Biological Constraints The structure of an organisms body permits certain kinds of learning and inhibits others. Instinctive Drift, the tendency for animals to revert to instinctive behavior that influences learning, illustrates biological influences on learning.The difficulty for animals to learn readily in one situation but have difficulty learning in slightly different circumstances might result not from some aspect of the learning situation but from the organisms biological predisposition. Preparedness is the species-specific biological predisposition to learn in certain ways but not others. Culture can influence the degree to which these learning processes, classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and observational learning, are used.- Culture can also influence the content of learning. Carol Dweck (2006) uses the term mindset to describe the way our beliefs about ability to dictate what goals we set for ourselves, what we think we can learn, and ultimately what we do learn. Individuals have one of two mindsets: a fixed mindset, in which they believe that their qualities are carved in stone and cannot change; or a growth mindset in which they believe their qualities can change and improve their effort.]]> 2017-04-19 02:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915311 g_crystal75 https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915511 Research using rats and other animals has demonstrated four important variables involved in the human stress response: predictability, perceived control, perceptions of improvement, and outlets for frustration.]]> 2017-04-19 02:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915511 g_crystal75 https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915535 Other parts of the endocrine system would be the pancreas, the ovaries and testes.]]> 2017-04-19 02:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915535 g_crystal75 https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915574 Psychologists define memory as the retention of information of information or experience over time.

Richard Atkinson and Richard Shiffrin formulated an early popular theory of memory that acknowledged the varying life span of memories. The Atkinson-Shiffrin thoery states the memory storage involves three separate systems:
 Sensory memory: time frames of a fraction of a second to several seconds
Short-term memory: frames up to 30 seconds
Long-term memory: time frames up to a lifetime]]> 2017-04-19 02:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915838 g_crystal75 https://padlet.com/g_crystal75/3d5aqluy5vj5/wish/166915890 Memory retrieval takes place when information that was retained in memory comes out of storage.
