Presentations part 2

During my classmates presentations I was able to learn a lot of things. One of the most interesting things I learned were that most psychologist for many years believed that the only way a person could learned was by reinforcement. This way of thinking was the base of the learning procedure until Tolam gave the idea that human have hidden talent that only shows when needed. Also there is the observation learning, which is when something is learned by just looking how to do it. This idea of the observation method was introduced by Albert Bandura.

 

From the other group I was able to learn how to overcome fear to a non-harmful stimuli by flooding, which is the process in which you introduce the person to their fear and make it interact with it until their brain has process that the the stimuli means no harm and the fear goes away in degrees. I also learned that generalization and discrimination help humans and all animals adapt to their environment
