Resumo de Recurso
Cognitive Approach
Focuses on mediational processes SOR
e.g. memory, thinking, decision making, attention
Can be studied scientifically like behaviourist...can't see what's in our heads, but can make inferences based on behaviour
Believe mental processes to be as important as environmental stimuli when learning
Lie between stimulus and response...SOR
We actively organise and manipulate info - choose what to pay attention to
Believe mental processes change over time
Thinking becomes more sophisticated
Assumes people process information like computers - information processors
Stimulus: mouse, keyboard, microphone, USB. Ears, eyes, nose, touch
Output: monitor, sound etc. Behaviour
Uses models to explain unobservable mental processes
Information processing approach (IPA)
Stimulus
Sensory input
Perception
Ball coming towards left hand
Organism
Processing
Decision making
Decide to catch in left hand
Response
Output
Behaviour
Catch ball
Strengths
Highly controlled lab experiments
Has considered areas ignored by behaviourists
Advanced understanding of human functions e.g. memory research
Developed practical applications including cognitive therapy and interviews
Weaknesses
Experiments are artificial tasks - lack ecological validity. Can't be generalised to real life situations.
IPA - info can be passed between computers but not humans
IPA - mechanistic. Does not consider emotions or motivation
Reductionistic - focuses on metal processes and ignores complexities of human life
Millers Magic number 7
Participants were shown around 20 letters and were asked to recall them immediately after
As soon as they got one wrong, Miller stopped counting.
It was found the average number of letters recalled was 7 (+-2)
This showed that the short term memory storage was limited
