Module 1:

The study of how people perceive, learn, remember and think about information. Cognitive
Psychology
The founder of structuralism in psychology. Wilhelm Wundt
The father of behaviorism. John Watson
Proponent of operant conditioning. B.F Skinner
Focuses only on the relation between observable behavior and environmental events or stimuli.
Behaviorism
General knowledge of things. Semantic
It led to superior performance in tests of both factual and particularly conceptual understanding.
Note Taking
Our overall experience is determined by combining basic elements of experience which were
called sensations. Structuralism
Is the amount of time that elapses between the presentation of a sensory stimulus and a behavioral
response. Reaction Time
Created a machine that behaves in ways that would be called intelligent as if a human were so
behaving. John McCarthy

Interleaving is the act of retrieving information from memory. False

What advice might John B. Watson have offered to psychologists of his time? Focus on
observable behavior
Psychologists were intrigued by the tantalizing notion that machines could be programmed to
demonstrate the intelligent processing of information. Memory and Forgetting
Which school of psychology questioned whether psychologists should study the mind?
Behaviorism
Structural Models represents process that are involved in cognitive mechanisms. False
John McCarthy engineered a program that could think like a proper human mathematician. False
William James' contribution to the field of psychology was a single book. True
Mind is a system that creates __________________ of the world so that we can act within it to
achieve our goals. Representations
The school of behaviorism attempted to explain behavior by studying. How a specific stimulus
evokes a specific response
What are the 3 components of Long - Term Memory? Semantic, Procedural and Episodic
Who claimed that behavior is affected by reinforcement? B.F. Skinner
Is the amount of time that elapses between the presentation of a sensory stimulus and a behavioral
response. Reaction Time
According to ___________ our overall experience is determined by combining basic elements of
experience which were called SENSATIONS. Structuralism
Is a way of looking inward and examining one’s internal thoughts and feelings. Introspection

Module 2:
The hindbrain is divided into the cerebellum, pons, and the __________. Medulla Oblongata
The area that serves as a connection between neurons is called the _____________. Synapse
The lobe which is responsible in the perception of touch, pressure and pain. Parietal Lobe
The lobe which is responsible for processing auditory information and comprehension. Temporal
Lobe
Sends and receives signals or nerve impulses from your brain. Neurons
Involves the addition of new neurons and re-organization of information processing areas.
Neuroplasticity
Is the field of Psychology which aims to understand how behavior and cognition are influenced by
brain functioning that is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of people with brain damage.
Neuropsychology
If the brain is damaged in the Broca's Area _________ is affected. Speech
If the brain is damaged in the Wernicke's Area _______ is affected. Comprehension
An imaging technique in which doctors use in order to examine the blood vessels of the brain.
Brain Angiogram.

Field of Psychology that aims to understand how behavior and cognition are influenced by brain
functioning that is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of people with brain damage.
Neuropsychology
All of the following methods pertain to metabolic imaging techniques, except
___________________. Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
Branchlike structures that receive information from other neurons. Dendrites
Recorded from the scalp and is especially suitable to study the synchrony and thereby functional
connectivity between certain cortical brain areas. Electroencephalogram (EEG)
The frontal lobe of the cerebral hemispheres is associated with all of the following processes,
except ______________. Contains numerous visual areas
The following are associated with occipital lobe, except ______________________. It also
receives inputs from the neurons regarding touch, pain, temperature.
The patient says "none" instead of nine; says "mos" instead of mouse. He has trouble speaking
fluently but his comprehension can be relatively preserved. What specific area of the brain is
damaged? Broca's Area
All of the following methods pertain to static imaging techniques, except
__________________.electroencephalograms (EEG)
Reticular formation and brainstem are localized in ________________. hindbrain
All of the following illustrate the cerebral cortex, except _______________. It is the same as
cerebrum.
All of the following comprises the forebrain, except _________. medulla oblongata
Which of the following pertains to the features of temporal lobe? All of these.
The following describes the condition of people with Wernicke's aphasia, except
_______________. They respond with correct/ precise and comprehensive statements.
These are chemical messengers for transmission of information across the synaptic gap to the
receiving dendrites of the next neuron. Neurotransmitters
Vascular disorder is a brain disorder caused by ________________, occur when the flow of blood
to the brain undergoes a sudden disruption. Stroke
It occurs when a build-up of fatty tissue occurs in blood vessels over a period of years, and a piece
of this tissue breaks off and gets lodged in arteries of the brain. Ischemic Stroke
It occurs when a blood vessel in the brain suddenly breaks. Blood then spills in the surrounding
tissue. As blood spills over, brain cells in the affected area begins to die. Hemorrhagic Storke
A type of brain injury wherein the skull remains intact, but there is damaged to the brain. Closed
Head Injury
Common symptoms of this disorder is nausea, problems balancing or walking, problems with
memory and changes in mood personality or ability to concentrate. Brain Tumor.
All of the following comprises the hindbrain, except ____________. Cerebrum
