Humanistic psychology-studies full whole humanBasically because of covid i wasn't at school which meant i had a lot more time. I couldn't really get a job so my brain was very idle. I started working out alot because i wanted to improve myself some how which shows the humanistic perspective because i wanted to be the best me.
i will become strong and try to be the best me!
Amagydla -controls emotionBecause of covid i found myself too be much more sensitive and emotional. Its because i felt lonely due to spending so much time at home. It made me much more emotional to the point where i would get very annoyed or sad easily.
Perception-how someone interprets a situationDuring covid when we had online school so i interpreted it as a extended break. Its because i wasnt use to attending school from home. I used it to connect with some old friends and play my xbox. Of course i still made sure to do all my assignments :).
who am i. What makes me different then this other person?what makes me happy?
External locus of control-belief that external events are what determine your futureWhen covid happened there were times I believed it would never go away. It made me think the end of the world was there so there were times i didn't even wanna do anything because i felt like it won't matter since the world was ending. I got over that though and had gotten some hope when the vaccine came. I basically thought covid just took my future
nothing is in my control. The world is ending :(
Encoding -learning new content and trying to understand it .Because of covid there was online school. This made labs in physics impossible to do so when i tried to pay attention in class i only knew formulas and i couldn't understand them as much as i would if i saw a visual representation of them. I only saw textbook definitions of them which made them very hard to understand and apply to my life.
Identity-sense of selfI found myself questioning who i was because covid gave me alot more time to reflect. I thought more about how i changed in life and if i did change. I sometimes would wonder what would i do in some situations so i was questioning who i was alot.
