Psychology and
Cognition
• Cognitive capacity is measured generally with intelligence quotient [IQ] test.
• Cognitive theory is interested in how people understand material.
Measuring the theory
Some behaviorist theorists are:
B. F. Skinner
Ivan Pavlov
J. B. Watson
Thorndike
• Thorndike was the first behaviorist.
• The Behaviorist theory depends on the analysis of human behavior.
The theory of stimulus response

Thorndike
Stimulus- Response
“The behaviorist theory of stimulus- response learning, particularly as developed in the operant conditioning model of Skinner, considers all learning to be the establishment of habit as a result of reinforcement and reward.”
Cognitive theory is:
Teacher’s active role
Interested in how students
understand material
Stresses prior knowledge
Involve active thinking
Replaced Behavioristic theory in the
1960s

Divisions of the theory
• Cognitive theory domain is “the student’s intellectual ability.”
• Benjamin Bloom’s cognitive theory is divided into:Analyze Evaluate Create
Apply Understand
Remember
Cognitive theory
Comprehension
Knowledge
Thinking
• A highly complex learning task• The acquisition of learning in
infancy in governed by the acquisition of other habits.
Acquisition
•From Bloom’s research, Shelly concludes that
“Every child has the ability to learn.”
• According to cognitive theory activities like thinking and remembering seem like a behavior.
• It provides an avenue to use behavior analysis to measure their effect of learning.
Behavior is an
activity ofThinking Remembering

Behaviorist theory
• It can be concluded for behaviorist theory that as learning process is complex, language acquisition cannot take place through habit formation.
Conclusion
• Cognitive theory is also the basis of the educational approach known as constructivism, which emphasis the role of the learner in constructing his own view or model of the material, and what helps with that.
