Athens and Sparta Essay Athens and Sparta are among the most spoken about city-states (city-state is an entity whose territory consists of a city. This is not administered as a part of another local government that is independent in Ancient Greece). These two city-states were related in many ways but also have many differences. Athens was a very pleasant city-state. Unlike many city-states, it had a democratic government. A democratic government is a government that lets the people

solely on behaviour, tells us what people do rather than what may or may not being going on in their minds. They also suggest that all behavior, including attachment, is learned through either classical or operant conditioning. According to Ivan Pavlov ‘learning is a conditioned reflex also known as classical conditioning. The learning theory states that when an infant is hungry, milk (unconditioned stimulus) naturally produces a sense of pleasure (unconditioned response). The person who feeds the

Describe and evaluate two or more theories of the formation of romantic relationships (24 marks) There are many different ways that romantic relationships can be formed. Two examples of this are the reward/ need theory suggested by Byrne and Claw as well as the filter theory suggested by Kerchkoff and Davies. In this essay, I will be expanding on these two theories and evaluating them. The first of the two theories is the filter theory suggested by Kerchkoff and Davies. They suggested that there

neutral stimulus was the white rat, the unconditioned stimulus was the loud noise, the unconditioned response was fear, the conditioned stimulus was the white rat, and the conditioned response was fear. This experiment presents an example of how classical conditioning can be used to condition emotional responses in humans. Little Albert was not originally scared of the white rat, but when it was paired with something that did scare him such as the loud noise, he associated the loud noise with the

For every action, there will be an equal and opposite reaction taking place. The reaction will push against the initial action in an equal amount of force. This is present in every force acted upon an object, surface or matter. As a result if an object has force applied to it will receive the same amount of force from the opposite direction (re-action). The rocket pushes downwards to the ground using its the force generated from its engines (action). The reaction of the initial force causes

Newton's First Law of Motion can be stated as: An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Newton’s First Law of Motion is applied to liftoff because: Before firing, the rocket is in state of rest, and its airspeed is zero. When the engine is fired, the thrust increases from zero and the weight decreases slightly as the fuel burns. When the thrust

If = 10, = 15, and a = 130°, determine the scalar product of the two vectors shown. 1) +96 2) -96 3) +51 4) -51 5) -35 A 2.0-kg block sliding on a frictionless horizontal surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k = 600 N/m) which has its other end fixed. The speed of the block when the spring is extended 20 cm is equal to 3.0 m/s. What is the maximum speed of this block as it oscillates? 1) 4.6 m/s 2) 5.3 m/s 3) 5.7 m/s 4) 4.9 m/s 5) 3.5 m/s A block slides on a rough horizontal surface

Exam Essentials The Behaviourist Approach. Q1 a) State two assumptions of the behaviourist approach The behaviourists believe that all behaviour comes from learning as a result of interactions in the environment. One assumption of the behaviourist approach is that behaviour is affected by operant conditioning or learning by consequence. This means that if a person engages in a particular behaviour and is then rewarded (positively reinforced) in some way (the consequence is a good one or a

brought with it a sense of calm and security. Even now, almost three years after her passing when I catch her scent, a feeling of comfort and well-being washes over me. This is a perfect example of classical conditioning, otherwise known as Pavalovian conditioning or respondent conditioning. Classical conditioning is a type of learning that occurs when either a conditioned stimulus or an unconditioned stimulus triggers either a conditioned response or an unconditioned response (Domjan,
