Book Affect  Conditioning  and Cognition  PLE  Emotion

Download or read book Affect Conditioning and Cognition PLE Emotion written by J. Bruce Overmier and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1985, this title was a retrospective appreciation of the late Richard L. Solomon. His pre- and postdoctoral students from past years presented the 22 papers which are published in this volume. The book reflects the breadth of Solomon’s impact through his teaching and research. The first part contains a chapter that provides a bit of history in a retrospective appreciation of the several foci of Solomon’s research career. This chapter sets the stage for those that follow and reduces their diversity by providing a degree of historical understanding. The second part on the role of properties of fear contains chapters that address various issues associated with the role of conditioned fear. The third part contains papers that address cognitive, information-processing issues in the context of Pavlovian conditioning of appetitive and aversive events, reasoning and timing. The fourth part continues the exploration of the phenomenon of learned helplessness first discovered in Solomon’s laboratory. The fifth part addresses various issues associated with the Solomon and Corbit opponent-process theory of motivation and affect. The final part, on applications to human and cultural issues, contains chapters on such diverse subjects as cross-cultural analyses of aggressive behavior in children, the analysis of resistance to change in industrial organizations, the concept of liberty in formulating research issues in developmental psychology, and the status of free will in modern American psychology.

Book The Impact of Stress on Cognition and Motivation

Download or read book The Impact of Stress on Cognition and Motivation written by Pedro Morgado and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stress has a broad impact on animals’ behavior, profoundly affects brain regions involved on cognition and motivation and, when maladaptive, is also a trigger for neuropsychiatric disorders. This book focuses on advances in understanding how stressful events impact cognition and motivation, and the neural mechanisms that mediate their effects. Additionally, this book seeks to highlight the most recent efforts to identify individual factors that can alter an organism’s response to stressful stimuli, and to describe pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions that can mitigate the deleterious effects of stress on cognition and motivation.

Book Cognitive Processes and Pavlovian Conditioning in Humans

Download or read book Cognitive Processes and Pavlovian Conditioning in Humans written by Graham Davey and published by Chichester [West Sussex] ; New York : Wiley. This book was released on 1987-05-08 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributed papers present the latest research in cognitive processes and human conditioning. Integrating recent studies in human conditioning processes with knowledge of contemporary animal conditioning, the text fills a gap in the literature by revealing human conditioning as a much more complex cognitive process than shown by most introductory psychology texts. Emphasizes the practical applications of contemporary human conditioning theory to the areas of psychopathology and psychotherapy. Coverage includes human Pavlovian autonomic conditioning and the cognitive paradigm, latent inhibition and human Pavlovian conditioning, Pavlovian conditioning and hemispheric assymetry, conditioning and perception, and the interaction of neurohormones with Pavlovian A and Pavlovian B conditioning in the causation of neurosis, extinction, and incubation of anxiety.

Book Handbook of Learning and Cognitive Processes  Volume 2

Download or read book Handbook of Learning and Cognitive Processes Volume 2 written by William Estes and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1975, Volume 2 of this Handbook looks at areas traditionally associated with learning theory such as conditioning, discrimination and behavior theory. It deals with concepts and theories growing principally out of laboratory studies of conditioning and learning. The intention was to treat mechanisms, processes, and principles of some generality – applicable at least to all vertebrates. It was becoming well understood that detailed interpretations of particular behaviors required the authors to take account of the way general principles operate in the context of species-specific behavioral organizations and developmental histories; but detailed consideration of just how these interpretations were accomplished for different animal forms was another enterprise. Here the authors limit their task to abstracting from the enormous literature facts and ideas which seemed general enough to be of interest and perhaps utility to investigators in other disciplines at the time. Volume 1 presented an overview of the field and introduced the principal theoretical and methodological issues that persistently recurred in the expanded treatments of specific research areas that comprise the later volumes. Volume 3 looks at human learning and motivation, while the last 3 volumes range over the many active lines of research identified with human cognitive processes at the time.

Book Basic Processes of Learning  Cognition  and Motivation

Download or read book Basic Processes of Learning Cognition and Motivation written by S. M. Cormier and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986. The main objective of this book is to provide a hard-headed theoretical integration of several different major areas of research on learning, cognition, and motivation in humans and other mammals. By hard-headed, the author simply means that the concepts were generated from empirical data and are testable. Since an integrative theory must of necessity integrate apparent diversity, such an approach involves the identification and description of the most fundamental factors (structural processes) underlying the observed capacities of humans and animals in the domain of learning and motivation.

Book Handbook of Learning and Cognitive Processes  Volume 1

Download or read book Handbook of Learning and Cognitive Processes Volume 1 written by W. Estes and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword: "Is it possible at present to identify a core cluster of theoretical ideas, concepts, and methods with which everyone working in the area of learning and cognition needs to be familiar? Would it be possible to make explicit the relationships that we feel do or must exist among the various subspecialties, ranging from conditioning through perceptual learning and memory to psycholinguistics, and to present these in a sufficiently organized way to help specialists and non-specialists alike in relating particular lines of research to the broader spectrum of activity? These questions were posed to a substantial number of investigators who are currently most active in developing the ideas and doing the research. Their response constitutes this Handbook..." First published in 1975, Volume 1 of this Handbook attempts to present an overview of the field and to introduce the principal theoretical and methodological issues that will persistently recur in the expanded treatments of specific research areas that comprise the later volumes. Deferring to the current Zeitgeist rather than to chronology, they begin with the present state of cognitive psychology, then introduce the comparative approach, and conclude this volume with a rapid, three-chapter review of the evolution of ideas from conditioning to information processing.

Book Consistency and Cognition

Download or read book Consistency and Cognition written by S. Duval and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1983. Theories of causal attribution fall into two areas- those that are concerned with the basic psychological processes underlying causal attribution and those that deal with the motivational, affective, and behavioral consequences of causal assignation. The authors of this study explore the first theory theory based on one major assumption. Causal attribution is a manifestation of the tendency for consciousness, as a system, to organize cognitive content, that is, cognitions, into the simplest structures possible.

Book Essentials of Learning and Cognition

Download or read book Essentials of Learning and Cognition written by David L. Morgan and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern psychology has become a broad and fragmented collection of research areas, theoretical orientations, and professional organizations. The author, who believes integration within the discipline is critical, makes the case that its empirical and theoretical aspects can be unified under the umbrella of adaptation. The principles of learning, and the characteristics of memory and language—our adaptation to a challenging environment—are pertinent to all we do, and the sciences of learning and cognition are the subject areas most relevant to these proximate behavior–environment relationships. Because the adaptability of a behavior is often tied to its function, the author’s functional perspective serves as a helpful organizational tool for studying the otherwise disparate aspects of learning and cognition—thinking, memory, conceptual behavior, and language. New to this edition is an emphasis on applied behavior analysis, a rapidly growing and credentialed profession. Updated pedagogical features include opening chapter vignettes, interim summaries and review questions, improved graphics, and a full glossary of key terms.
