Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

684
Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Causes of Social Behavior II: Cognitive Processes

12
Cognitive processes affect social behavior by guiding how individuals perceive, interpret, and respond to social stimuli. These mental processes enable individuals to assess others' behaviors, attribute causes to their actions, and form expectations based on past experiences.Causes of Behavior and Social JudgmentsIndividuals determine the causes of others' behaviors by distinguishing between personal traits and external circumstances. For example, if a friend frequently arrives late, an...

Measures of Intelligence01:29

Measures of Intelligence

7.9K
Psychologists measure intelligence by using standardized tests that produce a score known as the intelligence quotient or IQ. To understand IQ tests, it's important to recognize the key principles behind their construction: validity, reliability, and standardization.
Validity refers to how well a test measures what it claims to measure. An intelligence test should accurately assess intelligence rather than another characteristic, like anxiety. Criterion validity is one way to evaluate this;...

Social Cognitive Perspective on Personality01:30

Social Cognitive Perspective on Personality

692
Social cognitive perspectives on personality emphasize the importance of conscious awareness, beliefs, expectations, and goals in shaping behavior. These perspectives incorporate behaviorist principles, such as learning through reinforcement and conditioning, but extend beyond them by highlighting human reasoning and planning. Unlike traditional behaviorist views, social cognitive theory focuses on how individuals reflect on their past experiences and plan for future outcomes by considering...

Self-Serving Bias01:29

Self-Serving Bias

8
Self-serving bias is a cognitive phenomenon in which individuals attribute positive outcomes to internal factors such as their abilities, intelligence, or effort while attributing negative outcomes to external circumstances. This cognitive distortion helps maintain self-esteem but can also impede objective self-assessment.Theoretical Explanations of Self-Serving BiasTwo primary theories explain the self-serving bias: the cognitive explanation and the motivational explanation.The cognitive...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

40.9K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Area of Science:

  • Digital Health
  • Machine Learning
  • Gerontology

Background:

  • Digital biomarkers are increasingly vital in healthcare, particularly for continuous monitoring.
  • Cognitive ability assessment is crucial for aging populations, especially for those living alone and in clinical trials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a new digital biomarker for cognitive ability using ambient sensor data.
  • To evaluate its effectiveness in long-term monitoring and clinical assessment of older adults.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized indoor location data from passive infrared sensors to construct a location matrix over several weeks.
  • Calculated reconstruction error from the matrix's eigenvectors.
  • Employed linear regression for cognitive score prediction and support-vector machines for classification.

Main Results:

  • The reconstruction error demonstrated strong predictive performance for high cognitive ability.
  • Achieved high discriminative performance (ROC AUC of 0.94) in classifying normal versus mild cognitive impairment, outperforming age alone.
  • The method is entirely unobtrusive, imposing no patient burden.

Conclusions:

  • Reconstruction error from ambient sensor data is a promising digital biomarker for cognitive health.
  • It offers a non-invasive tool for binary classification of cognitive status.
  • Potential for predicting inter-individual differences in cognition, though with less precision for lower cognitive levels.
