Answer: (A) Non-human animals
2 Where did Aristotle believe that mental sensations arose from?
(A) The liver
(B) The ventricles
(C) The brain
(D) The heart
Answer: (D) The heart
3 Why might someone pre-register an fMRI analysis plan?
(A) So others can reproduce the analysis
(B) To permit a meta-analysis
(C) To avoid p-hacking
(D) To avoid the file-drawer problem
Answer: (C) To avoid p-hacking
4 Who has argued that functional imaging cannot inform cognitive theory because the latter does not
make anatomical predictions?
(A) Coltheart (2004)
(B) Henson (2005)
(C) Dehaene et al. (2001)
(D) Raichle (1998)
Answer: (A) Coltheart (2004)
5 The likely reason why the brain uses parallel search (e.g. in word recognition), over serial search, is
because of:
(A) Unlimited cognitive resources
(B) Slow neural response time
(C) Sensory bottleneck
(D) Poor spatial resolution
, CH 01 5e
Answer: (B) Slow neural response time

(C) Mathematical modelling of networks
(D) Reductionism
Answer: (C) Mathematical modelling of networks
7 What is meant by “reductionism”
(A) Mind and brain are two different levels of explanation for the same thing, but not two different
kinds of thing
(B) The idea that different regions of the brain perform different functions
(C) The belief that mind-based concepts will eventually be replaced by purely biological constructs
(D) The belief that the mind and body are composed from different types of substance
Answer: (C) The belief that mind-based concepts will eventually be replaced by purely biological
constructs
8 Just as reaction times are speeded up by the subliminal presentation of the same visual word
beforehand, brain activation in which region is more efficient under the same circumstances?
(A) Left fusiform cortex
(B) Right caudate nucleus
(C) Bilateral hippocampus
(D) Retrosplenial cortex
Answer: (A) Left fusiform cortex

(B) Influenced by top-down processing
(C) Domain specificity
(D) Rapid processing
Answer: (B) Influenced by top-down processing
10 What is meant by a “domain-specific” process?
(A) A process that operates on one specific type of information
(B) More advanced stages of processing can influence more basic ones
(C) Hierarchical processing in which smaller pieces of information combine into bigger ones
