I am looking for some visual images of Seligman's (or others) learned helplessness experiments (for use in my high school psychology class powerpoint presentations). Any suggestions? THANK YOU

Besides any of a number of textbooks or journal and magazine articles, one of the first places I'd go is right to the horse's mouth -- contact Martin Seligman or one of his associates at the The Martin Seligman Research Alliance, http://www.psych.upenn.edu/seligman/ , "a not-for-profit organization located at the University of Pennsylvania." See if they have a module already prepared.
