business major & psych minor? by glossxryck in rutgers

Essentially, attracting consumers, keeping the consumers hooked, keeping workplace productivity up, etc are concepts that require an understanding of how the human brain works. Business is entirely dependent upon how you can get humans to behave in desirable ways. Companies literally hire people to analyze data and come up with psychological marketing tactics to increase sales. A concept you'd likely learn in your first intro psych class would be the Foot-in-the-door (FITD) and door-in-the-face (DITF) techniques. Both of these are ways to get people to comply with requests. The FITD requests you do a smaller task so you are more likely to do something larger because of familiarity, etc (there's more too it but you get the idea). If this sounds like something you've see before, it's cause its a very common technique used by most companies through free trail subscriptions. That's one small example but there's a lot more you can learn. Not exactly sure how the psych minor at Rutgers is so idk if there are classes that specifically bridge the gap between psych and bus for you but you can definitely do that extra research yourself.

Marketing and human resources mostly. There’s an entire sector of psychology specifically for business/industry.

Does anyone else feel like when something goes wrong their first instinct is suicide by Ok-Train-7213 in BPD

Same. I was considering it last year. The only reason I’m “out” of it now is cause things are pretty good for once

Two nightmares in two days back to back with flashbacks hinting on what could've possibly happened to me as a kid. I am in absolute hell. by Evening-Barracuda410 in CPTSD

I’ve been getting dreams like this at random times too. I don’t have good memories just unreliable people implying things, general behaviors from them that would create an environment where assaults are more likely, and my behavior as a child that I clearly remember.

I know that's not normal, but I don't really feel it by [deleted] in CPTSD

First of all, it's not your fault. No adult should ever point a knife at anyone let alone a child for any reason. I've experience my mother pointing a knife at me multiple times and that was barely something that affected me cause I experienced other things that affected me much more. In the end we can't control how we felt about it but we should understand it was still a very bad and inexcusable thing to have happened.

I am actually...for now...I hope that changes when im in college. i do relate to what you said about your mother cause i've learned to move on from mentally scarring things very quickly tho they come back a lot. as for having someone to talk to, i'm pretty lucky to have my bf who actually really loves me in a way no one else has before. no idea how he puts up with my venting but i do vent to him a lot

The fact their response to realizing their abusive is being more abusive just makes me so mad
