outlook and low levels of trust and tolerance
Self-expression values – priority to environmental protection, growing

SUMMARY IGC | BY Rosa Craane

, Idol of the marketplace – We believe our reason govern words (we often use words
we don’t understand, e.g., peace)
Idol of the theater - Current fads or “systems now in vogue” also influence how we
see the world (my experience is better than facts)

Cognitive biases - Mental shortcuts used by human brains to simplify information.
Unacceptability bias - A systematic difference in response rates or uptake of tests
due to their “unacceptability”
Confirmation bias - Confirmation bias occurs when an individual looks for and uses
the information to support their own ideas or beliefs. It also means that information
not supporting their ideas or beliefs is disregarded.
Rationality - the quality of being based on clear thought and reason, or of making decisions
based on clear thought and reason.
Cognitive dissonance - The mental conflict that occurs when beliefs or assumptions are
contradicted by new information.
Social storytelling - Form of storytelling with a function of education to help develop a
feeling of belonging to a society. It includes traditions, fairytales, legends, and myths.
Traditions - stories, beliefs and behaviors that have been part of the culture of an
organized group of people for a long time.
Fairytale - Wonder tale involving marvelous elements and occurrences, though not
necessarily about fairies. The term embraces such popular folktales (Märchen) as
“Cinderella” and “Puss-in-Boots” and art fairy tales (Kunstmärchen) of later
invention, such as The Happy Prince (1888), by the Irish writer Oscar Wilde.
Legend - Traditional story or group of stories told about a particular person or place.
Formerly the term legend meant a tale about a saint. Legends resemble folktales in
content; they may include supernatural beings, elements of mythology, or
explanations of natural phenomena, but they are associated with a particular locality
or person and are told as a matter of history (e.g., Messi or ander hassens)
Myth - A symbolic narrative, usually of unknown origin and at least partly traditional,
that ostensibly relates actual events and that is especially associated with religious
belief. Myths are specific accounts of gods or superhuman beings involved in
extraordinary events or circumstances in a time that is unspecified, but which is
understood as existing apart from ordinary human experience.
Joseph Campbell - the hero with a thousand faces
Monomyth - All mythic narratives as variations of a single great story
4 Function of the myth
1. Metaphysical function - Awakens a sense of awe and wonder before the mystery
of being.
2. Cosmological function - Explains how the universe works.
3. Sociological function - Gives a sense of belonging, validates, and supports the
existing social order.
4. Pedagogical function - Guides the individual through the stages of life, connects
us with people of the past who encountered similar problems or situations.
Modern mythologies
Icons – a person or thing widely admired especially for having great influence or
significance in a particular sphere (e.g., Kim K, Harry Potter)
Hero - a person who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities.
