47. Discuss ways that social media are relevant to personal identity.

ANSWER:  

Social media provide us with direct definitions and reflected appraisals. For example, when you post a photo on Instagram or Facebook, others respond with comments that are direct definitions or reflected appraisals, which may be negative or positive. Social media are also key sources for social comparison. We read others’ updates and compare our accomplishments to theirs, our activities to theirs, our number of friends to theirs, and so on. On social networking sites, many, perhaps most, people emphasize what is positive in their lives and downplay or omit mention of what is not so positive. This suggests that we might be wise to be cautious in comparing ourselves to the way others present themselves online.

48. Family members rely on three kinds of communication that influence our sense of self. List, define, and give an example of each.

ANSWER:  

  • Direct definition is communication that explicitly tells us who we are by labeling us and our behaviors. For instance, parents might say, “You’re my little girl” or “You’re a big boy” and thus communicate to the child what sex he or she is.
  • Identity scripts are rules for how we are supposed to live and who we are supposed to be. Like the scripts for plays, identity scripts define our roles, how we are to play them, and basic elements in the plot we are supposed to have for our lives. “We give back to our community” or “We live by God’s word” are examples of scripts that might operate in a family.
  • Attachment styles are patterns of parenting that teach us who we and others are and how to relate to others. For example, a child is most likely to develop a secure attachment style when the primary caregiver interacts in a consistently attentive and loving way with the child. In response, the child develops a positive sense of self-worth (“I am lovable”) and a positive view of others (“People are loving and can be trusted”).

49. What advice would you give to a classmate who is engaging in self-sabotage?

ANSWER:  

Because how others view us affects how we see ourselves, you can create a supportive context by consciously choosing to be around people who believe in you and encourage your personal growth. Steer clear of people who put you down or say you can’t change. You should challenge negative statements you make to yourself and replace them with constructive intrapersonal communication. Real friends can help us identify areas for growth without making us feel bad about ourselves. You should create contexts that support growth and change and seek experiences and settings that foster belief in yourself and the changes you desire.
