What was the original animal that Watson & Rayner (1920) utilised in their conditioning?
White Rat - They conditioned Little Albert to be scared of the white rat.
Distinguish the lowland and highland tribes within Deregowski, Muldrow & Muldrow (1972)
highland tribes were likely exposed with pictures
lowland tribes would have seen all the depicted animals but little exposure to pictures.
Describe how the phonological loop described in Baddeley and Hitch (1974) is involved in Working Memory
Phonological loop is involved in auditory working memory. This is the storage of what we hear.
What term describes Little Albert also being fearful of rabbits, dogs, fur coats, cotton wool.

Which of the three studies, Hudson (1960), Deregowski (1972) and Deregowski, Muldrow and Muldrow (1972) focused on the recognition of pictures?

Jeremy always studies at home at the kitchen table with his family around who are always talking and playing loud music. Jeremy finally sits his Biology Paper 1 exam in quiet exam room compared to his Biology Paper 2 exam which was positioned next to a loud talking class.
Determine which exam Jeremy is likely to perform better in with reference to the findings of Grant et al. (1998).
They found performance was better in matching conditions therefore Jeremy will likely perform better in the exam room that matches his study environment. Therefore Jeremy will likely perform better in the loud talking class (Biology Paper 2 exam)
Comment on a limitation of Pavlov (1897/1902) study with regards to generalising to classical conditioning in humans.
Pavlov (1897/1902) was conducted on animals and therefore is limited in scope to human behaviour and does not consider the cognitive processes involved in human behaviour.
What year was the Hudson experiment conducted?
(1970)
Determine whether the Context-dependent effect demonstrated in Grant et al. (1998) is age-dependent or not.
Context-dependent effect is likely not age-dependent as Grant et al. (1998) had a large age range involved (17-59 years old).
Describe how Ross and Ross (1961) Bobo experiment relates to Bandura (1977)?
