Assignment 1: Discussion—Environmental Factors
In this assignment, you will have a chance to discuss a topic
that brings personality theory together with social psychology.
Dealing with unhealthy groups like gangs or cults is an
important issue in social psychology. However, you cannot fully
address this issue if you do not first understand personality
development and how one’s personality affects the choices that
are made. Specifically, you will look at Skinner’s behavioral
perspective on personality development and discuss how that
theory can play a role in this issue of unhealthy groups.
Bob is an adolescent who grew up in a gang-infested part of a
large city. His parents provided little supervision while he was
growing up and left Bob mostly on his own. He developed
friendships with several kids in his neighborhood who were
involved in gangs, and eventually joined a gang himself. Now
crime and gang activities are a way of life for Bob. These have
become his way to identify with his peer group and to support
himself.
It is relatively easy to see that Bob’s environment has played a
large role in his current lifestyle. This coincides with Skinner’s
concept of environment being the sole determinant of how
personality develops. Skinner believed that if you change
someone’s environment and the reinforcements in that
environment, you can change their behavior.
Use the Internet, Argosy University library resources, and your
textbook to research Skinner’s concept of the environment and
answer the following questions:
If you were to create an environment for Bob to change his
behavior from that of a gang member to a respectable and law-
abiding citizen, what types of environmental changes and
positive reinforcements would you suggest and why?
What are some interventions that are used in the field currently?
Are there any evidence-based programs that use these
environmental and reinforcement interventions?
Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA
standards to citation of sources.
By
Saturday, March 1, 2014
, post your response to the appropriate
Discussion Area
. Through
Wednesday, March 5, 2014
, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.

Assignment 1 Discussion—Environmental FactorsIn this assignment, .docx

  • 1. Assignment 1: Discussion—Environmental Factors In this assignment, you will have a chance to discuss a topic that brings personality theory together with social psychology. Dealing with unhealthy groups like gangs or cults is an important issue in social psychology. However, you cannot fully address this issue if you do not first understand personality development and how one’s personality affects the choices that are made. Specifically, you will look at Skinner’s behavioral perspective on personality development and discuss how that theory can play a role in this issue of unhealthy groups. Bob is an adolescent who grew up in a gang-infested part of a large city. His parents provided little supervision while he was growing up and left Bob mostly on his own. He developed friendships with several kids in his neighborhood who were involved in gangs, and eventually joined a gang himself. Now crime and gang activities are a way of life for Bob. These have become his way to identify with his peer group and to support himself. It is relatively easy to see that Bob’s environment has played a large role in his current lifestyle. This coincides with Skinner’s concept of environment being the sole determinant of how personality develops. Skinner believed that if you change someone’s environment and the reinforcements in that environment, you can change their behavior. Use the Internet, Argosy University library resources, and your textbook to research Skinner’s concept of the environment and answer the following questions: If you were to create an environment for Bob to change his behavior from that of a gang member to a respectable and law- abiding citizen, what types of environmental changes and positive reinforcements would you suggest and why? What are some interventions that are used in the field currently? Are there any evidence-based programs that use these environmental and reinforcement interventions? Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA
