DISCUSSION ESSAY

Step 1: In this module, you learned about the main psychological domains and also covered some of the main perspectives in psychology. Think about some of the various perspectives you learned about (including psychoanalysis, behaviorism, cognitive psychology, humanism, and the biological approach), and explain how an alien psychologist from another planet might explain the following human behaviors:

  1. Why do people cut or shave hair from their bodies (and why does it vary by sex, age, groups, etc.)?
  2. Why do children in an elementary school walk in a line when going to class?
  3. Why are people physically aggressive towards each other (and why might males might be observed doing so more than females)?

Explain each of the three behaviors with a DIFFERENT perspective. Give a well-founded explanation of how a psychologist would explain that behavior from that particular perspective.

Next, write a summary paragraph about which psychological perspective most resonates with you, and why. If you were to practice psychology someday, either as a therapist, counselor, teacher, researcher, or in some other capacity, which perspective do you think you might emphasize?
