  • Title: Exploring Causal Attributions: Observing Others and Reflecting on Our Own Behavior

    As you recall, behavior can be influenced by both the person and the situation. For this assignment, we are focused on causal attributions- the process of trying to determine the cause of people’s behavior. Making a causal attribution can be a bit like conducting a social psychology experiment- we observe a person(s) we are interested in, record their behavior, draw conclusions, and note any limitations. As a “social psychologist in training” it is your job to determine which of these two causes (dispositional or situational) more strongly determined the behavior. You will need to complete BOTH parts below. 
    PART 1 (DATA COLLECTION):
    You will need to identify a total of FIVE different targets (people) to observe- it would be best if you could try and balance it between people that you know well (i.e., friend, family member, co-worker, etc.) and those that you do not (i.e., stranger, acquaintance, etc.). You do not need to announce that you are observing them, and your observation does not need to be long- it can just be a quick snapshot of their behavior in a particular situation/circumstance. For each target person (five total), you will need to identify the following:
    Who did you observe (i.e., roommate, cashier, coworker, sales associate, mother, etc.- you don’t need to include their specific name)? If it was a someone you didn’t already know, also mention what you noticed first about them (i.e., physical feature(s), social category membership(s), and trait(s)).
    What was the setting/situation?
    What was the target person’s behavior that you observed?
    What was your initial attribution? Would you label this as dispositional or situational?
    What are the limitations in your observation/are there any alternative attributions that you could have made?
    Now, I want you to do the same with yourself for two recent situations (i.e., I arrived late to work, I yelled at my kid, I complimented a friend on their sunglasses, etc.) For each situation, answer the same four items above that you completed when observing others.
    *If it is easier for you to record this all in a table, you can do so     
    PART 2 (ANALYSIS OF DATA COLLECTED):
    I want you to think about the data that you collected and write a reflection (at least 250 words) that connects to some of the content you read this week in your textbook about perceiving others (chapter 5). For instance, you might consider answering some of the following questions:
    Were there differences in the types of attributions you made for yourself vs. others? How about others that you know vs. strangers? Why?
    When is it easier to make a personal attribution? Situational attribution?
    Explain what biases occurred (or could occur) when you make attributions (i.e., fundamental attribution error, actor-observer bias, trait ascription bias, self-serving bias). Why did they occur?
    Did the covariation principle explain the type of attribution that you made about any of your targets? Describe the type of information that you used (i.e., consistency, distinctiveness, consensus).
    Was there any specific nonverbal behavior(s) that you relied on more heavily when making a particular attribution?
    If you were to have engaged in the same behaviors as your targets, would any of your attributions be different? Explain.

  • Title: The Role of Tools in the Acquisition of Knowledge: Exploring Theories of Knowledge through Three Objects

    PROMPT: How Are Tools Important in the Acquisition of Knowledge? 
    Refer to the IB TOK EXHIBITION rubric/guide. 
    Needed changes/teacher comments:  
    the exhibition should focus on theories of knowledge, and not only fields of knowledge. The word “tool” has been interpreted very loosely here, and the exploration of an argument very one-sided.
    OBJECT 1: 
    this moves on to a very technical explanation, but not yet an understanding of epistemology; “HOW do we know what we know?” – Beginning, 3rd sentence, ‘This amp shows epistemology
    This is fine, but not really a strong argument due to the nature of the object, as this kind of musical knowledge may seem limited – Second to last sentence, reference to ‘musical knowledge’  
    There is quite a bit about different fields of knowledge, but not really various THEORIES of knowledge. – Last Sentence  
    OBJECT 2: 
    This may or may not be considered a tool due to the nature of its publication and authenticity. This could be a very controversial choice and quite risky.
    I recommend selecting another academic paper as a “tool”
    This needs evidence and can be highly debated – ‘that transforms our financial systems’ 
    This needs to be more clear in terms of explanation and evidence -‘financial systems/cryptocurrencies and blockchains.’ 
    this is a little wordy, it could be better to use evidence rather than rhetoric as this is not an argument paper, inasmuch as an exploration of the acquisition of knowledge– how does this lead to gaining, learning, a specific type of financial knowledge? – 
    ecosystem within imaginations, how a simplerandom document in the Internet 
    what kind of knowledge is this and how can evidence be used to substantiate this idea?  – 
    of its ideas, highlightingthe critical role of tools in expanding human knowledge 
    are these long lasting and stable? – 
    practical innovations that reshape entire field 
    OBJECT 3:
    This example is used on this website: please find another. https://www.themantic-education.com/ibtok/2021/03/10/tok-exhibition-sample-3/ –
    The Large Hadron Collider by CER
    be more specific, and include what kind of knowledge – The LHC demonstrates the importance of scientific tools in theacquisition of knowledge.

  • Title: “The Importance and Benefits of Trademarking Your Business Name”

    Now that your unique name has cleared the state’s availability search, let’s see whether the name is available to file federal trademark registration under The United States Trademark Office Regulations. 
    A company’s name is critical to the business since it can establish how others identify your business. The name creates your company’s brand and the perception others have of your business. The brand hopefully creates a perception of the quality of the goods or services your business offers to the public. The best business names have the power to make or break your company.
    What are the benefits of trademarking your business name? Here are several benefits associated with registering your business name.
    Preventing Confusion: This trademark registration element prevents consumer confusion. Establishing a business name and using taglines, logos, and company colors sets your company apart from other similar businesses, and trademark law protects rights to exclusive use. Additional support material: Trademarks and Copyrights (PDF) Download Trademarks and Copyrights (PDF)introduces small businesses’ to the available protection of Intellectual Property rights.
    Brand Definition: Picking a name is a decision designed to convey to your customers the quality of your product, what experience you want them to remember when recalling your name, the touch, feel, smell, and taste of your product, and location ambiance – your “businesses identity” all wrapped up in a delightful little package.
    Ancillary Benefits: Trademarks reassure investors’ consideration of investing in your company because the trademark establishes ownership. It also protects your sales by preventing consumer confusion when another company uses the same or a similar name selling similar products. Customer confusion can occur if consumers think they’re buying your product, but they buy your competitors’ product because of the similarity. A trademark also allows you to prevent others from using the same or a similar business name within your industry. Trademark statutes establish legal protection under the statutes that trigger a cease-and-desist letter or court action for an injunction and damages. Trademark registration provides national protection and national recognition. Once you register your business name, you nationally put others on notice of your existing brand.
    Read this article Protecting Your Trademark (USPTO.gov).Links to an external site. (Links to an external site.)
    Visit: Search trademark database (U.S. Patent and Trademark Office). (Links to an external site.) This link will assist you in determining whether or not other companies have already registered an identical or similar trademark name for the same category of goods and services you offer.
    Read the information on that page and then select “Search our trademark database (TESS)”. Once you are in TESS, choose the Search option for “Basic Word Mark Search (New User).” Type in your company name, click your mouse, drag it over the search page, and copy the information on that page with your company name in the box. Save a copy of this page in a Word document.
    Select “Submit Query.” The link will take you to the Name Research Records results page listing names similar or identical to your chosen name. The search records inform you that similar names don’t exist. If no similar protected names are discovered, applicants must still pass the trademark examiner’s search, a more in-depth search than performed by TESS. Trademark examiners are the final arbiter of whether a name will clear. Once you complete this, click your mouse over the results chart, drag the mouse down the list highlighting the page, and copy the list. Save and upload both lists for this assignment.
