Understanding the Self01:28

Understanding the Self

397
The self is a central aspect of human identity, encompassing an individual’s beliefs, emotions, perceptions, and experiences. It is a cognitive and psychological construct that enables individuals to interpret their traits and behaviors, influencing how they perceive themselves and interact with the world. While personality consists of stable and enduring characteristics, the self is shaped by self-perception and social experiences. This distinction highlights the dynamic nature of the...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

56.5K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Understanding Self-Concept

403
The self-concept encompasses individuals' beliefs about themselves, structured through cognitive frameworks known as self-schemas. These schemas function as mental representations of specific traits or behaviors, influencing how self-relevant information is perceived, processed, and remembered. For example, individuals who are schematic for body weight are more likely to interpret routine experiences—such as dining out or shopping—through the lens of that trait. Conversely, those...

Personal Identity01:25

Personal Identity

567
Personal identity is the deeply felt sense of self that individuals cultivate over time, intricately woven from intrinsic qualities they consider essential to their existence—qualities such as morality, intelligence, and friendliness. These attributes serve as vital internal benchmarks, guiding individuals in evaluating whether their actions resonate with their true selves.When personal identity takes center stage in one's life, individuals often emphasize their distinctiveness,...

Self-Awareness and Its Effects01:21

Self-Awareness and Its Effects

362
Self-awareness is a psychological state in which the individual becomes the focal point of their attention. This inward focus transforms the self into an object of contemplation and assessment, influencing how individuals perceive their actions and their alignment with personal and societal standards.Triggers and Contexts for Self-AwarenessSelf-awareness can be activated by external stimuli that make individuals visually or audibly aware of themselves, such as mirrors, cameras, or recordings.

Structure of Self

935
Sigmund Freud's model of the human psyche is often illustrated using an iceberg analogy. The iceberg's visible tip represents the conscious mind, which includes thoughts and perceptions that individuals are immediately aware of. However, the larger, submerged portion of the iceberg represents the unconscious mind, a reservoir of repressed desires, instincts, and memories. According to Freud, human behavior is primarily shaped by this hidden realm.
Components of the Mind: Id, Ego, and...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Psychology
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Auditory Verbal Hallucinations (AVHs) are complex experiences often described as interpersonal.
  • First-person phenomenological accounts of the self-voice relationship are under-researched.
  • Understanding this relationship is crucial for developing effective interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the subjective experience of the relationship between the self and Auditory Verbal Hallucinations (AVHs).
  • To identify key constructs defining the self-AVH interaction.
  • To investigate how these constructs relate to an individual's sense of control.

Main Methods:

  • A mixed-methods approach combining qualitative and quantitative analyses.
  • Twenty participants with psychosis actively experiencing AVHs were recruited.
  • Qualitative themes were quantitatively tested for emergent links.

Main Results:

  • Three core constructs emerged: understanding of origin, distinct interpersonal identities, and locus of control.
  • Participants viewed AVHs as having identities separate from their own self.
  • Active engagement with AVHs correlated with a greater sense of autonomy and control.

Conclusions:

  • Relational constructs are vital for improving clinical interventions for AVHs.
  • Detailed voice assessments, like the Maastricht Interview, are valuable.
  • The hearer-AVH relationship is dynamic and can be modified through engagement and negotiation.
