Study Notes
Cognition, Emotion, and Behavior
- Thoughts shape self-perception and the world. Psychological domains include cognitive (thoughts), affective (emotions), and psychomotor (behavior).
Cognitive Domain
- Thoughts often take the form of questions or internal dialogues.
- Malcognition: Persistent, repetitive thoughts (positive or negative).
- Maladaptive thinking: Accepting and internalizing thoughts without challenging them.
- Metacognition: Thinking about thinking.
- Thoughts can be influenced by escapism (convincing oneself of something).
Behavioral Domain
- Overt behavior: Visible actions.
- Covert behavior: Hidden actions.
- Conditioning influences behavior. Concepts include operant and classical conditioning. Classical conditioning, demonstrated by Pavlov, involves associating a neutral stimulus with a response to create a conditioned response.
Reinforcement and Motivation
- Positive reinforcement: Adding a desirable stimulus to increase behavior.
- Negative reinforcement: Removing a negative stimulus to increase behavior.
- Positive motivation: Driven by rewards.
- Negative motivation: Driven by fear or avoidance.
- Higher expectations correlate with higher frustration.
Social and Emotional Influences
- Similar people share emotions, reinforcing connections through interaction.
- Societal and family pressure impact self-perception.
Cognitive Development Stages (Piaget)
- Sensorimotor (Birth-2 years): Learning through senses. Develop basic actions, object permanence, and separate self-awareness. Actions cause effects.
- Preoperational (2-7 years): Symbolic thinking. Egocentric thinking (difficulty with others' perspectives). Develop language and thought.
- Concrete Operational (7-11 years): Logical thinking about concrete events. Understand conservation (constant quantity). More organized, logical. Inductive logic (specific to general).
- Formal Operational (12+ years): Abstract thinking. Reason about hypothetical situations. Engage in moral/philosophical/ethical reasoning. Deductive logic (general to specific).
