Define in detail the psychological concept you believe is relevant.
Order Description
DESCRIPTION OF SCENE: Describe the relevant scene (recommend that you use the description from your Outline as a starting point; you may need to add more info, like quotes from scene, if necessary).
DEFINITION OF CONCEPT: Define in detail the psychological concept you believe is relevant. Your job is to demonstrate that you understand the concept or theory, and that you can describe it in your own words initially. Then, you will use ONE library resource (e.g., book, journal, newspaper) to fully explain/define EACH concept. You may use your textbook for additional resources BUT IT CANNOT COUNT AS YOUR LIBRARY RESOURCE. I need you to show me that you have a good understanding of the concept. It is best if you are specific about the concepts you discuss. For example, dont just write that your scene illustrates classical conditioning. Instead, explain what specific aspect of classical conditioning that your scene illustrates.
ANALYSIS OF SCENE: Elaborate/explain on how the selected scene illustrates the psychological concept you have identified. You can also discuss how a scene might fail to follow predictions derived from the psychological concept or theory. Where possible, make reference to how your scene maps onto specific research findings (for example, describe how the scene is similar to or different from relevant experiments you\’ve read or heard about). It is very important that you do more than simply say something like this scene illustrates classical conditioning.\” You must be specific on precisely how and in what form the scene illustrates classical conditioning, or how it fails to support what you learned about classical conditioning in class. This is a great area to discuss the accuracy of the portrayal of the psychological concept.
Remember, you must identify THREE (3) DIFFERENT PSYCHOLOGICAL CONCEPTS that are relevant to your film.
