Behavior and Reinforcement
- Reinforcement increases the likelihood of a behavior occurring.
- Punishment, in contrast, aims to decrease behavior frequency.
- Insight involves understanding, not necessarily linked to behavior modification.
Schedules of Reinforcement
- Fixed Ratio Schedule: Rewards given after a set number of responses, e.g., coach rewarding a player after every third wicket.
- Fixed Interval Schedule: Reinforcement occurs after a predetermined time, demonstrated by an employee receiving rewards every 45 minutes.
Types of Memory
- Echoic Memory: A type of sensory memory specifically for auditory information received through the ears.
Defense Mechanisms
- Sublimation: A mature defense mechanism where unacceptable impulses are transformed into socially acceptable actions, such as kickboxing for managing anger.
Eye Anatomy
- Iris: The muscle band behind the cornea that gives the eye its color and controls pupil size.
Psychosexual Development
- Oedipus Complex: Observed during the Phallic stage of Freud's psychosexual development.
- Correct developmental order of Freud's stages: oral, anal, phallic, latency.
Motivation Types
- Intrinsic Motivation: Internal satisfaction driving behavior, contrasted with external motivations like money or power.
