exam 2 Flashcards
Legacy of behaviorism: Not so encompassing after all; some behaviors are species specific; some species cannot learn some behaviors; Reward and Repetition can only partly explain rat behavior
this leads to a paradigm shift into cognitive psych
When sensation changes but perception stays the same
Constancies
Humans and animals perceive and learn nearly everything in terms of:
relationships
Behaviorism: His impact was establishing a set of laws to explain S-R connections that underlie behavior and was a forerunner of operant conditioning
Thorndike
Measurers: Who invented the techniques of correlation and regression?
Galton
Behaviorism: He attempted to use math to describe learning; calculus of learning
Hull
Behavior: Who said that free will was an illusion
Skinner
What year did the APA’s division 35 become established to promote the research and study of women?
1973
A psychic state of affairs; when you can see two lines (one vertical and one horizontal) becoming one
Phi Phenomena
Measurers: He revised the Binet-Simon scale to the Stanford-Binet scale
Terman
When a stimulus is similar-but not exactly the same as the regular conditioned stimulus- and gets a similar response but not as dramatic, this is known as
generalization
Measurers: His impact: Makes the US conscious of practical applications of psychology; his test determined who got to be an officer in the Army
Yerkes
“REsponses are either annoyers or satisfiers; Satisfiers lead to positive consequences and responses are likely to be repeated” This is known as:
The Law of Effect
There are typically long pauses in responding after reinforcement
Fixed-interval schedule
Is gestalt still around today?
Yes, just broken down into sections like Perception, problem solving, memory, etc.
Was noted for I.O. psych; proved women could be engineers too
Lillian Gilbreth
Name the 3 main scientists of Gestalt psych
Wertheimer, kohler, and koffka
She got her PhD 40 years after the fact
Ladd-Franklin
Gestalt was pushed aside by which other type of psych?
Behaviorism
Illusion in phi phenomena is at retina level or brain level?
Brain level
Measurers: Who thought we needed an alternative to the Stanford-Binet?
Wechsler
There are relatively short pauses in responding after reinforcement is provided
Fixed-Ratio Schedule
Measurers: Impact was launching mental testing in the USA
Cattell
Measurers: Invented the WAIS and WISC; included verbal and non-verbal scales
Wechsler
A visual illusion happens and is more frequent due to:
Retinal fatigue
Measurers: Wrote “Measuring Scale of Intelligence”
Binet
When an animal gets “antsy” it is considered
experimental neurosis
Gestalt: He wrote “Principles of Gestalt”
Koffka
Behaviorism: He’s associated with classical conditioning
Pavlov
Measurers: Built the measuring scale for intelligence–CRUCIAL IDEA: compared norms of peers to measure mental age
Binet
Behaviorism: Who watched cats and chickens in puzzle boxes
Thorndike
Neuronal traces that interact with new experiences to become meaningful
Memory
Measurers: Three types of intelligence- Creative, Analytical, and Practical
Sternberg
Who said :All learned behavior is nothing but a long chain of conditioned reflexes whose acquisition, maintenance, and extinction were governed by the laws he and his assistants discovered
Pavlov
She discovered Paired Associative LEarning and contributed to Dream research
Mary Whiton Calkins
Gestalt: Used heuristics to solve problems; thought functional fixedness was an impediment; Problem solving protocol
Duncker
Behavior: Best known work was “Walden Two”
Skinner
10 neurotic needs was her work
Karen Horney
Measurers: Thought we have multiple intelligences (8)
Gardener
Measurers: 1865 Cambridge student whose study leads to the theory that intelligence is hereditary
Galton
What year did Title IX help increase educational opportunities
1972
Name a visual illusion of Gestalt
Mueller-Lyer illusion
