Studying the Brain & Behavior
Anatomy & behavior Damage behavior changes Structural differences behavior
Activity & behavior Behavior record activity Change activity behavior?
Correlation vs experimentation causality ~

Brain Damage & Behavior
Experimental ablation Lesion brain behavior change?
Karl Lashley search for ingram (memory trace) concluded function not localized
Problems multiple areas involved may lesion tracts passing through ~

Anatomy & Behavior: Modern Techniques
CAT (CT) scan computer axial tomography x-rays of brain
Advantages noninvasive patient still alive
Disadvantages same causality problems resolution ~

Brain Activity & Behavior
Record activity during behavior EEG
electroencephalograph reads electrical activity of brain

Brain Activity & Behavior PET scan
Positron Emission Tomographymetabolic activityradioactive 2-deoxyglucose
Disadvantages spatial/temporal resolution correlational ~

Brain Activity & Behavior : fMRI
Functional MRI detects increases in oxygen use
Advantages anatomy & activity High resolution spatial & temporal
Disadvantages correlational ~

Brain Activity & Behavior
Change activity change behavior? Electrical Stimulation of Brain (ESB)
Fritz & Hitzig Olds & Milner
Advantage experimental
Disadvantage invasive ~

Brain Activity & Behavior Experimental Psychopharmacology
chemically change activity learn about drugs or use drugs to learn about brain &
behavior Block dopamine receptor
movement effects? learning effects?
Combine with behavioral tests ~
