<br />
In ________________________________, individuals learn through ________________ others who receive rewards and punishments.<br />
<br />
The Most Famous
Classical Conditioning
Experiment<br />
<br />
Ideas of classical conditioning originate from old philosophical theories. However, it was the ________________________________ who elucidated classical conditioning. His work provided a basis for later behaviorists like ________________.<br />
<br />
Let’s Take a Look at
Classical Conditioning<br />
Pavlov’s Discovery of Classical Conditioning (3:08)<br />

<br />
Easier Ways to Remember
New Terms<br />
“________________” = ________________<br />
“________________” = ________________/innate<br />
“________________” = Learned<br />
<br />
“Stimulus” = ________________<br />
<br />
“Neutral” = Not causing or reflecting ________________<br />
<br />
Pavlov’s Experiments<br />
Famous Classical Conditioning Experiment: Little Albert<br />

Classical Conditioning Group Discussion:
<br />
Identify the:<br />
Unconditioned Stimulus (US)<br />
Unconditioned Response (UR)<br />
Conditioned Stimulus (CS)<br />
Conditioned Response (CR)<br />
1) It is springtime and the pollen from the flowers causes you to sneeze. Soon you are sneezing every time you see a flower.<br />
2) The sight of food makes you hungry. Soon every time you go into the kitchen, you feel hungry.<br />
3) Every time you take a shower, someone in the house flushes the toilet causing the water to turn cold and you to become cold. Now every time you hear a toilet flush, you get cold. <br />

One of the largest contributions to our understanding of Operant Conditioning:
________________ Operant Chamber<br />
Skinner developed the Operant chamber, or the ________________, to study operant conditioning.<br />
Operant Chamber<br />
The operant chamber, or Skinner box, comes with a bar or key ________________________________________________ like food or water. The bar or key is connected to devices that record the ________________.<br />
<br />
Shaping: One type of
Operant Conditioning<br />
<br />
________________ the operant conditioning procedure in which reinforcers guide behavior towards the desired target behavior through ________________________________.<br />
<br />
Operant Conditioning Involves Reinforcers<br />
<br />
Reinforcement: Any event that ________________ the behavior ________________. <br />
Remember that a positive reinforcer ________________ something<br />
<br />
Negative reinforcers ________________ something.<br />
Negative Reinforcement Exercise<br />
Identify the aversive (unpleasant) stimulus and the behavior being strengthened by its removal.<br />
<br />
1. Taking aspirin to relieve a headache.<br />
2. Hurrying home in the winter to get out of the cold.<br />
3. Giving in to a dog’s begging.<br />
4. Fanning oneself to escape the heat.<br />
5. Leaving a movie theater if the movie is bad.<br />

9. Putting on a car safety belt to stop an irritating buzz.<br />
10. Turning down the volume of a very loud radio.<br />
11. Putting up an umbrella to escape the rain.<br />
<br />
Other types of reinforcers include:
Primary & Conditioned Reinforcers<br />
________________ Reinforcer: An innately reinforcing stimulus like ________________.<br />
<br />
________________ Reinforcer: A ________________that gets its reinforcing power through association with the primary reinforcer.<br />
Punishment <br />
Results in ________________.<br />
Justifies ________________________________.<br />
Causes ________________ to reappear in its absence.<br />
Causes ________________ towards the agent.<br />
Causes one unwanted behavior to appear in ____________________________.<br />
<br />
<br />
In children, ________________________________________________ the occurrence of these behaviors. <br />
<br />
Operant Conditioning Applied To Your Life:
________________________________________________
<br />
Identify a behavior that you want to either increase or decrease in your life.<br />
How will you measure your progress on this behavior?<br />
What are some positive reinforcers you can provide yourself to change the behavior? On what schedule will you administer these reinforcers?<br />
How will you monitor and record your progress toward changing the behavior?<br />
<br />
Observational Learning<br />
Learning by ________________<br />
Higher animals, especially humans, learn through ________________________________ others.<br />
<br />
The monkey on the right ________________ the monkey on the left in touching the pictures in a certain order to obtain a reward.<br />
Mirror Neurons<br />
Neuroscientists discovered ________________ in the brains of animals and humans that are active during observational learning. <br />
When a monkey ________________ such as grasping, holding or tearing, these neurons fire. But they also fire when the ________________ another monkey performing the same task. <br />
Imitation Onset<br />
Learning by observation begins early in life. This ________________ the adult on TV in pulling a toy apart.<br />
<br />
Bandura's Experiments<br />
Bandura's________________ (1961) indicated that individuals (children) learn through imitating others who receive ________________________________.<br />
<br />
Applications of Observational Learning<br />
Unfortunately, Bandura’s studies show that antisocial models (family, neighborhood or TV) may have ________________________________.<br />
<br />
Positive Observational Learning<br />
Fortunately, ________________________________ models may have prosocial effects.<br />
Television and Observational Learning<br />
Gentile et al., (2004) shows that children in elementary school who are exposed to violent television, videos, and video games express ________________ aggression.<br />
<br />
Modeling Violence<br />
Research shows that viewing media violence ________________________________ of aggression.<br />

<br />
<br />
How did you respond to being punished? What actions did you have towards your punisher. <br />
<br />
We discussed Operant Conditioning, where learning occurs from the consequences of your behavior. Think of a time you learned an important lesson (family, friends, work, or academic), and you were positive reinforced (rewarded). What was the positive reinforcement? Discuss what you learned, and if/how the positive reinforcement (increased your likelihood of applying your lesson in the future). <br />

Think of a time when you experienced negative reinforcement (your behavior is reinforced by removing a negative event). What was the negative reinforcement? Share this experience with your group.<br />
<br />
Think of a time you learned through observing others (modeling). Share this experience with your group.<br />

Social Psychology Psychology 1, <br />
Chapter 15 <br />
<br />
Focuses in Social Psychology Attributing Behavior to Persons or to Situations <br />
<br />
Attribution
Theory: Fritz Heider (1958) suggested that we have a tendency to give
causal explanations for someone’s behavior, often
by______________________________________________ <br />
<br />
Attributing
Behavior to Persons or to Situations A teacher may wonder whether a
child’s hostility reflects an aggressive personality
(_______________________attribution) or is a reaction to stress or abuse
_______________________ (attribution). <br />
<br />
Fundamental
Attribution Error The tendency to
_____________________________________________________________________
the impact of the situations in analyzing the behaviors of others leads
to the fundamental attribution error. <br />
<br />
Role Playing
Affects Attitudes Zimbardo (1972) assigned the roles of guards and
prisoners to random students and found that
___________________________________________________________________
Every culture has: <br />
<br />
Social roles – Culturally determined guidelines of _______________ that is expected of people, many different _________ <br />
<br />
Social
norms – __________________ provided by every culture for judging
acceptable and unacceptable behavior (spoken and unspoken rules). <br />
<br />
Social
Influence The greatest contribution of social psychology is its study
of attitudes, beliefs, decisions, and actions and the way they are
molded by social influence. <br />
<br />
Conformity
& Obedience Behavior is contagious, modeled by one followed by
another. We follow behavior of others to ______________________ <br />
<br />
Other behaviors may be an expression of compliance (obedience) toward authority. <br />
<br />
Group Pressure &; Conformity An influence resulting from one’s willingness to accept others’ opinions about reality. <br />
<br />
Council 2 <br />
<br />
1.
List 2 social roles you play out either in your family or work. Discuss
how 1 of these impacts your behavior. Share how this social role may
influence your overall personality. <br />
<br />
2. Think about a
time when you felt pressure to conform to a social role or norm. What
was the role or norm that was expected of you? What kind of pressure did
you feel (how was it expressed)? How did you respond to it? <br />
<br />
3.
Think about a time when you realized that the image you had of yourself
changed. What changed about how you saw yourself, and what made it
change? How did your attitude toward yourself change afterward? What
about your attitude toward others? <br />
<br />
4. What are your
thoughts, do people conform on a regular/irregular basis? Are we
mindless zombies? Explain your answer. Deindividuation The loss of
______________________________________ in group situations that foster
arousal and anonymity. <br />
<br />
Groupthink A mode of thinking
that occurs when the desire for ______________ in a decision-making
group _______________________________ appraisal of alternatives. <br />
<br />
Prejudice
Simply called “prejudgment,” a prejudice is an
___________________________________________ toward a group and its
members. <br />
<br />
Prejudice is often directed towards different
cultural, ethnic, or gender groups. Reign of Prejudice Prejudice works
at the conscious and [more at] the unconscious level. Therefore,
prejudice is more like a
______________________________________________________________________ <br />
<br />
How Prejudiced are People? <br />
<br />
Over
the duration of time many prejudices against interracial marriage,
gender, homosexuality, and minorities have decreased. Racial &;
Gender Prejudice Americans today express much less racial and gender
prejudice, but prejudices still exist. Race Nine out of ten white
respondents were slow when responding to words like “peace” or
“paradise” when they saw a black individual’s photo compared to a white
individual’s photo (Hugenberg & Bodenhausen, 2003). Gender Most
women still live in more poverty than men. About 100,000,000 women are
missing in the world. There is a preference for male children in China
and India, even with sex-selected abortion outlawed. Social Roots of
Prejudice <br />
<br />
Why does prejudice arise? <br />
<br />
Social
Inequality Prejudice develops when people have money, power, and
prestige, and _______________________. _______________________________
increases prejudice. Us and <br />
<br />
Them Ingroup: People with whom one shares a _____________________________. Outgroup: <br />
Those perceived as different from one’s ingroup. <br />
<br />
Ingroup
Bias: The tendency to ________________________________ Emotional Roots
of Prejudice Prejudice provides an outlet for ____________________] by
providing someone to ___________. <br />
After 9/11 many people lashed out against innocent Arab-Americans. <br />
<br />
Council #3 <br />
1.
Think of a time you were treated based on a stereotype someone had of
your group (this can be based on your ethnicity, gender, sexuality,
religion). Explain what was said to you and how you responded. <br />
<br />
2.
How did you feel about what was said?. How did you respond? How has
this situation impacted your view on the world, others, or yourself? <br />
<br />
3.
Share a story of when you have actively, peacefully, and maturely
combated a stereotype you experienced. Describe what was said and your
approach in resolving the issue. If this question does not apply,
imagine and state how you would have responded to maturely to question
#1 and #2. <br />
<br />
4. Lets challenge society to be more
accepting by modeling accepting and loving behavior. You in? Describe
one way you can challenge one of your own stereotypes/prejudice.<br />

experiences, participate in group activities (i.e. in class assignments and council),
discussions, brainstorming, and to proactively study the material before and
after coming to class. In other words, I will clarify and teach psychological
theory, and you will teach the class about your knowledge and experiences as
you integrate your life and worldly experience with ideas learned in this
Psychology course.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

focuses on communal learning, group projects and a great deal of social interaction.
The goal is to help you develop a strong academic community as you learn useful
theories in Psychology. As your Instructor, I hope to facilitate a deeper
understanding of the world, society, culture, family, and yourself. The class
will consist of several activities that focus on use of internet, small group
discussions, class discussion and interactive exercises.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I believe learning can be a pleasurable
experience, and aim at creating a class culture that encourages this positivity.
Expect to have tons of fun while learning about Psychology, yourself and your
fellow students. </span></div>
