The document discusses concepts related to sensation and perception including illusions, which involve misinterpretation of stimuli, and delusions, which represent abnormal beliefs. It also describes hallucinations, experiencing things that aren't real, which can be caused by conditions like schizophrenia, Parkinson's, or Alzheimer's. The types of illusions, delusions, and hallucinations are defined along with their characteristics and common causes.
Sensation is the process by which our sensory receptors and nervous system receive and represent information about our internal and external environment. There are 5 main sensory systems - vision, hearing, smell, taste and touch. Each system contains receptor cells that transduce physical stimuli into electrochemical signals to the brain. The brain then interprets these signals to form our perceptions. Sensory thresholds, adaptation and neural processing help us detect changes in our environment. Defects in these systems can impair our sensory abilities.

Here are the key stages of Kohlberg's theory of moral development in 3 sentences:
Kohlberg's theory proposes that moral reasoning develops through 6 stages, with 3 levels of moral reasoning - preconventional, conventional, and postconventional. In the preconventional level, reasoning is based on obedience to rules to avoid punishment. The conventional level focuses on maintaining social order and pleasing others. The postconventional level reasons from universal ethical principles of justice and human rights.
Developmental psychology studies changes across the lifespan. Prenatal development involves three stages: germinal, embryonic, and fetal. During the embryonic stage, major physical structures and organs form. The fetal stage lasts until birth, when growth and brain development occur. Babies are born with the capacity for all senses and reflex behaviors controlled by the spinal cord. Attachment theory holds that infants need contact comfort from caregivers for healthy social-emotional development. Piaget's theory of cognitive development describes four stages from infancy to adulthood involving changes in cognitive abilities and limitations.
Operant conditioning is a learning process that occurs through rewards and punishments for behavior. It involves pairing a behavior with a consequence. Behaviors that are followed by pleasant consequences, like praise or a reward, are likely to increase, while behaviors followed by unpleasant consequences, like punishment, tend to decrease. Key aspects of operant conditioning include reinforcement versus punishment, primary versus secondary reinforcers/punishers, and positive versus negative consequences. The document provides examples to illustrate these concepts.

Operant conditioning is a learning process that occurs through rewards and punishments for behavior. It involves pairing a behavior with a consequence.

Key aspects of operant conditioning include reinforcement versus punishment, primary versus secondary reinforcers/punishers, and positive versus negative consequences. The document provides examples to illustrate these concepts.
Classical conditioning is the process of learning associations between environmental stimuli and responses. It involves pairing a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus that elicits an unconditioned response. Through repeated pairings, the neutral stimulus takes on the properties of the unconditioned stimulus and comes to elicit the same response, which is now called the conditioned response. The neutral stimulus is now termed the conditioned stimulus. Classical conditioning involves identifying the unconditioned stimulus and response, acquiring the association through repeated pairings, checking for learning by presenting just the now conditioned stimulus, and changing the stimulus and response titles if learning has occurred. Examples are provided to demonstrate the classical conditioning process.
The standard memory model describes the process of forming a memory through three stages:
1. Sensory memory encodes events through the senses for 1-2 seconds before the information either fades or moves to short-term memory through paying attention.
2. Short-term memory holds 5-9 items for about 30 seconds before they either fade or move to long-term memory. The total time hypothesis suggests that thinking about an item over multiple sessions increases the chances it will move to long-term memory.
3. Long-term memory seemingly has unlimited capacity and can store memories forever once encoded, though retrieval is needed to determine if information was successfully consolidated into long-term memory.

Cognition involves acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses. There are two basic elements of thought: language and mental pictures. The brain organizes information into concepts, with each concept containing related mental pictures called prototypes that help with thinking about objects that are not present. When encountering new objects, the brain uses either artificial concept logic based on rules or natural concept logic comparing to prototypes to determine what concept an object belongs to. Effective problem solving involves defining the problem, generating options, deciding on the best option, planning its implementation, taking action, and evaluating the outcome. Reasoning can be inductive, making broad generalizations from specific examples, or deductive, making logical predictions from general premises.
1. The document presents 11 claims and then states that all of them are false. It emphasizes the importance of the scientific method to verify answers rather than accepting claims without evidence.
2. People's beliefs and knowledge can come from many sources like rumors, parents, friends, and experiences that are not always accurate. The scientific method helps minimize errors by standardizing steps that can be replicated.
3. The last part of the document discusses identifying problems, forming testable hypotheses, designing studies, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings to help verify answers through the scientific process.
This document provides an overview of the key concepts in psychology. It defines psychology as the scientific study of both observable behaviors and non-observable mental processes. The four main goals of psychology are to describe behaviors and mental processes, understand why they occur, predict what triggers them, and influence or change them. The document also outlines several contemporary perspectives in psychology for understanding why behaviors happen, such as biopsychology, behavioral, cognitive, social, and evolutionary approaches. It concludes by explaining that psychology analyzes phenomena at the levels of the brain, individual person, and social groups.
Classical conditioning involves forming associations between stimuli to create conditioned responses. It involves pairing an unconditioned stimulus that naturally elicits a response with a neutral stimulus until the neutral stimulus alone elicits the response.
The document defines key terms in classical conditioning like unconditioned stimulus, unconditioned response, conditioned stimulus, and conditioned response. It provides examples of how classical conditioning works and discusses concepts like stimulus discrimination, stimulus generalization, and extinction. Higher order classical conditioning is described as layering the classical conditioning process by using an existing conditioned stimulus to condition a new neutral stimulus.
Operant conditioning is introduced as involving pairing a behavior with a consequence to shape future behaviors rather than pairing two stimuli as in classical conditioning.
The document describes Robert Sternberg's triangular theory of love, which identifies seven types of love based on combinations of three components: passion, intimacy, and commitment. The seven types are: liking (intimacy only), empty love (commitment only), infatuation (passion only), companionate love (intimacy and commitment), fatuous love (passion and commitment), romantic love (passion and intimacy), and consummate love (all three components, described as the ideal type of love).
Therapists use around 400 different types of psychotherapy to treat psychological disorders. The main therapeutic approaches include psychodynamic, humanistic, cognitive behavioral, and biological therapies. Psychotherapies aim to help individuals understand and change unhealthy behaviors and thoughts by using techniques like free association, dream interpretation, exposure therapy, cognitive restructuring, and medication management. Therapists work from different theoretical perspectives to help patients improve mental health and functioning.
This document discusses abnormal psychology and defines it as actions, thoughts, and feelings that cause distress and dysfunction. It examines different perspectives on understanding abnormal behavior, such as the psychological, behavioral, neuroscience, cognitive, and group perspectives. It then discusses mood disorders like major depression and bipolar disorder. It analyzes the causes of anxiety disorders and mood disorders from psychoanalytic, behavioral, cognitive, and biological viewpoints.
This document provides an overview of different perspectives on personality including psychodynamic, trait, biological, and assessment perspectives. It summarizes Freud's psychodynamic theory including the id, ego, superego and psychosexual stages. It also describes the five-factor model of trait theory and discusses genetic influences on personality. Finally, it provides an overview of self-report and projective personality assessment methods.
Developmental psychology studies patterns of growth and changes throughout the lifespan. There are several periods of development: prenatal, infancy, childhood, adolescence, emerging adulthood, and adulthood. Prenatal development involves three stages from conception to birth. During this time, genetics, teratogens, and the environment can impact development. After birth, infants develop physically through reflexes, movement, vision, and other senses. Cognitively, Piaget's stages describe changes from sensorimotor thinking to more advanced thought. Language skills emerge through imitation. Adulthood brings physical and cognitive maturity, though changes also occur. Erikson's stages address psychosocial challenges of intimacy, generativity, and integrity in adul
The document provides an overview of the nervous system, including the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS is composed of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS has two divisions - the somatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system. The somatic division controls voluntary muscles, while the autonomic division controls involuntary functions like digestion. The document then discusses neurons, synapses, and the major structures of the brain such as the cerebrum, cerebellum, hypothalamus and their functions.
This document provides an overview of key concepts in social psychology, including compliance and conformity (examined in Solomon Asch's line judgment experiments), obedience (examined in Stanley Milgram's shock experiments), attitudes and persuasion, attribution theory, aggression, prejudice and discrimination, interpersonal attraction, types of love, and prosocial behavior. Social psychology seeks to understand how people think about and relate to one another and how social influences can affect behaviors, feelings, and thoughts.
This document discusses several concepts related to learning in psychology, including:
1. Classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a conditioned response. This is demonstrated through Pavlov's experiment with salivating dogs.
2. Operant conditioning, where behavior is reinforced or punished to increase or decrease the likelihood of that behavior occurring again. Reinforcers can be positive or negative.
3. Cognitive theories of learning emphasize thought processes between stimuli and responses. Tolman's experiments on latent learning in rats demonstrated learning that was not evident until later.
4. Insight learning involves sudden understanding of relationships that allow for rapid problem solving, as Kohler showed with tool-using

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
