theories - ANSWER- Psychoanalytic inner influences on our personality and behaviour
Behaviourist = environment as an influence on development)
Cognitive = examine role of thought on behaviour
Systems = contexts interact with each other
Who developed the psychoanalytic theory - ANSWER- Freud
Who developed operant conditioning? - ANSWER- Watson
Who developed social learning theory - ANSWER- Bandura
Who developed cognitive developmental theory - ANSWER- Piaget
Who developed sociocultural theory - ANSWER- Vygotsky
Who developed bioecological systems theory - ANSWER- Bronfenbrenner
Psychoanalytic theory - ANSWER- development and behaviour is constructed by
childhood experiences and unconscious desires
Behaviourist - Operant conditioning - ANSWER- we repeat behaviours that have
pleasant outcomes, and stop behaviours with unpleasant outcomes
Behaviourist - Social Learning Theory - ANSWER- modelling and observational learning

type? - ANSWER- blood type AB because neither dominate each other

colour
heterozygrous - ANSWER- different alleles of a specific trait; the dominant gene will be
expressed over the recessive one
List some dominant traits - ANSWER- dark hair
curly hair
hair
non-red hair

baldness
red hair
no dimples
blue, green, hazel eyes
big toe longer than second toe
type O blood
Rh-negative blood
colour blindness
spina bifida - ANSWER- lowest part of the neural tube fails to close and spinal nerves
