INTRODUCTION ABOUT EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY & PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
MPCL – 007 (MAPC – Ist Year)
A psychological test is an objective and standardized measure of an individual’s mental

and behavioral characteristics. Such characteristics are measured based on the
individual performance on tasks that have usually been prepared beforehand. A score
on a well constructed test is believed to reflect a psychological construct such as
cognitive ability, aptitude, personality, emotional maturity etc.
Construction & standardization of a psychological test, the steps involved are

1. Preliminary survey
2. Planning
3. Writing the test items in the preliminary form
4. Administering the test (pilot study)
5. Item analysis
6. Writing the test items in the final form
7. Establishing reliability and validity
8. Establishing norms
Psychological testing scope

• It is applied in the field such as
• Assessment of education for classifying children based on ability and aptitude
• Selection and classification of industrial personnel (for job assignment, transfer,
promotions etc.
• Industrial counselling for emotional wellbeing
• Detection of intellectual deficiencies
• Diagnosing mental disorders in clinical psychology framework
• In scientific enquiry or research
Development of psychological testing

First large scale test have been conducted in china which assessed candidates. Modern
mental testing began in France in 19 th century, which contributed to the separating
mental retardation from mental illness and reducing the neglect, torture and ridicule
heaped on both groups.
Francis Galton coined the term psychometrics and Eugenius and developed intelligence
test based on non-verbal sensory motor test.
The origins of personality testing dates back to 18th and 19th centuries when personality was
assessed through the measurement of human skill and outer appearances.

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY AND THE SOCIAL COGNITIVE THEORY
INTRODUCTION
These theories try to explain learning in social context, with the main position being that
people acquire new behaviours by observation
1. Social learning theory is an older body of knowledge while the cognitive theory
has a broader scope.
2. Social cognitive theory is attributed to Bandura; social learning theory is a
collection idea from various thinkers
Difference between social learning theory and social cognitive theory

Social cognitive theory is the expanded form of Albert Bandura’s social learning theory
which states that learning can occur by observing a behavior and that the manifestation
of that behavior in the learner is regulated by the triadic reciprocal determinism
between personal (cognitive) factors, the behavior itself, and by the environment
(reinforcement). Meanwhile, social learning theory is a learning theory that proposes
that learning occurs in a social context by means of observation of the behavior and the
consequences that follow it.
Social cognitive theory was proposed by Albert Bandura alone. Social learning theory is
a collective work, with the most contribution coming from Bandura but with earlier
contributions from Neil Miller and John Dollard, Julian Rotter, and Robert Burgess and
Ronald Akers, as well as an influence from cognitive perspectives on learning.
Core concepts in the social cognitive theory are human agency, observational learning
and its four meditational processes (attention, retention, production, motivation),
triadic reciprocal determinism between cognitive, behavioral and environment factors,
and self efficacy. In social learning theory, the core concepts are observational learning,
reinforcement (direct or vicarious), learning as a cognitive-behavioral process, and
identification with a model.
In the social cognitive theory, cognitive factors play an important and equal role with
environmental factors in the acquisition of new behavior and in its production. In social
learning theory, the cognitive factors are only acknowledged to play a role in the
acquisition of new behavior but not much or none at all in its production.
In the social cognitive theory, reinforcement or environmental factors has an equal role
with cognitive factors in the learning and production of behavior. In social learning
theory, consequences and reinforcement play a major role in the acquisition and
production of behavior.
Social cognitive theory has a broader theoretical scope as it includes a conceptualization

of humans as agents capable of shaping their environment and of self regulation. Social
learning theory on the other hand is limited to tackling the learning process in the social
context.

BOBO DOLL EXPERIMENT

Through his famous Bobo Doll Experiments Bandura came to the conclusions that are
now basically the core concepts of modern social learning theory.
1. First, learning occurs by observing the behavior of a model, which includes

extracting information about the observation and deciding on performing the
behavior (modeling or observational learning).
2. Second, behavior can be reinforced by observing the consequences that happen
to the model after the behavior was performed (vicarious reinforcement).
3. Third, observation is a cognitive skill hence learning is a cognitive-behavioral
process.
4. Lastly, a learner observes and copies the model that he or she sees the most
similarity with or has the most emotional attachment with {identification).
Based on the theory

Bandura identified three basic models of observational learning
1. A live model, which involves an actual individual demonstrating or acting out a
behavior.
2. A symbolic model, which involves real or fictional characters displaying behaviors
in books, films, television programs, or online media.
3. A verbal instructional model, which involves descriptions and explanations of a
behavior.

Application of social learning theory

Social learning theory can have a number of real-world applications Research - it can be
used to help researchers understand how aggression and violence might be transmitted
through observational learning. By studying media violence, researchers can gain a
better understanding of the factors that might lead children to act out the aggressive
actions they see portrayed on television and in the movies.
Social change: It can be utilized to teach people positive behaviors. Researchers can use
social learning theory to investigate and understand ways that positive role models can
be used to encourage desirable behaviors and to facilitate social change.
Field of education: Today, both teachers and parents recognize how important it is to
model appropriate behaviors. Other classroom strategies such as encouraging children
and building self-efficacy are also rooted in social learning theory.
Acquire knowledge & skill: Observing others plays a vital role in acquiring new
knowledge and skills. By understanding how social learning theory works, one can gain a
greater appreciation for the powerful role that observation plays in shaping the things
we know and the things we do.
DO YOU THINK VIOLENCE IS CONTAGIOUS?

The violence is the use of the physical Force for the purpose of destroying, damaging,
abusing and injuring the other person
In simple terms it can be said that the violence is contagious and it should be treat ed
just like any other disease. There are many other dimensions which have to be
considered for this. Generally the most common means of the spreading of violence
these days is through the TV, and the social Medias that has been very influential in the
spreading of violence. These two means are heavily used by the people these days, and
this makes it very easy for people to use this platform to encourage people to be
violent. Spreading of violence can be considered just disease since it would spread the
flu which had passed on from one person to another. In this way the person would be
very well efficient in influencing the behavior of another person and activating the
aggression within the person which is at times more aggressive than of the person
responsible for starting the violence. It has been seen in the experiment of the Bobo doll
(Bandura), that girl had been using very innovative ways of hurting the Doll apart from
hitting it.
The violence can be contagious but there are different factors that have to be
considered in addition to that is also very subjective. The upbringing of the people and
the society in which they have grown up also please a very important role in the
responsiveness of the people to the violence. It can also be seen that people who would
always be faithful of the consequences of the violence and not respond to violence by
being violent.
People tend to become violent when the violence is being promoted by an influential
person or a person in power. Those people can encourage a big group of the people to
9
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
be violent, and people think it is okay to be violent, since someone else did the same.
Most of the time it is a young people who are violent since they are naive and do not
fully understand the consequences of violence.
As the one is just like any other contagious disease it can also be treated or prevented.
Means of prevention of the violence can be in the form of avoiding the exposure of the
young people to the violence. The friends also have a very good impact on the behaviour
of the people; all the other others should be increasing the young people to interact
more with the people who are not violent. The youth that is more aggressive should be
treated by teaching them the values of empathy, and providing them with lot of other
support that would eventually change their behaviour, and this will in turn lead to
decrease in violence.
In a nutshell, it can be said that, “ just like a person with a flu passes on flu to the next
person near him.” Same way, one violent person can influence someone’s behavior;
activate the aggression in them which can take more serious form compared to the
person who started it. Like in the famous Bobo doll experiment (Bandura), we saw that
the girl used more innovative ways to hurt the doll in addition to hitting.

My Own Interpretation about True Intelligence after reading the
Sternberg Article & other theories of intelligence
According to Sternberg intelligence theory, practical intelligence with reality focus is

needed to get success for an individual.
“True intelligence means the ability to solve once own or others problems by using
one’s own past experiences, observational learning, weighing the pros and cons and
coming to a conclusion for the solution to be solved”
The issue of COVID-19 virus, made us to think about various ways. It helped us to think
about being precautious with the droplet infection from the air. The virus which we
couldn’t see through our eyes made us to help each other, taught us to work from
home. Helped us to be hygienic. Moreover, it is teaching us to use of gadgets with
internet as a means of communication.
A person getting very good grades in the colleges and school is not a very good measure
of the intelligence as it just shows how well a person is able to solve the problems and
come to a definite answer from the four corners in a building based on the textual
information as it readily available. It shows entries of quick thinking, but it does not
necessarily mean the capability applying the knowledge in dynamic environment.
As a matter of fact, adaptive intelligence is much required than high scores in the test.
Students needs to be aware of the problems existing in the world, thus they should be
the angels of heaven who could fill the requirements of the world by helping hands in
the necessity areas. According to the talents what they had received, as everyone would
be helping one or the other. Thus instead of money minded, or self-oriented, people
should try to come out of new ideas for the benefit. This can create positive vibrations
amidst of COVID - 19 virus issues.
A true intelligent person would be using his knowledge what he gained over his life time
to make correct decisions in the midst of challenges and circumstances. e.g. COVID
taught students to develop Roberts.
COVID-19 showed us that people of intelligent with that of unintelligent people. People
who were going for protesting, who were going to malls, engaging in social functions
with crowd were the culprit of the spreading of infection with or without the knowledge
or seriousness about the diseases.
Even though there were intelligent people, who were far different from the
unintelligent- intelligent people had to sacrifice their life due to the foolishness of
others behavior. Examples - health care workers, police officers, community health line
members etc.
11
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
‘It can be seen that particular way of problem solving can’t be applied to all solutions,
rather regardless of the situations, problem solving should emerge with an idea...’
-GEO
The COVID-19 has also shown that the true measure of Intelligence is the ability of the
person to adapt to the environment. As the pandemic has changed ways of doing the
things, people that were truly intelligent understood the situation and the y made the
changes in the way they were doing things.
Intelligence is an adaptability to live the life with what we have instead of spending and
wasting time with what we don’t have..Even though COVID has brought us lockdown,
the lockdown had given the courage to fight or adapt to what we don’t have. As many of
them couldn’t have gone to job, they created this opportunity to develop an online
business start up by various methods.
e.g. - In education, COVID 19 brought us, virtual reality of using gadgets as their own
classroom, many students have made studies an easy mode of communication by sitting
at home.e.g many rank holders were telling that, they could use this as a time for
developing their knowledge in a smooth way. Further, acquiring degrees through online
become a habit. I think these all point out waste way of using our intelligence in an
adaptable way for the fruitfulness. So adaptability is a term which can be used to define
intelligence in matters of cost, life, health, economy, peace etc. People of unintelligent,
may not adapt themselves with the situations. As a matter of fact which lead to chaos
into one’s life.
True intelligence is a phenomenon which would help us to realize the cost benefit ratio
in terms of everything. One who understands this phenomenon could differentiate the
real value of cost. Thus they would try to reduce the cost in matters to everything.
People, who understand this philosophy, won’t engage in roaming around by spreading
virus and get ourselves sicker, thus it may end up in loosing what he or she has gained
over a period of time.
An intelligent person would be looking at the things from a macro perspective and also
in terms of benefit. So, when we realise that something is not going to work out in a
long run, he or she should try to change that long term benefits to short term... COVID
taught us that saving a lot of money is not well appreciated. Rather, one should make
use of money to get a healthy food, good drinking water etc by cultivating vegetables at
home. A true intelligent person would keep a nominee for himself in-case if anything
happens to him. Thus it won’t make the relatives life a miserable one when one leaves
from this world.
So, intelligence is not what curriculum teach us in books, rather it is making a parallel
line to reach a place when the usual road is blocked. - GEO
A True intelligence is the ability to imagine about the consequences of the problem,
consequences of the behaviours, consequences of our action, in a meaningful way.. in
the midst of COVID -19, one should try to be a learner through observation or
12
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
imaginative way.
Truly intelligent person would know that there is no definite answer to real life
problems, every situation would have to be dealt by considering the various aspects.
This pandemic also taught to think like an eagle,
“The problem is a problem, when the people don’t have the ability to probe the
problem.”- GEO
True intelligence helps us to probe the problem and find a solution. Thus, the pandemic
developed new vaccines, new theories, and new experiments. In other ways “nothing
worth achieved is achieved without effort”.
True intelligence is the ability to have a faith, a belief even in the midst of a crisis or a
problem, as nothing is the end in itself.
Intelligence is the ability to start to miles from the end

• Moreover, true intelligence is the emotional balance, one need to attain or
achieve when the emotions are balanced, one can reach miles before i sleep
become reality.
I agree to the fact that COVID-19 virus has taught us to have an emotional balance to
live in a world of reality than in a world of fantasy or imaginations. That is what a true
intelligence is:
• A true intelligent person would know that each second is a reality to be
accomplished or to live,
• A true intelligence teach us the fact that the person to whom we communicate
or live has got his own boundaries or limits, so nothing should be taken into
granted.
• A true intelligence teach us that life us that ,life is precious irrespective of the
situations,
• True intelligence teaches us that the outward appearance of man is totally
different from what he is.
All the above saying should need to be kept in mind, as we are living with the world of
uncertainty, crime, and enemy. Thus, true intelligence teaches us to have a balance in
various areas of life.
COVID virus, made us to think about being precautious with the droplet infection from
the air. In the same way if we take precautions by using true intelligence in each and
every ways and actions with each and every one, we could prevent so many suicides,
accidents, mental illness, family issues, health issues, bitterness, diseases, etc... Thus
the world would be a better place to live with.
It can be concluded that the knowledge that is learnt by the people in the schools and
universities, cannot measure actual intelligence. “Things that i learnt in the school
13
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
universities are the kind of tools that can be used by the person to creatively come up
with the solution for a problem.” And in truly intelligent person would know that there
is no definite answer to real life problems, every situation would have to be dealt by
considering the various aspects.

LOCUS OF CONTROL
“Personality trait - a person’s stable belief about personal efficacy”

Julian. B. Rotter
INTRODUTION
In 1947, Rotter is the one who first to use the term ‘social learning theory’ a cognitive
approach to behaviorism.
He deals with cognitive process more extensively than Bandura both external stimuli and
the reinforcement they provide can affect as a cognitive factor that affects the nature
and extent of that influence.
AIM
• To test the examinee in relation to the test specific locus of control techniques
• To assess the individual to work to attain goals based on the rewards,
consequences, thoughts, perceptions about outcomes and its likelihood
• To assess the outcome expectancy of positive result
• To measure the reinforcement value of the expected reinforcement
LOCUS OF CONTROL: ASSUMPTIONS

The outcome of our action determines our control
Internal locus of control: it is a belief that outcomes (positive or negative) are brought
about by our own behavior.
External locus of control: it is a belief that outcomes (positive or negative) are under the
control of other people, fate or luck.
LOCUS OF CONTROL AND SELF-EFFICACY

It seems that an internal locus of control goes together with a sense of self efficacy, with
the perception that one has a measure of control over one’s own life. Possibly even, one
could have an internal locus of control in certain areas and not in others. Although an
internal locus of control has generally been found to be more beneficial, extremes at
either end can be a problem, and flexibility (basing our beliefs on the realistic nature of
the situation) is probably the most adaptive style.
DESCRIPTION OF THE TEST

The locus of control test is an online test consisting of 13 items. The subject has to
select one option for each item which best describes how you feel. There is no right or
wrong answer to the statement. The statements relate to everyday situations and aims
to assess the individual’s control over oneself or situations.
MATERIALS REQUIRED
Materials required for this test are online questionnaire for locus of control given by the
IGNOU exam center, an internet facility connected to phone or computer, minimum
time period as per client capability.

PRACTICAL – 6
HALO EFFECT EXPERIMENT
Introduction
Halo effect is a cognitive bias in which our overall impression of a person influences how
we feel and think about their character.
Your overall impression of a person (He is nice) impacts your evaluations of that
person’s Halo effect is a finding in social psychology that concerns the evaluation of a
person (e.g.-she is likable) which bleeds about her judgments about their specific trait
(e.g- she is smart)
It is when we see that someone is attractive and likable, we automatically assume that
they are intelligent or have a friendly personality unless we come across evidence to the
contrary.
Aim
Nisbett and Wilson’s experiment aimed to address and find an answer to the questio n
regarding people’s awareness of the halo effect.
Method
College students were told the research was investigating teacher simulations. They
were then split into two groups to watch a video of a French teacher with a strong
Belgium accent answering a serious of questions. The first group watched a video of a
lecturer answering the questions in an extremely warm and a friendly matter. The
second watched the same lecturer answer the questions in a cold and distant manner.
The experimenters assured that it was obvious which alter-ego was more likeable.
After each group of students watched the videos they were asked to rate the lecturer on
physical appearance, mannerisms and his accent (mannerisms were kept the same
across both videos).
Result
After viewing the interview, subjects were asked how much they think they liked the
teacher. The subjects will be rating him on an 8 point scale ranging from “like
extremely“ to dislike extremely.
Subjects were also told that the researchers were interested in knowing “how much
their liking for the teacher influenced the ratings they just made. Other subjects were
asked to identify how much the characteristics they just rated influenced their liking of
the teacher. Surprisingly, after responding to the questionnaire, the respondents were
puzzled about their reactions to the videotapes and to the questionnaire items.
The students had no clue why they gave one lecturer higher ratings. Most said that how
much they liked the lecturer from what he said had not affected their evaluation of his
individual characteristics at all.
31
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
Conclusion
From the results, the subjects were obviously unaware of the halo effect and the nature
of the influence of global evaluation on their ratings.
HOW IS HALO EFFECT BEING USED TO ONE'S ADVANTAGE

• Make an appealing look
• Through proper attractiveness and appealing, one can influence others through
Halo effect.
• When one try to be good looking, others try to be believe that we have positive
Personality traits: It makes us think that think that they are intelligent.
In a study it was found that, tribunal were less likely to believe that attractive people
were guilty of criminal behavior.
I. If one tries to be good lookers, it can have an impact on the impression in front
others that one is smart, kind and hard working.
II. Halo effect boost to influence our perceptions and decisions
III. Through halo effect one can make impression on our self in front of others, thus
it can influence to make others evaluations to be appealed in politics, classes,
leadership etc.
APPLICATIONS AND COMMON USES OF HALO EFFECT

The halo effects have an impact on a number of real world settings.
Education
Research shows that halo effect play a major role in educational setting.
Halo effect can influence how teachers can treat students, but it can also impact how
students perceive teachers. In one study it was found that when an instructor was
viewed as warm and friendly, students also rated them as more appealing, attra ctive
and likable. So it can be used to increase one’s image in front of others.
a. In the work place

Job applicants are also likely to feel the impact of halo effect. If applicant appeals
to be likable the employer can view and rate the applicant to be intelligent,
competent and qualified.
b. In marketing
When celebrity ambassador endorses a particular item, our positive evaluations
of that individual can spread to our perceptions of the product itself. Thus halo
effect can help marketing people to sell more products.
RELATJONSHJP BETWEEN LEARNED BEHAVTOUR AND HALO EFFECT

The halo effect is described as a cognitive tendency to place particular traits or
expectations on some one based on perceptions of a former trait.
We often interpret that beautiful people are smarter. It is apparent that first
impressions of another affect their success interactions and that one’s expectations
influence another’s behaviour.
32
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
Through the research, the different studies done with infants, school aged student,
adults showed that the way we treat attractive people is a learned behaviour and many
of our choices are made without our knowledge. Even though the halo effect idea is
small, it can affect our major decisions as well as the way we interact with people in our
lives leaves room for lot of issues.
Based on the evidence put forth through the different experiments it can be said that
the halo effect is less wrong and that people are treated differently because of their
level of attractiveness.
As a matter of fact, this is an error in judgement reflects ones individual preferences,

prejudices, ideology and social perception. It is a cognitive bias that occurs when an
initial positive judgement about a person unconsciously colours the perceptions of the
individual as a whole.
When forming the first impression, observing an initial attractive feature- perhaps
beauty or strength- can make the person appealing, making it difficult to revise that
impression based on new or opposing formation.
Example- an attractive individual may also be perceived as interesting, ambitious or
funny whether or not that assessment is correct.
So, it can be inferred that halo effect is a learned behavior which reveal the relationship
between learned behavior and the halo effect.
So, our self using this tool of attractiveness as a widely held idea could be used as a
double-edged sword. Thus, halo effect principles could be learned as a matter of fact
and that could be used as a tool to practice learned behavior
Relationship between learned behavior and halo effect

Observation is a cognitive skill; hence learning is a cognitive-behavioral process.
Through observation, one can or learner can observe and copies the model or leader
whom he tries to persuade. Thus the learner copies the similarities of the model and
imitates it. Thus through the learned behavior of imitating, one copies the halo effect
persons works. Thus he or she will try to copy to get the best impression from others
through the halo effect.
As a matter of fact, it can be easily noticed that there is a strong relationship between
learned behavior and halo effect. Halo effect in other words is a learned behavior of
their own characters through persuasion. Individual try to appeal good in front of others
through their smart look, body color, decent behavior... Thus through their own
appealing, or faking phenomena of learned behavior, one tries to polish themselves in
front of society or people or situation to get the things they want and persuade other.
Through observation, one tries to copy or learn from others. The copying of behavior is
reinforced by the emotional attachment towards that situation in order to get ones
needs he/ she wanted. So it is one person’s needs or wants make him to observe the
way he wants to behave in that particular situation.
33
lOMoARcPSD|29311209
In a nut shell, it’s true that there is a relationship exists between the learned behaviour
and halo effect. Halo- effect in itself is a learned behavior of making the best impression
on others through the cognitive skill. Thus the cognitive mechanism which underlie
beneath the halo-effect is a learned behaviour.
