| learned helplessness | negative thinking because of past experiance (a person tring to get out of the jail, but fails everytime) produces three kinds ofe deficits 1. motivational ( don't initioate many responses) 2. cognitive ( knowing that you have no control over the situation because you want to escape the consinquences) 3. emotional ( learningthat you have no control produces passivity and perhaps depression) ( helpless animals show lower levels of aggresion loss of appetite and weight and a variety o phycological changes in nuerotransmital levels) |
