Homework: Test on Monday and Vocab due Monday
Learning Target: I will be able to apply my knowledge of module 1-3

2. Which Perspective?
I study how people of all ages learn, and I develop instructional methods and materials to help the learning process. In particular, I stress the roles played by thinking, problem- solving, memory and mental imagery

3. Which Perspective?
I work mostly with people who suffer from mental disorders, and I believe that the main causes of mental illness are either genetic or due to some malfunction in the central nervous system or endocrine system.

4. Which Perspective?
I often travel to different countries to research people’s attitudes and group relations. My research tends to show that many behavioral patterns; for instance, the amount of personal space people require to feel comfortable, vary from one country to another.

5. Which Perspective?
I believe that unconscious conflicts, early childhood experiences, and repressed sexual and aggressive feelings make us who we are, and I use this point of view in my work on individual differences and in trying to determine which characteristics make each of us unique.

6. Which Perspective?
I focus on how people strive to overcome obstacles that disrupt their normal growth potential and impair their self-esteem. I believe strongly in free will and choice in human behavior.

7. Which Perspective?
My research keeps me in the lab most of the time, and I focus on the principles and conditions of learning and motivation. Recently, I have been investigating how quickly rats learn the layout of a maze as a function of either large or small amounts of reinforcement.

8. Which Perspective?
Psychological processes that have helped individuals adapt to their environment have also helped them to survive, reproduce, and pass those abilities to their offspring. I adopt this point of view in my investigations of interpersonal attractions, prejudice, and aggression.

9. I study the relationship between people and work, and more specifically, how to increase productivity. I believe that by changing environmental factors, increasing the use of rewards and praise for correct behavior, and providing correct feedback, worker’s overt behavior can be changed.
