Individualist and collectivist cultures • Intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a48QcxQArqo • What can this tell us about cultural differences? • Activity: Please write 20 different statements in response to the simple question: “Who am I?” • Respond as if you were giving the answers to yourself, not someone else. • Write the responses in the order that they occur to you. • Do not censor yourself. • Analysis: Examine each item that you wrote down and next to anything that that implies a “social” response, put an S. • Example: I am a son= family, I am a Catholic= religious group, etc. • If you have S marks for 20% or more of your responses, you would be considered a collectivist.
Debrief • How do you think individualists and collectivists differ in their value systems? • How do you think differences in individualism/collectivism are likely to affect patterns of interaction and relationships within: • Your family? • Your work group? • Your school or community? • Your classroom? • How do you think differences in individualism/collectivism are likely to influence judgments made of other groups and relationships within them? Which orientation is more likely to promote ethnocentrism? Altruism? • What factors share our becoming individualist or collectivist? How do gender, religious convictions, and political attitudes influence individualism/collectivism? • How do these two different orientations affect our personal and social well-being? Should present emphasis be changed? Are there ways of capturing the best of both individualism and collectivism?

The Nature and Nurture of Gender • Two theories of gender typing
Gender Role Behavior Gender role behaviors reflect what society says are appropriate actions for males and females. Through identification with a parent of the same sex, people learn how to behave appropriately. Which jobs are appropriate for males? for females?
Gender studies have shown • Fathers who are very warm toward daughters tend to produce mild tomboyishnessin girls. • Boys whose fathers were absent during preschool years tend to be less aggressive and not as active in sports. • People who are considered mentally healthy tend not to have excessive masculine or feminine qualities. • Children tend to identify with the dominant parent in the household, even across sex lines.
Fathers are more determined that appropriate activities are given to young male children. • People handle babies differently depending on whether they are identified as male or female. • People will assign different characteristics to babies when they are identified as male or female.
Mixing Gender Roles Rigid extremes for gender roles for males and females restrict the full range of human behaviors and emotions. Androgynous people are high in male and female characteristics. Androgynous behavior can lead to more flexibility and willingness to share characteristics of members of the opposite sex.
Gender-Busting Communication Hints (for Males) 1. Do you frequently interrupt females while they are speaking? Try to break the habit. 2. Avoid answering questions with “Nope”and “Yep.” Try to explain more and give some details why you did something. Can you tell me how to get to . . .? 3. Try to open up on personal issues. 4. Ask for help if you need it.
Gender-Busting Communication Hints (for Females) 1. Look people directly in the eye. 2. If men interrupt conversations, assertively direct the conversation back. 3. Do not over-apologize for your behaviors. 4. Talk more often about current events, less about people.
Writing Activity • You will be given an essay prompt that you will respond to individually using your notes if you have them. • Helpful hints: • Find the directive words: • Words like "identify," "describe," and "define" require straightforward definitions or examples that define the concepts. • Words like "explain," "analyze," and "discuss" require extended application of the information to the situations or contexts within the question. • Students should use different terms than those found in the question prompt to answer the question. Simply parroting the question's language is usually not a sufficient demonstration of a student's knowledge. • Use a separate paragraph for each concept addressed in the question. That will help readers find answers more efficiently. • Avoid lengthy introductions. It is not necessary to repeat the stem of the question. • Outlines cannot be graded. Stress that students should write in complete sentences and in paragraph form. • Your essay will be graded in class using a scoring rubric • Write in pen
Writing Prompt • Psychologists conduct research to investigate controversial issues. Consider the following: • Explanations of hypnosis • Children’s behavior (nature v nurture) • The Evolutionary Explanation of human sexuality • Describe the opposing points of view on each of the psychological issues listed above. Your description must provide one argument on each side of the controversy. • For each issue, choose one point of view to support. Using evidence from psychological research, justify why you think this point of view is correct.
Scoring Rubric • We will grade the essay as a class using the scoring rubric provided. • Swap papers with a classmate • Use a different colored pen to score the essay
