    Our group, upon reading "The Little Engine that Couldn 't" and collaboration with each other, have decided to explore the student 's lack of performance through Attribution Theory. This theory helps explain why, though given examples and a directive, the students in the room still seem unmotivated to do their work. The students beliefs that they aren 't capable either because of cultural aspects, locus of control, control of their environment, lack of stability in their abilities, or their lack of self-efficacy are causing them not to perform as well as Mr. Esky believes they can. While all four of these aspects play a huge role in the Attribution Theory, I will focus on how the lack of stability in their abilities or their lack of self-efficacy…

    Dinner With Walter Mitty From what we’ve read in James Thurber’s “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty,” Walter Mitty has an ebullient and wandering imagination. There are multiple occasions in the short story in which Mitty is distracted by a daydream that is somehow tied to what’s happening in reality, causing him to lose sight of what he’s doing at the time. Absent-mindedness can cause some trouble if one finds themselves in a daydream while driving, or perhaps in the middle of a conversation. On the other hand, daydreams can be beneficial for coming up with ways to problem-solve, and for improving mood and brain function. With this in mind, I imagine a dinner with Walter Mitty as being an interesting-or at least, amusing- experience…

    The ultimate attribution error refers to the tendency to explain the behaviors of groups in terms of internal dispositional factors, without taking the situational constraints into consideration. In Piscatella’s eyes, the notion that these women did something so wrong that they ended up in prison, can be attributed solely to the idea that they are internally bad people. Piscatella’s views also stem from concepts provided by the just-world hypothesis. The just world hypothesis states that people see the world as fair and just and that any misfortunes that happen to others occur because he or she deserves it. Piscatella is often seen using this type of thinking that stems from…

    During REM sleep, rapid eye movement occurs as we dream and the brain becomes more active causing faster brain waves and deeper sleep. Most of our sleep occurs in the NREM sleep stages where brain waves are slower. The restoration theory states that NREM sleep is needed to restore physiological functions. Growth hormones are secreted during NREM sleep which is particularly important for the growth of children along with protein synthesis and cell growth. Cells in the body are constantly renewed which makes sleep vital in allowing cell growth.…

    When you fall asleep, you enter a deep sleep cycle called REM sleep. REM means Rapid Eye Movement. When you enter this cycle, you get the deepest sleep, but it’s also when you begin to dream those vivid dreams you probably don’t remember when you wake up. Sure, if you’re untrained, you will only remember bits and pieces of them, but not enough to differentiate one dream from another during REM sleep. What if you could turn your dreams off altogether?…

In the conversation provided there is a clear violation of the fundamental attribution error which lead to the deterioration of the quality of the conversation. When we meet someone, our adaptive unconscious mind which is "always on" starts making appraisals.…
