AP Psychology Introduction 1. Define psychology. the scientific study of behaviour and mental processes 2. Trace the historical development of psychology from Aristotle to John Watson. Identify major contributors and their major contribution. A lot of psycology is based in philosophy and religion with roots in Buddha, Confucious, etc. Greek philosophers are noted for psycology?s origins -- starting with Socrates (who taught plato who taught ariistotle). Aristotle loved data and turned thought into a science, ultimately leading to that which is psycology. 3. Describe psychology?s concerns regarding nature and nurture. Do human traits develop through experience vs are we born with those traits?

But this mindset is hardly rational and, even, strikingly inconsistent with our ostensible assumptions about the nature of G*d. In terms of the nature of His being, Jehov@h is defined by three characteristics: omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience. These characteristics are all unmatched by anything that we are aware of within reality and are, therefore, incomprehensible. G*d is, by necessity of his divine nature, impossible to understand. Why is it, then, that we are surprised when the events that He oversees defy our concepts of what should and shouldn’t happen? If we really believed that G*d’s nature is so difficult and impossible, we should really be more surprised whenever we find his will intelligible than when we don’t.

Lawrence Kohlberg posed moral dilemmas to subjects to examine how they responded to and reasoned out these dilemmas. He identified three levels of moral development: the preconventional level, from birth to about age nine; the conventional level, from age nine to adolescence or early adulthood; and the postconventional level, which many people never attain.

Festinger?s hypothesis: Subjects brought beliefs in line with behavior. Cognitive Dissonance Theory Suggest:
