HMS 105 Exam 9 question 1 Discuss differences and similarities between the social learning model and the cognitive-behavioral model. Intro A person who is trying to remain sober has many barriers to overcome. There is a “high rate of relapse during the recovery process” (Stevens & Smith, pg. 261). This is one reason why “more research is being done to address substance abuse relapse” (Stevens & Smith, pg. 261). There are many reasons why a person relapses. Since everyone is individual so is…
five steps of the scientific method? 1.)Begin with curiosity: BY “on the basis of theory, prior research, or personal observation, pose a question.” 2.)Develop a hypothesis: once you have the question, form it into a hypothesis, a prognosis would be evaluated 3.)Test the hypothesis: Design and lead research to accumulate experimental proof 4.)Analyze the evidence gathered in the research: figured out if the theory was right or not 5.)Report the results: share information, conclusions, or other…
Operant Conditioning Theory (Operant Conditioning) – Callum Arnold The Operant conditioning theory is an example of a connectionist theory of learning, relying upon the connection between a stimulus and a response. These may also be known as a S-R theories. This theory states that we become conditioned to give a particular response to a particular stimulus; that we have learned to act in a certain way given a certain stimulus. The likelihood of the response is dependent upon the strength of the…
varied ages. As I observed Maya, it was clear that her actions correlated well with certain theories of development we have learned in class. For example, the first one I noticed was when Maya and her younger brother, lucas, were playing dress-up. The theory that came to mind was Lawrence Kohlberg 's cognitive developmental theory of gender-role development. Specifically, the third stage of his theory related best to the situation. The stage is described as gender constancy, which is when the…
What is a theory? - A theory is a foundational belief of how the world works. As theories allow individuals to gain knowledge and have understandings, therefore the term ‘theory’ is powerful. Within this essay, there would be a discussion on a scenario of a child living in Aotearoa New Zealand using Urie Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological model as a guideline. By using Bronfenbrenner’s theory, this will help form an image of the child’s life and how it has an impact on the individual's learning and…
The purpose of this paper is to use the habituation technique in young infants to evaluate one hypothesis derived from Piaget’s theory of cognitive development. I will compare 5-months olds in a task that involves possible and impossible outcomes. Piaget’s theory specifies the cognitive competencies of children of this age. 1a. one of the stages that Piaget formulated was the sensorimotor. Children at this stage experience their environment through the senses, by investigating how things feel,…
adulthood. From learning how to smile, count, spell, and figuring out how to set their schedules and goals. Jean Piaget (1952, 1964) was a cognitive developmental psychologist who studied how we learn in the various stages, from the sensor motor stage, preoperational stage, and concrete operational stage and to the formal operational stage. However, all of Jean Piaget 's stages sort of overlap during the time of Erik Erikson 's stages of psychosocial development. Beginning with learning…
Many counselors and therapists rely on counseling theory throughout the process of assisting their clients with coping with life’s issues, understanding their circumstances, and making informed decisions. Counseling has proven to be an effective tool used by psychologists since it gained recognition in the 1950s (Strong, Welsh, Corcoran, & Hoyt, 1992). Counseling is considered to be beneficial because it “works through a safe and trusting relationship” (Redekop, Luke, & Malone, 2017, p. 106).…
Sensorimotor presents itself in Riley’s life by the age of two as she learns from her actions. An example of her learning from her actions is when Joy has her running around the house in playful glee, but Fear takes over when she gets to a lamp cord laying in her path. Riley’s fear of getting hurt makes her cautious as she steps over the cord before Joy has her taking…
children had different thought process than adults and that they reacted to certain scenarios differently. From doing his research and observation on children he was able to establish the Process of Cognitive Development. Piaget believed that children went through stages during thought processing and cognitive development. After his research he came to a conclusion that all children went through a series of stages. These were four stages which were the sensorimotor stage, Preoperational stage,…
