Answer the following AP Psychology Concept Application: Scenario in Time Question

Effect of Neurotransmitters on Behavior

Researchers were interested in studying how varying levels of serotonin affect mood and social behavior in humans. They hypothesized that lower levels of serotonin would be associated with more negative moods and decreased social interaction. To test this, they selected participants who were diagnosed with mild depression and administered a drug that decreases serotonin levels in some participants, while others received a placebo. Over a four-week period, they measured participants' mood using standardized mood questionnaires and recorded their social interactions. The results showed that participants with decreased serotonin levels reported worse moods and fewer social interactions compared to those who received the placebo.

Unit 3: Sensation and Perception

Understanding Sensory Adaptation

A high school teacher conducts a simple experiment to demonstrate sensory adaptation to her students. She asks them to place their hand in a bowl of lukewarm water and keep it there for a few minutes. Initially, the water feels either slightly warm or cool to different students, but after a while, they no longer feel the temperature difference. The teacher explains that this phenomenon is due to sensory adaptation.

Depth Perception and Visual Illusions

A cognitive psychologist is exploring how depth perception influences susceptibility to visual illusions. Participants are presented with images that contain common visual illusions, such as the Müller-Lyer illusion, and are asked to describe what they see. The study aims to determine if individuals with more acute depth perception are less likely to be deceived by visual illusions. The findings suggest that participants with better depth perception are indeed less susceptible to certain types of visual illusions.

Concept Application: Scenario in Time - Overcoming Instinctive Drift

Answer the following AP Psychology Concept Application: Scenario in Time Question

Contingency Model of Classical Conditioning

A research team explores the contingency model of classical conditioning by comparing two groups of dogs. One group receives a tone followed by food (tone-food pairing), while the other group receives food without any preceding tone (no pairing). The hypothesis is that the dogs in the tone-food pairing group will salivate more in response to the tone alone than dogs in the no-pairing group. Salivation is measured after the conditioning phase when the tone is presented without food. The results support the hypothesis, demonstrating a significant increase in salivation to the tone in the tone-food pairing group.

Concept Application: Perspectives - Classical Conditioning in Daily Life

Answer the following AP Psychology Concept Application: Perspectives Question

Unit 5: Cognitive Psychology

Working Memory Model

In a study to examine the components of Baddeley's working memory model, researchers designed an experiment involving dual tasks to test the phonological loop and the visuospatial sketchpad simultaneously. Participants were divided into two groups. Group A was given a verbal task that required them to repeat a list of numbers (engaging the phonological loop) while also completing a spatial reasoning task on a computer (engaging the visuospatial sketchpad). Group B performed the same spatial reasoning task but without the verbal repetition task. The researchers hypothesized that Group A would perform worse on the spatial reasoning task due to the dual-task interference. The results supported the hypothesis, showing a significant decrease in spatial reasoning performance for Group A compared to Group B.

Unit 6: Developmental Psychology

Attachment Styles and Future Relationships

A developmental psychologist theorizes that the attachment style formed in infancy between a child and their caregiver can predict the quality of their future romantic relationships. To test this hypothesis, they conduct a longitudinal study following participants from infancy through adulthood. During infancy, attachment styles are assessed using the Strange Situation procedure. As adults, participants' romantic relationship satisfaction is measured through self-reported surveys. The results indicate a correlation between secure attachment in infancy and higher relationship satisfaction in adulthood. Part A: Identify the hypothesis of the experiment and Identify the method used to assess attachment in infancy. Part B: Explain how the use of self-reported surveys could influence the results of the experiment. Explain how participant dropout could influence the results of the experiment. Part C: Name how the concepts of longitudinal studies, attachment, and social referencing are related to the scenario.

Unit 8: Clinical Psychology

Concept Application: Perspectives - Confronting PTSD

Answer the following AP Psychology Concept Application: Perspectives Question

Diagnosis with DSM-5

A clinical psychologist is conducting a study to evaluate the accuracy of DSM-5 in diagnosing anxiety disorders. The psychologist hypothesizes that the DSM-5 criteria will accurately diagnose anxiety disorders in a large percentage of patients. To test this hypothesis, the psychologist reviews the medical records of 100 patients diagnosed with anxiety disorders based on DSM-5 criteria and then conducts follow-up interviews and assessments to confirm the diagnosis. The results show that a significant majority of the diagnoses were confirmed through the follow-up assessments.

Impact of Sociocultural Factors on Anxiety Disorders

A group of researchers aims to explore how sociocultural factors influence the prevalence and manifestation of anxiety disorders among different ethnic groups. They hypothesize that individuals from ethnic groups with high stigma surrounding mental health will report higher levels of anxiety but lower rates of seeking treatment. The study involves surveying a diverse sample of 500 individuals from various ethnic backgrounds about their experiences with anxiety, perceptions of mental health stigma, and history of seeking mental health treatment. The results indicate that individuals from ethnic groups with higher perceived stigma around mental health report higher levels of anxiety and a lower likelihood of seeking treatment.

Concept Application: Reflections - Understanding Phobias

Answer the following AP Psychology Concept Application: Reflections Question

Group Polarization and Decision Making

A team of psychologists is interested in studying group polarization. They hypothesize that after discussing a controversial issue, a group's decision on that issue will be more extreme than the individual members' initial positions. To test this, they assemble groups of participants with varying opinions on a controversial topic and have them discuss the topic. They measure the participants' opinions before and after the discussion. The findings indicate that the group's post-discussion consensus is indeed more extreme than the average of the initial individual opinions.
