<p>According to Erik Erikson, an adolescent's task is to _____.</p>

<p>describe GAS (haha) generala daptation syndrome (to stress)</p>
<p>I forsee no one answering this question, because it's kind of long :p</p>
<p>I will tomorrow, when I have more time. That is, if it isn't already answered...</p>
<p>GAS is our response pattern to various different types of stress. The first thing that happens is an alarm reaction, which involves heart rate excellerating. The second step is resistance, which is when the body maintains this alert state by releasing hormones. Too much time spent in this state may cause the body to use up all of its resources. Finally, there is exhaustion, which is when the parasympathetic nervous system kicks in. It returns our body to its normal state.</p>
<p>Explain Trace Conditioning, Backward Conditioning, Delayed Conditioning, and Simultaneous Conditioning.</p>
<p>1) Trace Conditioning is CS first then US.
2) Backward Conditioning is theleast effective and is when the US is first presentedand then the CS is paired.
3) Delayed Conditioning is the most effective type and is when the US is presented then the CS is paired a shortwhile later.
4) Simultaneous Conditioning is when US and CS is given atthe same time.</p>
<p>What is the difference between a mental model and a cognitive map?</p>

</p>
<p>It's the other way around. The CS is presented, and then the US is presented while the CS is still present. For example, you start ringing a bell, and while you're still ringing it, you present food. </p>
<p>A cognitive map is a mental representation of a place, such as a new city, etc. And, about the mental model. I couldn't find it in my psychology textbook, or in my review book. </p>
<p>Compare the Availability Heuristic, and the Representativeness Heuristic.</p>
<p>Availability Heuristic is like.. haha (barron's) ummm.. my city's worse than urs b/c I see more violence in my city than yours.</p>
<p>Representativeness Heuristic is like.. your grass must be green b/c grass is usually green.</p>
<p>oops didn't see that! thanks rockermcr, haha I was typing this in class!</p>
<p>Availability heuristic is judging a situation based on examples of similar situations that come to mind initially. </p>
<p>Representativeness heuristic is judging a situation based on how similar the aspects are to prototypes the person holds in his or her mind.</p>
<p>What is instrument conditioning and reconditioning?</p>
<p>Availability heuristic is like a rule of thumb, we make judgements based on experience. Representativeness Heuristic is when we assume things to have the same outcome because they are similar to each other. </p>
<p>Haha, we typed it at the same time. Ignore my question.</p>
<p>Ok, refreshing the last question I posted up...</p>
<p>What is instrument conditioning and reconditioning?</p>
<p>Haha as a bonus, what's P300? <- will be on my psych test tom.</p>
<p>Instrumental Learning (that's what you mean, right?) is basically an early form of Operant Conditioning. However, I've never heard of reconditioning or P300.</p>
<p>Explain what happens during each stage of sleep, including REM.</p>
<p>Yeah thanks rockermcr, I meant that...</p>
<p>During stage 1 sleep, Alpha waves are prevalent. There is often a feeling of rising or falling down.</p>
<p>In stage 2, there are sleep spindles, which keep the individual at a calm state.</p>
<p>In stage 3 &4 sleep, we slump down into deep sleep. Here the delta waves are prevalent.</p>
<p>in stage 5, there is REM (Random Eye Movement) sleep. It is theorised that this is the time when our dreams are most active.</p>
<p>The sleep now surfaces up for a while then plunges back down, repeating the stages. It'll go through about 4-5 cycles.</p>
<p>What are the stages of an experiment? and name types of variables.</p>
<p>does anyone have any released exams they would like to share with the rest of us?</p>
<p>You're going to get this thread deleted if you ask questions like that.</p>
<p>As for your question, august's-chopin, I don't have time to answer it right now, but I will tomorrow, if it isn't already answered.</p>
<p>Anoyone...?</p>
<h2>During stage 1 sleep, Alpha waves are prevalent. There is often a feeling of rising or falling down.</h2>
<p>Isn't it theta waves in stage 1? Alpha and beta are in consciousness. Alpha=rest and beta=active.</p>
<p>no it's alpha, and it's from sleep onset through stage one. feeling of rising or falling is in sleep onset i believe.</p>
<p>alpha is prevalent throughout consciousness, J. Shi, you are right...</p>
<p>However... my only concern is does sleep onset occur first then stage 1? or does stage 1 include sleep onset?</p>
<p>so basically, my teacher just gave me a packet yesterday for a practice test from collegeboard.com
and it was super easy.
I dont even think you need to know all these things</p>
<p>i didnt do the essay part yet, but i did do the 100 question test, and i got a 5 on that without studying</p>
<p>like i know some stuff better than others, but i dont think u will ever be asked something so stupid for essay pertaining to do with parts of the brain and all their functions.
i guess its possible, but i didnt see anything like that on this huge list of possible essay prompts my teacher gave me.</p>
<p>oh
and what books do you guys have.</p>
<p>im too lazy to check mine, but the cover has alot of orange, and i think it was published in 2005, maybe even 2006</p>
<p>okay now we're really deviating from the thread's intent.... let's snap back on track... my question repeated:</p>
<p>What are the stages of an experiment? and name types of variables.</p>
