Title: The Social MirrorPurpose:  To identify how others perceptions and views have affected and shaped our personalities, identities and self-image.Resources: This essay is a reflection exercise.Activity Instructions:After reading the first chapter of the textbook, complete this activity. To recognize the potential inaccuracy or incompetence of the "social mirror," or others' opinions of you as a person, take a moment to reflect on how the social mirror has affected you. Reflect back on all aspects of your life: personal (dealing with family and friends, roommates, neighbors, significant others), academic (teachers, coaches, classmates), and professional (bosses, co-workers, subordinates, mentors) to examine what influence others have had on your self-image and other areas of importance to you (community, religion, sports, etc.).Answer the questions in the template in comprehensive, complete sentences. Do not provide brief answers. Instead, compose  at least 4-5 full sentences (i.e., a full paragraph) that answer each of the posed thought-provoking discussions.Please remember that your task is to not only write your own assessment, but to show that you are able to draw connections between your readings and your reflection. Use concepts and theories from the appropriate chapters, explain your understanding of their application, and show how they help you understand yourself. Remember to cite properly in-text (Author, YEAR) and at the end of your reflection with a fully formatted APA reference.
