Document Summary
Chapter 7 how do we study the brian"s structures and functions. 7. 1 measuring and manipulating brain and behaviour. Neuropsychology: study of the relations between brain function and behavior, especially in humans. Behavioral neuroscience: study of the biological bases of behavior in humans and other animals. A major challenge to behavioral neuroscientists is developing methods for studying both typical and atypical behavior. Measuring behavior in humans and laboratory animals differs in large part because humans speak: investigators can ask them about their symptoms. It is also possible to use both paper-and-pencil and computer-based tests to identify specific symptoms in people. The development of the fields of animal learning and ethology, the objective study of animal behavior, especially under natural conditions, provided the basis for modern behavioral neuroscience. Neuropsychological tests of three distinct forms of memory: Three tests based on a task devised by richard morris. Place learning, the rat must find the platform from any starting location in the pool.
