114 Followers
The Unit 11: psychological perspectives document explores key concepts in psychology and their applications in health and social care. It covers the behaviourist approach , including classical conditioning and operant conditioning , to explain human behavior and development.
Page 1 Summary
The first page introduces the role of psychologists and the importance of psychology in understanding human behavior. It presents two case studies and introduces the behaviourist perspective in psychology.
Key points:
- Psychologists study mental states and human behavior through various methods.
- Psychology helps clarify why individuals act in certain ways and what triggers their behavior.
- The document presents two case studies: Andy with PTSD and Keira with painkiller addiction.
- The behaviourist perspective suggests that all behavior is learned through reinforcement and punishment.
- Two main procedures in behaviorism are classical conditioning (Pavlov) and operant conditioning (Skinner).
Definition : The behaviourist perspective is the idea that behavior is affected through the environment and learned through stages of reinforcement and possible punishments.
Example : Pavlov's study with dogs demonstrated classical conditioning, where the dogs learned to associate a bell sound with food.
Vocabulary : Classical conditioning - A learning process where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with a natural stimulus to produce a learned response.
Page 2 Summary
This page delves deeper into operant conditioning , a key concept in the behaviourist approach . It explains the process and provides examples of how behavior can be shaped through rewards and punishments.
- Operant conditioning, developed by B.F. Skinner, focuses on learning through consequences of behavior.
- It involves positive and negative reinforcement, as well as positive and negative punishment.
- Skinner demonstrated operant conditioning through experiments with rats in a specially designed box.
Example : Giving a child sweets for finishing homework is an example of positive reinforcement in operant conditioning.
Highlight : Skinner's experiments with rats in a box (now known as a Skinner box) were fundamental in demonstrating the principles of operant conditioning.
Definition : Operant conditioning is the formation of learning through punishments and/or rewards for certain behavior.
This summary provides a comprehensive overview of the Unit 11 psychological perspectives content, focusing on the behaviourist approach and its key theories of classical conditioning and operant conditioning . These concepts are crucial for understanding human behavior in health and social care contexts.

I'm not sure how to contact you, one of the powerpoints has the sociological perspectives slides in it, can you confirm if this is correct? Its the powerpoint titled 'Task 2 behaviour of service users in health and social care settings'. Thanks
Emmariviereprice
Good evening. If you need the psychological perspectives ( not sociological), you will find them in detail in task 1 resources. Task 2 refers to those perspectives in health and social care settings but doesn’t describe them. I hope this helps!

Hi Emma, Resources are brilliant! Full of activities and really helped me get my head around how to deliver this unit. Can I ask how/where you got the Task 2 case studies from? I've had conflicted messages from a few people delivering this unit and how imperative it is that the students actually go on a placement. A few teachers I know have written the studies themselves!
Hello.Thanks for positive feedback on my resources.it is indeed extremely difficult to deliver the new Btec as there isn't that much guidance. I used some psychology textbooks ( A level ones) and the internet to create the case studies. Our students don't have placement and our assignments have been agreed with Btec . I can therefore confirm that your students can only use case studies for their tasks.Best wishes.

The social model focuses on the social impacts of health such as income, education and environment alongside the ease of access to healthcare needs. The Biomedical aspect is a scientific measure in which healthcare professionals focus on the cause of the disease.
