__________________________ Date: _____________ 1. Young children typically try to stay very close to their parents when they are in an unfamiliar setting. This best illustrates the adaptive value of: A) habituation. B) conservation. C) the rooting reflex. D) attachment. E) egocentrism. 2. The branch of psychology that systematically focuses on the physical‚ mental‚ and social changes that occur throughout the life cycle is called: A) clinical psychology. B) social psychology. C) personality

rang‚ he showed the Moro reflex of his arms flaring up. His eyes got bigger as well. He follows moving lights with his eyes because I moved one of his toys with small lights back and forth about a foot from his face and his eyes would follow. He seemed to be focused on the lights and the toy. Jack turns his head in the direction of sounds as well because when his mother talked to him near the side of his face‚ he turned his head towards her. He acted out the rooting reflex when I touched his cheek

This article focuses on hyperacusis is‚ how it works‚ and the different treatment approaches based on what is currently known. Hyperacusis is defined as “ unusual tolerance to ordinary environmental sounds and‚ more pejoratively ‚ as consistently exaggerated or inappropriate responses to sounds that are neither threatening nor uncomfortable loud to a typical person‚” (Baguley 2003) I learned in class that due to cochlear hearing loss caused by the loss of outer hair cells‚ patients have a smaller

2.2 Electrical Communication Study Guide by Hisrich 2.2.a How does communication happen within the body? Electrical Signals Nervous System Chemical Signals Endocrine System The nervous system is made up of neurons. Neurons communicate just like people do‚ but they send messages using action potentials (electricity passing through their axons). Each neuron picks up signals at its dendrites‚ passes the signals down the axon‚ into the axon terminals‚ and into the synapses. The synapse

view the front of the eye. Pupillary light reflex is tested which involves shining a bright light into the eye and observing reflexive pupil constriction in the eye. The consensual pupillary reflex is observed in the eye that is not stimulated‚ but both the direct and consensual pupillary light reflexes depend on the function of a reflex arc. The reflex arc involves cells in the retina that travel through the optic chiasm and tract. Though the light reflex does not necessarily mean normal visual function

paired with another stimulus that originally elicits that response. This can also refer to a predictable sequence of events in which one responds to a first event in anticipation of the next. In classical conditioning‚ the subject learns to make a reflex response to a stimulus that is different from the original‚ natural stimulus that would normally produce that response. For classical conditioning to occur‚ several elements must be present: an unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is the naturally occurring
