Compared to the simultaneous condition, the serial condition of the experiment would be more
likely to cause: correct answers a primacy effect.
The researchers change the procedure such that instead of placing the objects in a box, the
participants have to recall all the objects that they have seen during training. According to the
spreading of activation theory, which type of memory error is most likely? correct answers
Recalling objects that were not presented but are from the same category as the training objects
The findings described in the passage suggest that memory for locations: correct answers is
influenced by categorical knowledge.
The results showed that categorical bias was observed in adults.
The children from the experiment in the passage participate in a separate study using Piaget's
water conservation task. They are shown two identical beakers, containing equal amounts of
water. The water from one of the containers is poured into a thinner and taller beaker. Which
prediction is most likely to be confirmed? correct answers The majority of the 11-year-olds will
state that the amount of water in the taller beaker is the same as in the original beaker.
The vast majority of the 11-year-olds will have entered the concrete operational stage. Thus, they
will be able to judge that pouring water into the taller beaker does not change its quantity.
Maintenance Factor 1 is most closely related to which approach to psychological disorders?
correct answers Behaviorist.
Maintenance Factor 1 focuses on the role of classical conditioning, which is closely related to the
behaviorist approach.
Specifically, patients with high interoceptive awareness are likely to associate mild changes in
bodily sensations (such as slightly heightened heartbeat) with the panic they experienced during
panic attacks; this leads to conditioned fear in response to changes in bodily sensations
(Maintenance Factor 1).
According to Maintenance Factor 1, mild changes in bodily sensations act as: correct answers
conditioned stimuli.
According to Maintenance Factor 1, mild changes in bodily sensations become cues that are
associated with excessive panic. Those mild changes in bodily sensations become conditioned
stimuli, which come to elicit the conditioned fear response.
Positive punishment refers to the DECREASE in the frequency of a response resulting from the
INTRODUCTION of an aversive stimulus following that response. The patient describes the
, panic attacks as highly aversive and mentions that he no longer goes to meetings for fear of a
panic attack.
Because the frequency of the patient's attendance at meetings has DECREASED as the result of
the panic attacks, the panic attacks have acted as positive punishers.
negative punishment correct answers the removal of a stimulus to decrease the probability of a
behavior's recurring
negative reinforcement correct answers Increasing behaviors by stopping or reducing negative
stimuli, such as shock. A negative reinforcer is any stimulus that, when removed after a
response, strengthens the response. (Note: negative reinforcement is not punishment.)
positive reinforcement correct answers Increasing behaviors by presenting positive stimuli, such
as food. A positive reinforcer is any stimulus that, when presented after a response, strengthens
the response.
Interoceptive awareness involves sensitivity to increases in the activity of the: correct answers
autonomic nervous system.
Interoceptive awareness is described as increased sensitivity to internal bodily sensations, such
as heartbeat and blood pressure. These functions are regulated by the autonomic nervous system.
Which two processes best summarize maintenance factors 1 and 2, respectively? correct answers
Classical conditioning and cognitive processes.
Maintenance Factor 1 focuses on classical conditioning of a fear response to bodily sensations,
whereas Maintenance Factor 2 focuses on cognitive appraisal (interpretation) of bodily
sensations.
Data on the role of Maintenance Factor 1 on PD is LEAST likely to come from which type of
research? correct answers Experimental studies.
It would be extremely difficult to systematically manipulate participants' physiological states and
their sensitivity to changes in those states. In addition, random assignment to various conditions
involving maintenance of PD would pose insurmountable ethical restrictions.
affective correct answers relating to the emotions
Harlequin ichthyosis, a rare genetic disorder, causes the skin to become thick and scaly. Flaking
skin behind the eyelids of individuals with this condition is most likely to damage which
structure of the eye? correct answers Cornea.
Sound-induced vibrations depolarize hair cells of the cochlea by opening ion channels that are
gated in what way? correct answers Mechanically.
