Define hypothesis |
Answer» Hypothesis is the theory which a researcher makes before doing the experiment. After the experiment the results must match with the hypothesis or else the researcher has to make an alternative hypothesis.<br>A hypothesis is a set of statements which gives a tentative explanation on how, why and when a particular phenomenon may occur. It forms the basic foundation to what is known as the HYPOTHETICO DEDUCTION METHOD which is used in developing theories and principles in psychology. | |

Explain psychology as a discipline |
Answer» Psychology as a discipline seeks to develop an idea on how our mind works and how different behaviours lead to different mental and how they interact with our environment. Different psychologists use different ways to study about mind and its nature. When some study the discipline in scientific and objective manner, others do so from the point of view of the observer ie, in a subjective manner. The discipline has two parallel streams - use of biological and physical sciences to study human behaviour and then, study of human behaviour in sociocultural contexts. | |

Explain theories of Selective Attention. |
Answer» A number of theories have been developed to explain the process of selective attention. The three of these theories are:\tFilter theory:\tThis theory was developed by Broadbent (1956). According to this theory, many stimuli simultaneously enter our receptors creating a kind of "bottleneck" situation.Moving through the short term memory systems, they enter the selective filter, which allows only one stimulus to pass through for higher levels of processing, other stimuli are screened out at that moment of time.Thus, we become aware of only that stimulus which gets access through the selective filter.\t\t\tFilter-attenuation theory: This theory was developed by Triesman (1962) by modifying the Broadbent, theory.\tThis theory proposes that the stimuli not getting access to the selective filter at a given moment of time are not completely blocked.The filter only attenuates (weakens) their strength. Thus some stimuli manage to escape through the selective filter to reach higher levels of processing.It is indicated that personally relevant stimuli (e.g. one\'s name in a collective dinner) can be noticed even at a very low level of sound.Such stimuli, even though fairly weak, may also generate response occasionally by slipping through the selective filter.\t\t\tMultimode theory: This theory was developed by Johnston and Heinz (1978). This theory believes that attention is a flexible system that allows selection of a stimulus over others at three stages:\tStage one: - The sensory representation (e.g. visual images) of stimuli are constructed;\tStage two: - The semantic representations (e.g. names of objects) are constructed;\tStage three: - Sensory and semantic representations enter consciousness. It is also suggested that more processing requires more mental effort. When the messages are selected on the basis of stage one processing (early selection), less mental effort is required than when the selection is based on stage three processing (late selection). | |

What do you understand by bottom up processing and top down processing |
Answer» There are two general processes involved in sensation and perception.\xa0Bottom-up processing\xa0refers to processing sensory information as it is coming in. In other words, if I flash a random picture on the screen, your eyes detect the features, your brain pieces it together, and you perceive a picture of an eagle. What you see is based only on the sensory information coming in. Bottom-up refers to the way it is built up from the smallest pieces of sensory information.Top-down processing, on the other hand, refers to perception that is driven by cognition. Your brain applies what it knows and what it expects to perceive and fills in the blanks, so to speak. First, let us look at a visual example:Look at the shape in the box to the right. Seen alone, your brain engages in bottom-up processing. There are two thick vertical lines and three thin horizontal lines. There is no context to give it a specific meaning, so there is no top-down processing involved.Now, look at the same shape in two different contexts.Surrounded by sequential letters, your brain expects the shape to be a letter and to complete the sequence. In that context, you perceive the lines to form the shape of the letter “B.” Surrounded by numbers, the same shape now looks like the number “13.” When given a context, your perception is driven by your cognitive expectations. Now you are processing the shape in a top-down fashion.Next, watch this video for an example of top-down processing with auditory stimuli. Note that at the end, once you have heard the full sentence, you can understand it even when it is broken up again. A “phoneme” is just a basic unit of speech sound.\xa0 | |

Define attention. Explain it\'s properties |
Answer» The process through which certain stimuli are selected from a group of others is generally referred to as attention.The properties of attention are selection, alertness, concentration and search.\tSelection—\xa0A large number of stimuli impinge upon our sense organs simultaneously, but we do not notice all of them at the same time.\xa0Only a selected few of them are noticed,\xa0e.g. when you enter your classroom you encounter several things like doors, walls, windows etc but you selectively focus only on one or two of them at one time.\tAlertness— Alertness refers to an\xa0individual’s readiness\xa0to deal with stimuli that appear before him/her. e.g. while participating in a race in your school you must have seen the participants on the starting line in an alert state waiting for the whistle to blow in order to run.\tConcentration— Concentration refers to\xa0focusing of awareness\xa0on certain specific objects while excluding others for the moment, e.g. in the classroom a student concentrates on the teacher’s lecture and ignores all sorts of noises coming from different comers of the school.\t\xa0Search— In search an observer looks for some\xa0specified subset of objects\xa0among a set of objects, e.g. when we go to school to fetch our younger sister and brother from the school we just look for them among innumerable boys and girls.<br>The process through which certain stimuli are selected from a group of others is generally referred to as attention.Attention has different properties such as selection, alertness, concentration, and search.(i) Selection: A large number of stimuli impinge upon our sense organs simultaneously but we do not notice all of them at the same time. Only a selected few of them are noticed. For example, when a student enters his classroom he encounters several things in it, such as doors, walls, windows, paintings on walls, tables, chairs, students, school bags, etc., but he selectively focus only on one or two of them at one time.(ii) Alertness: It refers to an individual’s readiness to deal with stimuli that appear before him/her. For example while participating in a race in school, a student can see the participants on the starting line in an alert state waiting for the whistle to blow in order to run.(iii) Concentration: It refers to focusing of awareness on certain specific objects while excluding others for the moment. For example in the classroom, a student concentrates on the teacher’s lecture and ignores all sorts of noise coming from different corners of the school.(iv) Search: In search an observer looks for some specified subject or object among a set of objects. Example : When you go to fetch your younger sister and brother from the school, you just look for them among many boys and girls. All these activities require some kind of effort on the part of the people. | |

Explain the functional limitations of sense organs |
Answer» The functional limitations of sense organs of human beings refer to their limited range of stimulation. In order to be noticed, a stimulus has to be of an optimal intensity and magnitude. Thus, the stimulus has to carry a minimum value or weight. For example, our ears cannot hear very faint or loud sounds. Similarly, our eyes cannot see objects in very dim or very bright light.<br>Our sense organs provide us with first hand information about our external or internal world. Different sense organs deal with different forms of stimuli and serve different purposes. Each sense organ is highly specialised for dealing with a particular kind of information. However, all sense organs function with certain limitations. For example, our eyes cannot see things which are very dim or very bright. Similarly, our ears cannot hear very faint or very loud sounds. As human beings, we function within a limited range of stimulation. A stimulus, to be noticed by a sensory receptor, has to be of an optimal intensity or magnitude. In order to be noticed, a stimulus has to carry a minimum value or weight.The minimum value of a stimulus required to activate a given sensory system is called absolute limen (AL). Absolute limen is not a fixed point, instead it varies considerably across individuals and situations depending on the people’s organic conditions and their motivational states. Hence, it is assessed on the basis of a number of trials. Further, it is not possible to differentiate between all stimuli. In order to notice two stimuli are different from each other. These has to be some minimum difference between the value of those stimuli. The smallest difference in the value of two stimuli that is necessary to notice them as different is termed as difference limen (DL). Thus, it is not possible to understand sensations without the AL and DL of different types of stimuli.Besides the stimulus characteristics, sensory processes also depend on other characteristics. Sense organs and the neural pathways connecting them to various brain centres also play a vital role in this process. A sense organ receives the stimulus and encodes it as an electrical impulse. For being noticed this electrical impulse must reach the higher brain centres. Any structural or functional defect or damage in the receptor organs, its neural pathway, or the concerned brain area may lead to a partial or complete loss of sensation. | |

Mention the steps involved in scientific method |
Answer» The aim of all scientific methods is the same, that is, to analyze the observation made at the beginning but there are various steps adopted as per the requirement of any given observation. However, there is a generally accepted sequence of steps of scientific methods.\tObservation and formulation of a question:\xa0This is the first step of a scientific method. In order to start one, an observation has to be made into any observable aspect or phenomena of the universe and a question needs to be asked pertaining to that aspect. For example, you can ask, “Why is the sky black at night? or “Why is air invisible?”\tData Collection and Hypothesis:\xa0The next step involved in the scientific method is to collect all related data and formulate a hypothesis based on the observation. The\xa0hypothesis\xa0could be the cause of the phenomena, its effect, or its relation to any other phenomena.\tTesting the hypothesis:\xa0After the hypothesis is made, it needs to be tested scientifically. Scientists do this by conducting experiments. The aim of these experiments is to determine whether the hypothesis agrees with or contradicts the observations made in the real world. The confidence in the hypothesis increases or decreases based on the result of the experiments.\tAnalysis and Conclusion:\xa0This step involves the use of proper mathematical and other scientific procedures to determine the results of the experiment. Based on the analysis, the future course of action can be determined. If the data found in the analysis is consistent with the hypothesis, it is accepted. If not, then it is rejected or modified and analyzed again. | |

Explain Eating disorder |
Answer» Thankyou<br>(i) Eating disorders: Adolescents obsession with self-living in fantasy world and peer comparisons lead to certain conditions where they become obsessed with their own bodies.(ii) Anorexia nervosa: It is an eating disorder that involves relentless pursuit of thinness through starvation. It is quite common to see adolescents eliminate certain foods from their diets or to eat slimming foods only. The media also projects thinness, as the most desirable image and copying such fashionable image of thinness leads to anorexia nervousa.(iii) Bulimia: It is another form of an eating disorder in which the individual follows a binge-and -purge eating pattern. The blumic goes on an eating binge, then purges by self-induced vomiting or using a laxative at times alternating it with fasting. Anorexia neruousa and bulimia are primarily female disorders more common in urban families. | |

describe the relation of psychology with other disciplines class 11 |
Answer» Psychology is connected not only with the sciences but also with other disciplines which are not generally regarded as sciences. For example, the relationship between psychology and philosophy is well known.Modern psychology grew out of philosophy and philosophers have always influenced theories in psychology. Even today, this is quite true. Literature and art are the other fields of knowledge which are also related to psychology.In recent years extensive investigations have been made into the role of psychological factors in the production of literary pieces -and works of art. Freud, Jung and several outstanding psychologists have tried to analyse the role of psychological factors like ego, motivation and personality in literary and artistic creations.\xa0 | |

____ first proposed the famous equation B=f(P,E) |
Answer» Kurt Lewin<br>Kurt Lewin first proposed the famous equation B = f (p1 E) – which suggests that behaviour is the product of a person and his/her environment. Kurt Lewin\'s behavior equation is “B = f(P, E)”. It states that an individual\'s behavior (B) is a function (f) of the the person (P), including their history, personality and motivation, and their environment (E), which includes both their physical and social surroundings. | |

Explain Bronfenbrenner’s Contextual view of Development. |
Answer» The Bronfenbrenner\'s contextual view of development is based on four sytems.(i) Microsystem: It is the immediate environment/setting in which the individuals lives. It is in these settings where the child directly interact with the social agents like family, peer, teachers and neighbourhood.(ii) Mesosystem: Relations between teacher and parents or family and neighbourhood etc.(iii) Exosystem: Events in the social settings where the child does not participate directly but influence the child experiences in the immediate context. For example the transfer of father or mother may effect the interaction with child.(iv) Chronosystem: It involves the events socio-historical circumstances, divorce etc.In nutshell the child development significantly affect by complex world. | |

Explain the role of psychology in everyday life |
Answer» There are a large number of areas of everyday life where understanding of psychology can be put to practice. A number of problems of life can easily be solved. For example, these days solutions to a variety of problems related to children, adolescents, adults and the elderly people are suggested by television counsellors to the rapists. They can also be seen analysing vital social problems relating to social change and development, population, poverty, interpersonal or intergroup violence, and environmental degradation.The knowledge of psychology is also personally relevant for us in our day-to-day life.The principles and methods of psychology should be made use of in analysing and understanding ourselves in relation to others. Psychological principles can be used in a positive manner to develop good habits of study for improving learning and memory, and for solving personal and interpersonal problems by using appropriate decision making strategies. Its knowledge is very useful in reducing or alleviating the stress of examination, work, etc. | |

Psychology like other sciencesattempts to develop principles of behaviour andmental processes |
Answer» Yes<br>In research the main concern is with the understanding and explanation of behaviour and mental events and processes. Psychologists, who choose to engage in research, function more like other scientists. Like them, they drew conclusions which are supported by data. They design and conduct experiments or studies under controlled conditions on a wide range of psychological phenomena. The purpose is to develop general principles about behaviour and mental processes. The conclusions drawn on the basis of such studies apply to everybody and are, therefore, universal. Experimental, comparative, physiological, developmental, social, differential and abnormal psychology are generally regarded as domains representing basic psychology.The themes of research in these fields differ from each other. For example, experimental psychologists study the purposes of perception, learning, memory, thinking and motivation; etc. using experiment as their method of enquiry, whereas physiological psychologists attempt to examine physiological bases of these behaviours. Developmental psychologists study qualitative and quantitative changes in behaviour from the beginning of human life to its end, whereas social psychologists focus on the study of experience and behaviour of individuals as they take place in social contexts. | |

What are changes occur during childhood? |
Answer» Even though the growth\xa0of\xa0young children\xa0in\xa0the Preoperational stage\xa0of\xa0development has slowed down a bit compared to infancy,\xa0early childhood\xa0is still a time\xa0of\xa0tremendous physical\xa0changes.\xa0During\xa0this period, children\'s bodies\xa0change\xa0proportions and they start to look more like adults than babies. Physical growth slows down between five and eight years of age, while body proportions and motor skills become more refined. Physical changes in early childhood are accompanied by rapid changes in the child\'s cognitive and language development. | |

Give difference between field experiment and quasi experiment |
Answer» In a\xa0true\xa0experiment, participants are randomly assigned to either the treatment or the control group, whereas they are not assigned randomly\xa0in a quasi-experiment.\xa0Randomized trials\xa0are\xa0experiments in\xa0which the division into treatment and\xa0control\xa0groups is determined at random (for example, by tossing a coin). ...\xa0In\xa0some cases,\xa0quasi-experiments\xa0also involve random assignment, such as\xa0in the\xa0lotteries sometimes used to distribute school vouchers.\xa0In a true\xa0experiment, each participant who volunteered would have an equal chance of being assigned to any of the three groups.\xa0Quasi-experiments\xa0are employed when the researcher is interested in independent variables that cannot be randomly assigned.\xa0Quasi-experimental\xa0research involves the manipulation of an independent variable without the random assignment of participants to conditions or orders of conditions. Among the important types are nonequivalent groups designs, pretest-posttest, and interrupted time-series designs. | |

Give four techniques to control extraneous variables. |
Answer» Largely, there are four approaches by which the effect of the extraneous variables can be controlled.1) Randomization: In this approach, treatments are randomly assigned to the experimental groups. It is assumed that the extraneous factors are present equally in all the groups. This technique is only workable when the sample size is very large.2)Matching: Another important technique is to match the different groups of confounding variables. Different confounding variables like gender, age, income etc. could be distributed equally amongst the group. It sometimes does become difficult to extend matching within all the groups and another drawback of the same is that, sometime the matched characteristics may be irrelevant to the dependant variable.3)The use experimental designs: In certain studies, the experimental designs may play a crucial role in reducing or completely removing the role and impact of the extraneous variables.4)Statistical Control: There may be situations, when all the above mentioned methods to control the extraneous variables do not show any significant outcome. It brings the entire research into question as then causal inferences are difficult to make. Another method that may work to bring down the effect of extraneous variables is the method of statistical control. Among the various statistical tools and techniques, Analysis of Covariance ( ANOVA) helps in reducing the impact of the extraneous factors on the study. | |

Define case study.What are the characteristics of case study method? |
Answer» Case study\xa0is a descriptive qualitative form of research that is used to look at subjects, a small group, or a group as a whole. Researchers collect data on participants using participants and direct observations, interviews, tests, and record exams.The important characteristics of the case study method are as under:\tUnder this method the researcher can take one single social unit or more of such units for his study purpose; he may even take a situation to study the same comprehensively.\tHere the selected unit is studied intensively i.e., it is studied in minute details. Generally, the study extends over a long period of time to ascertain the natural history of the unit so as to obtain enough information for drawing correct inferences.\tIn the context of this method we make complete study of the social unit covering all facets. Through this method we try to understand the complex of factors that are operative within a social unit as an integrated totality.\tUnder this method the approach happens to be qualitative and not quantitative. Mere quantitative information is not collected. Every possible effort is made to collect information concerning all aspects of life. As such, case study deepens our perception and gives us a clear insight into life. For instance, under this method we not only study how many crimes a man has done but shall peep into the factors that forced him to commit crimes when we are making a case study of a man as a criminal. The objective of the study may be to suggest ways to reform the criminal.\tIn respect of the case study method an effort is made to know the mutual inter-relationship of causal factors.\tUnder case study method the behaviour pattern of the concerning unit is studied directly and not by an indirect and abstract approach.\tCase study method results in fruitful hypotheses along with the data which may be helpful in testing them, and thus it enables the generalised knowledge to get richer and richer. In its absence, generalised social science may get handicapped. | |

what is mind ? it is true that mind cannot exist without brain? |
Answer» Traditionally, scientists have tried to define the\xa0mind\xa0as the product of\xa0brain\xa0activity: The\xa0brain\xa0is the physical substance, and the\xa0mind\xa0is the conscious product of those firing neurons, according to the classic argument. But growing evidence shows that the\xa0mind\xa0goes far beyond the physical workings of\xa0your brain.\xa0It is possible one\'s\xa0mind\xa0might\xa0exist without\xa0one\'s\xa0body. One\'s\xa0mind\xa0is a different entity from one\'s\xa0body.\xa0Subjectively, our\xa0thoughts come\xa0from nowhere: they just pop into our heads, or emerge in the form of words leaving our mouths. Objectively, we\xa0can\xa0say that\xa0thoughts\xa0emerge from neural processes, and that neural processes\xa0come\xa0from everywhere. | |

What are variables? Discuss different types of variables? |
Answer» There are two types of variables in psychology:Independent- variable which the person manipulates Dependent- variable which is dependent on the independent variable. For example: study shows that listening to music helps improve sleep. In this example, the independent variable is listening to music and the dependent variable is improving sleep. Because the improvement of sleep is dependent on whether we listen to music(in this eg). Hope this helps<br>In Algebra, a variable is an alphabet which is used to represent the unknown number. It represents the value. A variable is a quantity that may be changed according to the mathematical problem. The generic letters which are used in many\xa0algebraic expressions\xa0and equations are x, y, z. In other words, a variable is a symbol for a number where the value is not known.For example, x + 5 = 10Here “x” is a variable.\xa0Variables are broadly classified into two categories, namely:Dependent VariableThe dependent variable is a variable that depends on the value of some other number or variable. In short, the dependent variable is the output of a function. The value of the dependent variable changes, if there is a change in the value of an independent variable. The variable is dependent because its value depends on what we put into the function.Example: y = 4 + 2xHere, y is called a dependent variable. The value of y completely depends on the function 4 + 2xIndependent VariableThe independent variable does not depend on any values. It is called the input of a function. The value of the independent variable is not affected by any values of a function.Example: x = 2y + 3zHere, x is called a dependent variabley and z are the independent variablesBecause the value of y and z are not affected by any other values. | |
