Objective :  While we study many theories and ideas, the real test of understanding is being able to see the real life or concrete examples of these ideas. This assignment is to notice some of these theories and ideas in action either in your own life, a news story, book or movie and describe how they relate to what we are talking about in class. Share a paragraph summary of the example and then explain how it relates to our course material. End with a question to promote discussion of your example.

For example, in PSY 140, we discuss the biopsychosocial approach, the idea that behavior is most clearly understood if you look at the biological, psychological and social causes behind the behavior. We apply this idea to the story of Andrea Yates, a young mother who drowned her 5 children in the bathtub. We then label all the possible causes of her actions by using the biopsychosocial approach.
