School: University of Arizona (UA )
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 8This study guide covers lectures 10-18 overall discussing the mind and memory functioning
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 5Lecture 18 discusses ways to retrieve memories as well as forgetting and problems with remembering memories. We also discuss why our memories can be so full of errors.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 4This lecture we pick up from the last lecture (lecture 16) and learn about processing strategies, levels of processing, and making information personal, all under encoding. Then we look at memory storage in reference to capacity and location.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 4This lecture describes models of how our memory works (Atkinson Shifron Model, Dual Track Processing, and Automatic Processing), and leads into an emphasis on Encoding (next lecture will explore Storage and Retrieval on a deeper level)
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 4In this lecture we discuss punishment (negative and positive), and the effect of biolgy on learning and cognition. We also learn about intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, observational learning, and applications of observational learning
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 3In this lecture we discuss Operant conditioning and the various types of reinforcements used including the types of reinforcement schedules.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2An introduction to learning, beginning with Classical Conditioning and how it works (examples from Ivan Pavlov's dog experiment).
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 3This lecture finishes off perceptual organization and then discusses hearing, the ear, and sound perception.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 3Continuance of basic principles from the last lecture -- Sensory adaptation, perceptual set, context effects, and emotion and motivation. Then a discussion of vision including the eye, color vision, and perceptual organization.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2This lecture discusses briefly sensation and perception and discusses how we make sense of the world, the process of sensation, and the thresholds.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 9A study guide for lectures 1-9 discussing chapters 1,2, and 5 from the textbook for Exam 1.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 3In this lecture we discuss adolescent physical development, brain development, cognitive development, and social development. We also briefly look at Kohlberg's levels of Moral Reasoning.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 5This lecture discusses Paget's stages of cognitive development as well as Vygotsky's social development.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 3This lecture is about brain development through newborn and infancy. Also listed are skills babies are born with.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 4The ways we can monitor brain activity, description and functions of the life sustaining inner parts of the brain.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2The inner and outer parts of the nervous system. A description of the Central Nervous System, Peripheral Nervous System (and its multiple parts), and the Endocrine System (and its multiple parts).
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2Description of the structure of a neuron as well as the functions of parts of the neuron. How neurotransmitters activate receptors and the molecules that allow and prevent this.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2How to find causation, the difference between random sampling and random assignment, what control groups are, the placebo effect, and what independent and dependent variables are.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2Three descriptive types of research, what random sampling is and why it is done, and what correlation is.
-
From: GradeBuddy Pages: 2About the need for psychology, and it's scientific process.
