Answers (100% Correct Answers) | Latest
Structuralism Ans: an early school of psychology that used
introspection to explore the structural elements of the human
mind
W. Wundt Ans: founder of psychology; founded first official
lab; attempted to study and analyze consciousness
- He separated Psychology from Philosophy by analyzing the
mind in a more structured way
Titcherner Ans: Attempted to classify the mind like a chemist
(H20)
Sensations had four distinct properties (intensity, duration,
quality and extent)
Behaviorism Ans: the science of behaviour that focuses on
observable behaviour only
contiguity theory Ans: Guthrie's idea that learning depends on
a stimulus and response occurring together in time rather than
depending on reinforcement.
4 principles of Contiguity Theory Ans: 1) person must actively
respond
2) instructions must present very specific tasks
3) exposure to many variation in stimuli

4) the last response when learning should be correct since this
is what individual will associate to
classical conditioning Ans: a learning process that occurs
when two stimuli are repeatedly paired; a response that is at
first elicited by the second stimulus is eventually elicited by
the first stimulus alone. -PAVLOV
Joseph Wolpe Ans: applied pavlov classical conditioning to
treat anxiety. He joined realization with an anxiety - causing
stimulus to render the stimulus harmless.
- Systematic desensitization - (similar to exposure therapy)
operant conditioning Ans: a type of learning in which
behaviour is strengthened if followed by a reinforcer or
diminished if followed by a punisher
B.F. Skinner Ans: Operant conditioning
positive reinforcement Ans: increasing behaviours by
presenting positive reinforcers. A positive reinforcer is any
stimulus that, when presented after a response, strengthens
the response.
negative reinforcement Ans: Increasing behaviours by
stopping or reducing negative stimuli, such as shock. A
negative reinforcer is any stimulus that, when removed after a
response, strengthens the response. (Note: negative
reinforcement is not punishment.)
avoidance learning Ans: similar to negative reinforcement but
the desired behaviour serves to prevent the onset of a noxious
stimulus - EX criticism from a supervisor exhibits desired
behaviour to avoid consequences
