Smeagol often argues with his other personality, Gollum, about his future plans. Many times, however, these two personalities are out- of-touch with each other. He alternates between possessing a benign, pitiable outlook on his past/ future and an alternate murderous perspective regarding his possession of the Ring of Power. 1. Diagnose his disorder and explain its etiology. 2. Interpret Smeagol’s disordered behavior and/or its origin using the following psychological perspectives. Red=possible key words. 1. Humanistic: growth, potential, free will 2. Behavioral: environment, stimulus, response, condition, reinforcement, punishment, model, etc. 3. Psychoanalytic: unconscious, drives, childhood 4. Cognitive: thought process, point-of-view, interpretation 5. Biological: brain, DNA/genetics, neurotransmitters 6. Sociocultural: norms, upbringing, expectations, culture,

Terms or THEIR ROOTS Must AppearEXAMPLES of ExplanationsPt s DiagnosisDissociative identity disorderDevelopment of two or more personalities that are largely unaware of each other 1 Humanistic 2 of the following: free will, potential; growth; unique; self Gollum feels he cannot reach his potential/growth, etc. with one personality alone. He can no longer progress as “Smeagol” after being evicted from his society. So, he develops “Gollum” to progress in his current circumstances. When he meets Frodo, he exercises his free will to renew his potential to progress beyond the dismal character, Gollum, in an environment of acceptance and loyalty, so “Smeagol” remerges. 2 BehavioralEnvironment, conditionGollum has been conditioned through his punitive environment to have two personalities. His society punishes “Smeagol,” so he develops “Gollum,” a resilient and antisocial being who is reinforced by the Ring of Power with a sense of importance. A lot of conditioning examples possible. Pick one. 2 Psychoana ytic unconsciousThe identity and childhood being, Smeagol, is repressed in Gollum’s unconscious until he meets Frodo. At this point, Smeagol is reborn into consciousness and challenges Gollum’s control over Smeagol’s behaviors. Repressing Gollum’s identity ultimately fails as traumatic events continue to befall Smeagol. 2 Cognitive You must refer to thought processes in some way! Here are some options: catastrophic view, unrealistic view, cognitive restructuring Gollum interprets his not having the Ring as catastrophic. He begins to restructure his thought processes when Frodo offers him companionship and meaning in life. Perhaps, he thinks, the Ring is not so important after all. He temporarily abandons his quest for the Ring and perceives friendship with Frodo as more important. 2 BiologicalBrain OR genetics/DNAGollum was predisposed because of his genetics to dissociate under very traumatic and stressful circumstances (i.e. exile, meeting Frodo, trauma with Boromir). 2 Sociocultur al Culture OR society OR Ingroup/OutgroupGollum belonged to a simple, idealistic culture, so when he committed the hideous crime of murder, he was cast out of his society. No longer being a part of the ingroup caused him stress, so he developed an alternate persona to cope. 2
