Self-Discrepancy Theory02:45

Self-Discrepancy Theory

19.0K
One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.8K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Base complementarity between the three base pairs of mRNA codon and the tRNA anticodon is not a failsafe mechanism. Inaccuracies can range from a single mismatch to no correct base pairing at all. The free energy difference between the correct and nearly correct base pairs can be as small as 3 kcal/ mol. With complementarity being the only proofreading step, the estimated error frequency would be one wrong amino acid in every 100 amino acids incorporated. However, error frequencies observed in...

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

378
The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Need for Self-Esteem01:27

Need for Self-Esteem

254
The human need for self-esteem has long intrigued psychologists, leading to the development of several theories that explore its evolutionary and functional significance. Among the most influential are the sociometer, hierometer, and terror management theories. Each offers a unique perspective on why people strive for self-worth and how it shapes behavior and social interaction.Sociometer TheoryAccording to sociometer theory, self-esteem functions as an internal gauge of social acceptance. It...

    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Public Health
    • Urology

    Background:

    • The national audit of continence care, published by the Royal College of Physicians, revealed significant shortcomings in current services.
    • Stakeholders, including the Alzheimer's Society, have strongly criticized the state of continence care, using terms like 'appalling' and 'disgraceful'.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the current state of continence care services based on a national audit.
    • To identify and report on the inadequacies and deficiencies within existing continence care provision.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of findings from the national audit of continence care.
    • Review of published reports and statements from the Royal College of Physicians and other relevant organizations.

    Main Results:

    • The audit identified continence services as 'inadequate and incomplete'.
    • Widespread criticism from various organizations underscores the severity of the issues identified in the audit.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings of the national audit indicate a critical need for substantial improvements in continence care.
    • Urgent attention and dedicated efforts are required to enhance treatment and support for individuals experiencing incontinence.
