Psychology Vocabulary Listed below are vocabulary words that, upon completion of the unit of instruction, should be familiar to students. These words are introduced in the student text. Some of these words will be used in the CRT’s. Every effort has been made to make the readability of each CRT appropriate for the grade level at which the assessment was written. If needed, teachers are allowed to assist students with reading and comprehending difficult words or phrases they may encounter during the CRT assessment. The following are guidelines for providing assistance. Any word(s) may be pronounced to a student as necessary. Additional assistance may be given for words that do not appear on the list below (defining words, providing context clues, giving examples, etc.). Do not provide clues that may help students figure out the correct answer. abstract thinking acoustic encoding action potential adrenal glands afferent nervous system all or none principle Alzheimer’s disease amnesia APA code of ethics aptitude tests archetypes attachment atypical authoritarian parenting style authoritative parenting style autonomy axons behaviorism Big Five dimensions of personality bio-psychological perspective Broca’s area case study central nervous system cerebellum cerebral cortex cerebral hemispheres chunking clinical psychologist cognitive perspective collective unconscious concrete operations/operational confidentiality control group conventional moral reasoning corpus callosum correlation/correlational counseling psychologist dendrites dependent variable depolarization depth perception developmental psychologist diabetes dopamine efferent nervous system ego egocentrism encoding endocrine system endorphins episodic memory Erik Erikson evolutionary psychology experiment experimenter bias explicit memories flashbulb memory formal operations hippocampus humanistic theory hypothalamus hypothesis For CRT reprint date 6/03 id identity development implicit memory imprint independent variable informed consent introversion/ extroversion Jean Piaget John Watson Lawrence Kohlberg life-span limbic system lobes of the brain (occipital, temporal, parietal, frontal) long-term memory Mary Cover Jones menarche midlife crisis mnemonic naturalistic observation negatively correlated nerve nervous system neural impulses neuron neuroticism neurotransmitters object permanence objective tests observable behavior olfactory bulb parasympathetic nervous system Parkinson’s disease participants perceptual set peripheral nervous system permissive parenting style personality psychologist placebo population positively correlated postconventional moral reasoning preconventional moral reasoning prenatal development preoperational projective tests psychodynamic theory random sample random assignment recall reflex regression rehearsal relearning reliability representative sample repression resting potential reticular formation retrieval retrograde amnesia Carl Rogers role confusion rooting sample self-actualization semantic encoding sensorimotor sensory memory sensory neurons serial position effect short-term memory Sigmund Freud social-cognitive theory socialization somatic nervous system spinal cord storage structuralism superego survey sympathetic nervous system synapse/synaptic gap synaptic bulb/synaptic knob teratogens threshold trait theories unconditional positive regard unconscious/unconscious processes visual perception Wernicke’s area working memory For CRT reprint date 6/03 For CRT reprint date 6/03
