  1. Psy 201 Final Overview Chapter 1 - 15

  2. Abstraction: Brain’s higher-level cells respond to combined information from feature-detector cells Feature detection: Brain’s detector cells respond to elementary features-bars, edges, or gradients of light Retinal processing: Receptor rods and conesbipolar cells  ganglion cells Recognition: Brain matches the constructed image with stored images Scene Explain and then draw “Visual Information Processing” from scene to brain.

  3. Social learning theory Gender schema theory Rewards and punishments + Observation and imitation of models Cultural learning of gender Gender schema (looking at self and world through a gender “lens”) Gender-organized thinking + Gender-typed behavior Gender-typed behavior Two theories of gender-typing Explain and then draw the flow charts for the two theories of gender-typing.

  4. Explain and draw Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.

  5. Physiological activation Appraisal Emotional response Expressive behavior Event Subjective experience Draw the flow chart and name the elements for “The Two Routes to Emotion.”
