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...

Social Scripts

People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Biophotonics

Background:

  • Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging relies on fluorescence from endogenous ocular fluorophores, primarily lipofuscin and melanin.
  • These fluorophores are concentrated in the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid.
  • FAF provides insights into the spatial distribution of these substances and the health of the retinal pigment epithelium.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the fluorophores responsible for FAF imaging.
  • To discuss the utility of FAF imaging in assessing and monitoring retinal diseases noninvasively.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on fundus autofluorescence.
  • Discussion of the principles of fluorescence in ocular tissues.
  • Analysis of FAF imaging applications in various retinal pathologies.

Main Results:

  • FAF imaging is a valuable noninvasive tool for evaluating retinal health.
  • It offers insights into the status of the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid.
  • FAF can detect and monitor changes associated with several retinal diseases.

Conclusions:

  • Fundus autofluorescence imaging is crucial for understanding retinal diseases.
  • Its noninvasive nature makes it ideal for patient monitoring.
  • FAF imaging aids in the early detection and management of conditions like AMD and diabetic retinopathy.
