CHAPTER 1: A BRIEF HISTORY OF COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1.1 EXPLAIN THE ORIGINS OF THE FIELD OF COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE.
1.2 DESCRIBE THE ROOTS OF THE DEBATE OVER LOCALIZATION OF FUNCTION.
1.3 EXPLAIN THE WAYS IN WHICH BRAIN STRUCTURE WAS STUDIED.
1.4 UNDERSTAND THE PHILOSOPHICAL ORIGINS OF COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY.
1.5 DISCUSS BEHAVIORISM AND ITS PRINCIPAL TENETS.
1.6 EXPLAIN HOW AND WHY COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY CAME TO THE FOREFRONT OF THE
PSYCHOLOGICAL FIELDS.
