Q

Carl Rogers claim we have two basic innate drives.((basic human needs) What are these?

A
  1. Need for self-actualization
  2. Need for positive regard
52
Q

This positive regard is when others like us and they respect us with no strings attached.

” I like you, I care about you just the way you are”

A

Unconditional positive regard

53

Key theorists are PAVLOV, WATSON, and SKINNER

A

Learning/Behavioural Theories

57
Q

What are the focus of Pavlov and Watson’s classical conditioning?

A

Observable behaviour and outside environmental stimuli

58
Q

Behaviour is result of continuing exposure to specific environmental factors; developmental change is quantitative.

This is how development proceeds in ______

A

Classical conditioning

59
Q

This is a type of learning in which an organism responds in a particular way to a neutral stimulus that normally does not bring about that type of response.

Ex experiment: Exposing dog to stimulus

A

Classical conditioning

60
Q

He took Pavlov’s research a step further by showing that emotional reactions could be classically conditioned in humans.

He argued that by effectively controlling a peron’s environment, it was possible to produce virtually any behaviour.

a. Charles Darwin
b. John Watson
c. Erik Erikson

A

John Watson

61
Q

The little Albert experiment is an example of Watson’s _______? where it demonstated that emotional reactions could be classically conditioned in humans.

A

Classical conditioning

62
Q

He claimed that people operate on their environment to bring about a desired state of affairs.

a. B.F. Skinner
b. James Watson
c. Charles Darwin

A

B.F Skinner

63
Q

In this type of conditioning by B.F Skinner, it focuses on observable behaviour and outside environmental stimuli.

How development proceeds: voluntary response is strengthened or weakened by association with negative or positive consequences.

A

Operant Conditioning

64
Q

____ increases the probability of some behaviour being repeated and it does that by delivering or removing a stimulus immediately after behaviour.

It happens when a behaviour is repeated because of the consequence that followed it.

A

Reinforcement

65
Q

This type of reinforcement involves adding a “pleasant” consequence to an action to increase the probability of the action being continued.

Ex: a man gives his daughter praise for doing her homework.

praise= reinforcing stimulus
homework= behaviour

A

Positive reinforcement

66
Q

This type of reinforcement involves the removal of something “unpleasant” and results in the increase of the probability of the action occurring again.

Ex: Evelyn does the dishes (behaviour) in order to stop her mom from nagging her (aversive stimulus)

A

Negative reinforcement

67
Q

_____ decreases the probability that the behaviour will be repeated.

When a behaviour stops/decreases because of a consequence, ____ has occurred.

A

Punishment

68
Q

true or false

When somebody performs a behavior that’s usually punished but it’s not punished this time, that lack of punishment can promote the behaviour.

A

TRUE

69
Q

This type of punishment involves adding something “unpleasant” such as scolding.

This works by presenting an aversive consequence after an undesired behaviour is exhibited and this makes the behaviour less likely to happen in the future.

Ex: A child swears in class (behaviour) and the teacher reprimands the student (aversive stimulus)

A

Positive punishment

70
Q

This type of punishment involves the removal of something “pleasant” such as taking away TV privileges.

Ex: a child hits their peer (behaviour) and is removed from their favourite activity (reinforcing stimulus removed)

A

Negative punishment

71
Q

_____ is a decrease in behaviour after repeated non-reinforcement (e.g. ignoring it)

a. Extinction
b. Partial reinforcement

Extinction

72
Q

Partial reinforcement

73
Q

______ happens when an individual learns a complex behaviour through the reinforcement of intermediate steps.

b. Partial reinforcement
c. Shaping

A

Shaping

74
Q

These theories emphasizes mental aspects of development, such as logic and memory.

Key theorists are PIAGET, BANDURA, VYGOTSKY, INFORMATION PROCESSING

A

Cognitive theories

75
Q

He is the father of cognitive development.

he wanted to understand how the adult mind develops.

he observed, tested, questioned children by observing children’s play. he takes notes and extract clues about how they think about the world.

he noticed that young children provide qualitatively different answers than older children and he presented children with tasks to solve and question them about their reasons for the solutions taht they offered on these tasks (ex: number conservation)

A

Jean Piaget

76
Q

What are the 3 key features of Jean Piaget’s cognitive theory?

A
  1. Assimilation
  2. Accommodation
  3. Equilibration
77
Q

Piaget’s _________ focus on processes that allow people to know, understand, and think about the world.

A

Cognitive Developmental Theory

78
Q

_____ is a category of knowledge, that a child puts together to understand the world. It may represent behaviours, objects, events, or concepts.

When a children play and explore, they/re acting on objects and they’re developing this mental representation.

Ex: child developing a ____ of a bubble.

A

Scheme

79
Q

Piaget believes that humans create their own understanding of the world. He believed that learning is caused by a blend of two processes: __________ and ___________

A

Assimilation and Accommodation

80
Q

_______ is less mentally challenging than accommodation. Children transform incoming information so that it fits within their existing thinking.

A child uses preexisting schemes to understand a new object or situation

Ex: by calling the picture of COVID-19 virus a bubble.

A

Assimilation

81
Q

_________ is where children adapt their thinking to incoming information.

A child adapts preexisting scheme to fit a new experience or object. The child creates a new scheme of virus.

A

Accommodation

82
Q

______ is the process of balancing assimilation and accommodation to create schemes that fit the environment- we learn what works and what does not work in particular situations.

This motivates a child to continue through the stages of cognitive development.

A

Equilibration

83
Q

When a child experiences assimilation, their world view is inaccurate. They’re in a state of disequilibrium. This motivates the child to accommodate new info. to reach a state of _____

A

equilibrium

84
Q

Piaget suggested that equilibration takes 3 phases:

A
  1. The children are satisfied with their scheme and therefore in a state of equilibrium.
    Ex: the child calls the CPVID-19 virus photo a bubble and the kid is okay with that but the mom says “no it’s not a bubble, it’s a virus” and the child becomes aware that their thinking is incorrect and now the child is in the state of:
  2. Disequilibrium- experiencing cognitive conflict
  3. Child develops a more sophisticated way of thinking and calls the photo of a COVID-19 virus a “virus” and in doing so, reaches a more stable state of equilibrium.
85
Q

What are Piaget’s 4 stages of Cognitive Development?

A
  1. Sensorimotor stage (birth to 2 yrs)
  2. Preoperational Stage (2-7 yrs)
  3. Concrete Operational Stage (7-11 yrs)
  4. Formal Operational Stage (12 and up)
86
Q

This cognitive development stage is where the baby understands the world through er senses and her motor actions; she begins to use simple symbols, such as single words and pretend play, near the end of this period

A

Sensorimotor stage

87
Q

This cognitive development stage is where the child’s logic takes a great leap forward with the development of new internal operations, such as conversation and class inclusion, but is still tied to the known world; by the end of the period, he can reason about simple “what if” questions.

A

Concrete operational stage

88
Q

This cognitive development stage, the child can use symbols both to think and to communicate; he develops the abilities to take others’ points of view, classify objects, and use simple logic by the end of this stage.

A

Preoperational Stage

89
Q

This cognitive development stage, the child begins to manipulate ideas as well as objects; she thinks hypothetically and, by adulthood, can easily manage a variety of “what if” questions; she greatly improves her ability to organize ideas and objects mentally.

A

Formal operational stage

90
Q

In __________ the focus is primarily on thinking and memory.

Information enters the mind but the input is transformed by mental programs and is used to perform actions and that is the output.

A

Information Processing

91
Q

_______ approaches seek to identify the ways that individuals take in information, use information, and store information.

A

Information Processing

92
Q

In _______, you organize information to be stores in memory

A

Encoding

93
Q

____ refers to keeping information

A

Storage

94
Q

_____ refers to getting information out of memory

A

Retrieval

95
Q

Three types of memory in information processing

A
  1. Sensory memory- sensory information becomes sensory memory
  2. Short-term memory (working memory) - component where info. is processed
  3. Long-term memory- component where info. is permanently stored
96
Q

The ________ are theories that expand on Piaget’s theory rather than contradict it.

They assume that cognitive growth is more QUANTITATIVE than qualitative. They suggested as children develop, they’re better able to control their mental processing and they’re better able to change the strategies that they choose to process info.

A

Neo Piagetian

97
Q

This approaches on the forefront to cutting edge research that have identified specific genes associated with some physical and psychological disorders like Alzheimer’s disease.

What develops: focus on cognitive development through lens of brain

Approach considers internal, mental processes, but focuses specifically on the neurological activity that underlies thinking, problem solving, and other cognitive behaviour.

A

Cognitive Neuroscience

98
Q

_________ neuroscientists seek to identify actual locations and functions within the brain that are related to different types of cognitive activity

A

Cognitive

99
Q

He focused on the role of social interaction.

He created the sociocultural theory and argued that social learning shapes the development of cognitive competence.

Argued that children’s understanding of the world is acquired through their problem-solving interactions with adults and other children.

a. Lev Vygotsky
b. Charles Darwin
c. Erik Erikson

A

Lev Vygotsky

100
Q

________ signifies tasks that are too hard for the child to do alone, but that he can manage with guidance.

A

Zone of proximal development

101
Q

A method in which assistance by more knowledgeable others is aimed slightly above what a child can do on his/her own creating an environment that actually enhances children’s learning.

As the child becomes more competent, supports are gradually removed and the child takes over.

A

Scaffolding

102
Q

He said that learning does not always require reinforcement.

Sometimes we learn from watching others. (Observational learning/Modelling)

a. Lev Vygotsky
b. Albert Bandura
c. Charles Darwin

A

Albert Bandura

103
Q

This theory by Bandura suggests that a certain amount of learning is in the form of ___________ which is learning by observing the behaviour of other people so that the other person that you’re observing would be called a model.

This theory has come to predominate over simply assuming learning or development happens just from classical and operant conditioning.

A

Social Cognitive Learning Theory

104
Q

How does development proceeds in social cognitive learning theory?

A

Through imitation, observational learning/modelling

Observer has to pay attention to the model’s behaviour, observer must successfully recall the behaviour and behaviour must be reproduced accurately and the observer must be motivated to learn and carry out the behaviour.
