QUESTION 9

  1. Instructions: Please read the passage below, then answer the questions that follow.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Zoey wanted to buy a new car but was having difficulty deciding what kind of car to buy. She was feeling anxious and wanted to make a decision soon. It was a very cold day in January, and she was preparing for a long day; so Zoey decided to wear her glasses, a long pea coat, and her work satchel. Zoey had conducted some research and was pretty certain of the vehicle that she wanted. Zoey visited some local car dealers and asked for the advice of some of her friends. The salesmen at the dealerships were all very nice and seemed knowledgeable about the car that she was considering. Zoey found this to be surprising because the stereotype of a “car salesman” is that they are manipulative and will try to cheat you out of your money. However, Zoey wasn’t worried about being taken advantage of because she tends to think critically before making decisions.

    During her car search, the first salesman asked if she was a teacher. Zoey was offended by this, because she is a musician and looks nothing like a teacher! The second salesman asked her if she would be making a purchase without her husband, which also irritated Zoey. Finally, Zoey made a decision with the third dealer that she visited and purchased her vehicle. What eventually won her over is that the salesman spoke in simple terms, complimented her on how intelligent she was, and offered her a deal that the sales manager agreed to.

    Zoey would be considered creatively intelligent based on the information listed about her.

There have been a number of studies that have focused on emotions and gender. Cummins (2014) discussed a number of them. One that she reviewed showed there was a large difference in empathic reactions to pictures between males and females; however she felt the study was flawed because it relied upon self-report (Cummins, 2014). This could have led the males to play down any empathy because they have been socialized to do so (2014). When studies have been conducted that utilize mRIs and other functional brain tests, the differences are diminished, and it is clearly seen that men and women process emotional content in different areas of the brain (Cummins, 2014). If this is biological in nature, how do we address the socialization concerns in order to bring more alignment to both men and women in regards to emotional reactions?

Read the case described below and apply an ecological theory to this case as you explain...

Read the case described below and apply an ecological theory to this case as you explain some possible mechanisms by which Mae became a victim. There are 4 elements to the ecological theory, and your ability to apply those elements is worth 2 points each (for a total of 8 points). 18-year-old Mae is a quiet and gentle person by nature. She rarely complains or draws any attention to herself. This past fall, she went away to college in Detroit, Michigan, leaving her family and her small, safe hometown of Smallville, Idaho for the first time. Mae had grown up in a close knit family and had had the same large circle of friends since childhood. Mae had never been on her own before, and was quite nervous to be so far out of her comfort zone. During her college orientation, she was warned about the prevalence of sexual assault on college campuses, so when Mae went to her first college party, she went with another girl from her dorm who she had recently met and guarded her drink all night. Despite her precautions, Mae lost her buddy around 1am, and had no one to walk home with. Because it was only a few blocks to her dorm room, she decided to walk. Mae was a runner on her High School track team, so she figured she could run back to her room in just a few minutes. Tragically, Mae's plans were interrupted when she was met by 4 males on her way home. They surprised her, and surrounded her. Knowing that she was outnumbered, Mae hardly put up a fight when they carried her to a secluded area. She knew there was no point in trying to fight 4 men on her own. Mae was raped by all four men, and because she didn't scream or try to run away, all four of them told her repeatedly that she must be enjoying the sex. After hearing it a number of times, their message began to sink in. So when Mae eventually made it back to her room that night, she decided not to call the police and report the incident. She didn't know how she would explain to them why she didn't yell or try to run away. She was certain that they would blame her for the incident, and even she wondered if she was partially to blame.
