- Sheet 8 revision
- How would behaviourists say phobias are treated
- Counter conditioning
- Build a hierarchy
- Relaxation techniques
- Applied to the most feared situations through direct or indirect exposure
- Do the hierarchy
- In vivo or in vitro
- Extinction
- Evaluation of how behaviourists would say phobias are treated
- Practical application, systematic desensitisation/flooding to counter condition phobia
- Only considers nurture as the important side of the debate. Not a full understanding of interactionsim
- Experiment conducted on animals, can't extrapolate results to humans
- Environmentally determinist
- Can make clear predictions e.g little Albert
- Lacks an understanding of an intractionist approach as to how phobias develop
- Why is qualitative data better than quantitative data
- Qual= depth and helps to understand the full implications of the results Quan= broad general points of research
- What is statistical infrequency. Give a strength and a weakness
- A behaviour is seen as abnormal if it is statistically infrequent
- A useful overview, objective
- Inflexible, no consideration of cultural differences, abnormal behaviours can occur frequently
- What is standard deviation and what does it tell you about your results. Why is it better than the range
- Scores around the mean of distribution
- how much a measure of scores is dispersed around the average of variability
- the range can be influenced by abnormalities, unlike standard deviation which allows for inferences to be made
- Scores around the mean of distribution
- What is matched pairs
- An effort is made to match participants based on important characteristics
- Age
- Gender
- IQ
- All can affect performance
- One member of each matched pair must be randomly assigned to the experimental or control group
- An effort is made to match participants based on important characteristics
- How would words in a list be standardised in an experiment
- word length the same
- number of words the same
- same paper
- same print
- same complexity of words
- What is the difference between an overt and a covert observation
- overt is where the participants know they're being observed
- covert is where the participants dont know they're being observed
- How would behaviourists say phobias are treated
