Simularity between sperry and casey |
Both biological psychology Sperry investigated consequences on perception and memory of split brain operations. Casey investigated differences in areas of brain activity that linked to being able to delay gratification. |
|
|
Purpose of using Correlation in Maguire |
To explore a relationship between the measured variables of time spent as a taxi driver and the volume of the hippocampus. |
|
|
What did the correlation indicate? |
The longer the taxi driver the larger in volume the posterier hippocampul |
|
|
One difference between Sperry and Casey |
Different study methods Sperry was a longitudinal study investigating delay gratification Casey was single participant experiments investigating memory and perception. |
|
|
Why did Casey participants undergo the procedure? |
To stop their severe epilepsy by reduce the spread if epileptic seizures from one side to the other. |
|
|
In casey, how was quantative data gathered? |

Two controls in blakemore and cooper? |
1. the kittens were reared in darkness 2. the kittens were unable to see their own limbs |
|
|

animals have seperate rights to humans, they must have pain and distress limited as much as possible. In the study, they experiences stress being in unnatural environments and being seperated from parents. Also the result was not expected, so it had a high risk for low scientific gain initially. |
|
|
Blakemore aim? |
To see whether kittens raised in an enivroment of vertical or horizontal stripes would develop normal vision |
|
|
Maguire Blakemore Simularity |
Both were focused on brain plasticity with control over IV. Maguire involved pairing taxi drivers Blakemore involved keeping them in the dark |
