When analyzing an individual, it is evident that there are external and internal factors that impact a humans’ behavior. The three basic elements of the multidimensional approach is the person dimension, environmental dimension, and time dimension; within each of the basic elements exists multiple dimensions, such as physical environment, culture, biological, spiritual, event time, and communities (Hutchsion, p. 10, 2012). By understanding of the multidimensional approach, I can analyze an individual in a movie and how multiple factors can affect a person’s behavior. For this assignment, I chose to analyze the main character’s brother, Dicky, in the film The Fighter. After viewing the movie, I could comprehend how the brother’s behavior was influenced by the person dimension and the environment dimension. Cognition and Emotion During Dicky’s time in prison for larceny, arrest, and impersonating a police officer, his behavior in the jail is influenced by his cognition and emotions. According to our textbook, cognition is explained as a persons’ “conscious or preconscious thinking process” (Hutchison, p. 112, 2012). Since the viewers of the film cannot hear Dicky’s thoughts, it is assumed that his behavior illustrates his thoughts while in jail. Jean Piaget’s cognition theory is relevant in Dicky’s situation as he undergoes assimilation, which means “responding to experiences based on existing schemata” (Hutchison, p. 113, 2012). Once Dickey watches the documentary that was
In order to have a personal theory regarding human behavior one must understand the different behaviors through the principals of psychology. Similar to a fingerprint, people are unique and their behaviors/personalities are all different. A person’s personality can have emotional impact in reference to the way they act, speak, react to different situations and the lives of people that they are involved with. Relationships can also be influenced by the way a person behaves and the personality they portray.

In psychology, there are four major theories of personality: psychodynamic, trait or five-factor model, humanistic, and social-cognitive. The psychodynamic theory primarily focuses on the role of the unconscious mind. The social cognitive theory focuses on the effect of the environment on behavior and is based on theories of learning. Whereas, the humanistic theory emphasizes conscious life experiences and choices. The trait or five-factor model focuses on characteristics themselves and not the roots of personality.
One of the many age old questions facing society today, is what makes a criminal suceptible to committing that particular crime; or why was that person targeted as a victim. This question has sparked many debates within the criminal justice field, which is the reason the Behavioral Science Unit was created by the Federal Bereau of Investigation.

The criminal mind is an extremely complex intellect and seems to be incomprehensible for everyday people, but through a psychological lens, can be unmasked almost completely. The use of psychology to understand the criminal mind has been around since as early as the 1960's but became extremely popular in the media within the last decade as it is illustrated in popular television shows and novels, such as ‘criminal minds’ and Mindhunter written by John Douglas. The thoughts that go through the mind of a serial killer spark our interest in a way that is different than most anything else because they are humans like us, yet so different from us, which simultaneously frightens and interests us. This fascination has aided in an almost complete
Klosterman proves that external factors affect his deconstruction of Saved by the Bell, his self-construction, and his behaviors through a psychoanalytic lens. Some of the external factors that affect his psychology and deconstruction of the show are personal when he mentions the TV show the X-Files, and social when he references watching the show with his college neighbor Joel. When Klosterman refers to the show The X-Files he states, -if someone asked me to describe The X-Files, …I would seem like a moron if I said, “It was a program about two people who mostly looked for aliens.” That would never qualify as a significant description. I would have to have to write about how the supernatural religiosity of The X-Files personified a philosophical

Behavior is, simply put, a function of a person and environment, B = f (P, E). If we take a person and put them in a stressful situation, such as warfare, they are going to display certain behaviors based on the myriad of dimensions to their personality. If we move that same person to a pool deck on a Sunday afternoon, they’re going to act very differently due to the change in their environment. As management, we know that success comes from being able to identify the different personality dimensions of our workers and understand how those dimensions relate to the environment that has been created at the workplace. The Study of Organizational Behavior, or OB, is that very premise. It is the gathering the knowledge of the impact that
