I picked my major (psychology) because it happened to be my favorite course in high school. Never mind that I’d only taken Psychology 101, a beginners course, and that was my exposure in it’s entirety to anything psychology related. I remember in my first year of college, I was lost. The way I did that?

Dr. John Krumboltz, Professor of Educational Psychology at Standford University studies how people choose careers. I majored in Psychology (liberal arts), graduating in the early 70’s. I didn’t even realize that most jobs required a doctorate in Psychology to really use the knowledge in a career.

We are after all, social animals, genetically and psychologically geared toward being part of a group. What if all those citizens in each of the 12 districts had refused to give up their sons and daughters to the hunger game? The group can provide rules to live by, protection, food and companionship.

We took a day trip to a small town in our area several years ago with our grown son and daughter-in-law. Using cash is seems tougher psychologically. You’ll never be declined when using cash. Some places do not accept credit cards. Because we drove, they were going to treat us to lunch. They had no cash. We bought lunch.

Ariel Knafo and other researchers from the psychology department at Hebrew University in Jerusalem designed and conducted an experiment that showed that certain people actually have DNA specific to giving. I do this with my daughter-in-law. Your goal is to show them they types of things you like, not the exact ones.

It was a real struggle for me to maintain a well groomed home when my daughter was younger and before I divorced. There are probably a couple of psychological reasons for it. I don’t know if I started out that way, but by the time I was an adult the clutter tendencies were definitely there.
