Thank you We sneak and here's your shmoop usually brought

00:05

to you by charlie and unruly an entirely fictional celebrity

00:09

who bears no likeness tow any real world celebrity whatsoever

00:13

Seriously we've never seen anyone seen anyone like him before

00:18

Here's the question charlie had a number of public outburst

00:21

He blitz the media with his viewpoints on how his

00:23

producers had treated him poorly Charlie psychologist believed he made

00:27

poor choices that needed a gross psychologically and inter personally

00:31

Which approach did the psychologist support and hear the potential

00:35

answers I found him Okay Well the key word we

00:39

wanna hone in here people is interpersonal If we understand

00:43

that the term interpersonal refers to the communication and interaction

00:46

between among people we can easily eliminate a few of

00:49

our answers Well biological psychology for instance looks at the

00:53

physiological brain and the way it can affect human behavior

00:57

If the question specifically referred to are entirely fictitious celebrities

01:01

habit of drinking way too much alcohol and it's physiological

01:04

effect on his brain And maybe we'd have a case

01:06

from this answer Whoever that's not what we're dealing with

01:09

here so answer is gotta go and sure maybe all

01:11

Those nasty media headlines made mention of charlie's bad behavior

01:15

but our questions talking about growing psychologically and inter personally

01:20

it's not attempting to consider observable behaviors and what's causing

01:24

them which just happens to be the primary focus of

01:27

beef Eight year old psychology Well cognitive psychology looks in

01:30

the brain and its functions like perception problem solving and

01:33

creativity and ultimately focuses on the way in which it

01:36

processes and stores information We don't doubt that many have

01:40

wondered exactly how charlie's brain made him think that destroying

01:43

his hotel room was a good idea However this isn't

01:46

our correct answer and ease and obvious No because the

01:49

question makes no mention of darwin natural selection ancestors adaptation

01:53

or anything else remotely relating toe evolution though trashing the

01:57

hotel room does sound a lot like something a chimp

02:00

Well that leaves us with a humanistic approach emphasizes the

02:03

need for self actualization that is to be creative free

02:07

willed and positive is a whole person the very best

02:10

version of yourself Well this is exactly the sort of

02:12

thing charlie's likely not getting paid enough for This psychologist

02:16

is advocating for and it's also the right answer not

02:20

that charlie's a real person We wouldn't even be able

02:22

to think of two and a half men who fit 00:02:24.8 --> [endTime] the person We just described winning
