Kohlberg
|
1963
morality occurs in developmental stages 1. premoral- punishment/obedience orientation AND naive instrumental hedonism (satisfying needs =good) 2. morality of conventional role conformity - good boy/nice girl (what pleases others) AND authority maintaining morality (law/order, doing duty= good) 3. morality of self-accepted principles- morality of agreements/democratic law (society's values/individual rights determine right/wrong) AND morality of individual principle/conscience |
|
Langer, Rodin
|
1976
-old people in home surveyed : one group said to have been given responsibility, others were not -those given more personal responsibility have better lives/attitudes |
|
Five fundamental principles of behaviorism
|
1. Acquisition- response --> reinforcement (more likely to recur)
2. Exintinction- response --> no more reinforcement (less likely to recur) 3. Spontaneous recovery- previously extinguished response reinforced again--> behavior recurs 4. Generalization- stimuli similar to original more likely to trigger response 5. discrimination- response specific to ONE stimulus |
|
Schedule of reinforcement
|
continuous: every response reinforced
intermittent- not all are reinforced |
|
Intermittent reinforcement
|
fixed ratio- set amt. of items of accomplishment
fixed interval- reinforced at a predictable time (once a week) variable- you don't know when you'll be rewarded (like a slot machine) |
|
ABC therapy
|
antecedent behavior consequence: event before vs. response
parent prefers sister --> other kid picks fight --> kid gets suspended --> more attention (even negative is positive reinforcement) |
|
Components of attachment
|
-Bowlby
-secure base- comfortable, confident to explore -safe haven- place to run to in distress, anxiety when upset -proximity/protest separation- always want to be with person they're intimately connected to |
|
Attachment classifications:
|
-Ainsworth
-mom and baby in a room, mom leaves, stranger comes in-- baby response: secure attachement- upset when mom gone, happy when they returned, avoided stranger first, but friendly with mom (SENSITIVE/RESPONSIVE PRIMARY CARE) avoidant- unconcerned, no interest when she returned anxious- inconsolable when mom left, clingy when she came back -- INCONSISTENT PRIMARY CARE scared of abandonment, parents had to come back because child was too overwhelmed |
|
Cassidy
|
-Ainsworth test with six year olds
-secure: good view of relationships, high self-esteem -anxious- self-esteem fluctuates based on who they saw last -avoidant- low self-esteem |
|
Kobak and Sceery
|
-Ainsworth with teens
-secure: easy to communicate with, warm, secure -anxious: easily angry, jealous, hurt -avoidant: hostile, put up walls, best friends surprised to be named as such |
|
Hazan and Shaver
|
-Ainsworth with adults
-Secure: happy, trusting, good relationship Model: relationships last -Avoidant: less accepting, love from distance (think relationships don't last) -Anxious- love at first sight, obsessive, jealous, crazy emotions and sexual tension (think love never lasts but fall in love easily) WHAT WORKS: secure-secure, anxious-avoidant |
|
Piaget's stages of development
|
egocentrism
formal operational (develop reasoning, debate, abstract thinking) adolescent egocentrism- imaginary audience (people are watching everything i do), personal fable (audience watching you because you're unique, i'm different, leads to reckless behavior) |
|
Erikson's theory
|
1. trust vs. mistrust (age 0-1)
2. autonomy vs. shame/doubt (1-2) 3. initiative vs. guilt (3-5) 4. industry vs. inferiority (6-12) compare to everyone 5. identity vs role confusion- (13-19+) 6. intimacy vs. isolation (20-40) 7. generativity vs. stagnation (40-65) 8. integrity vs. despair |
|
Baumrind Parenting
|
parent vs. child centered:
democratic- expectations for behavior, but communicate with kid to find out what's wrong indulgent- high expectation, shift blame to others dictatorial- VERY high expectations, not in response to parents, strict, don't care about kid's opinion neglecting- no expectations, unaware of needs, wrapped up in stresses |
|
Brain stem
|
-starts where spinal cord ends
-automatic survival |
|
amygdala
|
-arousal, emotional regulation, mediate anxiety, depression, emotional memory
|
|
cerebellum
|
regulates movement balance, remembering simple skills, acquired reflexes, analyzes sensory info, problem solving, understanding words
|
|
Four lobes/functions
|
1. frontal- creative thinking, executive functionality, personality
2. parietal-tactile, touch perception 3. temporal- hearing, long-term memory, categorizing 4. occipital- vision |
|
Broca's area
|
-loss of function shows agrammatism, word dropping, omission of function words
|
|
Wernicke's area
|
fairly fluent speech, but all words are nonsense (syntax) -- think they're making sense
|
|
George
|
shot himself in the head, cured depression, became happy and social
|
|
Sternberg
|
triarchic theory
1. componential (analytical skills) 2. experiential- creative problem solving 3. contextual- application of things to daily life |
|
7 intelligences
|
1. linguistic- sensitive to words/meanings, good at reading, writing, debate, languages
2. musical- expressed young, see things in rhythm, hear music 3. logico-mathematical- logical, rational problem solving 4. spatial- recreate visual images, map reading, see others' views, vivid imagination, metaphors 5. bodily-kinesthetic- solve problems, remember by doing, use body to present idea in movement, make things with hands 6.interpersonal- know own feelings 7. intrapersonal- relate to others, make them comfortable, good in groups, nonverbal skills, communication 8. naturalistic- discriminate between living things, sensitive to natural world |
|
Memory systems
|
working memory- exists for all senses, 7 +/2 sec. unless practiced
sensory- diff. for each sense long-term; shaped by what's happening now, not actual experience, memory recall |
|
Types of sensory memories
|
Iconic- visual 0.5 sec.
echoic- hearing (3-4 sec) hepatic- <1 sec, feeling memory |
|
Memory processing
|
encoding (registering, learning-- rehearsal and retrieval)
storage retrieval |
|
5 ways to add meaning? Chunking?
|
1. tie into something you know
2. tie into something about you 3. form visual memory 4. make up sentences with info 5. ask questions |
|
Ebbinghaus
|
studied rehearsal by nonsense syllables, learning curve much faster the second time than first
rehearsal- rote repetition elaborative- associating it with stuff to learn |
|
primary vs. recency
|
you remember things you heard first and last
|
|
Effects of situation on memory
|
-more likely to remember if you put yourself in the situation you learned it (take exam in pjs, take it in same classroom)
