Activity:

The world now is experiencing chaos. Please imagine that there is an


impending melting of planet earth because of COVID-19 pandemic. All people are
asked to submit a BIODATA to the World Screening Committee. The committe will
only select 1,000 citizens from each country to be sent to an earth-like Planet in the
neighboring galaxy. As to what the criteria are for the selection process in unkown to
anyone.
Because of the urgency of the situation, you are only given ten minutes to fill
up the biodata form. You are supposed to draw the self-portrait accurately as possible.
Further, in order to increase your chance to be selected, you have to fill in all the
necessary data and the form.

The activity taught you to take time to know yourself better and deeper than
anyone else. You may not always have the luxury of time to examine yourself and
truly connect with your deepest thoughts.

Abstraction

Since the ancient times until the postmodern discourses, many Philosophers
grappled to understand the meaning of human life. They have attempted to answer the
question “Who am I?” and most of their views have influenced the way you look at
your lives today.

Time Frame: Week 3

Introduction
In your previous lesson, you were taught on the philosophical views of the
different philosophers that have helped you create your own Philosophy of Self and
you were also guided to answer the question Who Am I and write something about
yourself.
In this lesson, series of activities will be introduced that will explain the
relationship between the self and the external world. We may be gifted with intellect
and the capacity to rationalize things but at the end of the day, our growth and
development and consequently ourselves are truly products of our interaction with
external reality.

Stages of Development According to Mead

Language Gives the individual the capacity to express


himself or herself while at the same time
comprehending what other people are
conveying
Play Individual’s role play or assume the
perspective of others
Game The individual takes into account the societal
rules and adheres to it.

Two Sides of Self

Me The product of what a person has learned while


interacting with others and with the
environment. Learned behaviors and attitudes
and even expectations comprise the “me”. The
“me” exercises social control over the self. It
sees that the rule are not broken.

Module 1 9
I The part of the self that is unsocialized and
spontaneous. It is individual’s response to the
community’s attitude toward the person. The
“I” presents impulses and drives. It enables him
to express individualism and creativity.

Application

Answer the following questions cogently but honestly in a piece of paper:

1. How would you describe yourself?


2. What are the influences of family in your development as an individual?
3. Think of a time when you felt you were your” true self”. What made you think
you were truly who you are during this time of your life?
4. Following the questions above, can you provide a time when you felt you were
not living your “true self”? Why did you have to live a life like that? What did
you do about it?
5. What social pressures help shape yourself? Would you have wanted it
otherwise?
6. What aspects of yourself do you think may be changed or you would like to
change?

Learning Outcomes:

At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:


1) identify the different ideas in psychology about the “self”;
2) create your own definition of the self based on the definitions from
psychology; and
3) analyzing the effects of various factors identified in psychology in the
formation of the self.

Time Frame: Week 4

Introduction:

As discussed in the previous lessons, every field of study, at least in the social
sciences, have their own research, definition and conceptualization of self and
identity. Psychology may focus on the individual and the cognitive functions, but it
does not discount the context and other possible factors that affect the individual. This
lesson provides an overview of the themes of psychology regarding the said concept.

Activity:

“You” Through Others’ Eyes

This activity has two parts that try to compare how you look at yourself
against how people perceive you depending on how you present yourself to them. For
the first part, in a bond paper list ten (10) to fifteen (15) qualities or things that you
think define who you are around the human figure representing you.

For the second part, in the space below, write “I am _________ (your name).
Who do you think I am based on what you see me do or hear me say? Give your paper
to any member of the family after which, get the paper and read what has written on
it.

Module 1 11
Analysis:

Compare what you wrote about yourself to those written by any member of
your family. What aspects are similar and which are not? What aspects are always
true to you? What aspects are sometimes true or circumstantial? What aspects do you
think are not really part of your personality? Write your answers in a piece of paper.

Abstraction:

As mentioned earlier, there are various definitions of the self and other similar
or interchangeable concepts in psychology. Simply put, “self” is “the sense of
personal identity and if who we are as individuals.

Psychologists View of Self as Cognitive Construct


William James Viewed self as having two aspects-the “I” and the “me”. The
“I” is the thinking, acting, and feeling self, the “Me” is the
physical charcteristics as well as psychological capabilities tha
makes who ou are
Carl Rogers Captured this idea in his concept of self-schema or our
organized system or collection of knowledge about who we
are
Sigmund Freud Saw the sef, its mental processes, and one’s behavior as the
results of the interaction between the id, the ego and the
superego.
G.H Mead Argued that self is created and developed through human
interaction.

There are three reasons why self and identity are social
products:
a) We do not create ourselves out of nothing. Society
helped in creating the foundations of who we are and
even if we make our choices we still operate in our
scial and historical contexts in one way or the other.
b) Whether we like it or not, we actually need others to
allow and reinforce who we think we are.
c) What we think is important to us may also have been
influenced by what is important in our social or
historical context.
Carver and Scheier Identified two types of self that wen be aware of (1) the
private self or your internal standards and private thoughts and
feelings, and (2) the public self or your public image
commonly geared toward having a good presentation of
yourself to others.

Module 1 12
Baumeister, Smart Concluded that that programs, activities and parenting styles
and Boden to boost self-esteem should only be for rewarding good
behavior and other achievements and not for the purpose of
merely trying to make children feel better about themselves or
to appease them when they get angry or sad.

Application:

Do a research and list ten (10) things to boost your self-esteem or improve our
self-concept. Cite your sources. Analyze which of those tips are more likely to
backfire and make someone conceited or narcissistic and revise them to make the
statements both helpful to the individual as well as society in general.

Closure:

Congratulations for doing the activities well. Keep up the good work. For your
next lesson please have an advance reading on “The Self in Western and Eastern

Time Frame: Week 5

Introduction

It is important in our understanding of the self that we realize the blending of


the eastern and oriental traditions of Asia and the pacific, and the western traditions of
Europe and North America. The concepts we have ourselves are actual appreciation
of the unity between East-West and the North-South. In this lesson, we will discover
the diverse Western and Eastern perspectives of the self, unravel the Asian thoughts
of self and lastly, make a representation of the Filipino self. It is essential to study
other cultures and one’s own culture to understand oneself and others.

These characteristics and beliefs are diverse but has great impact on who a
person is and will become. Therefore, defining the “self.”

Abstraction

Western Concept of Self

The Ancient Greek philosophers see humans as the


bearer of irreplaceable values and these values are being
viewed and adapted as one’s principle in life up until today.
Some of the famous Greek philosophers are Aristotle, Plato
and Socrates.

Rene Descartes and his famous dictum, “I think,


www.azquotes.com/author/3897-
therefore I am” as the epitome of Western idea of self during Rene_Descartes
the Renaissance.

Frank Johnson (1985), a psychiatrist and professor, outlined four categories on how
the term “self” is used in contemporary Western discussion:

1. Analytical - By analytic, Johnson meant the “tendency to see reality as an aggregate


of parts.” The “self” is an observer separate and distinct from external objects (Me
versus Other).
2. Monotheistic - Monotheisminvolved the tendency toward unitary explanations of
phenomena and a closed-system view of “self” as modeled after a unitary, omnipotent
power (“Man was created by God, in His image).
3. Individualistic- Individualism is a quality of Western thinking where self-expression
and self-actualization are important ways of establishing who one is as well as in
finding satisfaction in the world.
4. Materialistic/rationalistic - Western thinking tends to discredit explanations that do
not use analytic-deductive modes of thinking. (Johnson, 1985; Goldin, 2000).

Module 1 15
Eastern Concept of Self

The earliest religious writing in the East is


the Vedas – a collection of poems, chants or hymns.
The Vedas illustrates the Eastern mindset of a non-
dual universe but rather a creation that is completely
unified with the creator, with no distinction (Watts,
1965;Wolter, 2013). It formed the Hindu
philosophy and dharma (the principle of cosmic
order). According to these sacred Hindu texts, the
true nature of humans is described as “Brahman” www.meditationexpert.info/daily-meditation/
which is the divine universal consciousness
encompassing the universe. The Brahman is the Self that is all within us. Thus, one of the
main points of Hinduism is “change your perception of the world to perceive the Brahman in
oneself and in others” (Watts, 1965; Wolter; 2013).

Buddhism is composed of the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama or Buddha. In


Buddhist traditions the “self” is a dynamic process. It is interdependent and ever changing.
Self is not an entity, a substance, or essence. Buddhist tradition believes that human being’s
inborn flawed view of “self” as an enduring entity is the causes his/ or her suffering because
he or she tries to hold on to that which is in constant flux (constantly flowing or constantly
changing) and has no existence outside of shifting contexts (Galin, 2003). Thus, a new
corrective experience of the “self” is needed.

In Confucianism, the quest for the “self” in terms of substance, of spirit, of body, or
of essence does not exist. The form which Confucius’ wrote about the concept of “self” is that
of personality. The qualities that form a person’s character are not something that exists
rather, in Confucian thought it is something that is formed through upbringing and the
environment (Klemme, 1999; Ames, 1994; Graham, 1990). Personality is not a given human
condition rather it is an achieved state of moral excellence. The Confucian concept of self is
deeply embedded within the family and society, and it is only in that context that the self
comes to be what it is (Quinlan, 2001; Chinavoc, 2007). Thus, such achieved personality, or
self, is not to be understood as primarily an individual entity.

Taoism does not regard the “self” as an extension of (or defined by) social
relationships unlike Confucianism. The “self” is part of the universe and one of the countless
manifestations of the Tao or “Way”. According to Chuang-tzu, “The perfect man has no self;
the spiritual man has no achievement; the true sage has no name". The ideal is thus
selflessness. In sum, Chuang-tzu's beginning of selfhood involves conscious self-
transformation leading to the qualities of a balanced life in harmony with both nature and
society (Ho, 1995).

In conclusion, the Western thoughts are more


individualistic, the focus is always looking towards the self -
trying to find meaning of life here and now with self at the
center, as it is already given and part of the divine. While the
Eastern thoughts are drawn more into groups or society or
people’s thoughts and actions as one in order to find meaning
in life as they try to get rid of the “false” me and find
meaning in discovering the “true” me in relation to everything
around them as part of the nature and society.

Module 1 16
The “Self” in Asian Thoughts

Asia is the world’s most populated continent in the world, its culture is diverse
and colorful making it immensely interesting. Collectively, Asians are very strongly
attached in their homelands which preserve their culture and tradition because of
people’s faithful practice – commonly rooted from their different religions.

Various languages, dresses, festivals, religious customs and other unique


Asian customs exist in Asia. Because of this diversity an individual has his or her own
definition of finding oneself or the “self”. One may discover the “self” from values
from one generation to another, majority base from their religions (considering that
Asia has existing hundreds of religions) and others were also influenced by other
practices from other parts of the world.

In the case of the Philippines, we can also consider the colonization


experience for differences and similarities with our Asian neighbors. We might also
find variation among provinces and regions due to geographical conditions.

This chapter introduced you to a philosophical, social and psychological


analysis of the self. We began by distinguishing the different philsophical
perspectives, self according to sociologist, psychologist and the oriental perspectives.
Topics on understanding how you think and feel about yourself, how you want to
think and feel about yourself and how these thoughts and feelings develop and guide
behavior were explored to help you in your quest in understanding who you are.
