    How would I answer the question: 'Outline Skinner's research into reinforcement' for 3 marks? Thank you for you wonderful videos!!

    • @BearitinMIND
      @BearitinMIND  Před 3 měsíci +3

      Hi Adam - Glad you are enjoying the videos. I hope the following helps in relation to the question you asked about:
      For this question you need to describe how Skinner studied reinforcement, so you could describe the Skinner box and some of the ways the different types of reinforcement were studied.
      An answer might look like this:
      Skinner created a highly controlled setting to carefully study the effects of reinforcement and punishment on the behaviour of animals, particularly on rats. This became known as the Skinner box. In this setup rats were placed in a box that contained various things including a lever, a food dispenser and an electric grid. In one condition Skinner wanted to see how quickly the rats would learn to press a lever. To do this whenever they pressed the lever a good pellet would be released (positive reinforcement). In other conditions, an electric shock was turned on and the rats had to press the lever to take away the painful shock (negative reinforcement).

      that example has quite the cynical view, a different view could be that people want to share their joy with others and instagram is a tool for that, and obviously receiving validation under any circumstances is a pleasant experience

    • @BearitinMIND
      @BearitinMIND  Před 4 měsíci

      I hear you - however the designers behind Facebook/Instagram/Meta have been very open and how principles of Behaviourism have been very effectively used, applied and refined to capture as much attention as possible. For example check out The Social Dilemma documentary on Netflix, or read something like this: www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/may/08/social-media-copies-gambling-methods-to-create-psychological-cravings OR journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0306422018800245 OR www.economist.com/1843/2016/10/20/the-scientists-who-make-apps-addictive

    • @BearitinMIND
      @BearitinMIND  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi x Arii x - If i'm understanding your comment correctly, the best place for you to look at what it meant by "Research Methods Paper 2" is to FIRSTLY click on the following link and take a look at a past exam paper - select an A-level Paper 2 - then scroll down to section C: www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/psychology/as-and-a-level/psychology-7181-7182/assessment-resources

    • @BearitinMIND
      @BearitinMIND  Před 2 lety +1

      SECONDLY, to exactly what you need to know for "Research Methods Paper 2" click on this link and scroll down to the section titled "Research Methods" - which includes the bullet points directly below it and the points underneath the sections called 'Scientific Processes' and 'Data analysis' www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/psychology/as-and-a-level/psychology-7181-7182/subject-content-as/psychology-in-context

      Great explanation 👍. I have read Skinner's book "Behavior of Organisms", but nowhere in his book does he say anything about punishment, he only talks about positive and negative reinforcement. Did Skinner add positive and negative punishment in another book?

    And also how is the last one fixed ratio?

    • @BearitinMIND
      @BearitinMIND  Před 6 měsíci +2

      I presume you are referring to the last practice question on the video and number 4? It's "fixed" because the parent rewards their child "every time". Reinforcement is given after a fixed number of times (in this case, 1). The number required to gain the reward stays the same each time (every time they go to the potty). Hope that makes sense :)
