APPROACHES
ORIGINS OF PSYCHOLOGY:

WUDNT-> Conducted first ever lab study dedicated to psychological
research, this marked the beginning of scientific psychology. Attempted to
study the mind in a controlled and scientific environment. Wundt used
standardised procedures to enable replication to be achievable.

INTROSPECTION-> First systematic experimental attempt to study the
mind by breaking up conscious awareness into basic structures of
thoughts, images, sensations (structuralism).

EMERGANCE OF PSYCHOLOGY AS A SCIENCE->

1900- Behaviourist= rejected introspection as it wasn’t scientific enough
(argued you should be able to observe and measure the mind)

1950- Cognitive= used scientific procedures to study mental processes
(linked mind to a computer e.g. MSM)

1990- Biological= introduced technological advances (FMRI, EEG)

AO3 FOR ORIGINS ON PSYCHOLOGY: Scientific (used labs), subjective data
(Wundt got ppts to self-report their mental processes), research in modern
psychology can claim to be scientific (learning approaches, cognitive and
biological rely on scientific methos such as lab studies).

, 1- LEARNING APPROACH: BEHAVIOURIST APPROACH:

ASSUMPTIONS:

· Focuses on observable and measurable behaviour.

· Use of lab studies to maintain control and objectivity.

· Use non-human animals as believe basic structures that govern
learning are the same in all species.

· 2 important forms of learning: classical conditioning, operant
conditioning.

CLASSICAL CONDITIONING-> Behaviour is learnt through association.
Pavlov’s dogs:

UCS (food)-> UCR (salivation)

NS (bell)-> NR (no response)

UCS + NS-> UCR

CS (bell)-> CR (salivation)

OPERANT CONDITIONING-> Behaviour is shaped and maintained by its
consequences. Skinners rats: (reinforcement- increase likelihood of
behaviour being repeated, punishment- decreases)

· Positive reinforcement-> receiving a reward when behaviour is
performed (e.g. Skinners rats= pressed lever and rewarded with food)
Negative reinforcement-> behaviour is produced which avoids something
unpleasant (e.g. Skinners rats= pressed lever and avoids an electric
shock)

· Punishment-> unpleasant consequence of behaviour

AO3: Practical applications (systematic desensitisation is based off of
classical conditioning), deterministic approach (claims behaviour is learnt
through stimuli-response actions- doesn’t consider the role free-will has on
behaviour), questions generalisability to humans (animal studies)
