Social Foundations of Self II: The Generalized Other

191
According to George Herbert Mead, as children progress beyond the game stage, they develop a more comprehensive understanding of societal rules and norms. This cognitive and social development enables them to internalize the expectations of the broader community, refining their ability to regulate behavior.Consistent participation in organized activities is crucial in helping children recognize that their actions are not isolated but contribute to a more significant, interconnected group...

Reinforcement01:23

Reinforcement

Positive and negative reinforcement are key concepts in operant conditioning, a learning process where the consequences of a behavior affect the likelihood of that behavior being repeated.
Positive reinforcement occurs when a behavior is followed by the presentation of a rewarding stimulus, increasing the frequency of that behavior. For example:

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

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

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...

Classical Conditioning01:18

Classical Conditioning

Associative learning, a core principle in behavioral psychology, involves forming connections between events and facilitating learned responses. This concept is vividly illustrated by classical conditioning, a process extensively studied by the Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov. Pavlov's pioneering research on dogs' digestive systems led to the discovery that behaviors can be learned through association, laying the groundwork for classical conditioning.
Ivan Pavlov observed that dogs...

Attitudes

32.6K
Attitude is our evaluation of a person, an idea, or an object. We have attitudes for many things ranging from products that we might pick up in the supermarket to people around the world to political policies. Typically, attitudes are favorable or unfavorable: positive or negative (Eagly & Chaiken, 1993). And, they have three components: an affective component (feelings), a behavioral component (the effect of the attitude on behavior), and a cognitive component (belief and knowledge;...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Healthcare Professional Development
  • Organizational Psychology

Background:

  • The hidden curriculum, encompassing organizational structure and culture, significantly impacts medical learners.
  • Understanding these implicit messages is crucial for effective medical training and professional growth.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and analyze the messages conveyed through the hidden curriculum within a healthcare facility.
  • To explore the lived experiences of healthcare professionals regarding the hidden curriculum's influence.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted educational sessions on the hidden curriculum for healthcare professionals over five years.
  • Collected personal experiences of the hidden curriculum from participants.
  • Performed thematic analysis, with two independent reviewers coding the qualitative data.

Main Results:

  • Participants included medical students, residents, faculty physicians, and allied health professionals.
  • Six key themes emerged: Vulnerability, Hierarchy, Privilege, Navigation & Negotiation, Positivity, and Dehumanizing.
  • A minority of experiences highlighted positive impacts on professional development.

Conclusions:

  • The hidden curriculum presents both challenges and opportunities in medical education.
  • Formally addressing the hidden curriculum is essential to leverage its impact on trainees.
  • Further research will focus on residents due to their dual role as learners and preceptors.
