HELLO,
MEET 
JORDAN
“Welcome to the inside of Jordan’s mind—where psychology comes to life
Memory Mia:“Big psych test coming up, team! Let’s make sure Jordan remembers everything!”
Jordan’s control room in her brain:
Because I paired the sound of barking with getting bitten! Now Jordan feels fear even when the dog is friendly. That’s a conditioned response!!”
Jordan sees a dog and suddenly feels nervous. Why?
Classical conditioning Carl:
Jordan is debating skipping class..
Operant Olivia:
“If Jordan goes, they get praise and a donut. Skip it? Lose participation points. Reinforcement and punishment shape behavior!”
Short term 
Long term
“Let’s rehearse this info to encode it properly. Use retrieval cues when the test comes!”
Studying begins:
Memory Mike:
!!!
Neuro Nick:
“Neurons are firing slower. Low serotonin could be why mood is down. I better wake the frontal lobe!”

I” am tired!”
“It’s just generalized anxiety. No real danger—just overactive worry circuits. Let’s breathe.”
Anxious Adam:
”I feel worried and i don’t know why!”
”I feel worried and i don’t know why!”
“It’s the bystander effect—when others are around, people feel less responsible. Classic social psych!”
Social Sam:
“Jordan sees someone getting bullied and doesn’t step in.”
“The id wants to scream. The superego says to stay polite. Thank goodness the ego mediates!”
Freud Frankie:
Jordan is arguing with a friend:
”Jordan feels unmotivated to study. What’s missing?”
“According to Maslow, Jordan’s stuck at the ‘belonging’ level—feeling disconnected. To reach self-actualization and do their best, we need to meet social and esteem needs first!”
Motivation Molly:
Make this part long or keep it short and to the point.
