General theory basis
there are limitations to human schemas - sometimes they can be inaaporopirate and used at the wrong time e.g. calling your teacher mum - someone could select the wrong schema for the social situation based on incorrect assumptions or subjective interpretations of soical cues.
there are four main type of schemas
self schema - this refers to the information that a erson holds regarding themself - this cna include our interpretation of our persoanilty traits, our moral value and our behaviours
person schema - this type of schema refers to the soical descriptors used to categoise poeple when meeting them - this is mainly based on an individuals percieved personality
role schema - this type of schema is used contain and organise information on behavioural and social norms - this is dependant on cultural and societla norms as well as the indviduals self schema as this dictates their particular role in soicety - this role then dictates what behaviour is appropriate and in which contexts
event schema - this relates to specific situations in which the schema can dictate what behaviour is appropriate
