What is the emphasis of IPT (Interpersonal Therapy)
Belief that psychological problems stem from difficulties in one of 4 areas and that addressing the problem(s) in these areas will help. Areas are:

Interpersonal Role Disputes
Role Transition Problems
Interpersonal Deficits
Grief
GRID
Grief
Role Transitions
Interpersonal Role Disputes
Interpersonal Deficits
The more intense a stimulus, the greater the change in intensity that must occur for a person to perceive the change. This statement summarizes the predictions of:


Fechner's law
Fullerton-Cattell law
Steven's law
Weber's law
Weber's law - the more intense a stimulus, the greater the change in intensity needed to generate a perceivable change
Weber simple increase
Fechner - logrithmic increse (function (F!)

Stevens' Power Law -simple perception, not change in perception - certain intensity of stimulus is necessary for the stimulus to be perceived
A "communality" is best described as:


the proportion of variance accounted for by a single factor in multiple variables
the proportion of variance accounted for by multiple factors in a single variable
the proportion of variance accounted for by multiple factors in multiple variables
the total proportion of variance in a set of variables that is attributable to error
Communality - proportion of variance in a (dependent) variable acouunted for by a combination of factors
Piaget's concrete operational stage of development is characteristic of children aged:


2 to 7 years
5 to 8 years
7 to 11 years
10 to 15 years
7-11 concerte operations

0-2 sensorimotor
2-7 pre-operational
7-11 concrete operations
11+ formal operations
When conducting research with human participants, a psychologist should be aware that:


participants must be debriefed promptly after their participation in the study
participants must be debriefed after their participation in a study only when the study involved deception
participants must be debriefed promptly if possible or, if necessary to delay the debriefing, psychologists must reduce the risk for harm
the decision to debrief is left to the psychologist and involves considering the risk for harm to participants if they are not debriefed
third option
To calculate an examinee's scaled scores on the WAIS-III, you need:


the examinee's subtest raw scores and a formula that converts raw scores to scaled scores
the examinee's subtest raw scores and tables provided in the test's scoring manual
the examinee's chronological age, subtest raw scores, and tables provided in the test's scoring manual
the examinee's score on an "index test," subtest raw scores, and tables provided in the test scoring manual
to calculate scaled score use:
raw scores
chronological age
tables
Two rats are being conditioned to push a button in order to receive a food pellet. During the acquisition of this behavior, both rats were reinforced using a continuous schedule of reinforcement. After their response rates peaked and then declined, one rat began to receive two food pellets after each button push, whereas the second rat continued to received a single pellet after each response. Despite this difference in the amount of reinforcement, the response rate (i.e., the number of button pushes) for both rats remained the same. This is due to the occurrence of:


extinction.
habituation.
satiation.
inhibition
satiation - reinforcer statrts to lose its power when the S has had enough
For Miller and Dollard, the approach-approach conflict:


is a dilemma because as soon as the individual approaches one positive goal, the pull of the other positive goal increases in strength
is a dilemma that is often resolved by "leaving the field" and choosing a third goal
is not really a dilemma since, once the individual begins to approach one positive goal, the strength of the pull of the other positive goal decreases
is an unpredictable dilemma because it is impossible to ever know if the appropriate goal has been selected
the approach-approach conflict is not really a conflict according to M&D b/c there is some latent inhibition about the other goal.

Lewin (field theory) would be more likely to endorse the first or second, in which dissonance increases with approach-approach and must be reduced by changing either the situation or beliefs
The final stage in Cross's (1995) model of identity development for African-Americans is:


internalization-commitment
incorporation
integrative awareness
autonomy
Internalization-Commitment

Cross's most recent version has _5_ STAGES!

Picture the cross with "internalization-commitment" next to it or make it the fifth point on a star and have the shape of a cross make you think of a star or remember that the Cross, for Jesus, ended with Internalization-Commitment (being burried - interred) before Resurrection
