- sheet 5 mock revision
- Outline the SLT approach
- learning through observation
- imitation
- modelling
- vicarious reinforcement
- mediational processes
- attention
- retention
- reproduction
- motivation
- Bandura
- Evaluate the SLT approach
- Observation controlled, allows for replication, scientific
- However, controlled lab means it will lack ecological validity, Bandura
- Develops the behaviourism approach, mediational processes allow for not just the environment to be a factor. Better explanatory power
- is therefore more interactionist
- Reductionism is at it's highest level. Reduces the explanation of social factors but not exclusively allows for other approaches to work along side it e.g biological, aggression
- Observation controlled, allows for replication, scientific
- Explain Wundt's contribution to psychology as a science
- 1. focus on being objective
- 2. reflection on sensations feelings and images
- 3. longer reaction times mean there are more processes involved
- 4. use of everyday objects e.g metronome to focus on inner throughts and break them down
- 5. still used in therapy today
- 1. focus on being objective
- What is the difference between a volunteer and an opportunity sample
- V= where participants volunteer to partake in the experiment when it is advertised e.g on a poster
- O= the closest available participants to you, e.g people walking down the street
- What are the two drugs used to treat OCD?
- SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)
- Benzodiazepin-es e.g GABA
- Name and outline a therapy used to treat phobias
- systematic desensitisation
- 1. build a hierarchy
- 2. relaxation techniques
- 3. do the hierarchy in vivo or in vitro
- Counter conditioning
- 4. extinction of phobias
- Outline the biological cause of OCD
- 1. loop is faulty
- 2. Pre frontal cortex sends strong signals
- 3. Basal Ganglia fails to filter these signals
- 4. Thalamus becomes overactive
- 5. sends too strong signals back to the prefrontal cortex, increasing repetetive behaviours
- What are the measures of central tendency and dispersion
- central tendency
- mean, median, mode
- dispersion
- range, standard deviation
- central tendency
- Outline the SLT approach
