empirical study - ANS >> Results of verifiable evidence from a systematic collection and
analysis of data that has been objectively observed, measured, and undergone
experimentation.
Basic research - ANS >> research that answers fundamental questions about behavior.
Applied research - ANS >> research that investigates issues that have implications for
everyday life and provides solutions to everyday problems.
Basic research - ANS >> Expands knowledge on an area of research interest but does
not seek to promote change in behavior or mental state.
Empirical Research - ANS >> Collects and analyzes data on areas of research interest
using scientific measures to gain knowledge for knowledge's sake or to promote
changes in behavior or mental states.
Applied Research - ANS >> Applies research findings towards well-being, e.g. change
in behavior or mental state.
Mentalism - ANS >> type of performing art in which the performer appears to read the
mind of another. Such powers may seem to be the result of psychic or paranormal
practices, but in reality is the result of a combination of suggestion, misdirection, and
psychology.
Hypnosis - ANS >> a therapeutic technique employed by some clinicians to facilitate
increased suggestibility and dissociated experiences.
Consciousness - ANS >> our subjective awareness of ourselves and our environment.
dualism - ANS >> the mind (or soul) and the body are separate entities
monism - ANS >> consciousness and the mind are biologically based and exist within
the brain
cognitive neuroscience - ANS >> looks to correlate brain activity to behavior through the
use of functional brain imaging
, negative emotional reactions - ANS >> occur when we are not living up to our
anticipated goals or expectations or when we believe that other people perceive us
negatively
maladaptive behaviors - ANS >> use of alcohol or other psychoactive drugs, to escape
from consciousness
Developmental psychology - ANS >> the physiological, behavioral, cognitive, and social
changes that occur throughout human life, which are guided by both genetic
predispositions (nature) and environmental influences (nurture).
Birth to 8 months - ANS >> Trust versus mistrust. The child develops a feeling of trust in
rt
his or her caregivers.
18 months to 3 years - ANS >> Autonomy versus shame/doubt. The child learns what
he or she can and cannot control and develops a sense of free will.
3 to 6 years - ANS >> Initiative versus guilt. The child learns to be independent by
exploring, manipulating, and taking action.
6 to 2 years - ANS >> Industry versus inferiority. The child learns to do things well or
rt
correctly according to standards set by others, particularly in school.
12 to 8 years - ANS >> Identity versus role confusion. The adolescent develops a well-
rt
defined and positive sense of self in relationship to others.
19 to 40 years - ANS >> Intimacy versus isolation. The person develops the ability to
give and receive love and to make long-term commitments.
40 to 65 years - ANS >> Generativity versus stagnation. The person develops an
interest in guiding the development of the next generation, often by becoming a parent.
65 to death - ANS >> Ego integrity versus despair. The person develops acceptance of
his or her life as it was lived.
schemas - ANS >> patterns of knowledge in long-term memory—that help them
remember, organize, and respond to information.
Classical conditioning - ANS >> learning that occurs when a neutral stimulus (e.g., a
tone) becomes associated with a stimulus (e.g., food) that naturally produces a specific
behavior. (Pavlov)
Classical conditioning - ANS >> a type of associative learning that focuses on what
happens before the behavior occurs. It must begin with a stimulus that naturally evokes
a behavior in response. (Pavlov)
