PLEASE READ!! MAINLY NEED SPEAKING POINTS FOR MY VIDEO; HOWEVER, I WILL NEED TO PROVIDE FEEDBACK ON 3 OTHER POSTS. ALSO, PLEASE SEE THE UPLOADED DOCUMENTS. THERE ARE 2 DOCUMENTS!
Tasks:
To prepare for this discussion, review the Attachment Styles information on the Infancy and Childhood page, and read this article from Greater Good magazine about Cultivating a More Secure Attachment Style.
Think about how connected (or disconnected) you feel to this class and the people in it. If it would be helpful, you can “rate” your connection on a scale that makes sense to you (1-10, 1-100, etc.)
Choose 3 questions to answer (and share with the class) from the options in either Set I or Set II from this list (you may want to try some questions from Set III with a close friend or partner). Make sure you choose questions you feel comfortable answering “in front of the class.” Write out your answers so that you’ve thought them through beforehand and have had an opportunity to “rehearse” your answers.
Practice answering your three questions, and then video yourself answering them. Keep your video under the 2-3 minute mark. IMPORTANT: Watch this video for detailed instructions on how to best record your video directly within the post using your computer’s webcam. Note you will need to make sure your Chrome or Firefox browser allows GoView access to record video. This method avoids long download times and protects everyone’s computer from infected files.
After posting your video, watch and listen to your classmates’ posts. Comment supportively and/or positively, but make sure you do so authentically – no responses like “great video” or “I agree.” Keep it meaningful.
After you’ve responded to at least 3 of your classmates’ posts, take a moment to notice your feelings, both generally and towards the class (including whether your “rating” did or didn’t change).
What kind of impact do you think an exercise like this would have on your close relationships, and why?
What kind of effect would this or a similar experience have if it happened on a regular basis with the same people (i.e., a family or work team), and why?
Do you think it’s possible to cultivate a more secure attachment style, versus just more secure close relationships? Why or why not?
Respond to your own post with answers to these three questions above. And don’t simply refer to your feelings or experience – use the material you’ve used in this lesson.
Remember, when citing the articles or the chapter text while answering the questions in Task #6 above, check APA Citation Help for citation examples. When referencing the text or another source, you can first use an in-text citation like “According to the OpenStax text (2020),” or “Spielman et al. (2020) describe….” Then provide the citation for your source at the bottom of your post using the following format (you can copy the citation below and insert a page number or numbers within the parentheses for the chapter text):
Spielman, R. M., Jenkins, W. J., & Lovett, M. D. (2020). Psychology 2e (pp. #-#). OpenStax. https://openstax.org/details/books/psychology-2e
