According to the Keirsey Temperament Sorter, my social style is Guardian. After reviewing the description, I agree with that as my social style because almost everyone I know calls me the “mom”. I’m always taking charge and making sure everyone has everything they need or more. It makes me feel good about myself to help others. The core characteristics of a Guardian are they tend to be dutiful, cautious, humble, and focused on credentials, they pride themselves on being dependable, helpful, and hardworking, they make loyal mates, responsible parents, and stabilizing leaders and lastly, they are concerned citizens who trust authority, join groups, seek security, prize gratitude, and dream of meting out justice. (Keirsey.)
Guardians make up about 40 to 45 percent of the population. They are down to earth and follow rules and take pride in being dependable and trustworthy. There are 4 different types of Guardians, the Guardian Supervisor, Guardian Inspector, Guardian Provider, and Guardian Protector. The Guardian Protector seems to fit me best compared to the other types.

How do you apply in 100 words?The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment is designed to help people identify and gain some understanding around how they take in information and make decisions, the patterns of perception and judgment, as seen in normal, healthy behavior (Myers Briggs 2023). This assessment outlines how certain aspects of a person’s behavior and personality can dictate how they will react to different situations whether in a personal or professional setting. Personality refers to the relatively enduring pattern of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that characterize a person, along with the psychological processes behind those characteristics (McShane et al., 2022). In essence, it is the bundle of characteristics that make us similar to or different from other people. We estimate an individual’s personality by what he or she says and does, and we infer the person’s internal states-including thoughts and emotions-from these observable behaviors (McShane et al.,…

What specific steps can you start taking today to counteract the cognitive biases you have? Choose one bias you feel most applies to you, and develop and explain a plan to counteract it.

overtrusting shady sources
undertrusting reliable sources overtrusting anecdotes
overtrusting hearsay
overtrusting my own memory
closed-mindedness
open-mindedness to a fault
math biases
overconfidence
social pressure of conformity
social pressure of normalcy

rationalization
Follow the Unit 7 reading “A Short Guide to Counteracting Biases” in creating your plan to mitigate your bias, and include the following in it:

With more than a third of American children and adolescents’ overweight, you would think that Mattel’s slender Barbie doll would be a good role model for little girls. Not so, according to some critics. If Barbie was a real woman, she would have less that 17 percent body fat, a neck too thin to hold her head up, a waist too small to house a full liver and intestines, and ankles and feet too tiny to walk. One group of researchers estimated the likelihood of a woman having Barbie’s body at one in 100,000. Yet some women strive for impossible bodies, with more than 20 million suffering from eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia. Other research has shown that 40 to 60 percent of preadolescent girls are concerned about their weight, and almost 70 percent of thin models influence their perceptions of an ideal weight. Statistics like these cause consumer advocacy group such as the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood (CCFC) to call for action, especially when targeting young…

Case 2-1.Self-Concept, Self-Congruency Theory and Consumer Behavior:Take some time for introspection. Thinking deeply, write a description of the characteristics [core beliefs, psychographics (activities, interest, and opinions)], etc. that define your actual self. What products, and what specific brands have you bought in certain product categories that reflect your actual self?
Do the same thing as you did in question two, except do this for your ideal and possible selves. Since as a student you may not have the financial resources to have already bought many of these products, don’t place any emphasis on whether or not you can currently afford these products and brands; what would you buy, if you could, to reflect these aspirational selves.

Many people assume that personality must be related to consumer behavior. Knowing a customer's personality profile should help predict what she or he will buy, and how decisions will be made in the marketplace. Researchers, however, have been frustrated in their search for a unified theory of personality that would explain consumer behavior. Use trait theory to explain why this is so. (There are 6 specific problems)

You work for a real estate broker who recently hired two gay realtors, Steven and Shauna, to be a part of the team. During a staff meeting, your boss mentions an article she read about gay clients feeling ostracized in the real estate market. She tells the new employees she hired to help facilitate the home-buying process for gay buyers and sellers. She specifically instructs them to focus on recruiting gay clients, even telling them that they should pass along any straight customers to one of the straight realtors on the team. A few weeks later, Shauna reports that she has made her first sale to a straight couple that is expecting a baby. During the next staff meeting, your boss congratulates Shauna on her sale but again reiterates that Shauna and Steven should pass along straight clients to another realtor so they can focus on recruiting gay clients. After the meeting, Shauna tells you that she thinks it is unfair that she should have to focus on gay clients and that she is thinking…
