Before going out on break, I provided you with a vocabulary list with your winter break homework. You need to know these terms for Friday's test. Using Quizlet will help!
In addition to the vocabulary words, ensure that you understand the following:
-The differences among the three dream theories: Freudian (psychoanalytic), information-processing, and activation-synthesis. Understand which theories are modernly accepted.
-Hypnosis
-vocabulary related to hypnosis (e.g., posthypnotic suggestion)
-Is hypnosis a successful therapy?
-Psychoactive drugs (the Quizlet flash card set is incredibly valuable for this section)
-know the types (e.g., opiates, stimulants, depressants, and hallucinogens) and examples in each category
-tolerance, withdrawal, physical dependency, psychological dependency
-Sleep disorders: symptoms, treatment, which ones are most common, in which sleep stage the disorder occurs
-Sleep stages: Stages 1-4 and REM (sometimes referred to as stage 5), brain activity at each stage, REM rebound
-Priming
-Circadian rhythms
Your essay will ask you to write about one of your dreams from your dream journal, so make sure you have your journal with you on Friday. The essay will need to include various explanations and applications of the three major dream theories.
The test will be about 20-30 multiple choice questions and an essay. You will have 40 minutes to complete the exam. Bring your textbook to read the next assignment if you finish testing early.
