Mentalconstruct
Mentalconstruct refers to a psychological or cognitive framework that an individual uses to understand and interpret the world. These constructs are not tangible but are built from experiences, beliefs, values, and knowledge. They shape how people perceive situations, other people, and themselves. A mental construct acts as a lens through which reality is filtered and organized, influencing thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. For example, a person with a mental construct of "trustworthiness" might readily believe what others say, while someone with a construct of "skepticism" would be more inclined to question information.
These internal frameworks are dynamic and can evolve over time through new experiences, learning, and conscious
