Interviews with the Experts: Assignment Sheet The Interviews with the Experts Videos are intended to extend your understanding of the material in the textbook by giving you a behind-the-scenes look at aspects of personality and its application by some of the leaders in the field. There are no right or wrong answers, but your grade will be based on the nature, quality, and relevance of your responses. 1. Imagine that you are writing a brief description of this video for people who are considering watching it. How would you characterize or summarize it (in 50-75 words). Dr. Taylor discusses the use of “logotherapy.” This is a psychotherapy exercise that relates to the “will of pleasure”. It can be used to help people find their purpose in life. Experiences in human life can be painful, but this type of therapy seems to be like “transcendence therapy.” This can be used to combat the negatives of the human experience. 2. Identify any three “take-aways” that you got from this video. These could be any points that it made, thoughts that it sparked, or issues or applications that it discussed. Take-Away #1: Logotherapy helps people find their purpose in life Take-Away #2: Dr. Taylor uses a visualization technique with meditation and then asks them how it made them feel and what they were doing Take-Away#3: ”Logo” means “thought” in Greek 3. Imagine that you are writing a review of this video that summarizes your evaluation of it. Please indicate what you liked BEST and LEAST about the video and give it a rating (based on a 5-star system). Note that the evaluation of your response is based on your identifying the things you liked BEST and LEAST, and your assignment of rating, and NOT the number stars you give it or whether you liked or disliked the video. Your evaluations will be helpful in relation to encouraging you to reflect more deeply on the video, and provide us with feedback that can be useful in relation to the value of the video’s use in the future. Be sure to identify: A). What I liked Best: The visualization technique sounds useful and very interesting. I would be willing to try this as I have heard many benefits to meditation and have just never used it. B). What I liked Least (or would like to have heard more about): I would have liked to hear more about the techniques and what the treatment of logotherapy
consists of. C). My overall rating: (1 to 5 stars): _____ 4.5 ______
