Plato<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Paradox of learning. How can I learn something if I do not know it already?      <\/p>\n

           Examples \u2013 (1) Verbally, ask how to spell \u2018psychology.\u2019   Told to look it up in the dictionary. Do you understand the dilemma?   (2) How do you learn what a circle is, beginning from the FIRST exposure. What were you exposed to? From class, that was the point of circle or triangle vs. closed figure. Remember?<\/p>\n

Aristotle<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Weimer emphasized the nominalism and associationism of Aristotle. More generally, as an opposite of rationalism, we need to introduce empiricism<\/u>.  That refers to experience, especially perceptual experience (through the senses).<\/p>\n

Then characterize these features of Aristotle\u2019s Science, biology, as examples.<\/p>\n

           4 causes; teleology [special term related to  FINAL CAUSE]         See links on syllabus home page.<\/p>\n

           Laws of association — Associationism (Aristotle \u2013 350 B.C.E). Aristotle asserted three Laws of Association and a Law of Frequency that are considered by many to be at the heart of most behavioral learning theories. These laws, summarized by Olson and Hergenhahn (1982, p. 35), are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Law of Similarity \u2013 the experience or recall of one object will elicit the recall of things similar to that object.<\/li>\n
  2. Law of Contrast \u2013 the experience or recall of one object will elicit the recall of opposite things.<\/li>\n
  3. Law of Contiguity \u2013 the experience or recall of one object will elicit the recall of things that were originally experienced along with that object.<\/li>\n
  4. Law of Frequency \u2013 the more frequently two things are experienced together, the more likely it will be that the experience or recall of one will stimulate the recall of the second.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    common sensibles<\/strong> [same regardless of sensory modality \u2013 number and extent, for example, are the same for touch, sight, hearing, etc.] and<\/p>\n

    special sensibles<\/strong> [specific to modality \u2013 color is vision, pitch is hearing etc.]<\/p>\n
