The theory that our genes make us vulnerable to certain behaviours that may develop as a result of environmental stimuli is called ..
Diathesis Stress Model
Reductionism
Behavioural genetics model
Phenotype
Those who study the role of genetics in human behaviour make the assumption that
Environmental factors play no role in human behaviour.
Behaviour has a biological origin
All behaviours are the result of a single gene.
Behaviour is learned.
The key accomplishment of the Human Genome Project was
Identifying the function of all human genes
Determining how many genes humans have and their location on chromosomes.
Developing treatments for disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Identifying difference in male and female genotypes.
The part of Baddeley & Hitch's Working Memory Model that processes auditory stimuli is called
The central executive
The visuo-spatial sketchpad
The phonological loop
The episodic buffer
How does the WMM explain the results of Landry & Bartling's (2011) study of articulatory suppression?
There was the practice effect; the control group improved because of the repetition of the task.
Articulatory suppression interferes with the work of the central executive.
Articulatory suppression disrupts the connection between the phonological loop and the episodic buffer.
Articulatory suppression prevents rehearsal in the phonological loop
Which of the following is not a function of the central executive?
It consolidates memory in short term memory and moves it to long-term memory.
Shifting attention from one task to another.
Binding information from a number of sources into coherent "episodes".
Oversees the visual and auditory STM stores
What conclusion did Odden & Rochat make with regard to how children learn about fishing and the societal hierarchy in the Samoan culture?
Children are enculturated through both observation and participatory learning.
Children are enculturated through observational learning.
Children are enculturated through participatory learning.
Children are enculturated though gatekeepers - that is, their parents and teachers instruct them on the cultural norms
What is the key difference between enculturation and acculturation?
Enculturation happens through direct instruction; acculturation happens through observational learning.
The culture that is enculturated can never change.
Enculturation takes place in the culture you grow up in; acculturation is the result of interacting with another culture.
Enculturation is a process that finishes by a person's early teens; acculturation is a life-long process.
The term Berry used for when it is not possible to adopt the behaviours of a new culture because of discrimination or a lack of acceptance of individuals into the new culture.
Marginalization
Integration
Separation
Assimilation
In statistical testing, what does "an accepted level of probability that is tolerated is p < 0.05" mean?
there is a -0.05% (or less) chance that our results are due only to chance.
there is a 0.05% (or less) chance that our results are due only to chance.
there is a 0.5% (or less) chance that our results are due only to chance.
there is a 5% (or less) chance that our results are due only to chance.
