As a senior in high school, Ludy worked as an assistant to the children’s librarian in his town library. He
enjoyed shelving the books in the library because he was able to work alone and focus on his task. Although
the library was normally a quiet place, sometimes the children’s section became quite noisy when groups of
children visited. After working in an unfulfilling desk job for 30 years, Ludy recalls how much he enjoyed
working at the library and decides to go back and work as a volunteer creating new programs for
disadvantaged children.
Describe how each of the following concepts relates to Ludy’s return to working at the library.
• Crystallized intelligence
• Altruism
• Big Five trait of extraversion
• Broca’s area
• Self-efficacy
• Episodic memory
• Self-actualization
