 Everyone at some point in time seeks love, respect, and attention. This is a very humanistic type of behavior. This level of humanism may be considered one of the six major theoretical perspectives in psychology. An example of this particular theory can be applied to the behavior of Michael in the video “Michael and Catherine”. In this video Michael performed for the non-existent audience using his clarinet. He puts on an act to gain attention and increase his self worth. Michael strives to get noticed by others and show off any potential talent he has. It is human nature to want to strive for their best and then flaunt their achievements to raise their self esteem. This is just what Michael happens to be doing. Whether or not he can play the instrument of his choice is unclear. Either way he makes sure to keep his movements fluent to an extent that it makes it look like he can actually play the clarinet. Michael is not the first to strive for a heightened self image and he surely won’t be the last. It is, after all, human nature.
