Q

Why was Wundt’s work significant and what was his aims

A

-Wundt’s work is significant because it marked the beginning of scientific psychology , separating it from its broader Philosophical roots

-Wundt’s aims was to try to analyse the nature of human consciousness , and thus represented the first systematic attempt to study the mind under controlled conditions

Q

Psychodynamic Appraoch

A
  • Freud-1900s
  • emphasises that behaviour is down to the unconscious mind

-he also develops his person-centred theory psychoanalysis and shows that physical problems can be explained in terms of conflicts within the mind

Q

Cognitive approach

A

-1950s

The introduction of digital computers gives psychologists a metaphor for the operations of the human mind

-The cognitive approach reduces the study of mental processes to psychology but in a much more scientific way than Wundt’s earlier investigations

-Experiments/lab based

-SCIENTIFIC

-dominant view point at the time

Social Learning Theory

A

-Albert Bandura -1960s

-This approach draws attention to the role of cognitive factors in learning - providing a bridge between the newly established cognitive approach and traditional behaviourism

-Learning from observation - consequences of others lead to copying or not

-Scientific - lab based

Q

What did the behaviourist approach believe?

A

-Behaviourists believe that all behaviour is learnt from the environment (nothing is innate)

-They believe we are born as a blank slate - Tabula Rasa

-They are only interested in studying behaviour that can be observed and measured

Q

Explain Pavlov’s dogs

A

-Pavlov showed hoe dogs could be conditioned to salivate at the sound of a bell if that bell was repeatedly presented at the same time they were given food

-Gradually Pavlov’s dogs learned to associate the sound of the bell (a stimulus) with the food (another stimulus) and would produce the salivation response every time they heard the sound

-Thus Pavlov was able to show how a neutral stimulus(the bell ) can come to elicit a new learned response through association

Food(UCS) ---- salivation(UCR)

Food (UCS) + bell(NS) — salivation
(UCR)

Bell(CS)————-salivation(CR)

Q

An example of Operant conditioning

A

-Skinners Box - skinner conducted experiments with rats and sometimes pigeons in specially designed cages called skinner boxes

-Positive Reinforcement - Every time the rat activated a leaver within the box it was rewarded with a food pellet - from then on the animal would continue to perform this behaviour

-negative reinforcement - Every time the rat pressed the leaver the floor in the box became unelectrified

Q

Behaviourism - STRENGTH
-scientific Credibility

A

One strength is the approach is based on well controlled research

  • Behaviourists focused on the measurement of observable behaviour within highly controlled lab settings
  • by breaking down behaviour into basic stimulus response units , all other possible extraneous variables were removed , allowing cause and effect relationships to be established

-For instance Skinner was able to clearly demonstrate how reinforcement influenced an animals behaviour

-This suggests that behaviourist experiments have scientific credibility

Q

Behaviourism - STRENGTH - practical application

A

-One strength is the approach has practical application

the principles of conditioning have been applied to real world behaviour and problems

For example principles of operant conditions are used in token economy systems which have been used successfully in institutions such as prisons and psychiatric wards

-These work by rewarding appropriate behaviour with tokens that can be exchanged for privileges

Therefore it generates a method of control to encourage good behaviour, this is especially advantageous when managing large groups

Q

Behaviourism - LIMITATION - practical applications

A

However one weakness of a token economy is it is a short term solution as the participants may have no motivation to continue good behaviour when they are not being rewarded .

This approach is criticised due to this lack of long term effectiveness and can be argued to be unethical

Q

Behaviourism - LIMITATION
- ignores cognition

A

Furthermore the behaviourist approach ignores cognition .

This means it Just looks at the stimulus and the response . This is an issue as it ignores the emotions and motivations behind why actions were performed

This is a limitation as it views humans as passive responders.

Although some behaviourists will argue that they are only interested in studying observable behaviour

Q

What did the biological Approach suggest

A

All behaviour is strongly influenced by our genetic makeup and genetic inheritance .

Behaviour is not learned from others around you

-Mind lives in the brain- all thoughts, feelings and behaviour ultimately have a physical bias

-brain = biological structure, so anything psychological is first biological

Q

Biological Approach features

A

humans have evolved to behave in certain ways that have allowed the species to survive

-natural selection - weaker mal adaptive genes are not passed on

-adaptive genes are passed on

-behaviour becomes universal - see them across cultures

-facial expressions are a wired in behaviour - exactly the same across the world

-adaptive trait in human behaviour is aggression

-past people were aggressive over - land , food , family ,children (need these to survive)

-today people are aggressive over land and territory

Q

Social learning theory

A

A way of explaining behaviour that includes both direct and indirect reinforcement , combining learning theory with the role of cognitive factors

56
Q

What Does Social learning theory believe

A

-Albert Bandura -proposed social learning theory as a development of the behaviourist approach

-he argued that classical and operant conditioning could not account for all human learning

-he believed that there are important mental processes that lie between the stimulus and response prosed by the behaviourist approach

57
Q

what does social learning theory form a bridge between

A

-behaviourism

  • cognitive approach
58
Q

Vicarious reinforcement

A

Reinforcement which is not directly experienced but occurs through observing someone else being reinforced for a behaviour

The key factor is imitation

-Behaviour is then seen to be rewarded (reinforced) is much more likely to be copied than behaviour that is punished

59
Q

imitation

A

copying the behaviour of others

60
Q

Assumptions of the approach

A

-It combines principles from both behaviours and cognitive approaches

-It is concerned with human rather than animal behaviour

-SLT sees people as active manipulators of their own environment rather than passive receivers of experiences

-learning occurs through observation of role models

61
Q

Modelling

A

From the observers perspective , modelling is imitating the behaviour of a role model .

From the role models perspective modelling is the precise demonstration of a specific behaviour that may be imitated by an observer

62
Q

Two types of modelling

A

Live model -these are people who are present in our environment (teachers, parents , siblings etc )

Symbolic models -these are people who are present in the media

63
Q

LEARNING BY OBSERVATION
Observational learning takes place in 4 steps:

A

1)The behaviour must be modelled which means it must be carried out by a role model like a parent friend or celebrity

2)The observer must identify with the role model - normally because they are similar in appearance ,gender , interests etc

3)The behaviour must be observed

4) The behaviour is imitated

64
Q

identification

A

When an observer associates themselves with a role model and wats to be like the role model

65
Q

Mediational processes

A

cognitive factors that influence learning and come between stimulus and response

66
Q

What are the four mediational processes

A

-attention
-retention
- Motor Reproduction
-motivation

67
Q

attention

A

The extent to which we notice certain behaviours

68
Q

retention

A

how well behaviour is remembered

69
Q

Motor reproduction

A

The ability of the observer to perform the behaviour

70
Q

Motivation

A

The will to perform the behaviour

which is often determined by whether the behaviour was rewarded or punished

71
Q

nurture

A

Imitating a behaviour that has been shown by a model who you have identified with

72
Q

What experiment did Albert Bandura do

A

Banduras Bobo doll experiment

73
Q

bobo doll experiment
AIM

A

To investigate whether social behaviours (e.g aggression) can be acquired by observation and imitation

74
Q

Bobo Doll Experiment
PROCEDURE

A

-Bandura and Walters showed videos to children where the adult behaved aggressively towards the bobo doll - the adult hit the doll with the hammer and shouted abuse at it

One group of children saw the adult praised for their behaviour

A second group saw the adult punished for their behaviour

The third group (control group ) saw the aggression without any consequence

The children then played in the room where there was the bobo doll ad well as other toys

75
Q

Bobo doll experiemtn
FINDINGS

A

They found that the children who observed the aggressive model with reward made far more aggressive imitations compared to the other two groups .

Boys were discovered to exert more physically aggressive behaviours than girls .

However there was little difference in verbal aggression between boys and girls

76
Q

Bobo doll experiment
CONCLUSION

A

The experiment concluded that children are able to learn social behaviour such as aggression through the process of the observation learning(through watching the behaviour of another person

77
Q

Bobo doll experiment
EVALUATION

A

The procedure is very standardised meaning it can be replicated = advantage
High Control lab experiment means high control of variables

Cannot include long term effects in conclusion =limitation
It is argued to be quite an unethical experiment = limitation

Q

Cognitive Approach

A

The term cognitive has come to mean mental processes so this approach is focused on how our mental processes effect behaviour

82
Q

Assumptions of the cognitive approach

A

All behaviour is down to internal mental processes - higher cognitive functions
-attention
-decision making
-manipulation in mind

-cognition is unobservable so psychologists study it indirectly by making inferences about what is going on inside people minds on the basis of there behaviour

83
Q

Internal mental processes

A

Private operations of the mind such as perception and attention that mediate between stimulus and response

84
Q

Inference

A

The process whereby cognitive psychologists draw conclusions about the way mental processes operate on the basis of observed behaviour

85
Q

Schema

A

-internal package of ideas
-based on experiences
-start out basic become more sophisticated
-mental shortcut to interpret world
-avoids people being overwhelmed

86
Q

What models do Psychologists use to help them understand internal mental processes

A

-theoretical models
-computer models

87
Q

human computer analogy

A

what cognitive psychologists use to explain how humans understand information

input- process -output
keyboard- format/save/edit -printer

88
Q

humans

A

Stimulus - mediator - response
environmental - cognition - behaviour

IGNORES MOTIVATION AND EMOTION

89
Q

Theoretical Model

A

set of ideas about how something works

e.g. memory models

represented as diagrams

90
Q

What have models lead to

A

the development of AI/Robotics

which mimic human processing

A

-IN THE 1900S DEVELOPED A THERAPUETIC APPROACH
-Promotes the idea of talking therapies
-first person to say you could be physically healthy and mentally unhealthy - physical and mental health are different
-Freud believed all of your behaviour was driven by the unconscious mind = main assumption his approach build on

Q

Fixation

A

stuck in a stage - Freud said in each stage there is a focus of pleasure and if you have to much or to little you will be stuck in the stage

113
Q

Oral

-NAIL BITING
-SMOKING
-CHEWING

114
Q

Anal

A

-1-3 years (children being potty trianed)
-focus of pleasure is the anus
-Child gains pleasure from withholding and expelling faeces

CONSEQUENCES AS AN ADULT FOR UNRESOLVED CONFLICT :

-.anally retentive - obsessive perfectionist
.anally expulsive - messy and disorganized and thoughtless

115
Q

Phallic

A

-3-6 years
-focus of pleasure is on genitals

CONSEQUENCES AS AN ADULT FOR UNRESOLVED CONFLICT :

-narcissistic
-reckless

116
Q

Oedipus and Electra complex

A

-Oedipus complex:
boys desire their mother and jealous of there father as he is the mothers desire and strong and powerful

-Freud says boys have castration anxiety - worried that if there father finds out there desire for there mothers that their father will cut their penis off

-resolution- boys stop desiring their mother and instead identify/internalise with their father - want to be like him

Electra complex:
-Freud believed feminism was failed masculinity so didn’t so a complex for women

-Freud viewed woman as irrational and hysteria

-Carl Young made the Electra complex which is the idea girls desire there father .

-worried that there mum might find out and that there mother has castrated them

-girls develop penis envy

-young and Freud believed penis=power

-resolution - identify /internalising mother - desire a baby

(Just their beliefs - just their interpretation meaning its subjective )

All leading up to genital stage which is puberty

118
Q

Genital

A

-Puberty onwards -focus on sexual relationships and genitals in terms of sexual desires .

if fixated here you will have a difficulty with heterosexual relationships

(Freud is very bond to his time as in his time homosexual relationshisps didn’t exist)
