Outline and evaluate the behavioural approach to psychopathology. (12 marks) Behaviourists believe that all of a person’s complex behaviours are the result of learning through interaction with the environment. Behaviourists deal with the following forms of learning: classical conditioning and operant conditioning. In classical conditioning people learn to associate two stimuli when they occur together‚ such that the response originally elicited by one stimulus is transferred to another. The person

Learning Theories When we talk of learning we usually think of something related to the classroom‚ such as English or Maths. However‚ Psychologists refer to learning as a relatively permanent change in behaviour as a result of experience’. Learning is a fundamental process in all animals and the higher up the evolutionary scale the animal‚ the more important is the ability to learn. All animals need to adapt their behaviour in order to fit in with the environment and to adapt to changing circumstances

Beam Chopping corrects for flame emission but not for scattering. Can distinguish the signal of the flame from the atomic line at the same wavelength. The higher the absorbance the higher the transmittance.

Limitations to classic conditioning as a theory Harry Harlow’s Rhesus Monkey is a experiment that took place in the 1950s were he tested classical conditioning as a theory. He separated infant monkeys from their mothers a few hours after birth‚ then arranged for the young animals to be raised by two kinds of surrogate monkey mother machines‚ both equipped to dispense milk. One mother was made out of bare wire mesh. The other was a wire mother covered with soft terry cloth. Harlow’s first observation

However‚ you know deep inside your heart you are more than just de-conditioned. For three months in seventh grade I didn’t attend school. I didn’t see my friends. I could barely get myself up and out of bed for more than a couple minutes at a time. I worked to be able to go back. Practicing things as simple as standing up or walking. Things were never back to “normal”

Air Conditioning and Global Warming Air conditioning systems use energy to remove heat from a given location‚ transferring it to the exterior in the form of exhaust. Some of the energy is invariably wasted as heat‚ and this additional heat must also be exhausted. Thus‚ air conditioning results in net heat release to the environment. The warming effect is aggravated‚ moreover‚ because higher forms of energy such as electricity are used to power air conditioners. Generating and transmitting this

Classical Conditioning: Pavlov’s Dogs Ivan Pavlov‚ PsyD Saint Petersburg State University Abstract During the 1980’s a Russian psychologist‚ Ivan Pavlov used some dogs which he attached to a device to hold it in place.
