4. Behaviorism, • J.B Watson- Father of Behaviorism., • In 1912, he denied to accept Psychoanalysis method of mind and, consciousness as a Science., , • He admitted Psychology as a study of stimulus and response which can be, measured objectively., , • He was influenced by I.P Pavlov’s classical conditioning., • Hull-drive-reduction- “Principles of Behavior”.
Page 14 :
Classical Conditioning- I.P Pavlov, • It involves learning to associate an unconditioned stimulus that already, brings about a particular response (i.e. a reflex) with a new (conditioned), stimulus, so that the new stimulus brings about the same response.

Key Points, • Stimulus: anything which, , •, affects behavior., •, • Response: behavior elicited by •, the stimulus., •, • Unconditioned stimulus, •, • Conditioned stimulus, , Conditioned response, Extinction, Spontaneous Recovery, Generalization, Discrimination
Page 17 :
Operant Conditioning – B.F Skinner, • Through operant conditioning, an individual makes an association between, a particular behavior and a consequence., , • Also known as Instrumental conditioning., • Most influential Psychologist of 20th century.

Laws of Learning, • Thorndike classified two different categories of laws of learning:, • Primary Laws of Learning., • Secondary Laws of Learning.

5. Gestalt Psychology, •, •, •, •, •, , The whole is greater than the sum of its parts., Father of Gestaltism is Wertheimer., People associated with it are Kohler, Koffka, Kurt Lewin., Insightful Learning, Sultan.

6. Cognitive Psychology, • In 1960, Miller and Jerome Bruner established cognitive school., • Information Processing Theory is given by Bruner., • Enactive, Iconic, Symbolic Learning.
Page 25 :
Jean Piaget, • Schema: Schema is set or pattern or information., • Assimilation: When new schema is added in pre-, , existing schema, it is called assimilation., • Accommodation: When pre-existing schema is, modified due to introduction of new schema, it is called, accommodation.

3. Concrete Operational Stage, •, •, •, •, , In this stage, child starts thinking., Child develops the ability of reversibility., Child develops the ability of conservation., Child is not able to think abstract concepts i.e able to do concrete thinking., , 4. Formal Operational Stage(11-15):, , • In this stage child develops abstract thinking., • Child develops the ability of hypothetico-deductive reasoning.
