Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication01:30

Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication

273
Since the early 2000s, computer-mediated communication (CMC) has grown rapidly, playing a crucial role in self-development. A key distinction between CMC and real-life interactions is the lack of a physically present partner. This absence makes non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, body language, and paralinguistic signals unavailable in CMC platforms like email, instant messaging, or social media. The lack of these cues can create ambiguity and complicate how feedback is interpreted.The...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

45.2K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Drug Dependence01:17

Drug dependency primarily falls into two categories: psychological and physical dependence. Psychological dependence occurs when the pleasurable feelings induced by the drug...

Bullying

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Drug Abuse and Addiction: Pharmacological Phenomena

1.5K
Drug dependence, abuse, and addiction are complex phenomena that can precipitate various abnormal states. Physical dependence refers to a state of pharmacological adaptation to a drug. This adaptation often results in tolerance—a reduced response to the drug after repeated administrations. When the drug use is abruptly stopped, withdrawal symptoms occur due to the body's need to readjust from the pharmacologically induced imbalance. However, tolerance and withdrawal symptoms do not...

Horney's Sociocultural Approach01:27

Horney's Sociocultural Approach

1.3K
Karen Horney's psychoanalytic theories emphasize the potential for self-realization and the importance of addressing social and cultural, rather than biological, factors in personality development. She challenged traditional Freudian views, particularly Freud's concept of "penis envy," which she argued stemmed from cultural influences rather than inherent biological differences. Horney believed that any sense of inferiority in women was a result of societal conditioning, such as...

    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Public Health
    • Digital Health

    Background:

    • Internet technologies offer convenience but have led to significant health and social issues like internet addiction (IA).
    • IA is recognized as a serious problem, with diagnostic criteria for internet gaming disorder proposed in DSM-5.
    • Prevalence rates of IA among Japanese youth range from 2.8% to 9.9% based on epidemiological studies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the current understanding of internet addiction (IA) in Japan.
    • To highlight common comorbidities and effective treatment/rehabilitation strategies for IA.
    • To emphasize the growing need for IA prevention and management in Japan.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing epidemiological studies on IA prevalence in Japan.
    • Analysis of reported comorbid mental disorders associated with IA.
    • Examination of current therapeutic and rehabilitative approaches for IA.

    Main Results:

    • IA affects a notable percentage of Japanese youth (2.8%–9.9%).
    • Common comorbidities include ADHD, sleep disorders, depression, OCD, and anxiety disorders.
    • Psychotherapies, medications for comorbidities, and rehabilitation programs show effectiveness.

    Conclusions:

    • While treatments are available, some severe IA cases are challenging to manage.
    • Prevention strategies for IA are increasingly important.
    • Future efforts in Japan must focus on enhanced prevention, rehabilitation, and treatment of IA.
