Question 1

Which theorist proposed the socius as a unit of social analysis?
◦ James Mark Baldwin
◦ Hazel Rose Markus
◦ Charles Horton Cooley
◦ William James

Question 2

Why is the self-schema a cognitive representation of the self?
◦ There is no actual "self" that can be objectively identified or isolated within a person; rather, the self can be conceptualized as a collection of thoughts, knowledge, and evaluations.
◦ The distinction between "I" and "me" was never clearly articulated or pursued by psychologists; therefore, theorists required a different approach to understanding the self.
◦ Representations based on feelings or emotions are too fleeting to capture the unchanging, unalterable nature of the self.
◦ Cognitive processes are shared in common by all people, which means that the same core traits that make up each person's self-concept will be emphasized to the same degree across individuals.
