Hi everyone,

Module 10

Module 10 is an application of the "Self" system from psychology. The key
concepts are that your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and the environment
(surroundings, reactions of others) are all interconnected. When you control
how you think, you also can control how you feel and behave. How you behave,
in turn, influences the reactions you get from others. In other
words, to a large extent you create your own reality. Look at Figure 10.1 on
page 173 of your LMS text if you're having problems answering some of the
questions in Module 10. Note that each block in the figure interacts
(influences) two others.

Portfolio 10

Portfolio 10 requires detailed records about your environment and thoughts
from four days. You need to set yourself a specific proximal goal and select
two incentives for achieving that goal. You also need to develop four
self-talk scripts. Of the four days you track two days should be before the
intervention and then two days with the intervention. When you
evaluate your experience, you need to tell what you found out about what it
takes for you to make desired changes IN GENERAL, i.e. beyond the scope of
the specific proximal goal you set for yourself.

Extra Credit Portfolio

Portfolio 12, for 30 extra credit points, is due Wednesday, November 30th at
6 PM.
