Self Reflection Paper

This is the report to the Psychology 100 class assignment. In the assignment, I handed out surveys about my personality and asked others to rate me; then I collected and analyzed the data. The results will show that how other people see me may or may not be the same as I see myself.

Encephalitis literally means an inflammation of the brain, but it usually refers to brain inflammation caused by a virus. It may also be called “acute viral encephalitis or aseptic encephalitis';. Encephalitis is an infectious disease of the Central Nervous System characterized by pathologic changes in both the gray and white matter of the spinal cord and brain. It may be due to specific disease entity such as rabies or an arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus), or it may occur as a sequela of influenza, measles, German measles, chicken pox, herpes virus infection, small pox, vaccinia, or other diseases. The specific viruses involved may vary. Exposure can also occur through insect bites, food or drink, or skin

I was inspired by the content this week so much so that I incorporated digital storytelling into the UNIV 100 course I am teaching. One of the requirements for the course is to attend four outside events and write a one-page paper about each experience. The third paper is due within two weeks, and students have tended to dread the activity, waiting until the last minute to decide on the event and submit the paper.

My personal character can be described as driven, analytical, and honest. The driven nature that I have pushes me to finish any task no matter what challenges I come in contact with. Moreover, I motivate those around me to finish and reach their goals so that not only I succeed, they will too. The mindset that I have is analytical, which allows me to view things in very reasonable perspectives. My analytical mindset and honesty will help me succeed not only in college but in life too; when I need to make a serious decision that can’t have any emotional input into it I will be able to accomplish

One's self-concept affects one's perception, attitude and behavior, which can be demonstrated during the process of interpersonal communication. Aspects of one's life influence their self-concept, which not only affect how people perceive them but how they perceive themselves. Such things are gender, motivational level and psychological type. It is widely

People often say they like how embracing I can be. Generally, when you first meet me, I ask tons of questions and smile a lot. People also say that I’m easy to talk to because I’m generally very docile and inquisitive. I absolutely hate being judged, so I often make an effort to hear people for who they are now rather than decisions they

This paper hypothesizes that the outcome, adolescent alcohol use, is not only the product of multilevel influences, but also of risk factors accumulated over the individual’s life course, and presents a graphic conceptual framework in order to demonstrate this. Adolescence is defined herein as 10-19 years of age, in accordance with the WHO definition. Alcohol use is defined as the ingestion of alcohol. Adolescent alcohol use is a public health problem because of its consequences, which include car accidents, substance abuse and substance abuse disorders in adolescents and in later adulthood, and negative impacts on the brain and its development.

I am the opposition and I am against human experimentation.I am against human experimentation because it harms people.I say this because multiple people have been murdered by these experiments for over the past 100 years.In the experimentation people have been saved,but the experiment could have had a sin affect that affected the person. The sin affect could then go extremely wrong,and could lead that person to death.

As I completed finding the character traits, I discovered how different I act outwardly than I do in my own head. Inside, I am a nervous wreck scared that I will say the wrong thing and hurt someone’s feelings. Additionally, I am reliable whenever I tell someone I will be there for them no matter what (whether I like that person or not), I will do everything in my power to help you. Finally, I feel as if in my own head I am an old woman. I am more mature than any teenager that I have met in this school; I am bound and determined to get my work done even if it means no breaks. When my friends come to me looking for advice, I give them the most sensible solution, but they don’t want to do it because, “That’s not what I wanted you to say,” Then

Self-concept is defined as a “subjective description of who you think you are” (Beebe, Beebe, Redmond, & Salem-Wiseman, 2014, p. 28). A few positive ways in which I would describe my self-concept to be are terms such as someone who’s athletic, caring, compassionate, dedicated, disciplined, empathetic, friendly, hardworking, humorous, a perfectionist, reliable, and trusting. As much as I wish I could define my self-concept regarding positive traits only, a few negative traits that define my self-concept include being insecure, shy, fear of failure and rejection, unable to take criticism without it being considered personal, being argumentative at times, being self-deprecating and being overly competitive. I believe the perceptions I have about myself significantly impact how I communicate with others, both positively and negatively. For example, because I consider myself shy, I know I am less expressive and verbal when interacting with others, which could be an issue when it comes to expressing essential opinions and honesty. I also defined myself as being insecure, which also affects communication with others. The reason why this is a concern when communicating with others is that rather than focusing on the conversation, instead, I am concentrating continuously on wondering what the other person is thinking about me as an individual and what judgments they are making at this very moment.

I am a pretty well rounded individual although not perfect by any means. Throughout my life, I have always tried my best to be friendly to everyone and optimistic in all situations. I don’t think anyone would ever describe me as a critical or aggressive person. I’ve always been willing to give advice and be encouraging to anyone that I felt needed it. I believe that I am a fairly conscientious person in that I have always been careful and diligent when it comes to work and other life choices. I’ve always been organized and usually don’t act on pure impulse alone. I’ve never been described as traditional or conventional. I’ve always been open to new experiences and relish every opportunity that can make me a more well-rounded person. People would also describe me as a fairly intelligent individual with a vivid imagination. My weaknesses, however, would have to include my ability to develop people and team process. I’ve always been encouraging, but I can improve upon my ability to develop people by providing feedback to individuals on their performances and recognizing individual contributions when I am part of a team.

“Teamwork makes the DREAM work” is the motto that Raquel Tellez, Service Chief II for the Community Counseling and Supportive Services a Prevention and Early Invention program within Behavioral Health Services (BHS), lives out every day with her team at the clinic and with her approach to client care.

Self! “Self is an ever changing system of perspectives that are formed and sustained in communication with others and ourselves.” (p.174) As I typed in “self” in the Google search engine what stood out to me the most was a quote by Buddha that goes, “you, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserves your love and affection.” On the first day you are born you, yourself is a individual who is living life to obtain a personal identity with no clue to who or what you may transpire to be. In the Communication Mosaics the 8th edition, it emphasizes the self as being dynamic, and concludes that every individual evolves and change throughout their lifetime. Through my studies of communication I have fondly realized how significant

Out of all of the topics that we went over in over the course of the Sister to Sister class, the one that resonated with and still resonates with me the most would have to be the theme of self. This is simply because you cannot even begin to form a sense of community or delve into higher education successfully without a keen awareness of self. This phenomenon is stated beautifully with, “an ongoing commitment to developing the self is paramount to the establishment of an identity that is centered and grounded” (King, T. C., & Ferguson, S. A 2). The ongoing aspects of this are stressed because as people, we are continuously changing, meaning that we need to be constantly in tune with our self and making sure that we are going about life in

I am now approaching the conclusion of my college career and starting to adjust to work life. This is a period of self-reflection and an attempt to put everything I learned into perspective. During this period of my life, I have been constantly thinking and contemplating my future. I feel very anxious yet nervous during this time while I am adjusting to this new stage of my life. When I was in High school my life was very structured, because I could be very dependent on peoples help and I obviously still lived with my family. When I went to college, I had to break away from that feeling of dependency and start the adjusting to adulthood. In college there was more responsibility and I started to become more independent. This was a crucial step in my life but choosing a career is going to be an even bigger step. It is a bigger step because; I have to start structuring my career goals and family goal for the future. At this moment all I can think about is my career, and how I can I keep improving myself for work life.
