideas like central and peripheral persuasion routes, dispositional and situational attribution, conformity, cognitive dissonance, and obedience fare? The problem of programming in this area is linked to the different ways in which emotional intelligence might be conceived. Self-reflection and the analysis of one's own actions can lead to better judgment and performance in future undertakings. What's more, it can help you understand why people act the way they do.
