Etymology[edit]

"Anthropos sometimes is explained as a compound of aner and ops (genitive opos) "eye, face;" so literally "he who has the face of a man." The change of -d- to -th- is difficult to explain; perhaps it is from some lost dialectal variant, or the mistaken belief that there was an aspiration sign over the vowel in the second element (as though *-dhropo-), which mistake might have come about by influence of common verbs such as horao "to see." from [[1]] suggests a possibility, but I don't have any published sources. The current page says Anthropos comes from mycenean greek and means or could be interpreted as "low eyed". I havent found a source that supports this yet. 68.58.218.88 (talk) 19:00, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A very weak article[edit]

A largely unsourced, non-erudite hodgepodge. 71.239.87.100 (talk) 10:10, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Aristotle wrote what?[edit]

I would be interested to know where the phrase "ζῶον λόγον ἔχον" exists outside of Heidegger's "Being and Time"! Miimno (talk) 10:38, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It appears [[2]] in Hermeneutics by Andrzej Wiercinski. He lists the source in a footnote, as Aristotle's Politics 1253a 9-10 (trans B. Jowett) from The Complete Works of Aristotle by Johnathan Barnes (1984) "Nature as we often say, makes nothing in vain, and man is the only animal with the gift of speech".68.58.218.88 (talk) 18:39, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Social Comparison Theory[edit]

Obviously this article is missing a world of information on this particular comment. However, if i were to suggest something to help with keeping it up-to-date, social comparison theory is a vital piece of our modern day that is encased in the topic of self-reflection. As this dilemma within the modern generations becomes more and more detrimental to their social skills, image, and esteem; We can see self-reflection is the majority of what adolescents and young adults truly worry about. The included link is an article discussing the effects of social comparison on social media and its outcomes.
