How To Write A Response To Helen Fisher's Hypothesis

Improved Essays
Journal your thoughts on Fisher’s hypothesis and experiment: How do you want to write about this in your response paper?

My thoughts about Fisher’s hypothesis and experiment are a little bit confuse to me. Who will think that love is not about feeling but that it is a human drive which makes you reproduce? Since I read Fisher’s paper, every time I think about love, I start to remember about those chemicals of the brain that Fisher mention; Norepinephrine, Dopamine, and Oxytocin. The experiment was very interesting for me, I never thought that your mind could reflect love. I always saw love more easily reflect in the heart, never with the chemical in your brain. The hypothesis was a little bit unbeliever at the beginning because I never thought about it before, but at the end it makes sense. In my response paper, I want to write about the result between her hypothesis and the experiment.

I never thought that she will do whatever was necessary to make Jason suffer, not matter if she has to suffer as well. She is a very evil woman. I didn’t like the end of the play because it was unfair. It was fine that the King and his daughter die. The king was not supposed to give Medea another day in his country because he knew she was dangerous. The worse part of the end is when she kills her children to make their father pay for what he did. I wasn 't expecting that. I think that it was unfair because the children were not responsible for anything that happened. Also, She got to move on and have new children, when she already killed the one she had. That was bad because how a woman that disappear her own blood have another

    The idea that fate predetermines a person's life events have been before birth is widely known. In Greek mythology gods and goddesses are the ones who decide the fate of humans.

    The murder, or sacrifice in Medea’s eyes, was all in favor of Medea achieving the revenge on Jason she so desperately seeks. Well aware that the sacrifice will not bring Jason and Medea back together, the idea of the grief and sadness it will bring upon Jason is enough for Medea to be convinced. Medea, who loves her sons, will feel the same grief and sadness, but her extremist ways towards achieving her desires supersede any emotional connection she…

    Memories of certain events can greatly influence our tendencies and world view later on in life. Some of these events can be positive and some can be negative. In the case of Alfred Kinsey, his mistake was he did not understand the emotional attachment our brain can create. He overlooked any link of sexual behavior and past events in someone’s life. Our brain influences us greatly: attachment, emotion, love are all tendencies created by the incredibly complex nature of the human brain.…

    Psychology Through the Eyes of a Behaviorist John B. Watson was the first person to study human emotions systematically. In fact, back in his day, it was very common to think of fear as either a result of faulty reasoning or a form of instinctual reaction (Chance, 2014, 2009). In the first paragraph of “Psychology as the Behaviorist Views it”, Watson immediately points out the universal beliefs of behaviorists. One of the first ones is that psychology, from a behaviorist’s perspective, is a “purely objective experimental branch of natural science” (Watson, 1913). However, Watson makes it clear that he feels psychology has failed to project itself as such due to the false idea that its array of facts are “conscious phenomena” (Kimble and Thompson, 1994) and that introspection is the only straightforward confirmation of these facts.…

    Medea Play Analysis

    Medea who was the main character was effective because she had an evil yet charming personality, it was very seldom to know what she was thinking or any plan she had in her mind. A great example would be when she gave her precious gifts to her sons, to give to Jason’s new wife but the items were poisoned and killed the girl and her father, the King. I think I personally enjoyed how Medeas personality was almost bi polar, she would go from pleading and begging to threatening and speaking words of hate. This made the play very interesting and kept me engaged. Jason, was a strong military man full of adventures.…

    Stripped down to its most basic structure, a classical tragedy centers on characters who bring about their own destruction by way of their tragic flaws. Classical tragedy is most commonly associated with ancient Greek plays, but the genre set forth by the Greeks stands the test of time quite well; after all, any person from any time and place can relate to the possibility of ruining his own life through foolish and flawed actions. Perhaps, then, it is no surprise that Renaissance author William Shakespeare himself followed in the footsteps of ancient Greek playwrights such as Euripides. Certainly, though many changes took place between Euripides’ time and Shakespeare’s, human nature was not among them. Just as human nature can be altruistic and noble, it can also prove greedy, lustful, and murderous.…

    I interpret every hesitation she has to kill her children as the last of her humanity trying to appeal to her human nature so that she might choose love over hate and let her children live. Medea’s stream of consciousness is like a commentary of an actual fight between love and hate. She sees the innocence of the children when she looks into their eyes and feels compassion for them. Love throws the first punch. Thinking of Jason, she cannot let her enemies go unpunished.…
