misinformation effect correct answers incorporating misleading information into one's memory
of an event
dual-coding effect correct answers both visual and verbal information is used to represent
information
state dependency effect correct answers memory retrieval is most efficient when an individual is
in the same state of consciousness as they were when the memory was formed
spreading activation theory correct answers the theory that the presentation of a stimulus triggers
activation of closely related nodes (semantically/associatively related)
conservation (piaget) correct answers awareness that physical quantities remain constant in spite
of changes in their shape or appearance
-concrete operational
-7 to 11/12 yrs old
trait theory correct answers A theory of personality that focuses on identifying, describing, and
measuring individual differences in behavioral predispositions
conditioned stimuli correct answers Stimulus that begins to elicit a particular response through
classical conditioning
-there is some association via cues
Reticular Activating System correct answers the part of the brain that is involved in attention,
sleep, and arousal
autonomic nervous system correct answers A subdivision of the peripheral nervous system.
Controls involuntary activity of visceral muscles and internal organs and glands
-interoceptive awareness is described as increased sensitivity to internal bodily sensations, such
as heartbeat and blood pressure, which are regulated by the autonomic nervous system
cognitive process correct answers changes in an individual's thought, intelligence, and language
-interpreting bodily sensations as signs of imminent death or loss of control
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?
A.Choroid
B.Cornea
C.Lens
D.Retina correct answers The answer to this question is B because the cornea is in direct contact
with the eyelid and is thus most susceptible to damage from flaking skin.
, Sound-induced vibrations depolarize hair cells of the cochlea by opening ion channels that are
gated in what way?
A.Chemically
B.Mechanically
C.Electrically
D.Synaptically correct answers The answer to this question is B because hair cells of the cochlea
are specialized mechanoreceptors.
actor-observer bias correct answers the tendency to attribute one's own behavior to situational
factors but to attribute the behavior of others to dispositional factors
In a study, each trial involves administering a drop of lemon juice to the participant's tongue and
measuring the participant's level of salivation. As more trials are conducted, the researcher finds
that the magnitude of salivation declines. After a certain point, the researcher switches to
administering lime juice. This researcher is most likely studying which process?
A.Sensory perception
B.Habituation and dishabituation
C.Stimulus generalization in classical conditioning
D.Conditioned responses in classical conditioning correct answers The answer to this question is
B because the study involves reduced responding to a repeating stimulus, which is best described
as habituation. The researcher then changes the stimulus, which will likely lead to dishabituation.
habituation correct answers decreasing responsiveness with repeated stimulation. As infants gain
familiarity with repeated exposure to a visual stimulus, their interest wanes and they look away
sooner.
Dishabituation correct answers recovery of a habituated response after a change in stimulation
optimal arousal theory correct answers A theory of motivation stating that people are motivated
to behave in ways that maintain what is, for them, an optimal level of arousal
-optimal performance requires optimal arousal and that arousal levels that are too high or too low
will impede performance.
Which measure would be most useful if the researchers were interested in the degree of
sympathetic arousal?
A.A measure of electrical conductivity of the skin
B.A CT scan of the hindbrain
C.A PET scan of the parietal cortex
D.A measure of melatonin levels correct answers The answer to this question is A because
increased electrical conductivity of the skin is a physiological indication of increased
sympathetic arousal, which is associated with anxiety.
