Does anyone else find this interestingly basic for a university level?

I looked at this video to gain an insight into the study of Psychology.

Classroom discussion really never age. It's as useful as before.

@Muffinfordinner are you a psychologist who worked on this to question it? Physics are not sure to be completely right - all the rules will be crushed quite possibly, when we find the way out of solar system, but will you stop learning physics and start denying it just for a possibility that it all is made up and wrong?

2. I'm a little suspicious about reducing 17954 words to just 5. I'm sure many of them are synonyms but generally we wouldn't invent a new word without the need for a new subtle distinction. Also, I don't see how we can group these words together in categories. What does artisticness have to do with having a variety of interests? Someone might be really good at painting and nothing else.

This class goes well with the analysis of categorization we got in an earlier lecture.

1. The triangle of reciprocal determinism is not really reciprocal among all 3 three factors. While environment shapes the personality, the personality cannot directly shape the environment. It can only do so through the intermediary of behavior.

These are just what I've been looking for and they were right here all the time. I'd really like to have these as an audiobook so I could listen to them at 2x.
