Self-Presentation01:25

Self-Presentation

325
Self-presentation is a fundamental aspect of social interaction, shaping both how others perceive individuals and how they view themselves. This dynamic process influences behaviors in various social settings, often leading people to adjust their appearance, speech, and demeanor to align with their desired identity. While self-presentation can be deliberate or unconscious, it plays a critical role in interpersonal relationships and self-perception.Forms of Self-PresentationSelf-presentation can...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

44.8K
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...

Strategies of Self-Presentation I: Strategic Self-Presentation

229
Strategic self-presentation refers to individuals' intentional efforts to influence how others perceive them. This process is employed in various social and professional settings, such as job interviews, dating, politics, and legal contexts, where individuals seek to shape impressions to gain social or material advantages. While people generally present themselves in ways that align with their authentic characteristics, external factors, such as cognitive load, can hinder their ability to...

Strategies of Self-Presentation II: Self-Verification

204
Self-verification is a fundamental psychological drive wherein individuals seek affirmation of their self-concept from others, striving for consistency between their internal self-view and external perceptions. This drive operates even when the self-concept is negative, influencing interpersonal behavior and feedback preferences in complex and often counterintuitive ways. Unlike the self-enhancement motive, which seeks positive evaluations, self-verification prioritizes coherence and...

Sound Intensity00:58

Sound Intensity

4.9K
The loudness of a sound source is related to how energetically the source is vibrating, consequently making the molecules of the propagation medium vibrate. To measure the loudness of a source, the physical quantity of interest is the intensity. This is defined as the energy emitted per unit of time per unit of area perpendicular to the sound wave's propagation direction. Since the total energy is greater if the source vibrates for a longer duration and over a larger area, dividing the...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Lichen amyloidosis (LA) is a subtype of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis (PLCA).
  • It presents as intensely itchy, scaly, hyperkeratotic papules, predominantly on the shins.
  • LA is rare globally but more prevalent in Asian populations, affecting men more frequently.

Observation:

  • A case of LA in a 40-year-old woman is presented.
  • Characteristic histological findings include Congo red staining with apple-green birefringence, though positivity can vary.
  • Other potential diagnostic markers include eosinophilia and specific staining patterns (PAS, thioflavin T, crystal violet).

Findings:

  • Diagnosis of LA can be challenging, with variable positivity in standard histological tests.
  • Effective treatment for LA remains difficult, with complete remission being uncommon.
  • The patient in this case showed positive response to a combination therapy.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the diagnostic variability and treatment challenges associated with Lichen amyloidosis.
  • Combination therapy involving acitretin, antihistamines, topical steroids, and hydrocolloid dressings showed benefit.
  • Further research into effective and consistent treatment strategies for LA is warranted.
