  3. 11. bias occurs when you focus on one piece of information when making a decision or solving a problem.
  4. 12. Type of thinking in which the number of possible solutions is expanded to include multiple feasible solutions
  5. 13. A mental representation of objects and categories
  6. 15. learning that is the sudden awareness of a solution to a problem
  7. 18. Having extensive background knowledge can help
  8. 20. conditioning occurs when the CS and the UCS are presented and terminated at the same time
  9. 22. A concept with characteristics defined by clear rules
  10. 24. Bias that is a tendency to search for information that supports our pre-existing beliefs while ignoring information that contradicts those beliefs
  11. 25. conditioning occurs when the CS is presented and continues at least until the UCS is presented.
  12. 27. conditioning occurs when the CS is presented and terminated before the presentation of the UCS
  13. 28. The inability to see a problem from a new perspective

  1. 1. When a problem solver sets aside an unsolved problem and thinks about something else
  2. 2. A situation in which a person has a goal that is not yet accomplished
  3. 3. The tendency to overestimate how accurate our beliefs and judgements are. We tend to be more confident than correct
  4. 5. A mental representation of the “best example” of a concept
  5. 7. Processes of thought such as attending, knowing, remembering, and making decisions
  6. 8. learning in the absence of apparent reinforcement.
  7. 9. The way an issue is posed or worded can change our judgements or decisions
  8. 10. A process or set of steps to solve a problem
  9. 14. conditioning occurs when the UCS is presented before the CS.
  10. 16. A concept without clearly defined characteristics
  11. 17. Conditioning occurs when the CS is a fixed period of time between presentations of the UCS.
  12. 19. a procedure that leads to the gradual weakening and eventual disappearance of the CR.
  13. 21. Type of thinking in which the number of possible solutions is narrowed down to the single best solution.
  14. 23. learning that takes place by watching another individual model the learning task.
  15. 26. bias leads you to believe that the event you just experienced was predictable, even though it really wasn’t.
