3. This photo was taken at Penang during Chinese New Year and the time was 7.09pm.
Based on my observation through the captured photograph, there are a few of social
behaviors that can relate to the concept learnt. The first social behavior observed is the pink
shirt women who is posing for picture.(1) It is refer as schema because from the past
experiences will give us knowledge that posing will make the photo looks nicer.
The second social behavior observed is the Caucasian girl is picking her nose.(2) This is
refer as the automatic processing as unintentionally or involuntary she will pick her nose
due to itchiness of nose or some other reasons.
The third social behavior observed is the woman with medium hair length woman is
lengthen her neck up to see clearly what is happening in front of her probably
performances happening because of her curiosity.(3) This can be refer as representative
heuristic because based on her facial expression, we can know there is curiosity inside her
to know what is happening in front of her.
