What is a setting?

Set theory refers to the psychological theory put forward by Uznaj, a Soviet psychologist, on the basis of repeated research on various sensory experiments in the 1930s. Originated from the stereotype concept put forward by German psychologists Miao Lei and Schumann in 1889. It is believed that stereotype is a special phenomenon in psychology, which reflects the unique positive state of psychological activities in the unconscious state and should be the basic concept of psychology.

As the preparation state of individual activities, it reflects the influence of the previous activity on the latter activity, which may be beneficial to the completion of the activity or not. Uznadje found that stereotypes can be formed under hypnosis and spread to other activities.

It is not a local psychological state, but a complete psychological state or personality model, which is the internal condition of psychological activities formed under the interaction of needs and objective situations. Any activity is based on a set, and the same set can be expressed in different activities.

It is considered to be a new theory related to unconsciousness, which has certain theoretical significance for revealing the essence of unconsciousness. Stereotype has been widely studied in the fields of attention, perception, problem solving and exercise, but the essence of stereotype is still inconclusive.

Extended data:

Psychological stereotype refers to psychological "directional tendency", which is a state of preparation formed by certain psychological activities, and plays a positive or negative role in promoting psychological activities and behavioral activities such as perception, memory, thinking and emotion in the future.

Thinking set, also known as "inertial thinking", is a special mental preparation state or activity tendency caused by previous activities. Under the constant environment, the fixed situation enables people to solve problems quickly by using the methods they have mastered. When the situation changes, it will prevent people from adopting new methods. Negative mentality is a shackle that binds creative thinking.
