METAL GEAR SOLID: THE BEAST IS BACK. WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON? In a torrential downpour, former FOXHOUND agent Solid Snake stands on the George Washington Bridge–ready to launch himself onto the deck of the U.S.S. Discovery as it passes below. Inside Discovery is a new generation of Metal Gear. But in the next hour, Snake’s world explodes. Two years later, a young, unproven agent code-named Raiden must penetrate the mystery of what went so insanely wrong that night. In a labyrinthine superstructure in New York Harbor known as the Big Shell, enemies, allies, secret agents, and double-dealers converge: Russian commandos, a cyber Vamp, a long-legged, leather-clad, rifle-bearing beauty named Fortune, a deformed, finely manicured bomber called Fatman, and a mysterious Mister X. Somewhere in the maze, as well, is the president himself–his biometrics coded to a bomb that can take out Manhattan, his loyalties unknown. Now the rookie Raiden is fighting his way to one discovery after another, including the rebirth of Solid Snake himself and a nightmare organization with a history, a plan, and a terrifying superweapon hidden in plain sight.

As we marvel at the impact that science and technology have had in our world, it is too easy to forget about the remarkable progress of the social sciences.The field of psychology has been a fantastic asset to humankind since it began. From that time forward, we’ve grown to bolster our understanding of the human mind and its workings. We now know the importance of maintaining good mental health and how it affects our society overall. Most importantly, we realize that there’s much more to learn.

The Not-So-Measurable Science

Socioemotional Selectivity Theory focuses on the positive benefits of ageing. The theory is based on the notion that humans modify their goals as they get older because of their unique ability to understand and perceive time.When people are younger, they view time as an open-ended entity. They prioritize goals based on the future, such as travelling or getting a graduate degree.However, when we grow older, we begin to see time as a limitation. Our goals tend to become much more focused on emotional gratification and the present day. Thus, older people seek out more meaningful experiences.

Socioemotional Selectivity Theory 

The Elaboration Likelihood Model is a theory that seeks to explain why people are persuaded to change their views about certain topics.The primary concept of this theory lies in understanding the function of elaboration. Whenever elaboration reaches a higher level, people are more apt to think things over carefully than with lower levels of elaboration, where they might decide quicker with less thought.It states that minds can be changed through greater elaboration, but the real challenge is if they are motivated to listen.

Elaboration Likelihood Model

His hypothesis simply stated that when people were exposed to something regularly, they would eventually come to like that thing. Zajonc emphasized that people didn’t even need a positive outcome or reward about an object — only its mere exposure was enough.

Mere Exposure Effect

During the 1920s, a Russian psychologist named Bluma Zeigarnik noticed something while sitting in a Vietnamese diner. She observed that waiters could easily remember those orders for customers who had not received and paid for their food. Yet, after the food was served and the check was paid, the waiters couldn’t seem to remember anything about the orders.This resulted in a series of studies that proved that we remember stuff more if it is unfinished.

Zeigarnik Effect

The Recency Effect was discussed in a 1962 paper by a psychologist named Bennet Murdock. Murdock discovered that the probability of a remembered word was dependent upon where it was positioned in the list. He learned that the list’s first few words were remembered pretty well, which is called the Primacy Effect.After this, the likelihood of remembering the word dropped drastically — yet it increased again for the last eight words on the list. In the end, the last few words on the list had the highest likelihood of being remembered — giving birth to the Recency Effect.

Recency Effect

Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky believed that standardized tests were inadequate in assessing a child’s learning readiness. While a certain amount of knowledge is naturally gained from exposure and maturity, other knowledge depends on the social interaction with a teacher or mentor.Vygotsky contended that these zones provide students with the best chance of mastering new knowledge. Thus, a student’s learning process should always take place within these proximal development zones.

Proximal Development Zones

6 Fascinating Theories from the Field of Psychology

Being introverted can keep you from new experiences and meeting new people. Studies show that we feel happier when we act more extraverted than usual because doing so increases our engagement with the world and our connectedness to others, which are basic human needs. For example, you go to a party you didn’t want to go to, but you meet a person who becomes your best friend or your new boss or your networking partner.

Extraversion increases engagement with the world

A strong extravert is not only chatty and sociable but also optimistic, assertive, energetic and receptive to positive emotions. Consequently, extraverts tend to be happier in life and more confident, which can benefit their careers and health. A strong introvert is quiet and reserved and experiences less high-energy positive emotion in life. They avoid too much stimulation and are more averse to risk. While there are advantages to being more introverted, you may feel frustrated by your introverted leaning and desire to come out of your shell to the extent that works for you.

Extraversion-introversion tendencies

Many of our behaviour is a profoundly ingrained part of who we are. But others are learned over the years from the many experiences in life. Rather than waiting passively for life to change you, you can change your habitual ways of being. With persistence and motivation, you can take intentional control over the forces that shape your personality toward becoming more extraverted.

Mindset for change

Some ways to help you focus your intentions: <ul><li>Talk to close friends and/or family members about your goal of becoming more extraverted. Ask for their advice.</li><li>Observe your own behaviours. In which situations could you be more extraverted than you currently are? </li><li>Write down your pros and cons of being an extraverted person.</li><li>Identify people in your environment who are more extraverted than you are. Then consider what they do differently.</li></ul>

Warming up for change

Strong extraverts can happily strike up a conversation with strangers and consequently become practised at small talk and establishing new relationships. Consider if-then plans, such as ‘If I am buying groceries, then I will say hello to the check-out assistant.’‘If it’s a Tuesday, then I will ask one of my colleagues to join me for a coffee.’ Write them down somewhere you’ll notice them. To learn how to strike up a conversation with strangers, come up with several hooks or memorable talking points related to your current interests so that you can answer "What do you do?"

If-then plans

Extraverts are bolder than average because they believe events will turn out well. Techniques that can help you to boost your optimism are:The best possible self intervention: For 5 - 15 minutes, picture yourself in the future in a scenario where everything in life has gone as well as you wanted. Do this daily for about two weeks to gain maximum benefit.Practise cognitive reappraisal. Try to reinterpret the feelings of anxiety or nerves as excitement.Build strength through physical fitness to increase your confidence.

Boost your optimism

Use situations and relationships around you to shape your levels of extraversion. <ul><li>Consider how certain people and circumstances tend to bring out different sides of your character. Being strategic about the situations you put yourself in and the people you are with will help you make it easier to become more outgoing.</li><li>Instead of relying on your usual routines, consider ahead of time what you will do the coming weekend and who you will do it with. Aim to spend time with people who make you feel relaxed and confident.</li><li>Sign up for a club or group activity, such as a hobby, sport or game.</li></ul>

‘Outside in’ strategies

You are far more likely to succeed if your desire for change serve a more meaningful value or goal. Research confirms that changing goals and priorities often precede personality trait change and not the other way around. Therefore it's worth reflecting on why you wish to come out of your shell. If you think that enhancing your extraversion will serve your overriding purpose or goals, you will be more motivated to change.

Consider your overarching values and goals

You don’t have to be outgoing. But if being introverted is holding you back from the life you want, dive in for a way out

How to come out of your shell | Psyche Guides

As a quick stroll on social media reveals, most people love showing that they are good. Whether by expressing compassion for disaster victims, sharing a post to support a social movement, or denouncing a celebrity’s racist comment, many people are eager to broadcast their high moral standing.

Social Media Helpfulness

Critics sometimes dismiss these acts as mere “virtue signaling”. As the British journalist James Bartholomew (who popularised the term in a magazine article in 2015) remarks, virtue signallers enjoy the privilege of feeling better about themselves by doing very little.

Virtue Signaling

Unlike the kind of helping where you have to do something – help an old lady cross the street, volunteer to give meals to the dispossessed, go door-to-door to fundraise for a cause – virtue signalling often consists of completely costless actions, such as changing your profile picture or saying you don’t like a politician’s stance on immigration. Bartholomew complains that “saying the right things violently on Twitter is much easier than real kindness”.

Help Don’t Cost A Thing

In everyday discourse, the people who accuse others of virtue signaling are often not interested in doing real moral analysis – mostly, they want to discredit their political opponents (“My allies are heroically rallying for a just cause, people on the other side are virtue signaling”). It might be more illuminating to look at what science says on the subject.

Virtue Signaling As A Slur 

Over the past few decades, scientists in a variety of fields have developed sophisticated analyses of signaling as a general phenomenon – how humans (and other animals) send signals designed to convey information to other individuals. The insights of signaling theory have had a huge impact on biology and the social sciences. They also tell us that virtue signaling is more nuanced and more interesting than the picture painted by conventional wisdom and political rhetoric. As it turns out, there are bad and good things about virtue signalling – but probably not for the reasons we think.

Virtue Signaling As Animal Behavior 

Why do we scold virtue signalers for having it easy? The urge to dismiss someone’s actions because they took no effort is powerful. But does it not make more sense to focus on what that action actually achieves? Why do we often focus on the costs people pay rather than how effective they are at making the world better?Why do we have the strong emotions we have about virtue signaling, and is it actually good or bad?

Why Do We Feel So Strong About Virtue Signaling?

A few decades ago, biologists and economists struggled with similar questions.Why are peahens so attracted by the peacocks with the most extravagant tails – which are very costly to maintain but otherwise seemingly useless?Why do employers care that you put yourself hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt to get an Ivy League degree in sociology with no obvious relevance to the job?

Obvious Cost With No Obvious Benefit

In the 1970s, the zoologist Amotz Zahavi and the economist Michael Spence offered a provocative answer. They argued that the cost paid by the peacock (or the college graduate) is the whole point. Their argument is a bit subtle, so it is worth carefully looking at how it works. Communication is difficult because individuals have incentives to lie. Employers are looking for certain qualities (intelligence, conscientiousness, ambition) in their employees. They could ask the people they interview if they are intelligent and conscientious, but why wouldn’t the job candidates simply lie?

Biology, Economics And Lies

Instead, employers select their employees on the basis of signals that are difficult to fake, such as university degrees. In general, having the qualities that employers value makes it easier to get a degree. People who do not have the right mix of intelligence, conscientiousness and ambition will find college more difficult, and either drop out or spend much more time completing their studies. People who anticipate that getting a degree would be too costly for them will opt out.

Talk Is Cheap; Signals Speak Volumes

So, in principle, even if nothing you had learnt was relevant to the job you want, completing the degree still sends a valuable signal to potential employers: you are the kind of person for whom this high-effort achievement is easy enough. Because it sends a valuable signal, it is in your interest to get a degree, and in the employer’s interest to hire you on its basis.

If Only For The Signal

A similar argument applies in the biological domain, but with natural selection in the driver’s seat. Growing an extravagant tail is moderately costly for a healthy peacock – but a diseased bird would put its life at risk if he spent that much energy growing the ornament. Therefore, only the peacocks in good enough condition can afford to grow an elaborate tail. As such, natural selection favours peahens who prefer peacocks with a long tail, because these peahens mate with healthy males, and get healthy offspring as a result.

Signaling Is Evidence And Testimony

Costly signals – signals that are honest because of the fact that they are costly – are ubiquitous. Why do people give flowers to their romantic interests, or take them to overpriced restaurants? Probably because these acts are costly: were the suitor not interested in a long-term relationship, he would have little incentive to invest such effort. His gifts function not because roses are particularly useful items, but because they are a costly signal of his commitment.

Costly Signals And Honesty

Here is why this matters for virtue signalling. Dishonesty is a major problem in the moral domain. People want to appear good, because it wins them friends and social status. Our moral sense evolved because people who convince others of their moral qualities reap such social benefits. But what prevents someone from pretending to be a good person, reaping all the social benefits, and not following through?

Are You Reaping Or Ripping Off? 

Throughout human evolution, being able to discriminate true allies (who stick with you no matter what) from fair-weather friends (who abandon you when you fall ill) could make the difference between life and death. As such, humans are obsessed with moral hypocrisy. We carefully scrutinise potential romantic partners, friends or team members for signs that they’re not only in it for the money. And since – per the logic of costly signalling – the costs that people are willing to pay are a reliable signal of their commitment, we pay extra attention to these costs when we evaluate other people.

Signals And Full, To-The-End Commitment

Social psychologists have found that, when we see someone perform an altruistic act, we’re suspicious that they’re really being altruistic if they derive some benefit from the act. Clever cognitive psychology experiments even show that we categorise other people on the basis of the costs they are willing to pay to benefit their group – but not on the basis of the amount of benefits they actually provide.

Costs Are Good. Even If They Are Useless. 

This is probably why we find virtue signalers irritating. They are doing things that might gain them social status – the approval of society, a place on the right side of history. But are they actually committed to the causes they support? Or are they just interested in the social benefits? When they are not paying any meaningful costs, virtue signallers activate the alarm bells that millions of years of evolution put in our heads to protect us from fair-weather friends and other moral hypocrites.

But Costs Must Be Really Costly To Be Good

So let’s concede that some virtue signalling is fake; but does that mean it is bad? Here it is useful to take a step back from our default mode of thinking. Evolution designed our brain to make us good at small-scale interaction, but we not very good (or especially concerned) at evaluating the large-scale social effects of things. As such, it is easy for a polemist to throw discredit on someone who virtue-signals by pointing out that there is no guarantee that the virtue-signaler actually shares your moral values. But is this the right yardstick by which to evaluate these signals?

What If The Costs Are Meaningless But The Benefits Meaningful?

Life is rife with coordination problems. Consider passing someone on the street going the other way. You both have a shared incentive to coordinate about which side of the street to walk on, so that you don’t bump into each other. Even though the other person is a complete stranger, there is no particular reason she would try to deceive you. In such circumstances, people send signals (eg. move suddenly and flamboyantly toward one side) to successfully coordinate. Mathematical models show that these costless signals can be crucial in helping people solve otherwise thorny coordination problems.

Costless Signals: Greenlighting

Coordination is crucial in the moral domain too. Imagine you live in a society that practises slavery, and you think you are the only one morally revulsed by it. Should you speak out about your concerns? If you think that everyone else is indifferent, you might be afraid that others will think you are weird, that the people benefiting from the system will punish you, and that you stand no chance to make a difference anyway.

Costless Signals: Spotlighting

The paradox is that, even if many people are in this situation – everyone is concerned but convinced that no one else is – they might fail to act, despite having the majority opinion. But speaking up can start a chain reaction. The more individuals raise their voice to denounce what they see as a moral problem, the more the initially silent people realise they are not alone and speak up in turn.

Costless Signals: Floodlighting

Loud and public signals are especially effective as establishing common knowledge of a moral norm ­making sure that everyone knows about the moral norm, that everyone else knows that everyone knows about the moral norm, that everyone knows that everyone knows that everyone knows (and so on). Psychology experiments have demonstrated that common knowledge is a powerful determinant of social behaviour: people are much more likely to coordinate on a joint action when everyone knows that everyone knows that working together will generate good outcomes.

Public Signals, Common Knowledge And Coordination

In addition to fostering coordination, common knowledge prevents people from hiding behind the veil of plausible deniability. To get away with selfish behaviour, we often pretend to ignore its consequences. If you can plausibly say that you didn’t know about the poor working conditions of people in sweatshops, people will judge you less harshly for buying cheap clothes. But if many people virtue signal by campaigning for better workers’ rights, the issue rises to common awareness – and, when everyone can expect everyone to know, it is harder for you to claim ignorance as a defence.

Public Signals, Common Knowledge And Plausible Deniability

Viewing morality as a coordination game suggests that public opinion can undergo rapid shifts, as society coordinates on new moral norms. And this is indeed what we observe: public opinion on a variety of subjects – such as racism and gay rights – has shifted dramatically in a progressive direction over the past few decades (sometimes within a few weeks).

Morality As A Coordination Game

In sum, virtue signalling can be a powerful force for social change, by creating common knowledge around a moral issue that people would otherwise ignore (out of complacency or selfishness).Importantly, this works even when there is no guarantee the people who are sending the signals are particularly virtuous or committed to the cause.

Virtue Signaling Re-Coordinates Society

Mark and Bob both made a $1,000 donation to a charity. Before making his donation, Mark read extensively about different charities, seeking the one with the best ROI – the charity that runs programmes with the most impact on people’s lives per dollar invested. In the process of his search, Mark would often read about an organisation that does great things, but then drop it from consideration because there was no evidence that it would use his money in the best possible way. He finally settled on a charity that provides a treatment against parasitic worms that plague many people in Africa.

The Tale Of Mark And Bob - Mark

Bob was watching TV one evening when he saw an ad for a charity that gives teddy bears to convalescent children in hospitals. Bob was overwhelmed by emotion at the plight of the children, and immediately made a transfer to the charity.

The Tale Of Mark And Bob - Bob

Mark’s donation will make a much greater impact on people’s lives. But he comes off as cold and calculating, and we can’t repress a nagging doubt about the kind of person he is. Would he still have donated if he had found that none of the organisations he read about was effective enough? Bob by contrast leaves no doubt about his good nature: he spontaneously gave his money without the slightest care about crude materialistic concerns such as economic efficiency.

The Calculating And The Spontaneous

The tale of Mark and Bob illustrates one of the bleak insights of signalling theory: the concrete impact of an altruistic act (how much it actually helps other people) is often dissociated from the signal it sends about what kind of person we are. This means that, to convince people that you are good, the most persuasive signal you can send is often not what will actually produce the most good.

Mixed Signals And Concrete Impact

Why might people be motivated to send extreme signals of their commitment to a cause? The answer lies in the fact that, when we send virtue signals, many of the things we seek – such as friends and social status – are rival goods. The people you want to be friends with can have only so many friends, so you want to convince them that they should pick you. The social groups you belong to can have only so many leaders and, in order to gain influence, it helps to show that you are more committed to the group’s ideology than is the average member.

Extreme Signals And Rival Goods

When individuals send signals to try to convince others that they are better than average, the result is often what signalling theorists call a ‘runaway’: an arms race toward more and more extreme signals. If peahens want to mate with the peacocks whose tails are more extravagant than the average peacock, natural selection favours peacocks with increasingly more extravagant tails over successive generations. If everyone has a high-school diploma, students need to start getting bachelor’s degrees in order to become distinctive in the eyes of employers.

The “Better Than Average” Arms Race 

In the moral domain, runaway signaling happens when people try to elevate their moral status by doing and believing things that not everyone else does. For example, everyone is opposed to killing humans: saying that you think people should not kill each other does not set you apart from others. But not everyone is opposed to eating animals, so being vegetarian or vegan can effectively increase your moral standing.

The “Not Your Average” Arms Race 

When we see someone virtue signalling, we often have strong reactions – sometimes admiration, sometimes annoyance or contempt. But these intuitions are the product of psychological mechanisms that are designed to help us evaluate if that person could be a good friend or a good ally, not to help us evaluate whether the person’s action will have a positive impact on the world. The emerging science of signaling shows that these things can often come apart. Keeping this insight in mind is essential as we navigate an increasingly noisy world.

The Overjustification Effect and why it can hurt your designs

Unconditional Positive Regard (UPR) is fully accepting and loving someone, regardless of their actions. It means seeing them as a fundamentally valuable and lovable human being. While this does not mean approving of all their actions, it goes beyond surface behavior. (Rogers, 1951)Key Concepts:<ol><li>Complete acceptance and love</li><li>Inherent humanity and lovability</li><li>Not approving of all actions</li><li>Seeing beyond surface behavior</li></ol>💛💕

Defintion Of Unconditional Positive Regard

“One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.”

“The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.”

We all have two instinctual urges and desires that make UPR an effective tool:
<ul>
<li>The drive towards socially constructive behavior, meaning interacting effectively and positively with others.</li> 
<li>The need for self-determination, or the right and responsibility to choose one's own path.</li>
</ul>

The Psychology Behind Unconditional Positive Regard

“People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying, ‘Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.’ I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.”

“When the other person is hurting, confused, troubled, anxious, alienated, terrified; or when he or she is doubtful of self-worth, uncertain as to identity, then understanding is called for. The gentle and sensitive companionship of an empathic stance… provides illumination and healing. In such situations deep understanding is, I believe, the most precious gift one can give to another.”

“When a person realizes he has been deeply heard, his eyes moisten. I think in some real sense he is weeping for joy. It is as though he were saying, ‘Thank God, somebody heard me. Someone knows what it’s like to be me."

In counselling, displaying unconditional acceptance means focusing on the client's feelings and motivations instead of judging their actions as right or wrong. This approach allows for the client to openly express themselves without fear of judgement or rejection.For example, if a client shares thoughts or behaviors that may be considered unacceptable, the therapist can display unconditional positive regard by asking about their underlying emotions and motivations, rather than focusing on the moral or legal consequences of their actions.

Unconditional Positive Regard In Counselling

Therapists must display UPR when a client shares self-destructive habits, such as substance abuse or self-harm. Instead of blaming or ignoring the harm, therapists should guide clients to recognize the behavior's negative impact and assure them of their worthiness for love and a healthy life. 
<ul>
 <li> Display UPR when a client shares self-destructive habits </li>
 <li> Avoid blaming and guide clients to recognize the behavior's negative impact </li>
 <li> Assure clients they are worthy and deserving of a healthy life </li>
</ul>

Understanding Harmful Behavior

“I don’t want you to save me. I want you to stand by my side as I save myself.”

Instead of always focusing on yourself, try repeating these sayings to shift your mindset: - 🙏 My child's worth is unchangeable and does not require them to earn it. - 🤲 While I may not agree with all my child's choices, I still accept and support them. - 🌱 I give my child permission to make mistakes, knowing they have the ability to learn and grow. - 💪 I have faith in my child's potential to become who they are meant to be. - 🤗 My role is to guide and support, not to criticize.

Cultivate Your Own Attitude

“You don’t need someone to complete you. You only need someone to accept you completely.”

As young people grow up, it is important to support their self-esteem and self-worth. Here are some tips for teachers and parents to implement Unconditional Positive Regard (UPR) and foster healthy development in children:
<ul>
<li>Give honest praise and recognition for their successes and achievements.</li>
<li>Be specific with your praise to reinforce good decisions and actions.</li>
<li>Show respect by offering them choices, respecting their decisions, and explaining your own decisions.</li>
<li>Encourage independence and provide diverse opportunities for them to showcase their skills and succeed.</li>
</ul>

Unconditional Positive Regard For Teachers

“I’m not perfect… but I’m enough.”﻿

“In my early professional years I was asking the question: How can I treat, cure, or change this person? Now I would rephrase the question in this way: How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his own personal growth?”

We know that it is not perfection we should seek.. spread acceptance, understanding and love 🙌
