Anhul has been having trouble at school lately. He cannot seem to get his work in on time and try as he might, he cannot fit in
at school. His family only adds to the pressure. He recently moved to Ohio from Pakistan and his family expects him to participate in cultural and family functions. The pressure is getting to him, but he is trying to get everything to fall into place. Explain how each of the following views of psychology would seek to explain Anhul's behavior: sociocultural, psychodynamic, behavioral, humanistic, and trait.
The sociocultural perspective would focus on the fact that he has found himself in a new environment which has diferent social and cultural traditions compared to his own environment. The psycodynamic perspective would focus on his early childhood traumas and defensive mechanisms. The behavioral perspective would talk about ways how he could change his behavior for it to be more desirable to his parents. The humanistic perspective would talk about him as a complete human being and how he should value himself. Traits psychology would talk about his traits which have gotten him to his point and his current situation.
