Question 1

1 / 1 pts

For Mach, physical things are

objects that produce sensations in us;

names for groups or complexes of sensations;

substances in which primary perceptual qualities inhere;

substances in which secondary perceptual qualities inhere.

Question 2

1 / 1 pts

For Mach, sensations are

the ultimate constituents of the universe;

merely subjective effects produced in us by external objects;

internal events that must be projected into the external world;

confused representations of the external world.

Question 3

1 / 1 pts

For Mach, the role of science was

to explain phenomena;

to manipulate phenomena;

to describe phenomena;

to produce theories.

Question 4

1 / 1 pts

For Mach, the self or ego is

a name that we give to a group of sensations;

the underlying psychological entity that experiences sensations;

that part of the mind that is conscious;

that part of the mind that is rational.

Question 5

1 / 1 pts

For Titchener, attention was

a psychological process that made some sensations clearer than others;

merely a word that designated the fact that some sensations are stronger than others;

the process that selected some parts of the perceptual stream over others;

the process that enabled participants to remain alert and sensitive to perceptual information.

Question 6

1 / 1 pts

For Titchener, introspection was rigorously scientific because
i) it stuck as closely as possible to the actual facts of experience;
ii) it did not require inference as to any processes that might lie behind experience;
iii) it used trained observers rather than naïve participants;
iv) it was the only way of falsifying psychological theories.

Question 7

1 / 1 pts

For Titchener, psychological processes can be causally explained with reference to

the active processing of a perceiving and thinking subject;

physiology;

preceding psychological states;

the underlying structural principles of the mind.

Question 8

1 / 1 pts

Titchener's structuralism fell out of favour because

psychologists rejected the idea of atomistic sensations;

psychologists rejected its positivist underpinnings;

new technology made it obsolete;

it did not seem to have any real world applications.

Question 9

1 / 1 pts

Titchener's view of psychology differed from that of Wundt in that Titchener believed
i) that controlled experimental introspection was the method for psychology;
i). that even complex mental phenomena could be investigated in the laboratory;
iii) that psychological states should be explained in terms of physiology rather than in terms of psychological causality;
iv) that the mind structured experience according to innate laws.

Question 10

1 / 1 pts

Titchener viewed the goal of psychology as

the discovery of the underlying principles that structure conscious experience;

the prediction of behaviour in specific circumstances;

the application of theory to real world situations such as education and mental health;

the breaking up of complex experience into its constituent psychological elements.
