Fluent aphasia
Receptive aphasia. Poor comprehension. Words may lack meaning
Internalized racism
Acceptance of negative messages about the abilities and intrinsic worth by members of a stigmatized races
Heteroscedasticity
When the scatter is uneven at different points of a continuum. So it refers to differential levels of scatter, NOT high scatter.
Instrumentality
The belief that performance will result in certain outcomes
ANCOVA
Single continuous DV is compared to categorical IV AND a continuous IV
Who is associated with Contingency Theory
Fiedler
Criterion contamination
Artificial inflation of validity which can occur when raters subjectively score ratees on a criterion measure after they have been informed how the ratees scored on the predictor
Conduction aphasia
Due to damage to the nerve fibers connecting Broca’s to Wernicke’s and the most typical result is difficulty repeating what one has heard.
Kinetic depth cues
Based on movement of the object or body. Begin perceiving at 3 weeks
Implicit memory
An unconscious, non intentional form of memory
Bounded rationality (administrative) model of decision making
Decision makers are not always completely rational in making choices. Instead time and resources limit their consideration of alternatives so they tend to consider alternatives only until a satisfactory one is identified.

High task, low relationship orientation
Herzberg’s 2 factor theory
Views satisfaction and dissatisfaction as separate phenomena.
Dissatisfaction is related to hygiene factors. Satisfaction is related to motivator factors
Side effects with SSRIs vs Tricyclics
Fewer side effects with SSRIs
Tricyclics are associated with cognitive impairments, especially in the elderly
Covariant
Continuous IV
Vygotsky versus Piaget
Vygotsky stressed the importance of social and cultural impact on the developing child more than Piaget
Cognitive Dissonance theory
A person is motivated to reduce negative, aversive state that results when his or her cognitions conflict with each other
Model linked to Herbert Simon

1 way looks at 1 factors, 2 way looks at 2 or more factors
