To students just embarking on the study of Greek history and historians alike, It might seem absurd to pose the question of whether the great city of Athens was the leading promoter of democracy in the rest of the Greek city-states during the 4th and 5th centuries. After all, the majority of personal accounts of Greece in that period allege that the Athenian empire was the first to advocate for the establishment of democracy. However, we find little to no concrete confirmation of this widely…

John B. Watson and Rosalie Raynor. The Little Albert experiment was a case study that showed empirical evidence of classical conditioning in humans. The type of learning that was demonstrated in this study was hypothesizing fearful response in children to loud noises is an innate unconditional response. This type of test was a following response to a procedure known as the, “classical conditioning.” The unconditioned response to condition a child to fear a distinctive stimulus that normally…

Lab 1- Hardy Weinberg Godfrey Hardy, a mathematician, and Wilhem Weinberg, a physician in Germany, formulated a probability equation about the frequencies of genes that are inheritable within a gene pool. They analyzed that the frequencies of alleles. Hardy and Weinberg made an equation about genetic variance of a population at equilibrium. They postulated that allele or genes should be stable or equal with no disturbing factors. For a generation be able to remain constant and reach the…

Part I: Applications of Classical Conditioning Treatment of Dissociative Identity Disorder The treatment of the dissociative identity disorder follows a consistent observance of psychological requirements. It is important to understand that therapists have the tendency to clearly understand the best practices regarding medication. Classical conditioning is one of the methods that can be used to ensure that dissociative identity disorder patients get their treatment. Dissociative…

influences our thoughts and actions. Two types of learning are classical conditioning and operant conditioning. Each conditioning method has a distinct way of invoking a change in the behaviors and actions in a subject. Conditioning is a method of changing a person’s behavior by giving them positive or negative reinforcement for every feat they make until they realize which actions cause rewards and which actions cause negative reactions. Classical conditioning, or Pavlovian…

to them. This suggests that not only does the environment play an important role in animal learning but evolution determines their behaviour and therefore intelligence. This effect limits research in studying animal learning, as demonstrated in classical and operant conditioning; animals can only be taught in tasks that elicit their natural responses. Furthermore, this does not allow species to be taught behaviours that oppositional, thus we are unable to conclude whether the animal has learned…

As I walked my students into the auditorium we could hear music playing and some students who were already seated were singing along. As the current song came to an end and a few cords of the next song began, the teachers listened in amazement as the 500 students in the audience burst into song. The sweet sound of children’s voices singing, Let it Go (Lopez), warmed the cold room. This performance was not planned or practiced; it started by just a few simple musical notes. The reaction of the…

This case will analyze – from the perspective of three teams of experts from the Behavioral, Social Cognitive and Cognitive schools of personality – Jane, who is a 38-year-old, African American female. She has wanted therapy ever since her husband was killed in a car crash. She was a passenger during the accident. However, while she wants therapy, she does not want to venture out of her home. In fact, she is afraid of such a prospect. Her family is not helping her, as they believe she is using…

Intuitively we know that the size of an object can have a significant impact on its dynamics. We have seen athletes or animals creating moves beyond our imagination, as shown in Fig. 4.1. This is because their ability in manipulating different parts of their bodies in creating dynamic complexities shown in the images. Certainly we would not be able to ignore the role played by each part of the body if we were to analyze the dynamics of an extended object. However, there is one point, associated…

Rhetoric, as a practice, is as old as human society itself. As long as there have been crowds in streets or on forums, people have spoken to sway them; as long as social conditions have existed, people have agitated to change them, and as soon as writing was created, it was used to influence the actions of others. In the ostensibly democratic Athens (at least for free men born in the city to native parents) (Goldstein 88), Aristotle emphasized the role of rhetoric in persuading one’s fellow…
