Psychology Assignment 2

In total 6-8 pages,double spaced, and Answer
5 questions

1.
Identity Mapping

Write your name in the centre of a page in large bold letters (you can do this by hand or on a computer). Consider all the roles you may identify within the different facets of your life, the adjectives that best describe you, and/or other salient aspects of your life that define your identity (e.g., vegetarian, grandfather, was a pastor). Connect them in whatever way makes sense for you. There is no right or wrong way to do this. You can use drawings, colours, symbols, words…whatever you need to reflect your multiple selves.

Reflect on some of the following topics: Which identities are present? Which identities are ascribed to you by others and which are chosen? How do these multiple identities fit together? Are there any that conflict or don’t go together?

2.
Identity Formation, Change, & Stability

Have any identities changed for you over your life? Which identities have you explored the most? Has change in your identity over time been shaped by major events and challenges, or by “small stories”? Do you resonate with the idea of identity formation being a long-term dynamic process?

You do not need to answer concretely each of these prompts. But reflect on these themes and discuss the ones that resonate most with your self-understanding and that incorporate course material.

3. Integrate and write about the similarities and discrepancies between your experiences and theirs. Also write about the similarities and differences between your predictions and their responses. Did any of their responses surprise you? Provide whatever context you need based on your pre-interview reflections and the interview itself in order to make your post-interview reflections comprehendible. You can organize this in whatever way makes sense to you. Multiple avenues of expression are allowed. Just be sure to
tie your reflections to course material. Please do not share personal details about another person that they would not want shared.

4. Reflect on discrepancies between your predictions and their responses. Did any of their responses surprise you? Have your beliefs or feelings about members who share that identity changed? Why or why not? Provide whatever context you need based on your pre-interview reflections and the interview itself in order to make your post-interview reflections comprehendible. You can organize this in whatever way makes sense to you. And multiple avenues of expression are allowed. Just be sure to
tie your reflections to course material. Please do not share personal details about another person that they would not want shared.
