Study Notes
Spiritual Self/Mental Self
- Intelligence is the ability to handle new and complex situations effectively.
- It involves analyzing, evaluating, assessing, judging, understanding people, objects, and symbols.
- Alfred Binet, a French psychologist, considered intelligence a combination of mental capacities.
- This includes the ability to perform cognitive tasks, understand definitions of words, and follow instructions.
Nature and Nurture in Development of Intelligence
- Nature refers to genetic and hereditary factors, including physical appearance and personality traits.
- Nurture encompasses environmental variables like childhood experiences and how one is raised.
- Interactionism suggests that heredity and environment interact.
Theories of Intelligence
- Howard Gardner proposed multiple intelligences, including spiritual intelligence, which involves:
- Verbal linguistic (language proficiency)
- Logical-mathematical (proficiency in math)
- Musical (producing and appreciating rhythm, pitch, timber)
- Interpersonal (understanding people).
- Robert Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence includes analytical, creative, and practical intelligence.
- Raymond Cattell distinguished between fluid (abstract reasoning independent of prior learning) and crystallized intelligences (knowledge gained through prior learning.)
Learning and Better Student
- Learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior.
- Factors affecting learning include usage, relevance, experiences, and behavioral consequence.
- Edward Thorndike's laws of learning include readiness, exercise, and effect (repetition, approval).
- Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning and Burrhus Frederick Skinner's operant conditioning (rewards and punishments) are crucial behavioral learning principles.
- Albert Bandura's modeling and imitation emphasize the importance of observation in learning.
Motivation and Setting Goals for Success
- Motivation theories include drive-reduction, incentive, instinct, cognitive, arousal, and humanistic approaches.
- Drive-reduction involves internal pushes that lead a person to do things.
- Instinct theory explains motivations like responses that come naturally.
- Cognitive theory explains how expectations and values influence goals while arousal theory emphasizes human's needs for optimal arousal level.
- Humanistic theories focus on meeting one's needs and physiological needs. (Maslow's hierarchy of needs)
