S733: Iceberg Model of Life & World. GRP+ESPians +Meta.AI.

Human Theory of Social Relativity.

Understanding LIFE = Lived Individuals Formed Experiences..

What we see is just visible 10 % what underlies that is the unseen 90%.

This post started by a Question 2 famous people with similar sounding names (Kalam & Kasab) one Became the missile man scientist honored with state burial, & another became the mission man a terrorist hanged by state judicial. What Differentiated their Lives and one Rational member told its due to the environment, then we inquired what was the cause for Environment we arrived at Its the Education system & Experiences.. further on..

Thiz post tries to see deeper at the ICEBerg model of Life.

Here’s a simplified version of the previous model, condensed into an Iceberg Model with three sections:

Iceberg Model

Visible 10%: Behavior and Outcomes

• Life outcomes (health, happiness, success)
• Behavior (choices, actions, decisions)
• People (individuals, communities, societies)

Invisible 40%: Environmental and Socio-Cultural Influences

• Environment (physical, social, economic)
• Education and experience
• Ethos, culture, and ethnicity
• Socioeconomic factors (poverty, inequality)
• Religion, ideology, and politics

Invisible 50%: Underlying Processes, Principles, and Purposes

• Biological and evolutionary factors
• Evolutionary processes (genetic variation, natural selection)
• Fundamental human needs and drives (survival, belonging, meaning)
• Universal principles and values (compassion, fairness, justice)
• Ultimate purposes and goals (self-actualization, transcendence)

This Iceberg Model illustrates how the visible behaviors and outcomes of individuals and societies are influenced by a larger set of invisible factors, including environmental and socio-cultural influences, as well as underlying processes, principles, and purposes.

What is progression with citation for below Ideas.. ” Life depends on Behaviour, which depends on Environment which depends on Education or Experience which depends on Ethos, Culture or Ethnicity, which depends on Socio economics & politics which depends on evolution. and more..” explain with sources..

The concept you’re describing is a hierarchical, interconnected model of factors influencing human behavior and life outcomes. Here’s a breakdown of the progression with citations:

1. Life depends on Behaviour

• Research suggests that behavior plays a crucial role in determining life outcomes, including physical and mental health (World Health Organization, 2019) [1].
• Behavioral choices, such as diet and exercise, can significantly impact life expectancy and quality of life (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2020) [2].

2. Behaviour depends on Environment

• The environment has a profound impact on behavior, with factors such as urbanization, pollution, and climate change influencing human behavior and well-being (United Nations, 2020) [3].
• Environmental factors, such as access to green spaces and socioeconomic conditions, can shape behavioral choices and life outcomes (World Health Organization, 2018) [4].

3. Environment depends on Education or Experience

• Education and experience can shape an individual’s perception of their environment and influence their behavioral choices (Bandura, 1977) [5].
• Formal education and informal experiences can provide individuals with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to navigate their environment effectively (UNESCO, 2019) [6].

4. Education or Experience depends on Ethos, Culture or Ethnicity

• Cultural and ethnic background can significantly influence an individual’s values, beliefs, and behaviors, shaping their educational and experiential opportunities (Hall, 1959) [7].
• Ethos and cultural norms can impact access to education and experiences, perpetuating social inequalities (Bourdieu, 1977) [8].

5. Ethos, Culture or Ethnicity depends on Socio economics

• Socioeconomic factors, such as poverty and inequality, can shape cultural values and norms, influencing educational and experiential opportunities (Sen, 1999) [9].
• Socioeconomic conditions can impact access to resources, such as education and healthcare, which in turn shape cultural and ethnic identities (Giddens, 1998) [10].

6. Socio economics depends on Religion, ideology & politics

• Religious beliefs and ideologies can shape socioeconomic policies and systems, influencing access to resources and opportunities (Weber, 1905) [11].
• Political systems and ideologies can impact socioeconomic conditions, such as poverty and inequality, which in turn shape cultural and ethnic identities (Marx, 1867) [12].

7. Religion, ideology & politics depends on Biology & evolution

• Evolutionary processes have shaped human biology and behavior, influencing the development of religious beliefs and ideologies (Richerson & Boyd, 2005) [13].
• Biological and evolutionary factors, such as genetic variation and natural selection, have influenced human social and cultural development, including the emergence of complex societies and political systems (Diamond, 1997) [14].

This hierarchical model highlights the complex interplay between factors influencing human behavior and life outcomes. While this model is not exhaustive, it illustrates the importance of considering the broader social, cultural, and environmental contexts in which human behavior is shaped.
