* Neurophysiological Methods * Electroencaphalogram (EEG): electrodes‚ usually embedded in a head cap‚ are attached to the scalp with conductive gel to record electrical brain-wave activity in the brain’s outer layers - the cerebral cortex. * Event-related potentials (ERPs): using EEG‚ the frequency and aplitude of brain waves in response to

nuclei and tracts that border the thalamus. These structures include the amygdala‚ mammillary body‚ hippocampus‚ fornix‚ cortex of the cingulate gyrus‚ septum‚ olfactory bulb‚ and hypothalamus. Papez believed that emotional states are expressed through actions of limbic structures in the hypothalamus and that they are experienced through actions of limbic structures in the cortex.

positioned at the front most region of the cerebral cortex Motor cortex The primary motor cortex (Brodmann area 4) is a brain region that in humans is located in the posterior portion of the frontal lobe. Parietal Lobe •The parietal lobes are superior to the occipital lobes and posterior to the central sulcus (fissure) and frontal lobes. Sensory cortex The primary somatosensory area in the human cortex (also called primary somatic sensory cortex or SI) is located in the postcentral gyrus

Part I: Origins of Psychology In psychology there are several perspectives that are used to describe‚ predict‚ and explain human behavior. The three major psychological perspectives are functionalism‚ structuralism‚ and behaviorism. Functionalism stressed the importance of how behavior functions to allow people and animals to adapt to their environments. They included research that involved direct observation of living creatures in their natural settings. They also studied how psychology could be

Neurons are composed of DNA. Most of the neurons in the cortex are in place by 20 weeks of gestation and its structure becomes fairly defined during the next 12 weeks. Once they are in a place neurons sprout dendrites and axons‚ which are narrow‚ branching fiber like extensions‚ axons sand signals to neurons

B. cerebellum- lies inferior to the cerebrum and occupies the posterior cranial fossa. C. brainstem- that which remains of the brain if the cerebrum and cerebellum are removed. 2. Gyrus- a wrinkle or fold in the cortex of the cerebrum or cerebellum. Sulcus- a groove in the surface of an organ; as in the cerebrum‚ the heart‚ or a bone. 3. Name
