Cobnsluion of baron
-individuals with hfa/as lack a theory of mind, because they struggle to identify the mental states of others
-the revised eye tets is a more efficient measure of social intelligence, because it overcome the problems of the original
-basis to which males more autistic traits than females
2 conclusions of pozzulo
-fact that with 100 accuracy can identify familiar cartoon characters in target present but not in target absnet, shows cognitive factors not responsible, for lower response rates in rejecting targets in target absnet lineups
-instead social factors eg authority that play a more significant role on false positive responses
-children worse than adults at identifying unfamiliar human faces and are more prone to false positive responses
Saavedra conclusions
-Disgust does play a role in the development and mainatence of a phobia
-imagery exposure has a positive long term effect on reducing distress related to phobias,
-behvaioural exposure therapy and positive reinforcement can help to treat phobias
2nd conclusion of Milgram
Admisntering shocks to people can cause extraordinary tension and emotional strain
Perry conclusions
Oxytocin enhances social cues in different ways depending on empathy levels, so supports the social salience hypothesis.
-oxytocin affects preferred interpersonal distance depending on empathy,
So high empathy, shorter distance
-in people w high empathy, only invokes a response in that of a less threatening nature
-people need less space with friends compared to with strangers
Milgram final aim
-rejects diffusion of responsibility hypothesis
-bc ppl more likely to help in larger groups
-and instead follows cost benefit matrix
-depends upon emotional arousal, how much empathy,
Then try to reduce emotional arousal,
Either ignore, or fetch help
