part 2

 

SM has no fear, she lives entirely without this one emotion due to a rare medical condition.  One might reason that her life should be perfect, but it is not. According to psychologist Paul Ekman, all humans are born with six basic emotions: anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise.

You can read more about other and more global ideas of what the range of emotions are here:

After you have contemplated being hardwired with a set of six emotions, read the transcript to this podcast about SM–scroll down to the second mention of “This is INVISIBILIA” if you are short on time and go from there.  Then, speculate and discuss why we need fear and anxiety, how it can cause us mental distress, but also how it shapes a healthy life. What do you think her existence is like without one of the basic emotions? How might it affect your parenting, driving, crossing the street and do forth? Finally, If you could chose to eliminate one of your emotions, which one would it be and why?

Address the following in your presentation:

· Hypotheses

· Methodology

· Population

Option 2: Environmental and Evolutionary Psychology Literature Review

Prepare a 3- to 5-page literature review for a research paper on how developmental psychologists employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules and one-trial learning techniques in teaching new tasks. Provide citations from relevant human and animal research to support your review.

Address the following in your assignment:

· Theoretical or construct basis for the concepts of shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules and one-trial learning techniques, including historical development

· Current understanding of effective application of these learning concepts

Option 3: Forensic Psychology Proposal

Prepare a 10-minute or 5- 7 page proposal for a research project demonstrating how prison staff psychologists can employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules or one-trial learning techniques (only one) to improve inmate compliance.

Address the following in your proposal:

· Hypotheses

· Methodology

· Population

Option 4: Forensic Psychology Literature Review

Prepare a 3- to 5-page literature review for a research paper on how prison staff psychologists can teach correctional staff to employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, and one-trial learning techniques in teaching anger management skills to inmates. Provide citations from relevant human (and animal, if available) research to support your discussion.

Address the following in your review:

· Theoretical or construct basis for the concepts of shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, and one-trial learning techniques, including historical development

· Current understanding of effective application of these learning concepts

Option 5: Health and Sports Psychology Proposal

Prepare a 10-minute proposal for a research project demonstrating how sports psychologists can teach sport coaches to employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, or one-trial learning techniques (choose only one) to improve the technical skills of the athletes they coach. Limit your discussion to a single skill in a single sport.

Address the following in your proposal:

· Hypotheses

· Methodology

· Population

Option 6: Health and Sports Psychology Literature Review

Prepare a 3- to 5-page literature review for a research paper on how sports psychologists employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, and one-trial learning techniques in teaching new technical skills among athletes. Provide citations from relevant human and animal (for example, dressage, steeplechase) research to support your review.

Address the following in your paper:

· Theoretical or construct basis for the concepts of shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules and one-trial learning techniques, including historical development

· Current understanding of effective application of these learning concepts

Option 7: Industrial/Organizational Psychology Proposal

Prepare a 10-minute proposal for a research project demonstrating how engineering psychologists can employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules or one-trial learning techniques (choose only one) to teach equipment operators how to operate a new piece of equipment—for example, pilots transitioning from an analog cockpit to a digital cockpit.

Address the following in your proposal:

· Hypotheses

· Methodology

· Population

Option 8: Industrial/Organizational Psychology Literature Review

Prepare a 3- to 5-page literature review for a research paper on how engineering psychologists employ shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules, and one-trial learning techniques in designing the transition from one situation to a new one—for example, production assemblers learning to assemble a new computer that is similar to the previous model but has subtle but important differences. Provide citations from relevant human and animal research to support your assertions.

Address the following in your paper:

· Theoretical or construct basis for the concepts of shaping and chaining, reinforcement schedules and one-trial learning techniques, including historical development.
