Interview #1: Jacqueline Age: 22 Hometown: San Jose Occupation: UC Berkeley Student Observations: (1) The interviewee goes out weekly to events and outings with friends during the weekends to destress (2) She finds it difficult to meet new friends after having came here for her last two years of college (3) She has a tendency to check her phone, play with her hair, and bite her nails during anxious periods Insights: (1) Social does not necessary equate to shyness, as this person is extremely extroverted but enjoys spending time out (2) Meeting new people outside of her current friends is difficult to accomplish (3) Habits form concern for people as they use it as a way to soothe tension but ultimately exacerbate their nervous feelings Questions: How might we foster a better environment to explore new groups & make the threshold for acquaintances lower? How might Interview #2: Sam Age: 22 Hometown: San Diego Occupation: UC Davis Graduate Observations: (1) The interviewee does not consider himself shy but falls into shy habits more recently having moved to the bay without his college group of friendships (2) He doesn't go out very often, taking the time to spend in on most weekends (3) He seeks out helping people when he feels that they are shy, to help them feel better in social situations Insights: (1) Shyness comes in different forms & is often the case that it is the by product of having developed a new environment or circumstance (2) Some seeming extroverts spend a lot of time in as well (3) Some individuals seek to help others feel better in social situations & ease that shyness Questions: How might we make shyness more approachable problem for non-shy people to help facilitate? How might we bridge the gap between extroversion & shyness? Questions: How might we foster a better environment to explore new groups & make the threshold for aquaintances lower? |
