Define empiricism.

Ξ -:- This is the belief that all knowlwdge is derived from sensory experience, rather

that being innate. This is characterised by the use of the experimental scientific method in

psychology.



Contrast the behavioural and biological approaches.

Ξ -:- - Behaviourists believe all behaviour is learned through your environment

(through classical and operant conditioning) whereas biological psychology theorises that

behaviour is determined by genes, hormones and neurochemistry.

- Behaviourists take the side of nurture while biological psychologists favour nurture.

- Both are reductionist as they only focus on either environment or biology, rather than taking a
more holistic approach and considering psychodynamic explanations, for

example.

- Both have informed effective treatment methods, for example Classical conditioning has been
applied to systematic desensitisation, and this has been helpful in helping people deal with phobias,
while many medications have been developed to treat a whole range of mental illnesses.



Define schema.

Ξ -:- This is a mental framework of beliefs and expect that influence cognitive

processing. Schemas contain our understanding of an object, a person or an idea. Schemas

become increasingly complex during development as we gain more information about each

object/idea.



Which approaches are on the side of nature in the nature/nurture debate?

Ξ -:- - Biological

- Psychodynamic (stance is a compromise between nature and nurture)
