SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY
REACTION PAPER (EDUKCIRCLE)

Being a Psychology student seminars are very important to us not only to learn
something new but to have a certificate that may help us in finding job in the
future.And last September 17,2016 , the Edukcircle conducted a seminar at AFP
Theater, Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City about Psychology and Cyber world: The
Different Effects of the Internet to Human Behavior.
I learned a lot with the seminar, the presentation about Psychology and Cyber
world: The Different Effects of the Internet to Human Behavior is appropriate with
the psychology student like us. The discussion and the explanation are very well
set; we truly understand what we are going to do. What I have learned is that,
there is an addiction that may occur by accessing the internet/Facebook.
Every individual should be more aware on what their posting through social
media and how they react on what they have seen in Facebook of different social
websites. Theres different side effect that may we experience because of social
media like Cyber stalking where we occupy our free time means of stalking
someone. It may also lead to cyber bullying because of stalking someones
profile, we might found some dirty little secret about that person that may lead us
to give a side comment or bad comment to that certain person.
The aim of this seminar is to improve the way we perceived on things. And how
we can be more sensitive on what we post. Think before we post. It may damage
other people but also ourselves.

Paper Presentation
The paper presentation was presented by the
students in different universities.
One of my favorite topic is:
The Dynamics of Cyber stalking
which is presented by the students
From Tarlac State University.
Their topic was very interesting because most
of the users of facebook stalk someones account, especially the youths who keep on
stalking their crushes or friends.

The last guest speaker:
Dr. Randy Dellarosa
Psychiatrist,
Psychologist,
Life Coach
His topic is about
Facebook Addiction.
Before he starts his topic
he gave us an info
about his job.
He also admits that
he is also had facebook
Addiction.

He discussed the:
Definition of FB Addiction

 Hallmark traits of
Addiction, Some symptoms of FB Addiction
What get us hooked on FB, The Good and Bad of FB
For me, he has the best strategy when it comes on discussing. From the way he
shares his thoughts and feeling about FB, and how he found out that he has FB
addiction. Plus, the pictures on the PowerPoint that he showed to us made our
sleepy eyes awake. He really knows how to talk to other people and how he can
get their attention.
