INTRODUCTION
Horney believed that we have two views of ourselves. The "real self" and

the "ideal self". The real self is who and what we actually are. Examples would
be parent, child, sister, etc. The real self contains potential for growth, happiness,
will power, realization of gifts, etc. The real self has deficiencies that the neurotic
does not like. The ideal self is the type of person he feels that he should be and
is used as a model to assist him in developing his potential and achieving selfactualization (Engler 125).
1. A good relationship is one where intimacy develops slowly from a friendship
to a commitment.
2. A good relationship is one that is based on a commitment. You feel secure
about the future of the relationship.
3. A good relationship is one where two people do need each other.
4. A good relationship is a partnership that is based on friendship and respect.
5. A good relationship is one where there is a true intimacy of revealing and
sharing yourself with your partner as he/she reveals and shares himself/herself
also.
6. A good relationship is one where two individuals can resolve conflict in a
peaceful and calm manner.
7. A good relationship is one where both individuals see themselves as
partners.
8. A good relationship is one where two people maintain an enthusiasm about
the others hobbies, work, and friends.

9. A good relationship is one where each partner has a circle of friends and
interests outside the relationship.
10. A good relationship is one where there is talk of a future together.
11. A good relationship is one where both parties balance each other in taking
actions to make the relationship work.

the respondents who agreed with the statements and those who did not
agree,marked the false box.
During the answering session,some of the teachers were given a short
explanation on how to fill in the questionnaires.A few needed translation of the
questions into Malay language.However,they managed to complete the survey

REPORT
Based on the bar chart and pie chart, I can conclude that the people in

Group 1 and 2 mostly are in the style of moving towards people. The paradigm
10

and style leads them to move towards other people and situations. They value
relationship, connection, support, building up. Their natural tendency is to affirm,
embrace, and approve. If they over do this tendency, they may become cloying,
co-dependent, and crippling, ironically, the opposite of what their best self
intends. They become overly solicitous and flattering.56% of the people in Group
2 move toward people while only 20% of them move away from people.
The move away from people group, stepping back to allow others to stand
on their own two feet. They also move inward to discover and develop their own
creative sources and affirm their own agenda. They move away from others
because they feel hurt, misunderstood and underappreciated or because they
feel special and priviledged because of all they have done for others.Foe Moving
against people,both Group 1 and 2 have the same percentages which is
24%.They move against others, setting boundaries and limits, expressing their
own needs, and making requests of others. They are clear about who they are
and what they are responsible for and challenge others to accept responsibility
for themselves. They move against others in an aggressive rather than an
assertive manner, imposing their services on others, becoming critical and
domineering. They may fantasize or seek revenge for feeling used and taken
advantage of. Or they might push others away, claiming they dont need them.
The style contains characteristics of moving against are competitive,
proactive, go-getters. They get things done by aggressively working towards their
goals. They tackle problems and overcome obstacles with gusto.Sometimes this
people can get caught up in Type-A behavior where they over-work themselves
and their team, raising the bar of competition along with their blood pressure.

SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES
In a real-life situation,a main reason is due to the prominence of the

affective aspect of the user experience. In particular, feelings of social

11

embarrassment often act as a barrier. For public interaction to become a more

acceptable mode of social activity requires the purpose behind it and how it is
manifested around and at the display to have strong physical and social
affordances, that people can easily and unambiguously pick up on. There also
needs to be a highly visible means of conveying this, which enables the public to
rapidly develop their conceptions of the purpose of the social activity, and to be
able to move seamlessly and comfortably between being an onlooker and a
participant. One means of achieving this is to design ways of encouraging people
to cross the thresholds from peripheral awareness to focal awareness, to
participation and back again, without becoming selfconscious I agree that
relationships are absolutely key to making life worthwhile. Dont give up and
separate happiness from friends. Although you shouldnt be dependent on
others, theres nothing wrong with the feelings of comfort, happiness, belonging,
and a sense of place that come with your own friendship circle.
I would also say that happiness with others will come as a result of
happiness with yourself. No one likes a person thats critical, sarcastic, negative,
or complains all day. Be happy with yourself and others will see the radiance
within you and gravitate to it. Isnt it fun meeting new people when you can just
see them beaming with joy from a mile away? Its great being around them,
too.Stick with it, look for opportunities to meet others on a personal level, and
relationships will come naturally.The form of interaction needs to be very
lightweight and visible from the offset; it should be easy to do and importantly,
not embarrassing to recover from mistakes that are made. Participants need to
be able to learn how to interact with the system vicariously, rather than be told or
have to follow a set of instructions. They need to be able to simply walk up and
use it, having watched others do the same. The interface needs to be clear to the
person such that they are reassured that their interaction with it will be a low
commitment activity, that will be quick to do and enjoyable. When a person
suffers from intense shyness or social anxiety, being around other people can
trigger very intense feelings of anxiety and panic. For a shy person, being in a

12

social situation can cause unpleasant physical sensations such as sweating,

trembling, and hyperventilating. These uncomfortable physical sensations may
also be accompanied by intensely negative self criticism and feelings of acute
shame and embarrassment.
For some shy people, avoiding others may seem to be the best solution
they can think of. As soon as they rush away from a social situation they feel an
intense inner sense of relief. No longer do they need to worry as much about
feeling embarassed by their social awkwardness. No longer do they need to
worry that everything they say sounds stupid, and they feel less worried about
what others are thinking about them. Ironically, many people who are very rude
or abrupt with others, who dont get involved in conversations, or who walk away
quickly from social encounters, are perceived by others to be stuck up or
conceited. The truth is that these people feel terribly uncomfortable in social
situations. By avoiding interacting with others, they try to hide their shyness and
social discomfort.
Although avoiding others is a very common technique used by many shy
people, this social avoidance will actually make their problem worse. Not only is
their fear of being around other people likely to grow if they keep avoiding others,
but people who are shy will feel even more lonely and less confident the longer
they avoid social interactions. So, a shy person who may already be very lonely
will become even lonelier. He will lose out on opportunities to make new friends
and to learn constructive ways of improving his social skills.Therapists who
specialize

in

treating

shyness

often

recommend

the

exact

opposite

approach. Instead of allowing the shy person to continue to run away from social
situations, the therapist will encourage the shy person to gradually have more
exposure to the type of social situations they fear most, and to participate more
fully and more frequently in social interactions.
So if you have been hiding from others because you want to avoid your
feelings of shyness, keep in mind that you have a better chance of overcoming

13

your shyness and making more friends if you dont run from social situations.
Instead, make an effort to stay at social events longer, talk to more people more
often, for a longer period of time, and give yourself a lot of credit for every social
interaction you have.
