We have learned so much through the semester, when asked what I would I remember five years from now so many things came to mind. I thought about conditioning, development, personalities, and much more. When I really thought about all I have learned and how it will change my thinking from here on out, I thought of the six scientific thinking principles and everything they can apply to. Learning about those, remind me to really think about information you are receiving and analyze it like a scientist, instead of taking everything you hear as gospel. Although we have learned so much, these six principles really relate to everything. Basically, the most important thing is to really think for yourself and investigate further before believing everything you hear. It's not that we shouldn't trust anyone we meet, but healthy skepticism is great way to find out the truth and not be fooled with nonsense. I will take that message with me most of all, however I will try to remember all the other psychological knowledge I have acquired throughout the semester.
I agree with what you said. Although the six scientific thinking principles might not be the most important, you can relate them to everything. You probably noticed that each chapter within our textbook incorporated those six principles in some way. Our exams and practice tests also included them. This demonstrates how important they really are, and I will hopefully be able to consider them when making real-life decisions.
