Sir Frederic Bartlett continued Piaget's studies into the Schema Theory through an experiment that introduced people of Western culture to a Native American folk tale. The tale was different to many stories that the audience had heard before. In this story a man's face contorts at the result of an encounter with supernatural beings. The people undertaking the experiment were then asked at different intervals in time, ranging from immediately after reading it to a year later, to draw a diagram of what the face looked like (being mindful of the context and language used in the story). Bartlett had found that:

Wähle eine oder mehr der folgenden:

  • The people's diagrams gradually changed over time to reflect the aspects of the story that made the most sense to them.

  • All of the above.

  • Only using the main points of the story made it more memorable to the reader, as finer details of the story were forgotten over time.

  • People have Schemas that represent their knowledge about the world.

  • Through Schema, a persons prior knowledge will influence their new knowledge.

In Freud's Psychoanalytic Theory there are three elements that make up a person's cognition. Match each of these with the descriptions provided.

Theories of development and developmental stages are tested in the hopes that they not only describe how we change as humans over time, but also how these stages can be optimised to encourage positive growth. The three goals of studying development are description, explanation and optimisation. Match each of the following definitions with their corresponding goal:

The developmental stages theorised are either typical to development or are individually different dependant on who they are applied to. This goal discusses theory universality and WHY developmental stages either do or do not apply to real life.

( Description, Optimisation, Explanation ) -
This goal recognises specific developmental stages and how they are applied to individuals.

( Optimisation, Explanation, Description ) -
This goal recognises the stages of development that people undertake, and hence aims to devise ways that these stages may be used to encourage the best possible development in people.

Match each of the following methods of experimentation with their descriptions.

: Aims to discover whether two variables are related in a systematic fashion. For example, the correlation between a child's viewing of violent TV shows and their level of aggressive behaviour 15 years later as an adult.

: Explores the performance of and provides a comparison for different cohorts or age groups who complete the same experiment. E.g. a 5 year old and a 15 year old complete the same puzzle in a test to compare the differences in their cognitive abilities.

: One cohort repeat a study over time, for example a memory test is administered to Year 12 students every 2 months to measure changes over time in the same age group. These studies tend to be time consuming, as participants must be contacted at each interval of the testing.

: A combination of the cross sectional and longitudinal design, where a wide range of participants from different age ranges/cohorts undertake a study on multiple occasions. These tests are generally time consuming and can be expensive, but are proven to be the most effective at collecting accurate or useful data.

Match each of the four key developmental issues with their appropriate descriptions.

- To what extent do humans change gradually and in quantitative ways - or progress through qualitatively different stages and change dramatically into different beings?

- To what extent is development primarily the product of genes, biology and maturation - or of experience, learning and social influences?

- How much do humans do to actively shape their own environments and contribute to their own development - or are they more passive and shaped by forces beyond their control?

- In what ways is development similar from person to person and from culture to culture, and in what ways do pathways of development vary considerably depending on the social context?
