Ever since I took psychology last year, I have found it to be very interesting and I’m really looking forward to this class. I think that psychology is extremely fascinating and something that I am really interested in. During this class I excited to learn more about cognitive development in children, because I found that subject to be my favorite last year. I have always loved children and learning more about the way they think is just super interesting to me. I am also looking forward to learning about the human memory, because that was another one of my favorite topics. I think that this class will be very different from all my other classes because it is more of a college level course and something that I am extremely interested in; psychology is one of my favorite subjects and I really enjoy learning more about it. Ever since I took psychology last year I found it to be something that I wanted to pursue more and more. It is also something I am looking at to continue in the future.

While I was reading the prologue and chapter 1 I thought that the levels of analysis was an interesting topic. Know that the biopsychosocial integrates the viewpoint of the various levels of analysis and seeing the complete picture of how they work together and create someone. Seeing how the biological, psychological, and social-cultural all work together to make up the behavior and mental process is quite fascinating to me. I think that seeing how your brain mechanism, emotional responses and the presence of others can work together to create how someone acts and behaves is strange up really works. Everything and everyone influences your life and how you act. Seeing all the different things that do influence your life and what is in each part is awesome and interesting. I feel that the following picture really shows what each level is made up of and how it creates what everyone is made up of. I found that the whole reading was interesting, but this is something that really caught my eye and I was interested in.
