Terrell Owens

Terrell Owens makes many interesting and weird decisions.

Behavioral
For instance he holds out from going to practice because he believes he will get more attention. This would be considered a Behavior Perspective because from prior experiences he got a lot of attention from espn. So he has learned he will get more publisity if he does not go to training camp (practice.)

Cognitive
Terrel Owens thinks he is the best wide reciever in football so he believes he can do whatever he wants. For example because he scored a touchdown he thinks he can do any celebration he wants and there wont be any conciquences because of who he is. Terrell also sees the world as though it revolves around him, so everything he is doing or not doing is okay with people.

Social Cultural
Now that the NFL is starting to evolve into more people thinking they can do whatever they want, Terrell is thinking more than ever what he is doing is right. He sees other football players holding out or just not showing up for there practices and he thinks its a common thing to do. Terrel also never grew up with a whole lot of money so he has the impulsion to just buy anything he desires now that he has a lot of money.

Psychodynamic
Terrell grew up with parents who let him do whatever he wanted. So now that he is grown up he unconciously does not know where the line is because he never learned that there is one. He thinks being the way he is (being a disruption to the team, thinking about himself, and not respecting anyone) is the right thing to do.

Humanistic
Terrell Owens did not get a lot of love or attention when he was a child, so now he feels like when he acts out of line people notice him and he sees it in a loving way. He does not know how to be loves and that is what just plan old attention is.

Neuoscience
Terrell Owens holds out from going to practice because he gets a rush on seeing how long he can do it for without getting into to much trouble. He gets anxious in this situation because his brain releases endorphins making him happy when he gets in situations like these. He also gets a rush when he sees the football in the air making him become more athletic to catch the ball. The Occipital lobe is responsible for the visual aspect of your brain.
