- 1Expert Blind Spottfw you know the answer so now when asked how you got it and pretend to solve it for the first time you can't
- 2Barnum Effectsomething meant for everyone!!
generalization is me!!! - 3Evolution of PsychologyStructuralism --> Functionalism --> Behaviorism --> Cognitive Revolution
- 4Institutional Review Boardsthe ones that approve standards of an experiment
- 5Why is testing ourselves so good for our memories?Retrieval == memory modifier;
testing strengthens retrieval - 6Retrograde vs Anterograde Amnesiacan't remember things from past
vs
can't remember new things - 7Broca's vs Wernick's Aphasiadifficult to talk vs nonsensical speech
- 8Which side of the brain controls which side of your body?Contralateral organization:
Left brain controls right; right brain controls left; left brain is speech-based while right brain can draw - 9Bottom Up Processing vs Top Down Processingprocessing based on physical features of stimulus from basic to complex
vs
past exp shape the interpretation of sensory info (context) - 10Transductionsensation --> perception
- 11Weber's Lawto be conceived as different, the intensity of two stimuli must vary by a constant proportion aka as intensity increases the less sensitive to change
- 12Cones vs Rodscones = in retina (look directly); color and detail sensitivity
rods = periphery; high sensitivity in dim light - 13Young-Helmholtz Trichromatic Color Theorythree types of cones: red-orange, y-g, b-v
- 14Opponent Process Theorythree sets of retinal processes: r/g, y/b, w/black
- 15Gestalt PrinciplesFigure Ground (foreground vs bkgd)
Grouping (continuation + similarity)
Closure (connect things that aren't there)
Common Fate - 16Monocular Cuesthings that help us perceive depth using one eye
ex: height, size, light/shadow, linear perspective - 17Prosopagnosiaface blindness
- 18Achromatopsiainability to perceive color despite having functional eye
- 19Classical Conditioning; the three steps and stimuli?acquisition: neutral stim (smth that should not have caused reaction) + uncond. stim (ie food) = uncond reaction (salivating)
extinction: cond. stim + no food === no uncond reaction
can have spontaneous recovery - 20Generalization vs Discriminationsimilar stimuli can elicit same response vs ability to tell diff between similar but distinct stimuli
- 21Classical vs Operant Conditioningreactive behaviors vs voluntary behavior through interaction w environment
- 22Thorndike's Law of Effect and the 4 kinds (reinforcement or punishment)positive reinforcement: adding good thing
negative reinforcement: removing bad thing
positive punishment: adding bad thing
negative punishment: removing good thing - 23What type of reinforcement is the strongest? (fixed/variable and interval (time) /ratio (amount))variable ratio is most resistant to extinction (ie gambling problem: reward after a random amount of behaviors
- 24Critical lures and their effects?can cause fake memories when presented with words that relate to something but never mention it
- 25schemasorganized knowledge of structures or mental models stored in memory
- 26Declarative vs Non Declarative Memoryexplicit vs implicit
verbally vs behaviorally
conscious awareness vs conditioning - 27Declarative: episodic vs semanticsdiscrete events, prospective memory, personally experienced
vs
facts, general knowledge - 28Flashbulb Memorymemories that are vivid and are seared in your mind even if you don't want them to; can be altered
- 29Hind BrainCerebellum (motor skills)
Medulla (heart rate, circulation)
Reticular Formation (sleep)
Pons (connects brain step to brain) - 30Subcortical StructuresLimbic system: hypothalamus (emotions), pituitary (motivation), hippocampus (memory)
Basal Ganglia: intentional movement - 31Brain LobesOccipital (visual)
Parietal (sensory)
Frontal (speaking + decisions)
Temporal (auditory + language)
