3The debated that states either we are born with certain knowledge or we have to learn everything is the _______.

5Structuralism states that everything in consciousness can be broken down into _________ and _________.
- Athoughts and desires
- Bdesires and feelings

- AStructuralism
- BFunctionalism
- CPsychoanalysis
- DBehaviorism
7Theory or idea that emphasized the influence of the unconscious mind on behavior.
- APsychoanalysis
- BBehaviorism
- CStructuralism
- DFunctionalism
8Sigmund Freud believed.....
- Athat the conscious and unconscious mind must be analyzed before effective treatments can begin, that dreams offer insight into the unconscious world, and that many behaviors are a result of unconscious motivations
- Bthat the mind should not be studied, that you can only observe behaviors, and that the mind and body are not connected
- Cthat the mind and body are the same, that we are born with certain knowledge, and that experience affects brain development
9Childhood experiences play a larger role later in life. Experience affects brain development.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
10Functionalism states that the mind should not be studied. The only thing that can be studied is observable behaviors.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
11When you stop responding to an event that has become familiar. (Ex: The tornado sirens that go off every Wednesday at 12pm)
- AHabituation
- BSensitization
- CFirst Person Shooter Syndrome
12When you respond more often to an intense event that has been repeated. (Ex: when you don't feel a cut until you see it then it starts to hurt)
- Asensitization

13A procedure in which paring in a neutral stimulus with a stimulus that elicits a response causes the neutral stimulus to elicit that response.
- Aclassical conditioning
- Boperant conditioning
- Cone-trial conditioning
14The gradual weakening and disappearance of conditioned behavior. (ex: Little Albert reversal)
- AExtinction
- BSpontaneous Recovery
- COne-trial Conditioning
- DTaste Aversion
15Pavlov's Dog Experiment: 1. Before Conditioning- the food is the unconditioned stimulus and the dog's salivation is the unconditioned response. 2. Before conditioning- tuning fork is the neutral stimulus which causes the no conditioned response from the dog. 3. During Conditioning- the tuning for and the food is presented and causes the unconditioned response. 4. After Conditioning- the turning fork is now the conditioned stimulus and is presented to cause the conditioned response (salivation).
- AClassical Conditioning
