The Color Test (Datu, 2007)

Unwilling to extend himself or exert undue effort (with the possible exception of sexual activity). Feels that further progress requires more from him than he is willing or able to give. Would prefer reasonable comfort and security rather than the rewards of greater ambition.

Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which he imposes of himself or by his own choice and decision.

Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense.

The situation is preventing him from establishing himself, but he feels he must make the best of things as they are.

Hopes that ties of affection and good-fellowship will bring release and contentment. His own need for approval makes him ready to be of help to others and in exchange he wants warmth and understanding. Open to new ideas and possibilities which he hopes will prove fruitful and interesting.

Feels restricted and prevented from progressing; seeking a solution which will remove these limitations.

a vida

afraid to go on... need to move forward... it takes a lot of courage to wake up each day to face what's there to face... and some days are harder than others...

Proposal Defense

IVa: Emotional State (2 levels, Anxious and Relaxed)

l“subjective reactions to experience that are associated with physiological and behavioral changes” (Papalia, Olds, and Feldman, 2007)

IVb: Attention (2 levels, Selective and Divided)

lSelective attention – “involves focusing on a specific aspect of experience while ignoring others” (Santrock, 2005)

lDivided attention - involves one’s “[attending] to several things simultaneously” (Santrock, 2005)

DV: Memory

l“the ability to reproduce knowledge from memory” (Papalia, Olds, and Feldman, 2007)

Hypothesis 1: That Emotional State has an effect on Memory

Hypothesis 2: That Attention has an effect on Memory

Hypothesis 3: That Emotional State and Attention has an effect on Memory.

THAT WAS F*CKIN' SCARY MAN!!!

THE HEAD OF THE PSYCH DEPT. WAS OUR PANELIST!

To the Relative and the Friend (Those I Considered Heroes)

To the relative:

You were the hero since my birth. You could do no wrong. You were everyone's savior. You were everyone's sister. You had to go. I said you were off to save the world. I knew you would save the world.

To the friend:

You were the hero since we met. You were strong. You were everyone's defender. You were everyone's friend. You had too fall. You would notb give up the fight. I knew you'd win the fight.

To them all:

You could not save the world.

You could not win the fight.

We prayed for you...

Maybe psychology is more powerful than God.
