Where in consciousness does id reside?
- Preconscious
- Conscious
- Unconscious
- It varies throughout life
- None of the above - ANSWER>>Unconscious
According to Freudian theory, the primitive urges of the id are located in our
unconscious, hidden from our overt understanding.
Who suggested that we develop in a healthy fashion by confronting and resolving
developmental crises in our lives?
- Karen Horney
- Erik Erikson
- Sigmund Freud
- Alfred Adler
- Donald Winnicott - ANSWER>>Erik Erikson
Erik Erikson suggested that development proceeds in a healthy fashion as we
confront and resolve developmental crises, with the most serious termed
"identity crises."
,Applications of learning theory to help children overcome behavior disorders or
cope with adjustment problems is often referred to as ...
- psychology of adjustment
- behavior modification
- classical conditioning
- sensitization learning
- information processing model - ANSWER>>behavior modification
Behavior modification involves an individualied, structured application of learning
theory, which may incorporate approaches such as sensitization learning, operant
or classical conditioning.
Who introduced the concept of reinforcement into behaviorism?
- Freud
- Chomsky
- Watson
- Piaget
- Skinner - ANSWER>>Skinner
The late B.F. Skinner introduced the concept of reinforcement into behaviorism.
This would prove central to operant conditioning, in which learning takes place
due to some form of behavioral reinforcement.
Social cognitive theorists such as Albert Bandura suggest ...
- children cannot learn with the use of reinforcement and punishment
- children cannot learn unless they are given hands-on practice with what is to be
learned
,- children learn much of what they know through observation
- children are a "blank slate."
- None of these - ANSWER>>children learn much of what they learn through
observation
Social cognitive theorists such as Albert Bandura would argue that children learn
much of what they know through observation of others (i.e., "modeling" or
"observational learning")
Reciprocal determinisn is...
- the mechanical process of conditioning by which children learn new things
- a child's attempt to use assimilation and accomodation to learn
- the interplay of heredity and genetics to achieve knowledge
- the mutual interplay of behavior, cognitive characteristics and the environment
- None of these - ANSWER>>the mutual interplay of behavior, cognitive
characteristics and the environment
According to Bandura, knowledge is shaped by the mutual interplay of behavior,
cognitive ability, and environmental effects. This phenomenon is known as
reciprocal determinism.
Piaget saw children as ...
- scientists
- ignorant
- as reactive to the environment
- largely irrational
- miniature adults - ANSWER>>as reactive to the environment
, Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget saw children as reacting to environmental stimuli
in order to create novel mental representations and schemas.
Which of the following would a cognitive theorist be the MOST likely to study ....
- How children confront and resulve developmental crises in their lives
- How id, ego, and superego work together to form a healthy personality
- How patterns of reinforcement and punishment prompt learning
- How children perceive and mentally represent the world.
- How children strive to act in an "innately good" manner. - ANSWER>>How
children perceive and mentally represent the world.
Cognitive theorists, interested in information processing, storage, and retrieval
would study how children perceive (process) and mentally represent (store) the
world through series of schemas, imagery, and cognitive maps.
According to information processing views ...
- typing on the keyboard is like our short-term memory
- placing information in a compyter's RAM (working) memory is like short-term
memory
- storing something to a hard drive is like long-term memory
- typing a password is like generating a memory retrieval code
- All of these - ANSWER>>All of these
Information processing theory would incorporate all of these comparisons of
human cognition and memory to the funcitoning of a computer.
