Assignment Due on Tuesday April 6:
Over break your assignment is to read and take notes on Chapter 18 (Social Psych) objective 1-12. Be prepared for a possible vocab quiz when you return!
Also: You may also want to do some fun review for the AP exam, which is coming soon!
Here are some useful ideas:
1. Go to www.ikeepbookmarks.com/lara_herrera and go throught the folders for the different chapters, checking out my favorite links!
2. Watch the MTV True Life episodes related to disorders on MTV.com.
3. Got to the website for your textbook, www.worthpublishers.com/myers8e and try the practice quizzes and PsychSim activities
4. Get an AP Psych exam review book! Go to amazon.com, bn.com, half.com, or ebay.com and search ap psychology review. One psych teachers' favorite is 5 Steps to a 5, but Princeton Review and Barron's are also great. Get them used online for cheap! You can also buy them at Barnes and Nobles or Borders, or just sit and read them right there at the bookstore! They have great practice exams in the back- see how you score!

Instructions: Get a box (a shoebox, etc) to decorate. Use your personality handout from class for ideas. Follow the format below:
A. Decorate the inside of the box to show your personality from the Psychodynamic Perspective and the Humanistic Perspective. This is who you are on the "inside!"
1. Psychodynamic Perspective: choose three of the inside walls of the box to decorate to illustrate the psychodynamic perspective. You may do whatever you'd like to illustrate what might be in your unconscious mind on those three walls. Some possible ideas:
- illustrate your defense mechanisms
- write some Freudian slips you've made
- illustrate a scene from one of your dreams and interpret it's latent content
2. Humanistic Perspective - attach your "perceived self" description to one inside wall, and your "ideal self" description to another inside wall.
B. Decorate the outside to show your personality from the Trait Perspective and the Social-Cultural Perspective. This is who you are on the "outside!"
1. Trait Perspective: choose two of the outside walls to decorate. Include in the decor your result from the Myers-Briggs test (the four letter type you are) and some key words to describe you. Make it pretty!
2. Social-Cultural Perspective: decorate the other two outside walls to show who you are in relation to others in your family, culture, peers. You may use photos or magazine clippings!
