Definition
Learning
the process of acquiring new and relatively enduring information or behaviors.
James-Lange theory
our experience of emotion is our awareness of our physiological responses to emotion-arousing stimuli.
John Garcia conducted the BoBo Doll experiment.
False
(Albert Bandura)
What did Albert Bandura's Bobo doll study prove?
Children learn social behavior such as aggression through the process of observation learning - through watching the behavior of another person.
the brain treats rejection like physical pain
the intensity of rejection might have caused it to spill over from emotional pain to physical pain
group-think
individual members of small cohesive groups tend to accept a viewpoint that represents a perceived group consensus, whether or not the group members believe it to be valid or correct
Two-factor theory of emotion
Schachter-Singer: to experience emotion must 1)be physically aroused 2) cognitively label the arousal
James Lange theory states that emotions occur as a result of physiological reactions to events.
True
What are the differences between classical and operant conditioning?
Operant conditioning is reinforcement, classical conditioning relies more on association between stimuli and responses. A second distinction is that much of operant conditioning is based on voluntary behavior, while classical conditioning often involves involuntary reflexive behavior.
Your favorite song is probably your favorite
because you associate it with an emotional event in your life.
Effortful processing
Learning or storing(encoding) that requires attention and conscious effort
Cannon-Bard theory
emotion-arousing stimulus simultaneously triggers 1)physiological responses 2)the subjective experience of emotion
Schachter-Singer conducted the two-factor theory of emotion
True
What's the Bandura's famous Bobo doll experiment most closely associated with?
Observational learning
In group discussions, when we agree with someone's opinion, our feet will unconsciously turn towards him
they are usually so focused on controlling their facial expressions and upper body positioning that important clues are revealed via the feet.
Deindividuation
the loss of self-awareness and self-restraints in the groups
What is Taste Aversion and who create it?
Eating certain types of food can cause a bad reaction.(John Garcia)
Group Polarization is when a group makes a decision that is contrary to the initial inclination of its members
False
(more extreme, not the opposite)
Does communicating our goals to others help achieve them?
False
(Because it chemically satisfies the brain and that's similar to completing it.)
You have just 7 seconds to make a good first impression
90% of a first impression is based on appearance, posture, facial expressions, and tone of voice. ( Marianne LaFrance)
Group polarization
the tendency for a group to make decisions that are more extreme than the initial inclination of its members.
The Bo Bo Doll
Children are able to learn through the observation of adult behavior.
Deindividuation believes that people will do things in groups they otherwise would not because they feel less responsible for their actions and less like an individual.
True
Are We Born With Knowledge?
Yes
(when tease children, they will smile back)
When you try to remember a past event, you're actually remembering the last time you remembered it rather than the event itself
Brain Distorts Memories Every Time It Recalls Them
