It is my opinion that people who grow up in confinded environment may need to rebel. People who lack social skills or were not taught any have a difficult time socializing with society. Another common factor is that people may crave attention or in most cases have not experieicned love. They may also of been abbused verbally or physically. People choose to be different in many ways and i respect that however you dont have to flaunt it because it just screams "look at me - nobody loves me" which is said. They need the attention and dont know how else to get. They may also lack empathy which or completley shut down emotions. They have a hard time relating to other people because they are so busy being different.
Major behavioral science disciplines that contribute to OB?
Psychology
Psychology is the science that seeks to measure, explain, and sometimes change the behavior of humans and other animals. Psychologists concern themselves with studying and attempting to understand individual behavior. Those who have contributed and continue to add to the knowledge of OB are learning theorists, personality theorists, counseling psychologists, and, most important, industrial and organizational psychologists.
Early, industrial/organizational psychologists concerned themselves with the problems of fatigue, boredom, and other factors relevant to working conditions that could impede efficient work performance. More recently, their contributions have been expanded to include learning, perception, personality, emotions, training, leadership effectiveness, needs and motivational forces, job satisfaction, decision-making processes, performance appraisals, attitude measurement, employee selection techniques, work design, and job stress.
Sociology
While psychology focuses on the individual, sociology studies people in relation to their fellow human beings. Specifically, sociologists have made their greatest contribution to OB through their study of group behavior in organizations, particularly formal and complex organizations. Some of the areas within OB that have received valuable input from sociologists are group dynamics, design of work teams, organizational culture, formal organization theory and structure, organizational technology, communications, power, and conflict.
Social Psychology
Social psychology blends concepts from both psychology and sociology. It focuses on the influence of the people on one another. One of the major areas under considerable investigation by social psychologists has been change-- how to implement it and how to reduce barriers to its acceptance. In addition, we find social psychologists making significant contributions in the areas of measuring , understanding, and changing attitudes; communication patterns; building trust; the way in which group activities can satisfy individual needs; and group decision-making process.
Anthropology
Anthropology is the study of societies to learn about human beings and their activities. For instance, anthropologists' work on cultures and environments has helped us understand differences in fundamental values, attitudes, and behavior between people in different countries and within different organizations. Much of our current understanding of organizational culture, organizational environments, and differences between national cultures is the result of the work of anthropologists or those using their methods.
Political Science
Although frequently overlooked, the contributions of political scientists are significantly to the understanding of behavior in organizations. Political science studies the behavior of individuals and groups within a political environment. Specific topics of concern here include the structuring of conflict, allocation of power, and how people manipulate power for individual self-interest.
What do you call a person who is obsessed with cuttinq themselves?
One answer to this question could be a person with a complex post-traumatic stress disorder, formerly known as Borderline Personality. Cutting themselves, usually in a non-life-threatening way, relieves tension and helps them feel emotion.
Recent thoughts are that the disorder stems from a dysfunction in attachment. Emotions are often one extreme to the other and treatments can include Dialectical Behaviour Therapy or Emotional Regulation therapy. Medication can help specific symptoms such as if the person is also depressed.
Do you think according to you being humble is good or bad?
According to me, humility like all things is best in moderation. Humility is a good thing if it's not excessive; too much humility is false behavior due to our natural egos. Too little humility can lead to egotism, also best in moderation.
So, according to me too humble is bad; not humble enough is bad; being moderately humble is good.
Why are there gays and lesbians and others with unconventional sexual orientations and expressions?
Sexual orientation and gender identity are complex and influenced by a combination of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Just like there is diversity in every aspect of human experience, there is also diversity in sexual orientation and gender identity. It is simply a natural part of human variation.
Because of sin.
_____________
From a Religion & Spirituality point of view, sin may be an adequate answer, but adhering to that answer will inevitably lead to strong sectarianism and to religious wars, which of course will be caused by righteousness and not by sin, not much of a step up. The results will be the same if not worse.
A more useful answer may be that humans engage in war because conflict and combat are part of human nature. There will be conflicts over borders, the distribution of scarse resources, cultural differences-- religion among the more important ones, struggles over international hegemony and lusting after power, exploitation of poorer or less developed countries that have a wealth of natural resources that are globally valuable, and there are probably many others. As long as there are humans that have not been blasted away by other humans, there will be conflict, and it will occasionally rise to the level of combat/war. Among the things that will help minimize such combat will be a strong sense of international interdependence espoused by groups like the United Nations.

How do you deal with compulsive liar?
Find yourself a good psychologist and if you are a student and short on money seek out help through your Mental Health Clinic and they will provide you with a psychologist. Usually people that compulsively lie do so because they don't feel their lives is exciting enough, they aren't wordly or they feel inferior. You must have reasons for feeling this way so please seek out some help and being young is a good thing to have on your side. You can get over this! Good luck Marcy Therapudic help is a good resource but it could also lead you down some dead ends. An alternative way to solve this problem is to simply confront it. Confide in yourself, then to a loved one. A middle man is not always the wisest decision. You dont necessarily have to look outward for help. Solving a large scale issue with your own intelligence proves that you amount to a much pricier value. It is important to generally seek guidance, but as far as expecting and constantly leaning towards something other than yourself, kinda beats around the bush. No one can tell you what's between you and your girlfriend, what's inside your relationship or what makes you. Nobody knows you better than you! So use that as your advantage while your digging yourself out of the hole your're buried in.
How do you tell if someone is fake sleeping?
Firstly, check their breathing. If they are breathing at a normal pace, they are awake. If they are breathing slow and relaxed, then they could be in deep sleep.
Next, look at their eyes. Look closely at their eye muscles and see if they are tense or relaxed; if they are tense, the person is probably fake sleeping, whereas if the muscles are relaxed, then the person is likely to be asleep.
Try tickling them and if they giggle straightaway, then they are faking sleep.
Call on them and say something like "I know you're awake. I can tell if someone is awake or not and you're doing the worst sleeping imitation I've ever seen" or something like that. Usually, theyll give up and laugh and say "you're good" and compliment you so as not to embarrass themselves.

Dominant and submissive personalities?
Recently I have been looking into the world of dominant and submissive personalities and found (surprisingly to me) that most males are submissive in relationships with their partners but in life more dominating (for example at work). Which I see does make sense … anyway I found that you either are laid back in real life then dominate in your relationships, or in real day to day life more dominating and then submissive in relationships. My question is that can you be laid back in day to day life but be both in a relationship (like reversing the roles often)?
