Emotional Intelligence
Different types of learning?
Associative learning
- Process of discovering relationships or associations between events
Non-associative learning
- Habituation: become less sensitive to a stimulus due to repeated
exposure - Sensitization: become more responsive to a stimulus in the environment
- Both result in a change in strength of a response to a single stimulus
What is Operant behaviour?
Operates on the
environment (E) and is controlled by its
consequences
- The role of reinforcement in learning
What is classical conditioning?
Think Pavlov’s dogs.
Classical conditioning is a behavioral procedure in which a biologically potent stimulus is paired with a previously neutral stimulus
Unconditioned stimulus (UCS) - any stimulus that produces
a reflexive or innate response at the outset (i.e. without prior
learning)
Unconditioned response (UCR) - the reflexive / innate
response to the UCS
Conditioned stimulus (CS) - a stimulus, which after repeated
pairings with the UCS, comes to elicit the CR
Conditioned response (CR) - a response (similar to UCR),
now elicited by the CS
What is behaviorism?
- Emphasizes the environmental control of behaviour through learning
- Proposes understanding behaviour in terms of associations formed between stimuli and responses
What are Aversion therapies?
Aversion therapy – attempts to condition an aversion towards a stimulus that elicits an unwanted response, by pairing it with an unpleasant UCS
• E.g. The drug ‘antabuse’ given to alcoholics which induces extreme nausea when they ingest alcohol

What does PERMA stand for?
Positive
Engagement
Relationships
Meaning
Accomplishment
What is the Broaden and build theory?
- Negative emotions can leave you with a narrow view on a situation
- Broaden awareness that can allow you to broaden your approach
- Broadening behaviour
- Allow you to see other solutions/ engage on other activity etc.
- Overall positive emotions makes it easier to navigate challenging situations
What are the main components in the Bio-psycho-social model and what is its use?
- Biological
- Psychological
- Social
The biopsychosocial model is both a philosophy of clinical care and a practical clinical guide. Philosophically, it is a way of understanding how suffering, disease, and illness are affected by multiple levels of organization, from the societal to the molecular
What is the Health Belief Model (HBM)
- The Health Belief Model (HBM) is a psychological model that attempts to explain and predict health behaviors
- It is a methodical tool that researchers or experts often use to determine or forecast human behaviors towards health.
- This is done by focusing on the attitudes and beliefs of individuals.
There are six components of HBM. What are they?
- Perceived Susceptibility
- Perceived Severity
- Perceived benefits
- Perceived barriers
- Cues to Action
- Health motivation
What is the theory of planned behaviour and the main components?
The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) is a psychological theory that links beliefs to behaviour. The theory maintains that three core components, namely, attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control, together shape an individual’s behavioural intentions.
- Attitude
- Subjective norms
- Perceived behavioural control
What is the stages of change model and its use?
Model of intentional change
• Distinguish between the stages of change in acquiring positive behaviour
or modifying problem behaviour
• Widely used as basis of health behaviour intervention: Personalization by
motivation level
• Application in smoking cessation, exercise, diet, weight management,
condom use, cancer screening
Stages:
Precontemplation
Contemplation
Preparation
Action
Maintenance
(Relapse) If applicable
What is the behaviour change wheel?
- The Behaviour Change Wheel is a powerful new tool for those designing and evaluating behaviour change interventions. By setting out a systematic method for understanding behaviour, and linking this understanding to techniques known to change behaviour in a clear and engaging format, this book gives practitioners and policy makers a scientific approach to designing interventions that are most likely to be effective
- Its more of a framework
