I am finding this task quite difficult as I get the theories confused and end up not being able to distinguish them from one another. One way that I think might help me with this task is to create a memory tree with the information as I am studying. This is a great technique if you are trying to remember a large amount of information. "The trick is to find a way to relate them in your mind visually with a memory tree. The fist step is to construct big branches and then leaves. Branches and leaves should carry labels that are personally meaningful to you in some way, and the organization of the facts or the leaves should be logical. it's been well recognized since the 1950's we remember "bits" of information better if we chunk them" (Lickerman, 2009).
I think if I take each theory and create the philosopher and the main facts related to each theory and make leaves out of them then I will be better able to remember what is connected to each theory. I think the key for me...
I think this will help me to better get the right facts with the right theory. I have to make sure that I label each tree in a way that will help me visualize each with the correct leaves when it comes time to remember each theory. I am thinking about making each tree correspond to a real life tree so that I can better make the connection and remember each tree in its entirety. For me I am a visual learner so the more that I can make visual connections the better off I am at remember things.

2. The following is a learning scenario using operant conditioning. A girl is mad at her boyfriend because he doesn't do the dishes enough. The boyfriend is the learner, and the behavior that needs to be learned is doing the dishes.

Psychology The Field of Psychology: An Overview of Foundations, Influence and Pertinence in Today's World One of the most fascinating and complex fields of study in today's scientific world is psychology, the scientific examination of human behavior.

Psychology Memories are an important part of the human experience. They help us define who we are, based on our past experiences, the people we have met, the places we have been and the things that we have done. Yet, there is much that we take for granted about memories, and they are often misunderstood. Consider for example criminal trials, where testimony is given on the basis of what people remember
