Adrenaline
reinforcement
The three memory stores are:
Sensory, STM, LTM
This refers to when the same group of people participate in both conditions.

In Lazarus and Folkman's model, the INITIAL appraisals in the primary appraisal are
Irrelevant, Benign Positive, Stressful
Attention
Retention
Reproduction
Motivation
Reinforcement
Constructing sentences (or phrases) using the first letters of the information to be remembered is known as:
Acrostic
This term relates to when we know that our measurement tools measured what was intended and we can now apply the results to the wider population.
External Validity
The somatic nervous system is in charge of:
Voluntary movements OR (sensory and motor information)
In Lazarus & Folkaman's Primary appraisal, once the situation has been identified as stressful, the three appraisals to choose from are:
Harm / Loss, Threat, Challenge
Negative reinforcement involves
(key terms must be used)
REMOVING, something UNDESIRABLE (or similar) to INCREASE / STRENGTHEN behaviour
Identify the duration of all memory stores including:
Echoic
Iconic
STM
LTM
Echoic = 3-4 seconds
Iconic = 1/3 second (0.2-0.4)
STM = UP TO 30 seconds OR 18-20 seconds
LTM = POTENTIALLY permanent
A. This term relates to when we get the same or similar results when we conduct the experiment under changed conditions.
B. This term relates to when we get the same or similar results when we conduct the experiment under the same conditions
A. Reproducibility
B. Repeatability
The nerve fibre connecting the gut and the brain is called the ______________ and is responsible for __________________ communication between the brain and gut
Vagus Nerve
Bidirectional
A. This relates to someone's ability to change/modify their coping strategy to suit the specific situation.
B. The two types of coping strategies are
A. Context specific effectiveness.
NOTE - (The mention of 'suit the specific situation makes it more relevant to context specific effectiveness than coping flexibility)
B. Approach & Avoidance
