SOC 257 Social Psychology

reflect on 2 sources:

1. Please view the video below about Jean Twenge, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWuLjjUHBkw

2. Please read and reflect on the 2005 quote below by Roy Baumeister, a social psychologist who is known for his work on the self, social rejection, belongingness, self-control, self-esteem, self-defeating behaviors, motivation, aggression, consciousness, and free will.

In your discussion, please discuss both sources with your own views and be sure to answer:

1. What do you think about their perspectives? Include specific words or descriptions from the video and quote to support your opinion and demonstrate that you have viewed/read them.

2. What is your personal perspective? Explain how you arrived at your perspective based on your life experiences, our text, the video and the quote.

3. Other relevant thoughts? Be thorough and formulate a thoughtful and substantial discussion.

Roy Baumeister:
"After all these years, I'm sorry to say, my recommendation is this: forget about self-esteem and concentrate more on self-control and self-discipline. Recent work suggests this would be good for the individual and good for society."
