Benchmark – The Self and Interactions with the Environment

Humans interact with the environment through social cognition, social attention, and social heuristics. The self distinctly influences each of these environmental interactions. In this assignment, you will explore the relationship of the self to interactions with the environmental through social cognition, social attention, and social heuristics.

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

  • Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments.
  • This assignment requires that at least five additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least four in-text citation from each source be included.
  • You are required to submit this assignment to TurnitIn

Directions:

Write a paper
(2000 words) in which you discuss the relationship of the self to
interactions with the environment through social cognition, social attention,
and social heuristics. Include the following in your paper:

  1. A research-based discussion of how the self-influences social cognition. What role, if any, is played by self-regulation? What factors affect a favorable self-concept in relationships? Why?
  2. A research-based discussion of how nature and nurture influence cognitive development. How is social cognition influenced by nature and/or nurture
  3. A research-based discussion of how the self-influences social attention. What grabs your attention? Why? How do verbal and non-verbal expression influence your attention?
  4. A research-based discussion of how the self-influences social heuristics. How does the self-influence which shortcuts are preferred in a given situation?
  5. A discussion of individual assessment measures that could be applied in a research study to explore the relationship of the self to interactions with the environment through social cognition, social attention, and social heuristics. What properties of these measures make them reasonable for use in such a research study?
