LIST 3 Research Dimensions of Biopsychology

Back 7

Human and Nonhuman Subjects
Experiments and Nonexperiments
Pure and Applied Research

Front 8

Advantages of human subjects for research

Back 8

1) can follow instructions
(2) can report subjective experiences
(3) are often less expensive
(4) have a human brain

Front 9

Advantages of non- human

Back 9

1) have simpler nervous systems
(2) possible to use comparative, cross-species approach
(3) fewer ethical constraints

Front 10

what is comparative approach?

Back 10

The study of biological processes by comparing different species

Front 11

biopsychological research can involve

Back 11

experiments and non-experimental studies (quasiexperimental designs and case studies)

quasiexperimental designs and case studies)

Front 13

What have Physiological psychologists studied?

Back 13

THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE HIPPOCAMPUS TO MEMORY BY SURGICALLY REMOVINGS THE HIPPOCAMPUS IN RATS AN ASSESSING THEIR ABILITY TO PERFORM VAROUS MEMORY TASKS

Front 14

WHAT HAVE PSYCHOPHARMOCOLOGIST TRIED

Back 14

TO IMPORVE MEMORY OF ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS BY ADMINISTERING DRUGS THAT INCREASE THE LEVELS OF THE NEUROTRANSMITTER ACETYLCHOLINE

Front 15

NEURO PSYCHOLOGISTS HAVE SHOWN?

Back 15

THAT PATIENTS WITH ETOH PRODUCED BRAIN DAMAGE HAVE PARTICULAR DIFFICULTY IN REMEMBERING RECENT EVENTS

Front 16

PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGISTS HAVE SHOWN

Back 16

the familar faces elicit the usual changes in ANS activity even when pTS WITH BRAIN DAMAGE REPORT THAT THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE A FACE

Front 17

WHO USES BRAIN-IMAGING TECHNOLOGY TO OBSERVE THE CHANGES THAT OCCUR IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE BRAIN WHILE HUMAN VOLUNTEERS PERFORM MEMORY TASKS

Back 17

COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENTISTS

Front 18

HAVE SHOWN THAT SPECIES OF BIRDS THAT CHACE THEIR SEEDS TEND TO HAVE BIG HIPPOCAMPI, CONFIRMING THAT THE HIPPOCAMPUS IS INVOLVED IN MEMORY FOR LOCATION

Front 26

HAS SEVERE MEMORY LOSS THAT OCCURS IN ALCOHOLICS WHICH IS A DIRECT CONSEQUENCE OF THE TOXIC EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL ON THE BRAIN

Back 26

KORSAKOFF'S SYNDROME

Front 27

KORSAKOFF'S SYNDROME IS LARGELY CAUSED BY

Back 27

THE BRAIN DAMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH THIAMINE (VITAMIN B ) DEFICIENCY

Front 28

WHY DO ALCOHOLICS DEVLOPE KORSAKOFF'S SYNDROME

Back 28

BECAUSE MOST OF THEIR CALORIC INTAKE COMES IN THE FORM OF ETOH WHICH LACKS VITAMINS AND ETOH INTERFERES WITH THE METABOLISM OF WHAT LITTLE THIAMINE THEY CONSUME
