People seem to act differently when other people
are around. Is there a reason for this?
Psychologist, Robert Zajonc (1965, 1980) thinks
so. He discovered that "the presence of others
increases arousal, which can affect performance in
different ways, depending on the task at hand"
(249). This is termed the Social facilitation
theory, which relates with how the presence of
other people affect our behavior. Zajonc believes
there are three steps to the presence of
performance. First, the company of...

self-concept, but if this were true and humans
were constantly "recreating" selves to adapt to
our social settings, why do we so strongly believe
our attitudes and opinions (of ourselves) to be so

consistency is provided by our memories. We select
those memories that provided a consistent
"narrative framework" (Burr) so that when we do

Mental Health Professionals Difficult To Understand

A major part of clinical psychology is the
diagnoses and treatment of mental disorders. This
can often be difficult and controversial due to
the fact that many of the disorders can be
confused with others; there aren't always clear
guidelines in which to follow. An example of this
confusion can be seen in the disorders Neurosis
and Psychosis. Neither neurosis nor psychoses
appear as major categories in the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III).

whether I wanted to take a doctors prescription or
not. Now that I have grown up a bit and understand
things better, I am questioning the benefits of

The so-called Love Song The ironic character of
The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, an early poem
by T. S. Eliot (1888 - 1965) in the form of a
dramatic monologue, is introduced in its title.
Eliot is talking, through his speaker, about the
absence of love, and the poem, so far from being a
song, is a meditation on the failure of romance.
The opening image of evening (traditionally the
time of love making) is disquieting, rather than
consoling or seductive, and the evening becomes a
patient (Sp...
