Document Summary
Written explanation of how to study for this course will be listed on black board. If you have an organized system in your brain through top-down processes(refer to last lecture on top-down processes) it guides us to narrow our attention and think in ways we wouldn"t want to otherwise: sub-routine: we stop thinking halfway. Biases can create all forms of problems but they can even create their own form of reality: thinking can create its own reality. Ie) you believe everyone is a lying cheater trying to take advantage of you, as nasty, selfish, lying manipulative cheaters this is how you approach the world social reality is seen as a way of scoring points. Vs. if you saw reality with a positive approach. This will change how you see others: your expectations change your own representation of meeting this individual. You"re going to be anxious/cold/protective meeting someone with the negative mindset.
