  31. Donald spent a great amount of his time in search of what he liked to call excitement. He had already climbed Mt. McKinley, shot the Colorado rapids in a kayak, driven in a demolition derby, and piloted a jet-powered boat – without knowing very much about boats. He had risked injury, and even death, a number of times. Now he was in search of new excitement. He was thinking, perhaps, he would so some skydiving or maybe cross the Atlantic in sailboat. By the way he acted one could readily guess that Donald was well aware of his ability to do many things well. Other than business engagements, Donald’s contacts with people were rather limited. He felt he didn’t really need to rely on anyone. Once Donald made up his mind to do something it was as good as done no matter how long it might take or difficult the going might be. Only rarely did he change his mind even when it might well have been better if he had.

  32. Personality Perception • Write 2-3 sentences of your general impression of Donald • On a scale of 1 – 10 rate Donald • (1 = did not like; 5 = Neutral; 10 = Like very much)

  33. Cognitive Processes and Personality

  34. Cognitive Processes and Personality • How thoughts influence our personality • Our perceptions of the world • Our perceptions of ourselves • The goals we set

  35. Cognitive Processes and Personality • How thoughts influence our personality • Perceptual processes • Self processes • Strategic and motivational processes

  36. Perceptual Processes • “For some the world is a hostile place where men are evil and dangerous; for others it is a stage for fun and frolic.”

  37. Perceptual Processes • Group Activity • Why? • Are your perceptions of the world accurate? • Why do some people perceive the world differently?

  38. Perceptual Processes • Priming • The more often one perceives something, the more likely that something is to come to mind • Environment • Parents (honesty, fearless, etc.) • Television (violence)

  39. How did you see Donald? • Imagine you always encountered issues surrounding: • “stubborn / recklessness” OR • “persistent / adventurous ”

  40. Perceptual Processes Exposure to negative words External World Priming “negative network” “network” is activated See others as negative Perceptions of World

  41. Scenarios • Pretend that you are standing on the playground playing catch with a bunch of kids. You throw the ball to another kid and the kid catches it. You turn around, and the next thing you realize is that the kid has thrown the ball and hit you in the middle of your back. The ball hit you hard and it hurts a lot.

  42. Question • Why did the child / children do this? • Do you think the child / children were trying to be mean or not trying to be mean? • What would you do next?

  43. Scenarios • Imagine that you are looking for your friend on the playground. You can’t wait to find your friend because you have an important secret to share. By the time you find your friend, your friend is already playing with someone else – a kid you don’t like very much.
