What are the four approaches?- Biological - Cognitive - Learning - Social State the main assumptions of the biological approach- Behaviour, cognitions and emotions can be explained in terms of biological systems & processes, such as evolution, the nervous system and hormones; - Behaviour, cognitions and emotions can be investigated by manipulating and measuring biological responses (e.g. eye movements, brain activity and pulse rate); - Similarities and differences between people can be understood in terms of biological factors and their interaction with other factors. State the main assumptions of the cognitive approach- Behaviour and emotions can be explained in terms of the role of cognitive processes such as attention, language, thinking and memory; - Similarities and differences between people can be understood in terms of individual patterns of cognition. State the main assumptions of the learning approach- Conditioning helps to explain changes in behaviour; - Social learning helps to explain changes in behaviour. State the main assumptions of the social approach- Behaviour, cognitions and emotions can be influenced by other individuals; - Behaviour, cognitions and emotions can be influenced by other groups or social contexts. Recall the names of the 3 case studies under the biological approach- Canli et al. (brain scans & emotions) - Dement and Kleitman (sleep & dreams) - Schacter and Singer (two factors in emotion) Recall the names of the 3 case studies under the cognitive approach- Andrade (doodling) - Baron-Cohen et al. (eyes test) - Laney et al. (false memory)
