Observations have been made over the past week from September 11th through September 15th on subject x and their behavior. Three periods in a day subject x was examined. At the end of the week I made conclusions on subject x on who they are as a person. Many of the same behaviors were repeated over and over giving me a clear understanding of why they do what they do. Monday September 11th, 2017 marked the start of my examination period on subject x. At eight fifty in the moring subject x walked into the classroom with hands full of schoolwork. Quietly, they moved along to their desk to sit down and start working tentatively. However when nine o'clock rolled around, subject x started talking to the people in her proximity. With a broad smile, subject x completely forgot about the handsful of school work and began making jokes out loud. The next period in the day was at ten fifteen, where subject a was put into a group of three other people to work on a lab. Confused and frustrated, subject x asked their group how to answer the questions given. After multiple tries and no acceptable response was given to subject x, they became very impatient.

Yet subject x has a lighthearted side and can make best out of situations by making other people laugh with their jokes.FInally I came to the conclusion based off my observations that subject x is determined to work but can make the best out of situations and bring others up around

Now, of course I had APUSH at the end of the day. So it left me plenty of time to think about and become exhausted over the dread that was building up inside of me for just receiving back a test. I couldn’t focus in any of my classes, and didn’t think about anything other than “I can’t believe I failed.” The instant I walked into the classroom my knees almost buckled to the point where I collapsed. All I could do is sit in the corner with my hands on my head as Ms. Bradley said “Some of you did amazing on this essay!

In the fundamental attribution error, I remember back in my freshman year of high school. There’s was a new student (called Ashely) who comes to join in in our class.

In addition to the classroom environment, children with SEBD may experience problems in a more social school setting, such as in the playground and lunch hall at break time and lunchtime. These difficulties may cause them to become withdrawn as they struggle to cope with the social and more formal demands of the school day. The associated hyperactivity and inability to concentrate on the task in hand, a common characteristic of children with SEBD, may cause disruption in the classroom and their associated frustration, can lead to challenging behaviour which can be troublesome both for the teacher and others in the class. In addition, children with SEBD frequently struggle to manage their emotions and can experience episodes of unexplained crying

In a natural environment, a participant is most likely to behave in the manner they do on a normal day and thus the research is more genuine. In a lab setting, a participant may be more rigid and less likely to behave in their typical day to day manner.

Sears, Maccobly, and Levin (1957) reworked Freud’s theory within the framework of learning theory. In particular, the notion of parenting as related to qualities of warmth and control were made explicit and directly linked to sex differences (Eckes & Trautner, 2000). They stated that mothers provide warmth and emotional support whereas fathers provide discipline and control (Eckes & Trautner, 2000). As a result, children’s sex-role identification within the family was thought to take place through modeling and reinforcement (Eckes & Trautner, 2000). This approach was later modified by Mischel in 1966 and known as the Social Learning Theory (Eckes & Trautner, 2000).
