科学领域:
- 进化心理学 进化心理学
- 发展心理学 发展心理学
- 认知科学 认知科学
背景情况:
- 人类进化的特点是认知和合作的快速变化.
- 两个著名的理论,马基雅维利式智力假说和文化大脑/智力假说,试图解释这些变化.
- 了解这些认知能力的发展轨迹对于评估这些理论至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 实验性地比较马基雅维利式智力假说和文化大脑/智力假说的解释力.
- 调查儿童对社会学习的依赖与战略互动的依赖.
- 确定精神化和一般认知能力在社会学习中的作用.
主要方法:
- 这是一项受控实验,涉及3至7岁的儿童观察一种新的社会互动.
- 评估儿童在文化学习 (复制) 和战略性回报最大化之间的后续行为选择.
- 分析认知能力 (思维,一般认知) 与行为策略之间的相关性.
主要成果:
- 儿童主要通过复制观察到的行为来参与文化学习,即使战略互动提供了更高的回报.
- 在重复的互动中,对复制的依赖仍然存在.

Observational Learning
209
Albert Bandura's observational learning, also known as imitation or modeling, occurs when a person observes and imitates another's behavior. It is a quicker process than operant conditioning. A well-known example is the Bobo doll study, where children who saw an adult acting aggressively towards the doll were more likely to act aggressively when left alone, compared to those who observed a nonaggressive adult. Many psychologists view observational learning as a form of latent learning...

Purposive Learning
141
E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

Cognitive Learning
421
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.

Higher Mental Functions of Brain: Learning and Memory
871
Memory is one of the most vital higher mental functions of the brain. Memory is closely related to learning because it enables us to retain information and experiences from our past to use them in our present life. It also helps us to remember facts, events, and skills, such as riding a bike or swimming. There are two types of memory — declarative memory, which involves memorizing facts or events, and procedural memory, which enables us to remember how to do something like writing or...

Empathy
9.6K
Some researchers suggest that altruism operates on empathy. Empathy is the capacity to understand another person’s perspective, to feel what he or she feels. An empathetic person makes an emotional connection with others and feels compelled to help (Batson, 1991). Empathy can be expressed in several ways, including cognitive, affective, and motor.

Metacognition
199
Metacognition is a conscious process where individuals are aware of their cognitive and executive processes, such as planning before solving a problem or self-monitoring during reading. For instance, a writer may need help with composing a piece. The situation involves a writer who is working on a piece of writing, but while doing so, they realize that something is missing. They notice that their characters lack depth or details. This realization occurs because the writer is reflecting on their...
