Analyzing Eiichiro Oda 'Animation One Piece'

Decent Essays
The topic I chose to write about is the animation One Piece by Eiichiro Oda the animation demonstrates social psychology in an interesting way. One peace is about a group of pirates led by a young man that received power from the Gum Gum fruit (a fruit the allows the person that eats it to have a rubbery and stretchy bod, but also takes away the ability to swim). The young man's name is Luffy and he is the opposite of social psychology. He does not demonstrate the bystander effect at all Luffy is the first to react in a situation whether he knows the individual or not. In the animation this inspires the viewer and is the main hook for the series. Though, because of Luffys innocent looks he gains the trust of anyone he encounters after some

    From the first activity, I thought Bradley’s words were melodramatic but as the lesson progressed I realised there was truth to his perspective. Taking inspiration from my initial thought my group decided to exaggerate the first scene starting with Aastha, Erin, Georgia and Maddi who all played the roles of futuristic robots. They conveyed their role by having their face faced downwards and only when I switched the ‘button’ on with an elongated ‘beep’ sound they began to start operating. They remain stationary with a neutral facial expression, arms parallel in front and rigid body posture, to convey they could only be operated by human commands. I portrayed my role as a chef by walking very frantically and rapidly, furrowed eyebrows and a scowled…

    Important Points Paper In this chapter the two points that I found important were symbolic interactionism and social integration. Symbolic integration is important because without it there would be no meaning to anything we do. On one side there would be no forms of learning, no titles for anything, and no way to correlate patterns or relationships. On the other side of things there would be no social status or war we would just be like our ancestors in the early days of humankind going off of instinct.…

    Breaking Social Norms In today’s world we are given a list of social norms we feel compelled to follow as a society. Social norms are the rules of behavior that are considered acceptable in a group or society (YourDictionary). Norms typically change over time due to several different factors and reasons throughout generations.

    The movie Remember the Titans is an excellent example for sociological theories. Many topics can be observed within this movie, but two of the most prominent topics that we covered this semester are social structure, more specifically race and prejudices, and group processes, focusing on status construction. This movie takes place in a small town in North Carolina that has to deal with the shifting racial makeup of their football team, therefore high school, and therefore community. There is a lot of conflict not only between the different racial groups, but also within racial groups when people have different opinions of what is acceptable. The combination of the two racial groups leads to interesting observations of racial opinions and group…

    Both human and non-human actors are part of social networks. Actor Network Theory states the non-human actors are important mediators that enable other actors. People most often disregard non-human actors because they don’t believe objects can cause actions. Latour uses different examples in order to show that non-human actors cannot be disregarded because they also have social consequences. Speed bumps change the way people react when driving; drivers will slow down in order to prevent damage to their car when going over a speed bump.…

    As the story progresses there were countless examples of sociological themes. The theory of Social Learning and Control was plainly evident in this story. Reymundo learned from the streets at an extremely young age, he had no bonds or respect for his surrounding community, the people he interacted with and learned from had no respect for anyone, therefore he quickly lost any bonds that he may have formed in school, with neighbors and within his own family. Other theory’s presented themselves as well, such as Rational Choice theory in regards to Reymundo’s decision to join a gang for protection and companionship, Intersectionality in regards to Reymundo’s power struggle to become a main man in the Latin Kings. Social Contact theory which existed in the attitudes of the people in the community that lived in the North side of Chicago.…

    483) argument, the emotional expressions of others in observational learning can easily arouse observers. The models’ attitudes, values, and emotional dispositions toward things, places or persons, which are associated with modelled emotional experiences, will be acquired by observers. As pointed out by Wardle (Early Childhood Australia, 2013a), if educators show children that taking risks is fine, children will accept the same attitude when facing risks in play. As a result, children’s courage and problem-solving abilities will be enhanced. Educators’ observed anxiety is very likely to be transmit to children during risky play Educators’ observed anxiety is very likely to be spread among children in risky play.…

    Every day there is something unique and novel that human beings can learn from unfamiliar and even familiar things that take part in their daily life. Most people approach the world with a beginner’s mind, approaching the world with preconceptions, assumptions, and opinions, because of personal experiences acquired during their lifetime. It has become human nature to think in a habitual way, in which events, thoughts, and feelings are preoccupying the individual’s mind, which in turn is deterring a person’s ability to think and see the other perspective. It is important to break this habitual ways of thinking and eventually obtain “sociological imagination” or the ability to understand the macro-scale and micro-scale factors that are interplaying…

Nativists are for the nature side, which is in contrast to empiricists who are for the nurture perspective.…

    B.F Skinner, an American psychologist best known for his influence on behaviorism, believed all human actions are results of conditioning. He favored the operant condition and believe a person behavior would change depending on consequences, rewards or punishments. If a student is misbehaving in class and the teacher discipline them, that behavior is less likely to happen again, as oppose to a student doing something good in class and being rewarded for it. The social learning theory, developed by Albert Bandura, is when an individual learns from social influences and the observation of others.…
