- 2Rosenhan and Seligman (1989)Failure to function adequately
They proposed signs that suggested someone wasn't functioning adequately:
when a personal doesn't conform to interpersonal rules, experiences severe personal distress, and their behaviour becomes harmful. - 3Jahoda (1958)Deviation from ideal mental health
She proposed that abnormality was when a person deviated from her 8 ideals for mental health, such as no symptoms of distress, self-actualisation, rationality, coping with stress, and a realistic view of the world. - 4Hobbart (1960)The two-process model as an explanation of phobias.
Hobbart suggested we acquired phobias through classical conditioning and maintained them through operant conditioning - 5Watson and Rayner (1920)Acquisition of phobias via classical conditioning.
W+R studied a boy called Little Albert, and used classical conditioning of associating a white rat with a loud bang to make LA acquire a phobia of white rats and similar objects. - 6Bounton (2007)Criticism of two-process model
Bounton pointed out that evolutionary factors also play a role in phobias, but aren't mentioned in the two-process model (e.g. fear of snakes due to survival instinct of ancestors is passed down generations) - 7Seligman (1971)Biological preparedness
Seligman suggested that people have an innate predisposition towards certain phobic stimuli, such as dangerous animals.
