I learned how the cognitive perspective is more toward how an individual thinks and how it affects their behavior, where psychodynamic is more your unconscious thoughts and desires.]]> 2016-08-30 13:09:31 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/120539169 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/120794211 Today in class I learned how to write an AP Psychology essay. I learned how in these essays you just define and then apply. You do not need a thesis, introduction, or conclusion. Also I learned the difference between the different methods and how case studies can be misleading because some results are atypical and not all people are the same. ]]> 2016-08-31 12:24:20 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/120794211 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121056019 Today in class, I learned that a longitudial study is a study that is done over a long period of time and full results are not completed until that time is over (also includes the rate of Retrition- # of people that drop out of the study. Also I learned that the counfounding variable is something that you did not think to control for.]]> 2016-09-01 12:25:00 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121056019 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121647952 Today in class, we did a practice FRQ. I learned the format of these questions and how they are supposed to be answered. I made sure to define all of the terms and then give an example to further explain the topic. ]]> 2016-09-06 00:16:37 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121647952 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121953558 Today in class, we worked on the activity called Roll The Dice. I learned how to create a frequency distribution chart (sum and frequency) and how to make a histogram and polygon with the frequencies. Doing this helps to look at the data in an easier way and to determine if the results are effective or significant at all.]]> 2016-09-06 21:10:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/121953558 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122072197 Today in class, I learned the different guidelines for ethics that are created by the APA Board. I learned how if you need to keep your population uninformed about the experiment you are required to debrief them after the experiment and they need voluntary consent/assent.]]> 2016-09-07 12:31:34 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122072197 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122402269 We learned are people who are involved in unethical studies can still be traumatized many years later. Even though they were not harmed physically, emotional harm can do just as much damage. ]]> 2016-09-08 12:46:02 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122402269 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122702796 We learned the difference between correlational and causal. Three examples of a correlation include: 
1. As you eat more food, you gain more weight.
2. If you work more hours, you will make more money over time.
3. The more icing you put on the cake, the more sugar and calories are in the cake. ]]> 2016-09-09 12:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/122702796 gretchenfar5676 https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/123084074 I need to review the numbers and statistic involved in the bell curve graph. Also I need to review distinguishing between the different perspective. I need to review the various psychologists and what they did specifically. ]]> 2016-09-12 12:25:30 UTC https://padlet.com/gretchenfar5676/fftbwd4nxg9p/wish/123084074
