Title: Unit 4 Mnemonics/Ways of Remembering Things
Post by: emiinaaa on October 16, 2012, 10:28:35 pm

If anyone has any special ways to remember some of the content for this unit, please post them here so that others can benefit too!

For example,

Bandura's experiments

1961 - tested effects of gender of models and effects of aggressive/passive models  G A P
1963a - tested effects of type of model (on tv, in vivo (real life model), as a cartoon)  T I C
1963b -  tested effects of reward and punishment (haven't come up with anything for this one)

I think everyone already knows this one.
But i use ARRM-R for stages in observational learning:
Attention, Retention, Reproduction, Motivation/Reinforcement
& PIIV for stages of insight.
Prep, Incubation, Insightful Experience, Verification.

Anyone have any mnemonics for the Axis?

Well the letters could be

C (clinical disorders)

P (personality disorders)
R (mental retardation)

M (general medical conditions)

P (psychosocial problems)
E (environmental problems)

G (global assessment of functioning)

So a random sentence with them or something could work...

Ruined = delusions of reference
Bitter = thoughts of broadcasting
Cups = delusions of control
Give = delusions of grandeur
Puny = delusions of persecution
Ills = thoughts of insertion

These are the types of delusions for people doing schizophrenia  :)

I put the axis on a peg-word method. It worked. Draw out whatever your peg is going to be (for global assessment of functioning I've got a gigantic Earth with 'global assessment of functioning' written on it with bees coming out of it because it is a hive)

Possibly an obvious one but I just remembered:
Order of punishment
Appropriateness
Timing of punishment

And then there's also the potential side-effects of frustration/aggression, but I don't think I knew those at the time.  :P
