Writing Assignment Change Your World
Assignment Objectives: To get you think about the role of immediate cultural practices in our psychological lives. Assignment Content:For this assignment, you will write about your experiences in changing your own cultural or situational practices.
In the paper, you will write about what you changed and what you thought about it. What happened to your cognitions, emotions, behaviours, and motivations when you altered your typical practice? What does that mean about how cultural environments might sustain our cognitions, emotions, and behaviours? In turn, what role do your own, learned cognitions, emotions, behaviours, and motivations play in sustaining, reinforcing, or creating the cultural practice you were working with?
Utilize one empirical research article to construct a thorough and insightful analysis. Your writing should be clear and concise, and your ideas should be thoughtful and well-articulated.
