- Approaches
- Biological
- Evolutionary - GENES
- What we are MADE OF and how we EVOLVED
- Natural selection & gene pool
- Deterministic - genetically determined
- Individual differences
- Reductionist - emotion and thought?
- What we are MADE OF and how we EVOLVED
- Physiological (bodily activity)
- CNS (faster) brain chemistry - neurotransmitters & dopamine and serotonin
- ANS (slower) hormones & automatic responses
- Applications - therapeutic treatments
- Reductionist
- Deterministic - controlled by our genes, no will power and cannoy override signals
- Individual AND cultural differences with behaviours and treatments
- Drugs - may only treat symptoms, not underlying cause
- Evolutionary - GENES
- Behavioural -LEARN!
- Classical conditioning - association between 2 things
- Operant conditioning - reinforcement
- SLT - indirect learning , VICARIOUS learning. Past experiences, was it successful before, and consequences higher than doing it?
- Lab experiments and use of animals.
- Deterministic - explains why there are individual differences due to different experiences
- Lab experiment - scientific
- Explains cultural and individual differences
- Cognitive - THINKING, MACHINES
- Scientific - lab experiments and PET scans
- Cannot be generalised because it simplifies our behaviour
- Difficult to falsify - Hard to proove, eg memory and it may be a wrong proocess; preventing us from finding the underlying process.
- Doesnt take into account social and cultural factors nor emotional factors
- Psychodynamic - FREUD / ICEBURG
- structure of mind: conscious (ego + superego) and unconscious mind (ID)
- Psycosexual stages of develoment: oral, anal, phallic, latency, genital.
- Normally only on case studies
- Deterministic
- Reductionist
- Difficult to falsify (prove) and measure it as it's subjective
- Focuses on the unconsciour and childhood experiences
