EXAM WAS FAGGY
1.Apparently the IV and DV question in research methods was switched around so the DV was first - vcaa tricking you again....
Anyone can confirm this?

2.Also criticism of retrieval failure theory. I wrote procedural memories can be remembered without any cues because its implicit.
Am I right?

3.Wave question, was it variable interval or ratio. I swear the wave example is like the gambling example where one does not know when they will get the wave/win money, making it variable ratio. Anyone remember the question?

4.Will aversion therapy as an explanation get you marks in the question where you have to explain what will remove that chicks fear of spiders? I know some people said system desensitation, but that didnt come to my mind. =[

5.I'm surprised nobody mentioned about the MC question which I thought only 10% of the state would get right. It was something about max the dog and its owner when he entered the laundry to open can of food so dog would run around in circles, then it was like the 2nd question about that scenario where the owner moved the dog outside so something like the dog did not run around anymore or something. It was like A: extinction which I initially thought but then I changed it to D: unconditioned behaviour because the location of the dog was changed, which was not extinction. My explanation isn't really good but can anyone who has the paper write the question for us?

I think all hopes for a 50 gone down the drain. =[

that question was hard, had to go back to it but picked extinction, probably wrong...they try to trick us so bad

So .... what time did everyone sleep last night?
I couldn't sleep .. tossed and turned most of the time @_@ fried in the morning.
about 10, did revision to the last night and had it done early so that I didn't have to worry about it and sleep it off.

Does anyone know the answer to the Antabuse alcoholism question? Don't remember the question exactly.
I put down taste aversion for that

Just curious because I'll be doing Psych 3/4 next year...
Were all these questions that stumped people on the study design [ ie - was the paper fair? ]
Psych's starting to sound much harder than I anticipated :(
