Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?! Chapter 984 - 765: This Is a Good Thing
Speaking of the issue of "attribution bias," Nan Zhubin’s tone involuntarily carried a hint of sentint.
"Although we didn’t talk much, looking at that brief exchange just now, he’s the only economic pillar of his family. Moreover—" Nan Zhubin said, "he’s the kind of person who has a strong sense of responsibility, voluntarily taking on the family role."
In so families, male mbers who bear the economic responsibility might complain about it, or even be unwilling to take on such a role.
Old Mo’s situation can be described as a more traditional, positively biased "chauvinism."
However, this personality trait hard him when encountering the current difficult situation.
"Due to personal attribution bias, he might attribute all current predicants solely to himself, even to so extent ignoring external factors like the unreasonable layoff policy and perfunctory evasion from the HR departnt."
"This leads to the thought of solving all problems by himself, and among all ans to resolve them, there’s a tendency towards ’self-sacrifice’ and ’self-punishnt.’"
Mo Kai suddenly raised his hand: "Senior, but Old Mo’s situation back then didn’t seem like Wizard Company’s layoff policy was unreasonable... He had a lot of grievances against the company."
Upon hearing this, the master’s students also nodded repeatedly, so not quite understanding Nan Zhubin’s analysis.
Chonghui, as the senior brother, found it hard to tolerate these students’ shallow consulting foundations, considering they were all his juniors.
"Contradictory thoughts can completely coexist in the brain." Chonghui hinted, "Cognitive conflict, or if we lower the dinsion, thought conflict, attribution conflict—can you understand?"
The master’s students were forcibly pulled into the professional field and began to think.
Chonghui continued, "What people fear the most is internal conflict, as it represents the individual’s inability to complete coordination internally over a long period, thus consuming their psychological resources for an extended ti."
"Of course, from a ’common sense’ perspective, a person shouldn’t have conflicting thoughts simultaneously."
"But in our profession and industry... sotis it’s better not to evaluate people using ’common sense.’"
Chonghui shook his head: "Like the employees in this company, if they maintain external attribution that ’the company treats people unfairly,’ then venting by criticizing the company might ease their mood sowhat; if they decisively seek other job opportunities, it might help alleviate their predicant."
"On the other hand, those who maintain self-attribution, thinking ’it’s all because of my lack of ability,’ will submit and accept the company’s terms—objectively, this behavior is hard to assess, but at least it avoids internal self-conflicts."
Lying flat as a passive option is sotis a minimally healthy lifestyle.
"However, these two thoughts coexist in Old Mo. It’s not coexistence; it’s conflict, repeated friction, unable to determine a winner, resulting in intermittent continuous conflict."
"Each conflict consus a bit of his psychological energy." Nan Zhubin nodded, agreeing with Chonghui’s words, then continued his own line of thought, "Long-term excessive consumption of psychological resources... makes it incredibly easy for an individual to make extrely irrational impulsive choices at certain monts."
To put it more colloquially, it’s like lowering their sanity.
"All these are internal reasons Old Mo caused for this conflict." Nan Zhubin sighed, "If the external environnt hadn’t deteriorated, maybe he could have managed to maintain."
"After all, the human body has protection chanisms. Psychological exhaustion caused by self-conflict, like Old Mo, might be relieved through so spontaneous actions."
"Unfortunately..."
The external environnt wasn’t ideal.
After all, reality is unpredictable; even an individual without any problems, close to being a ’healthy person’ in the psychological sense, could be driven mad, let alone Old Mo, who was already precarious.
"Given these internal factors, and adding the frustration he just suffered today, as well as the betrayal and despair possibly brought about by the situation where ’we and Shi Chuxin appeared simultaneously’ in his cognition..."
Nan Zhubin summarized, "Ultimately caused the conflict today."
The project team mbers all fell into silence as they absorbed the knowledge.
Mo Kai patted his pocket, realizing he didn’t bring a notebook because he went to the cafeteria for lunch, so he opened the mo app on his phone and started noting down key points.
However, after Nan Zhubin’s teaching, the unsettling feeling among the young mbers of the project team faded a bit.
Though they were imdiately sent away by Chonghui out of safety concerns, it didn’t an they hadn’t suffered harm.
After all, "witnessing others approaching death" itself is one of the triggers for PTSD.
If conditions allowed, Nan Zhubin and Chonghui even considered arranging a group counseling session for all the employees present in the cafeteria today.
Of course, they might not have that condition now.
But since the junior mbers of the project team are their own, naturally, Nan Zhubin and Chonghui should apply so professional knowledge to dispel any potential traumatic experiences they might have.
Xia Tian looked around, perhaps sensing the silent atmosphere, thought for a mont, then suddenly chuckled: "Actually, from a legal perspective, today’s incident, for our project team—instead, it’s a good thing."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the corridor lifted their heads.
