According to the Psychoanalysis school of thought founder, Sigmund Freud, we all have our egos. Which is our shown consciousnesses. It's how we act like ourselves in a socially acceptable manner. According to psychoanalysts we all have specific defense mechanisms to defend our ego not feel anxiety or threats to our ego. I think mine is Reaction Formation. Its when I act in the opposite way that I'm supposed to so I don't hurt my ego. Like when I'm supposed to be sad I am happy and vice versa. I think that's my mechanisms.
According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs in humanism, I'm on my way to Self Actualization. I've reached every step in the pyramid. I have all my physiological needs and my safety needs. I have people that care about me and love me. I also have a pretty good self esteem too.
I am a burrito. According to the Gestalt school of thought its the sum of my parts that make me who I am. Sure there are many positive qualities I have or ingredients along with negative ones, but it's the combination of all of my qualities that make me unique in my own ways. Therefore I am a Burrito. I am made up of unique and individual qualities that make me who I am.
According to Cognitive School of thought psychologist Jean Piaget's theory of how we develop learning throughout our life, I have experienced a form of learning. One such example is my guitar. I first knew nothing about it except it sounded cool, then eventually i tried one out by just strumming random notes. I then got around to learning how to play it and now I can play a lot of different songs which is how my mental processes evolved.
Behaviorism has been a part of my life for a long time. Since I was a kid I would be given money every time I got straight A's. I am the the product of Operant Conditioning. B.F. showed by associating certain behaviors withe certain consequences is how we learn. I learned that once I did good things and got rewarded I would always strive to be rewarded again
The Structuralism School of thought is all about introspection which is what looking at something means to you. So what better way to do that than with a picture of myself. I've been looking for what something means to me, personally for a long time. It's why I'm taking Psychology. Structuralism is what something means to you anyways, so I picked myself.
According to Functionalism we all have a purpose to do something. We don't just do it. For me that's music. I like how it sounds and it can calm me down. It's my reasoning and purpose for doing it.
