PSYCH 104 Lecture Notes - Lecture 28: Impression Management, Chameleon, Extraversion And Introversion
Document Summary
Impression management devices: we"re really concerned on the impression we give off to others. People are high self monitors or low self monitors. High self monitors really have two things that happen. One, they are very good at picking up cues in the environment that tell them how they should behave if they want to fit in. Two, they"re good at altering their behavior to actually fit the cues. They can pick up on whether the situation calls for introversion and they can alter their behavior to act introverted. Low self monitors aren"t very good at picking up the cues to tell them how to behave if they fit in, and two, if they do pick up the cues, they"re not good at altering their behavior. For low self monitors, it"s easy to pick up on their personality because they always act the same, they don"t alter their behavior.
