Psychological Patterns of Human
Behavior.
The universe consists of enormous numbers of different species out of
which many are yet to be discovered, but the most dominating and
common species in terms of making a difference to the existing universe are
the human species.
As the evolution of humans started from the apes to the present human
beings, there has been a devastating changes, that can be seen in the
human mentality and there thinking which has been changing the whole
universe through the view we see.
Every human define themselves through their own mentality which they
develop with respect to their habitats, but instead of having different
habitats and having entirely different behavior they tend to have a common
pattern of certain elements which resembles the basic characteristic of all
human being.
Mentioning the term behavior and briefing upon it, any kind of person
never cultivates a specific or any kind of behavior on it's own as it is found
very rare, mostly a person is meant to cultivate it's behavior from the
surrounding in which he is nourished. For example parents and friends as a
surrounding to a teenager, where they influence the teenager's life and
actions and so on alters his/her behavior.
Similarly on a large scale, in case of a society or a huge settlement of a
group of families, there are quite few people having their behavior based
upon the way his/her surrounding is. In short the cultivation of any
behavior, there is a foundation or a common pattern that can be seen as
the foundation of the person's character, lifestyle or also the mentality.
A common term that can be given is that it's about the crowd effect. In
today's world every other person tend to follow a certain crowd for a
personal interest or an aim to be achieved.
Specifying elements that a human has in it and define most of there
behavior are,
Decision making
Facial expressions
Presence and reaction in certain atmosphere
Conversation on the basis of the specific surrounding
Based upon these specific elements a person can be classified in terms of
psychology.
Decision making,
When it comes to decision making every single person have their own way
of making up a decision with respect to their mental stability.
But there are several specific patterns under which every certain sets of
people tend to have a pattern of problem solving or decision making.
When there is a tough or a grief situation in which a person is tend to go
mentally unstable in form of depression, stress or emotionally hurt, then it
turns out to be, that the particular sets of person in this situation take up
certain decisions which are meant to make them feel better. Specifying that
the person generally realizes their weakness and mistakes. The surrounding
plays a vital role in altering a person’s way of making decision.
There are many kinds of people around us but they all have certain basic
nature, no matter how different they are in their life, all the people can be
mostly classified into 2 categories as a serious and a cool minded person.
The person who seem to be very cool and careless are the one who are very
good at decision making. These kind of person appear to be cool to their
surrounding externally but internally they are very sophisticated, specific
and also mature about the aims to be achieved in their life. Their decisions
seems to be immature to their surrounding but in turn it is suppose to be
the serious and then to these types of person, who know the reality and
make them see the things, what the person wants to show them.
At the same time there are quite a few sets of people who act as they are
fun loving and cool but they are the one who have their life style depending
upon the surrounding they are leaving in.
Their decision can be observed as they seem to be confused, at the same
time in a situation in which they face an unexpected result.
The person who seem to be very serious are the one, who are meant to be
serious not because the person had a rough night everyday or a rough past.
Mostly the reason to be like this is that they are the one who know the true
value of things around them. These kind of persons make their decision in a
calm way, mostly they have all the things sorted out and just they have to
do is, place them in order and it's done.
Their every decision is made upon a practical experience they have in their
life, for example a hardworking racer knows how important his every
decision is as his every small mistakes will pull him down the hill and also he
had paid the price of doing such mistakes in his past which is practical
experience as a reference for not doing the mistake again.
Facial expressions.
The face, the most important part of our human body that expresses all our
feeling, thinking and every sense that we have or feel. Just by seeing
someone's face some people are able to say about them specifically.
The expression that we have on our face is a different kind of language and
people among our surrounding understand them well and react to it. One
need to understand the person emotionally and sensitively to read and
understand one's facial expressions. The most broken person to the most
happiest person on the land can be understood for being the way they are
through their faces and their expressions.
More often the nature of person and the phase through which he/she is
going can be understood clearly, the reason behind this is, that when we
are happy, we completely get into ourselves and feel every moment and get
disconnected from the reality for a while and so is with our senses which
effects our facial expressions.
If the person is too happy then it is seen through his/her face. Eyes of the
person gets loose with the eyebrows, the forehead seems to be plain with
no stress marks or lines appearing on it and the mouth especially gives a
smile or sometimes neither any.
Ever noticed the difference between an actor and a normal person's acting.
A professional actors facial expressions are not like others, like for example
when they act to be happy, they don't only give a fake smile but they also
give away fake eye expressions and other facial expressions together which
in turn gives a complete fake facial expression.
At the same time an unprofessional actor doesn't get the whole fake
expression in a right way, if the person tends to be happy, his/her eyes and
their expressions might not go with the intention that he/she has to prove.
As said again about the types of person,the cool and the serious person.
We can classify the pattern among these two kind of people.
A cool person has always a smiling or a relief face, but as simile is not the
only thing on the face as there are others things too like eyes, forehead and
eyebrows to pay attention on to understand the situation in which he/she is
there and going through it.
Suppose a very lenient person who seems to be careless is the one who is
transparent and most of the time the person can't hide his/her inner
emotional feelings and which is easily seen on his/her facial expression and
then every parts on the face like eyebrows,lips, forehead gives out different
expressions which doesn't go in the same manner and therefore one can
understand the person's situation.
Sometimes some person who are mostly or sometimes silent and in deep
thoughts are suppose to think things which are with respect to the current
situation in which he/she is there,based on which they get thoughts and
make themselves think over it for a quite a long time until some
disturbance felt.
The thoughts can be as follows,
Memories of the past and trying to sort out the negatives and positives
among them.
Trying to figure out the possibilities of things they could have done which
they did not do in the past.
Feeling to happy and things to be done.
There are many more points that can be said but as said before also it
depends upon the facial expressions, and one has to observe it before
reading out the thoughts.
The person who is serious in nature has an unique facial expression.When
observed precisely the eyebrows always changes with respect to the lips.
It's more easy to pretend one's thoughts and emotional nature as the
person is always in a serious way due to certain emotional memories or
backgrounds and which may be both negative and positive which in turn
reflect in their nature and also make the person realize the moral values of
certain things.
Mostly people serious in nature are tend to be like that not because they
were born this way but because of the surrounding, the society, the
knowledge they have been gaining makes them serious.
Being serious is not a genetics order, but it is about one's experience being
in such situations that destabilizes a person mentally and gives them a
reason behind their every work and aim in their life they decide.
Seriousness is a kind of nature where a person knows the moral value of
certain things. It's more about being wise and dedicated and power of will.
A person of this nature has a clear idea about the future and in for that the
person tends to be calm and quite.
Presence and reaction in certain atmosphere.
As most of the people in this world tend to change themselves in terms of
their behavior and speaking with the people in their surrounding and act
unusual.
Depending upon an atmosphere, a person can be defined and also be said
about which type of the person he/she is due to the change in his mentality
which results in his/her speech and body acts.
Specifying the term atmosphere, it changes with respect to all human
beings in this world and yet only few of them tend to face same kind of
atmosphere. For example a bright sunny day but a student having exam
next day and another student having day off at school, tend to have
different kind and types of atmosphere based upon their mentality and life
schedules.
Nature of the person are mainly, never or mostly are not constant with
respect to their feelings and due to which it tends to change with the
atmosphere.
As said previously, atmosphere changes with respect to every human being
in the world.
The human mind reacts with respect to the current atmosphere in which
he/she is present, basically to be more specific, the mind sets the
atmosphere with respect to the incidents that occurred in the past of that
particular person who is present in a particular atmosphere at present.
Atmosphere of a person is defined by the past of the person.
A person going to his/her school after a decade feels nostalgia and tends to
have an affection with the time and surrounding.
On the other hand the person going school for the first time has a different
scenario, filled with curiosity.
The surrounding plays a vital role in deciding the person's act and his/her
behavior, as most of the person tend to make an artificial expression
without any concern of his/her own feelings which is suitable in the present
scenario, but some of them are bold enough to express their feeling and
concerns in any surrounding with a bold act.Which explains that the person
is neither much concerned about the atmosphere in which he/she is
present in the current situation, or the circumstances has been bending the
character and mind to implement such actions.
Types of surrounding and the person's behavior.
Tension stressed atmosphere.
An atmosphere, in which a person is under high stress tend to come out
with emotions and feelings such that it leads to a spontaneous action and
not realizing the consequences of the actions by the person.
Depending upon some other chances of having the atmosphere in terms of
a competition then some people turn out to be motivated and accelerated
in an unguided way, with no knowledge of right and wrong things and sense
of decision making.
A cool person tends to be the least bothered or a lenient person.The basic
behavior of a person can be observed as his/her actions are suppose to be
mostly normal to all types of situation.
The matter that can be observed in the person's behavior is that he/she has
quite a bit of knowledge of the consequences that can occur with respect to
their actions to their surrounding and mostly they tend to absorb the
consequences and learn themselves about the merits and demerits.
These type of people when observed are quite and not reactive for a period
of time and then the tolerance of the person is observed to be lost and it
tends to allow the person, to bring out all the emotions and the feeling
even though the person has the tendency to have the knowledge about the
situation in which he/she is present.
Mostly the reason behind this act of a cool minded person is quite usual in
most of the situation, as every person has a tolerance limit or a certain
resistivity in them. At one point on some issues the limit is been crossed
due to continuous argument or a serious discussion.
In terms of resistivity, every other cool minded person tends to have certain
limit of tolerance for every issue in his/her life which is quite higher than
the people who are short tempered. And if certain or specific issue takes
more time to be solved, then the person tends to become short tempered
and quite aggressive for a quite period of time. But it leaves a certain
impact on the person’s mentality and often observed that the person
destabilize at any situation and react unusual.
Conversation on the basis of a specific surrounding.
Conversation on the basis of a specific surrounding or, to be more specific
being a hypocrite and also being a diplomatic.
Many of us have seen a common scenario in today’s generation in the
politics that, those who seek our vote speak as they are in our favor and
when they are succeeded in their winning agenda all the words just remains
in the air and none of the words ever come into the picture again.
People around us speak with respect to the situation they are in, and not
what they really mean.
As political leader tend to be an angel during election times and then turn
out to be a devil after winning the election. Sets a best example that how
people speak and how their words they use as a medium of gaining
prosperity and success in his/her life.
Imagine a situation where you are captured by some goons and you have
no choice other than putting your hands down, and then you speak out
such words which is meant to save your life according to your sense and not
state any fact.
As being hypocrite is not a good neither a bad thing but it is something that
every person is born with or the surrounding and the society develops it
into a person’s character.
Mostly all the person in todays world never speak their mind out. They
tend to speak what gains them profit and build an image even if the words
doesn’t make or mean any sense in an individuals life.
Most of the students in the class speak as if the student knows everything
or the student answers to all the question of the professor in the class, but
for most of the student the answer doesn’t make any sense at any point but
still the student tend to do and the reason is, to have a better future.
Doesn’t matter what scientific calculation has to do with someone’s
machine and what goes in and what come out. For most of them it’s the
price the student has to pay for what he/she has to achieve in the future.
When there is a birthday party, then most of the person in the party no
matter how much they hate the birthday person they don’t speak a
something irrelevant to the person’s feeling and the reason is, the birthday
of the person.
Even if we have to classify the reaction between the types of person and
the words they use constantly in certain atmosphere, we need to
understand the term of being or living in today’s world of hypocrisy.
No matter what one thinks about a certain subject but most of the person
come up with another set of words which is not relevant for what they
think and when the person turns to some one else..
Suppose a person knows what is going wrong and what is going right, but
mostly, most of the person never say it out, reasons can be infinite. And
when they turn out to his/her own people they speak up as if he/she could
have made some changes but most of them just brag and go silent as the
sea.
The world has come to a stage where no person can leave a life of a hero or
a villain, a single person has a number of multiple identities and to maintain
them, even the god, has to be a hypocrite.

... Under these conditions, knowledge and understanding of the way of thinking, the general spiritual setting of the nation, ethnic groups, that is, everything that is called mentality, acquires special significance. Now knowledge of the nature of the mentality of society, the ability to take it into account in the process of predicting the socio-economic development of society, the ability to neutralize negative aspects in ethno-national relations caused by mental differences are an urgent need and a condition for success in the adaptation efforts of a postmodern society (Reddy, 2016). There is an urgent need for theoretical generalizations of the problem under study. ...

The concept of mentality in the context of today's post-pandemic society, its role in the development of historical and socio-postmodern scientific thought are analyzed. Its correlation with other categories has been determined, revealing phenomena that are close in meaning. Revealed the significance of the category of mentality for the study of the development of society.Mentality as a system is a categorical characteristic of a nation, and hence of a society, the core of which is a given nation. The study of mentality allows us to understand the internal relationships in society identify the internal reasons for the development of society and do praxeological research. The analysis of mentality within the framework of social philosophy cannot be limited to a certain time period (era), this category characterizes the nation and society at the present stage, accumulating in itself all the historical influences and changes projected at the present.The article examines the phenomenon of mentality as a system of internal deep-psychological socio-cultural attitudes of the individual. The article considers and substantiates a mental approach to understanding the phenomena of socially individual life. The philosophical and educational aspects of the formation of personality mentality and the main "problematic sides" of modern education through the prism of the mental approach are actualized.
... У певних життєвих ситуаціях люди удаються до відомих із минулого досвіду стандартів чи шаблонів поведінки, які психологи називають «патернами». Як справедливо підкреслює K. Reddy, «кожна людина визначає себе через свій власний менталітет, який вона розвиває стосовно свого середовища існування, але замість того, щоб у різних середовищах існування мати зовсім іншу поведінку, вона, як правило, має загальний шаблон певних елементів, що нагадує основну характеристику всієї людської істоти» [8]. Однак кожна людина культивує свою поведінку з того оточення, в якому вона живе, наприклад, батьки та друзі, однолітки, медіаагенти тощо. ...
