PSY220H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Telephone Directory, Reciprocal Liking, Physical Attractiveness
Document Summary
Final exam weighted towards last lectures and chapters rest is the other lectures /40. Long for acceptance, liked by others, be in a group popular. Without simple contact cannot thrive and can die we needs others in our lives. What is considered attractive no practical understanding. No very realistic idea of romance, love and storybook and fallacy. Tend to prefer letter of our own name because it is familiar and safe, understanding of and awareness of. Things that are novel or things with less exposure to is seen as threatening the more we appreciate it. Prefer image in mirror we exposed to that more often (we like it better) other like the picture of us because that is what they are exposed. Telephone directory names rate familiar names and rate least and most liked, unfamiliar is least liked. Most attractive tends to win in politics.
