How We Form First Impression
1. We all have first impression of someone we just met. But why? Why do we form an opinionabout someone without really knowing anything about him or her -- aside perhaps from a fewremarks or readily observable traits.
2. The answer is related to how your brain allows you to be aware of the world. Your brain isso sensitive in picking up facial traits, even very minor difference in how a person's eyes,ears, nose, or mouth are placed in relation to each other makes you see him or her asdifferent. In fact, your brain continuously process incoming sensory information -- thesights and sounds of your world. These incoming "signals" are compared against a host of"memories" stored in the brain areas called the cortex system to determine what these newsignals "mean".
3. If you see someone you know and like at school, your brain says "familiar and safe. " If yousee someone new, it says, "new-potentially, threatening". Then your brain starts to matchfeatures of this stranger with other " known" memories. The height, weight, dress, ethnicity, gestures, and tone of voice are all matched up. The more unfamiliar thecharacteristics, the more your brain may say, "his is new. I don't like this person". Orelse, "I'm intrigued". Or your brain may perceive a new face but familiar clothes,ethnicity, gestures-like your other friends; so your brain says: "I like this person". Butthese preliminary "impressions" can be dead wrong.
4. When we stereotype people, we use a less mature form of thinking ( not unlike the immaturethinking of a very young child) that makes simplistic and categorical impressions of others.Rather than learn about the depth and breadth of people -- their history, interest, values,strengths, and true character -- we categorize them as jocks, geeks, or freaks.
5. However, if we resist initial stereotypical impressions, we have a chance to be aware ofwhat a person is truly like. If we spend time with a person, hear about his or her life,hopes, dreams, and become aware of the person's character, we use a different, moremature style of thinking -- and the most complex areas of our cortex, which allow us to behumane.
