Lesson 3: The Self, Society, and Culture

EVALUATION
Directions: Answer the following questions cogently and honestly. Write your answers in
the pace provided.
1. How would you describe yourself?
I was such a childish kind of girl and a generous one who loves sharing things that I have. Also
I am capable of doing something, if I stepped out on my comport zone I think I can do things I
cannot do right now. I am also an athletic type of person.

2. What are the influences of family in your development as an individual?

My family helps me to develop as an individual by raising me as a good person and they raise
me also to be a good citizen

3. Think of a times when you felt you were your ‘true self’. What made you think you were truly
who you are during this time of your life?
I am true to myself when I am saying the truth, by expressing my emotions and defend myself
when I am right.

4. Following the above, can you provide a time when you felt you were not living your ‘true
self’? Why did you have to live a life like that? What did you do about it?
I felt that I am not living my true self when I am not saying truth and when I am being left
behind by others. I do this because I don’t want to hurt their feelings. So I need to say white
lies and pretend that I’m okay

5. What social pressure helps shape you? Would you have wanted it otherwise?

It was not social pressure that shaped me; in fact, I am impacted on me to excel at my own, be
a better person due to my experiences in life and I am who I am.
