Schizophrenia and A Beautiful Mind

Maladaptive: John Nash never really liked to go out at first, he always wanted to stay in and do his work, his math work. Maladaptive is avoiding situations and adjusting poorly to new situations. Even when he did go out with some of the guys he was always thinking about his work and different theories.

Unjustifiable: When John Nash put the baby in the tub he thought that somebody was watching him so he really did think it was justifiable to do that, just to leave the baby alone in the tub. However; his wife and all of us obviously know that it is unjustifiable to leave a baby alone in a bath tub.

Dreams and Latent Content

One dream I had that was reoccurring was probably about a year ago (few times in that year), I had a dream that my boyfriend of a year at the time was with me at a ranch of some sort with my friends and I. He owns a 92 Cadillac, it is quit beastly so in my dream he had fire come out of his exhaust and he knew that, so when my friends were standing behind his car he purposely started up the engine to burn my friends. I got mad at him of course because all my friends were hurt so than he got mad at me and said we needed to talk, I went with him around the corner and he said it was time to break up, I just went running and crying than I sat in the gravel somewhere and he came by me trying to comfort me but I just kept pushing him away. After that I woke up but another time I had that same exact dream except he didn't burn my friends with the fire he pushed them into this dangerous pile of chemicals which also burned them. And that would be t end again.

Interpretation: From dreammoods.com it says that if I was dreaming of someone burning alive that I'm being consumed of my own ambitions. But about the break up, it says that it is a way to see that our relationship is moving to the next level and it is just an end of something; leaving something behind but the start of something new or better.

Another dream I had was a few nights ago, I dreamt that I went to a family picnic with my dad and brothers and towards the end my dad and I went to a park but it was more of a rock park, where we could climb higher and higher. We later said our goodbyes and I woke up. However, I rarely see my dad because he just is not in the picture but his sister (my aunt) and my mom are best friends so once in awhile I see him and we catch up.

Interpretation: It says that it symbolized authority and protection. But the rock climbing symbolizes that I am not letting anything get in the way of my goals.

Baby Albert...reading and questions

#1.) I believe it did because Watson and Rayner knew that Albert would end being fearful of the rat and other white furry objects similar to that of the rat. Including a Santa Claus mask, rabbit, dog, and blocks but Albert reacted fearfully to all but the blocks so therefore, Watson and Rayner knew that that would happen after a few times of stricking the metal bar whenever Albert reached for it.

#2.) Albert began to become fearful to all white furry objects because of the white furry rat.

#3.) They paired the feared object which was the rabbit with more pleasant things like ice cream and other special attention as said in the reading.

My Personality Test Results

What aspects of personality does this tell me about?

There has been much research on how people describe others, and five major dimensions of human personality have been found. They are often referred to as the OCEAN model of personality, because of the acronym from the names of the five dimensions.

Openness to Experience/Intellect
	High scorers tend to be original, creative, curious, complex; Low scorers tend to be conventional, down to earth, narrow interests, uncreative.
		You are somewhat conventional.	(Your percentile: 24)
Conscientiousness
	High scorers tend to be reliable, well-organized, self-disciplined, careful; Low scorers tend to be disorganized, undependable, negligent.
		You are neither organized or disorganized.	(Your percentile: 58)
Extraversion
	High scorers tend to be sociable, friendly, fun loving, talkative; Low scorers tend to be introverted, reserved, inhibited, quiet.
		You are neither particularly social or reserved.	(Your percentile: 53)
Agreeableness
	High scorers tend to be good natured, sympathetic, forgiving, courteous; Low scorers tend to be critical, rude, harsh, callous.
		You are neither extremely forgiving nor irritable.	(Your percentile: 44)
Neuroticism
	High scorers tend to be nervous, high-strung, insecure, worrying; Low scorers tend to be calm, relaxed, secure, hardy.
		You aren't particularly nervous, nor calm.	(Your percentile: 43)

What do the scores tell me?

In order to provide you with a meaningful comparison, the scores you received have been converted to "percentile scores." This means that your personality score can be directly compared to another group of people who have also taken this personality test. The percentile scores show you where you score on the five personality dimensions relative to the comparison sample of other people who have taken this test on-line. In other words, your percentile scores indicate the percentage of people who score less than you on each dimension. For example, your Extraversion percentile score is 53, which means that about 53 percent of the people in our comparison sample are less extraverted than you -- in other words, you are neither introverted or extroverted. Keep in mind that these percentile scores are relative to our particular sample of people. Thus, your percentile scores may differ if you were compared to another sample (e.g., elderly British people).

Beauty

Everyone has their own thoughts when it comes to a person being pretty or ugly because everyone see's people differently. Just like in the episode of the Twilight Zone where everyone thought that that very normal looking women was scary looking and thought she was a sick person when really they were the ones who looked like monsters. At least in my eyes because i have been brought up to think beauty is one thing when other people may think beauty is a totally different thing. Yes, I do think beauty changes over time because in the 40's women would make themselves look manly and shapless. Now, women like to show their curves and wear makeup to look natural, that is the beauty of 2010.

Bullying, Harassment, & the Need to Belong

Bullying has always been an issue, through out the 70's, 80's, 90's and now so I'm sure there is no way to completely get rid of bullying and/or harassment because there is always going to be mean people in the world whether we like it or not. Although, I do not think there is any acceptable time to bully someone nor is there an innacceptable time because it should never be okay to hurt someone physically or mentally. I dont think me as one person could change all of Kimberly to be a better place, but I could make sure if I see a kid getting picked on I would help them out and teach the bullies a lesson or two for being mean to an innocent boy or girl. I have never been a bystander to bullying because I'm not I have seen any but I know if I do see it, I will try and stop it. Bully and harassment is not okay in my eyes and should be stopped.
