Classical Conditioning | |
Operant Conditioning | learners behavior becomes either more or less probable depending on the consequences it produces |
Positive Reinforcement | is a desirable event that, when introduced following a behavior, makes that behavior more probable |
Negative Reinforcement | occurs when a behavioral tendency is strengthened because womthing unpleasant or undesirable is removed from the situation, or is escaped or avoided, after the behavior occurs |
Punishment | |
Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development | Sensorimotor Proportional Concrete Operations Formal Operations |
Sensorimotor (birth-2) | ~ infants use their sense and motor actions to explore and understand the world ~ develop increasingly "intelligent" actions ~ are capable of symbolic thought using images or words, plan solutions to problems mentally |
Preoperational (2-7) | ~ preschoolers use their capacity for symbolic though to develop language, engage in pretend play, and solve problems ~ thinking is not logical ~ egocentric and easily fooled by perceptions ~ failing conservation test |
Concrete Operations (7-11) | ~ school-aged children acquire concrete logical operations that allow them to mentally classify, add, and otherwise act on cornet objects in head ~ solve practical, real-world problems but cannot rely on logical operations |
Formal Operations (11-12) | ~ adolescents can think about abstract concepts and purely hypothetical possibilities and can trace the long-range consequences of possible actions ~ can form hypotheses and systematically test them using the scientific method |
Freud’s Psychosexaul Stages | Oral Stage Anal Stage Phallic Stage Latent Period Genital Stage |
Oral Stage (birth-1) | ~ libido is focused on the mouth as a source of pleasure ~ obtaining oral gratification from mother figure is critical to later development |
Anal Stage (1-3) | ~ libido is focused on the anus, and toilet training creates conflict between child's biological urges and the society demands |
Phallic Stage (3-6) | ~ libido center on the genitals ~ resolution of the Oedipus or the Electra complex results in identification with the same-sex parent and development of the superego |
Latent Period (6-12) | ~ libido is quiet; psychic energy is invested in schoolwork and plays with same-sex friends |
Genital Stage (12-older) | ~ puberty reawakens the sexual instincts as youth seek to establish mature sexual relationships and pursue the biological goal of reproduction |
Observational Learning | simply learning by observing the behavior of other people |
Vicarious Reinforcement | a processes in which learners become more or less likely to perform a behavior based on whether consequences experienced by the model they observe are reinforcing or punishing |
Latent Learning | in which learning occurs but is not evident in behavior, children can learn from observational even though they do not imitate the learned responses |
