<p>Which theory states that the frequencies we hear depend on where the hairs are located in the cochlea? ------- Place Theory</p>
<p>What is narcolepsy?</p>
<p>excessive sleepiness during the day. </p>
<p>What is one major development during Piaget’s preoperational stage?</p>
<p>Narcolepsy is a disorder characterized by a sudden onset of bouts of sleep caused by the brain’s inability to control cycles of alertness and sleep, possibly connected somehow to the reticular formation in the brain, which controls arousal.</p>
<p>What are Piaget’s stages of development, and which stages encompass the law of conservation and egocentrism?</p>
<p>Wow, weird coincidence. (Slow internet = fail.) @ bigb14: Law of conservation.</p>
<p>New question. What is structuralism and who came up with the concept?</p>
<p>Sensorimotor (like birth to 2)
Preoperational (2 to 7) = very egocentric
Concrete Operational (8 to 12) = learn conservation now
Formal Operational (13 on)</p>
<p>Structuralism is based off breaking individuals into different parts as they use introspection. Wilhelm Wundt was the founder of psychology and a structuralist, but Edward Titchener brought it to America.</p>
<p>What are the three different parenting styles and the children’s behaviors associated with them?</p>
<p>Authoritative – Best of Both Worlds (Tough but Fair)
- Kids Know What their punishment is before they do it.
Authoritarian – TOugh but tougher - No room for discussion, follow the rules!
Passive – Loosey Goosey - Do whatever you wat!</p>
<p>Okay, new question:</p>
<p>What mimics neurotransmitters and what blocks neurotransmitters?</p>
<p>agonist is a drug that mimics the neurotransmitter.
antagonist is a drug that blocks the neurotransmitter.</p>
<p>Why did Carol Gilligan criticized Kohlberg? (what reason?)</p>
<p>Women develop morality in social situations while men develop overarching moralities</p>
<p>What is the fundamental attribution error?</p>
<p>the tendency to underestimate the importance of situation (external things) as a cause/motivator for action</p>
<p>what are the parts of the ear that are involved in audition/what is the order that sound passes through?</p>
<p>Sound goes through the ear canal, passes through the tympanic membrane (eardrum), through the hammer/malleus, incus, stapes/stirrup (collectively referred to as the ossicles), then…I forgot lol. Something about a tympanic window and then hair cells for transduction.</p>
<p>The next poster finish the explanation above and pose a new question.</p>
<p>yeah, the oval window, which relays the sound to the cochlea, which contains hairs for transduction. Ok… how about: </p>
<p>The AP test tests what type of validity? (Can be more than one, I guess)</p>
<p>achievement
what does cross sectional and longitudinal mean?</p>
<p>my question was what type of VALIDITY… you are wrong, my friend.</p>
<p>construct,content, criterion-related validity</p>
<p>cross sectional is a study done at one point in time
longitudinal is over a long period of time</p>
<p>What connects both hemispheres of the brain?</p>
<p>Corpus collosum</p>
<p>What is a stimulant and a depressant? (give an example of each)</p>
<p>a stimulant arouses (cocaine) and a depressant un-arouses (alcohol)</p>
<p>What type of research method should one use to prove that smoking causes aggressive behavior?</p>
<p>experiment/Correlational Studies</p>
<p>What is the difference between an aptitude test and an achievement test?</p>
