Podcast appearances and mentions of Julian B Rotter

Ihr hört jetzt eine ganz besondere Folge: Wir haben sie in der Klinik aufgenommen, in der Annika mit einer schweren Infektion eingeliefert wurde. Als es ihr besser ging, wollte sie unbedingt genau diese Sendung aufnehmen, die sich mit Kontrolle und Kontrollverlust beschäftigt. Denn in einem lebensbedrohlichen Zustand ins Krankenhaus gebracht zu werden, ist purer Kontrollverlust, oder? Psychologisch hat sich Julian B. Rotter schon in den 50er Jahren mit dem Thema beschäftigt. Er hat die psychologische Theorie der Kontrollüberzeugung, auch als “Locus of Control” bekannt, entwickelt. Sie besagt, dass Menschen unterschiedliche Überzeugungen darüber haben, ob sie ihr eigenes Leben kontrollieren können - oder ob äußere Umstände und Zufälle ihr Schicksal beeinflussen. Diese Überzeugungen werden als “internale Kontrollüberzeugung” oder “externale Kontrollüberzeugung” bezeichnet. Es gibt seit dem zahlreiche Studien, die sich mit der Auswirkung der Kontrollüberzeugung auf das Verhalten und die psychische Gesundheit beschäftigen. Alle kommen zu dem Ergebnis: Internale Kontrollüberzeugung, also das Gefühl, alles selbst recht gut im Griff zu haben, ist gesünder, als das Gefühl "Spielball der Mächte" zu sein. Wie ist es bei Dir: Bist Du Boss in Deinem Leben? Viel Spaß mit dieser besonderen Folge - und wie immer freuen wir uns natürlich über Eure Kommentare! Annika + Michael

Locus of control is the degree to which people believe that they, as opposed to external forces (beyond their influence), have control over the outcome of events in their lives. The concept was developed by Julian B. Rotter in 1954, and has since become an aspect of personality psychology. A person's "locus" (plural "loci", Latin for "place" or "location") is conceptualized as internal (a belief that one can control one's own life) or external (a belief that life is controlled by outside factors which the person cannot influence, or that chance or fate controls their lives). George Costanza of Seinfeld fame is a classic example of someone who lives with a mindset that nothing is in his control, and nothing is fair.In this episode, Frank and Ian break down the tangible value of mindset in relation to careers:How early do we start to develop a locus of control?The role of sports on our mindsetWhy we take credit for the good, but explain away the badHow external limelighters make others feelThe double standard - we expect others to own it, but don't always hold ourselves to that standardUnintended consequences of being too hard on yourself

Locus of control is a psychological concept which gives the fact how people believe internal or external factors over the outcome of events in their lives. The concept was developed by Julian B.

O dia 31 de dezembro é um marco para o encerramento de um ciclo. Pensamos em tudo que queremos deixar para trás, nos hábitos que precisamos modificar, nas mudanças que buscamos para o novo período que se inicia. De um dia para o outro nossas energias se renovam, somos tomados por um alto nível de motivação, queremos ser mais produtivos, almejar novas conquistas, nos enchemos de esperança ansiando um futuro melhor. Entretanto, realizar a tal da "Resolução de Ano Novo" não é um desafio simples. Ao longo dos 12 meses, é muito comum que a nossa motivação diminua, que a gente se auto-sabote, que fatores externos nos atrapalhem, e a gente se perca. Abrimos mão de certos objetivos, e podemos até esquecer qual era a prioridade inicial. De acordo com as estatísticas (fonte: Universidade de Scranton nos EUA), 45% das pessoas costumam fazer a lista de objetivos do ano, metade delas se mantém comprometidas até junho, e somente 8% delas atingem seus objetivos. Existem vários fatores que ocorrem no nosso sistema cognitivo que explicam o porquê temos a tendência em ter um comportamento pouco produtivo. O psicólogo americano Julian B. Rotter desenvolveu uma teoria chamada "locus de controle". Ele propõe que o comportamento de um indivíduo pode ser estimulado por uma referência interna ou externa, e consequentemente suas experiências de sucessos e fracassos também serão reconhecidas sob essa perspectiva. Na prática, significa que pessoas que se encontram predominantemente sob o locus interno, se sentem mais no controle da próprio destino. Priorizam seu esforço pessoal, suas competências, focam em solucionar seus próprios problemas. Enquanto aquelas com um locus predominantemente externo, sentem que as condições externas que o mundo proporciona possuem um controle maior na sua própria vida. Elas são mais dependentes emocionais, são mais afetadas por críticas e elogios, costumam se sentir vitimizadas e exigem mais dos outros. No livro "Rápido e Devagar duas formas de pensar" o autor Daniel Kahneman aborda a existência de dois sistemas na mente humana. O sistema 1 opera automática e rapidamente, com pouco ou nenhum esforço e nenhuma percepção de controle voluntário. Já o sistema 2 aloca atenção as atividades mentais que exigem concentração e raciocínio. Ele é lento, é onde identificamos o "eu consciente", aquele que faz escolhas e toma decisões. (...) Desta forma, se torna essencial aprender a utilizar mecanismos que nos ajudem a lidar com as características da mente. Um fato primordial, que permeia diversas pesquisas é: o comportamento é uma escolha. Temos pleno controle das nossas próprias atitudes. Nesse episódio, vamos aprender com a @miruffato como estruturar metas utilizando a metodologia S.M.A.R.T. >> Convidada: Michele Ruffato Vaz > FALE CONOSCO!

God, will it always be like this? That was what their heart was wanting to know. The answer lay in knowing their slave master of despair. Hope is the dance partner of Faith and Love. Every day felt the same, in fact, every week and every month. Do the job, make a meal, go to sleep: repeat, repeat, repeat — monotonous drudgery. It wasn’t just the repetitive nature of the grind that got to you., it was the slow wearing down of the soul. It was like something beautiful and purposeful was being scraped off a ‘Mona Lisa,’ dropped on the floor, trampled on, and ground into dust. They sensed they were losing themselves. Who they were, who they were meant to be — all at the hands of a slavemaster tyrant.   Your slave master What keeps you stuck? What keeps you in the same Mental Health timezone? That hole of depression. That tightrope of anxiety. For a nation of people, it was the oppression of an Egyptian slavemaster. They were building a man’s glory while destroying their own. That was the lot of the nation of Israel. Slaves to Pharoah. Brickmakers day in, day out. So they [the Egyptians] organized them into work-gangs and put them to hard labor under gang-foremen.They built the storage cities Pithom and Rameses for Pharaoh. But the harder the Egyptians worked them, the more children the Israelites had—children everywhere!The Egyptians got so they couldn’t stand the Israelites and treated them worse than ever, crushing them with slave labor.They made them miserable with hard labor—making bricks and mortar and back-breaking work in the fields.They piled on the work, crushing them under the cruel workload. Exodus 1:11-14 It’s easy to identify an external slavemaster. It’s their fault. They are the ones to blame. They are the ones who are making my life miserable. So easy to give others more power than God ever wanted them to have. Yes, some people are controllers; they like to be slave masters, dominating, and oppressing. They, too, are trapped in their fears. Locus of control There is an interesting psychological concept called Locus of control Locus of control is the degree to which people believe that they have control over the outcome of events in their lives, as opposed to external forces beyond their control. Understanding of the concept was developed by Julian B. Rotter in 1954, and has since become an aspect of personality studies.A person’s “locus” (plural “loci,” Latin for “place” or “location”) is conceptualized as internal (a belief that one can control one’s own life) or external (a belief that life is controlled by outside factors which the person cannot influence, or that chance or fate controls their lives).[1] Individuals with a strong internal locus of control believe events in their life derive primarily from their own actions: for example, when receiving exam results, people with an internal locus of control tend to praise or blame themselves and their abilities. People with a strong external locus of control tend to praise or blame external factors such as the teacher or the exam. Wikipedia Locus of control What does your focus tell you about your locus? I have found in myself and others that focusing on how other people treat you (external locus) takes away a sense of personal power. You give the other more power than they need to have. We even can do this with God. Blaming God for our circumstances instead of taking healthy responsibility for our own choices. Oh, yes, and we can blame the devil. ‘The devil made me buy this dress’ by Flip Wilson springs to mind (must listen!). There has to be a time where you come to an internal locus of control. What can I do? What do I have control over? The crying out of the slave There comes a time when you have had enough of being a slave. The slavery of a belief you have held in your brain. A Pharoah sized belief is keeping you in captivity. You recognize that there is some internal thinking work you need to do. No one else can do this for you. It’s your brain, your responsibility, 100%. You cry out in prayer because you realize that this is too big for you to do it by yourself.   Supernatural goals need supernatural resources. Larry Crabb   You sense yourself as being like those Israelites. The Israelites groaned under their slavery and cried out. Their cries for relief from their hard labor ascended to God: God listened to their groanings. God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. God saw what was going on with Israel. God understood. Exodus 2: 23-25 (The Message) Then, in the male aspect of God’s divine nature, God moves (Exodus 3). Your Moses God moves to a man on the run. A man also trapped and enslaved by his beliefs. Moses had been living in the desert for 40 years. He had killed an Egyptian slavemaster and had fled. Forty years of being shaped by both the harshness and the beauty of the wilderness. Forty years in the wilderness getting to know the beastProjected and reflected on the greatest and the leastForty years of days and nights — angels hovering nearKept me moving forward though the way was far from clearBruce Cockburn We all need a Moses. Someone who will speak healing truth to our lies, the concoctions we have created in our minds that keep us enslaved. It will be Spirit (Holy) nudging, poking, prodding, alluring us to face the falsity. I will talk to the Father, and he’ll provide you another Friend so that you will always have someone with you. This Friend is the Spirit of Truth.  Jesus John 14:16-17 The words of encouragement will come through others. People who have a compelling vision for you that things can be different. Silence will be involved where you have to both wrestle and dance with your own beliefs. I, Barry, may also be involved. If I can, at the very least, pray for you, then it would be a great privilege. Send me an email via the contact form. Will it always be like this? I don’t think so. History tells me that change happens. Hope is the dance partner of Faith and Love, so let’s keep seeing where this leads. Quotes to consider Despair is what happens when there is a lack of new creation. When things are just are what they are and there is a deep sense of impotence that there is nothing you can do about it. Rob Bell Episode 219 | Jesus H. Christ – Part 9 – Is That His Last Name? Despair is a spiritual condition. Despair is when you fall under the belief and conviction that tomorrow will simply be a repeat of today. Rob Bell  Without the inner discipline of faith, most lives end in negativity, blaming, or deep cynicism—without even knowing it. Richard Rohr Page: 24 Eager to Love: The Alternative Way of Francis of Assisi  Faith is not the clinging to a shrine but an endless pilgrimage of the heart. Abraham Joshua Heschel When you are no longer able to change, what will God do with you, if you have not yet become what He wants?  D. Riddell God does not love you if and when you change. God loves you so that you can change. Richard Rohr Don’t judge the future by the past – the future will be different when new insights and understandings restore hope. David Riddell Questions to answer What beliefs are keeping you, enslaved? What’s it like to know God listens to your groans, remembers the promises, sees your plight, and understands? What would ‘God moving’ into your situation look like? Would you like an ‘on the run’ convict to be your advocate/ rescuer? Further reading Barry Pearman Image cc: Nagy Arnold

To help us explore these topics further, I have invited Dr. Bob Midden to talk with us today. Dr. Midden is an Associate Professor of Chemistry and the Associate Vice Provost for Experiential and Innovative Learning here at BGSU. He came to BGSU in 1987 to join a team of scientists to build a new Ph.D. program in photochemical sciences and established BGSU as a national leader in photochemical sciences research. Since then his research interests have shifted from bioorganic photochemistry to finding ways to reform education at all levels. The recipient of more than $18 million in grants from federal and state agencies and private foundations, he has led multiple intercollegiate teams in efforts to improve K-12 as well as undergraduate and graduate instruction in the sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (or STEM) fields.Dr. Midden was the director of the Chapman Learning Community, which was the first comprehensive residential learning community at BGSU. He developed alternative learning experiences and actively engaged students with projects serving the surrounding communities. He also spearheaded an initiative to integrate service-learning into the undergraduate curriculum and to document the many ways in which faculty create such opportunities for their students.Dr. Midden was also the Director of the Northwest Ohio Center for Excellence in STEM Education (or NWO) with the mission of advancing STEM education for people of all ages. NWO serves the 29 counties of the northwest quadrant of Ohio and involves partnerships with most of the higher education institutions, many K-12 school districts, as well as numerous businesses and non-profit organizations throughout the region. NWO provides a variety of services to the region including K-12 and college faculty professional development, hosting annual symposia and student STEM competitions, administering multiple STEM college student scholarship programs, fostering the development of a new Learning Sciences doctoral program, and sponsoring other events aimed at promoting interest and success in STEM disciplines.In addition to his work as NWO Director, Dr. Midden lead a scientific research project investigating major issues threatening the environmental integrity and economic vitality of Lake Erie and other Ohio lakes, rivers, and streams. This project has involved more than 40 undergraduate and graduate students over the last five years and involves collaboration with several government agencies and scientists from throughout the region in addressing one of the most pressing environmental issues in Ohio.Bob is a colleague and good friend of mine. He helped me facilitate several learning communities and lead many teaching and learning workshops. He is someone who teaches me something new or presents a complicated concept with a fresh perspective every single time I talk to him. Please welcome Dr. Bob Midden._______________________Table of Contents:00:00 - Introduction - Locus of Control, Growth Mindset, and Control of Learning Beliefs07:15 - Interview with Dr. Bob Midden_______________________Interact with Dr. Partin and the Teaching and Learning Professor community at:https://www.facebook.com/theteachingandlearningprofessor/_______________________ Today’s theme centers around 3 closely related concepts: 1) Locus of Control, 2) Growth Mindset, and 3) Control of Learning Beliefs. This episode will address several questions about these topics including What are they? What is the difference between them? Why are they important? and How do these concepts affect teaching and learning?The First Concept- Locus of Control was developed in 1954 by Julian B. Rotter who was a psychology professor at The Ohio State University and later the University of Connecticut. Locus of Control refers to a person’s belief in how much control they have over the outcomes in their life. Locus of control can be internal or external. Someone with a strong internal locus of control tends to believe that incidents in their life stem predominantly from their own actions. For example, the results of a high scoring exam, stem from their own effort or ability… In other words, they did well on an exam because they studied a lot or they are just highly intelligent. On the other hand, the student may believe they did poorly on an exam because they didn’t study enough.Someone with a strong external locus of control may be inclined to praise or blame external factors for their exam grade, such as the teacher was terrible or the exam itself was too hard or too confusing.The Second Concept- Growth Mindset was described in a 2006 book by Carol Dweck called “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success”. She was a psychology professor at Columbia University, Harvard University, the University of Illinois, and most recently Stanford University.Deweck explains that mindsets can be described as a continuum between fixed mindsets and growth mindsets. Students with a fixed mindset believe that physical or mental abilities are predominantly constant (or fixed) and view the cause of their failures as the lack of essential proficiencies. They may give up on a difficult task quickly, because they believe they don’t have the required skills for success. They believe that they have a certain amount of intelligence and it cannot change. Their goal may become to “appear smart at all costs and to not look dumb”. They tend to avoid difficult problems and view a “wrong answer” as a failure.Students with a growth mindset believe that they can acquire about any new skill or ability if they invest enough time or effort into learning how to do it. They tend to choose more difficult problems to work on if given the choice and see “wrong answers” as an opportunity to learn. They tend to persist much longer at a difficult task than students with a fixed mindset and tend to be more successful.The Third Concept- Control of Learning Beliefs comes from a theory called Self-Regulated Learning (SLR). This theory states that learning is guided by 3 things 1) metacognition (thinking about one’s thinking), 2) strategic action (planning, monitoring, and assessing advancement in skill level), and 3) motivation (intrinsic, extrinsic, self-efficacy). It is believed that self-regulated learners are aware of their academic strengths and weaknesses. They have a selection of strategies they use to overcome typical academic tasks. They most likely believe intelligence can be gained and it is not fixed. They also tend to attribute their success or failures to things within their control.To make a long story short, self-regulated learners believe that academic achievement will result from opportunities to take on difficult assignments, practicing new skills, acquiring a profound understanding of a topic, and putting effort into learning. They are successful because they control their learning environment. They apply this control by aligning their actions toward their learning goals and regulating their progress._________________Support this podcast at RedCircle— DONATE TODAY!!I’m using your donations to buy a new microphone and studio equipment to improve my sound.
