CHAPTER 1 Intro to :
brain and behavior Jean-Pierre Florens -
father of experimental brain ADDITIONAL TERMS TO KNOW
Monism-belief that mind and brain are not separate science Neuroplasticity-behavior and experiences that alter the
entities but that the mind is an extension of the brain
, .
Hermann Von Helmholtz-measured rate of nerve conduction physical brain.
Dualism -
the belief that mind and brain are separate Paul Broca demonstrated functional localization
-
in the brain Adult neurogenisis -
the creation of new neurons in an
↳ adult brain
neuroscience
-
study of the nervous system BrocalWernickes aphasia.
behavioral neuroscience (blopsych) -
the study that relates Fritsch/Hitzig-discovered motor cortex via,
stimulating dog consciousness -
the state of awareness of one's own thoughts
behavior to bodily processes brains w electrical .
current emotions and experiences
,
THE BIG WIGS Golgi-proposed that neurons are fused together into continuous Ontogeny -
the process by which an individual changes
Hippocrates- believed brain was seat of thoughts and structures (Reticular Theory) In the course of its lifetime -
"grows up and old"
emotion Ramon y Cajal
-
Proved that neural tissue consists of separate Reductionism-breaking a system down into
increasingly
Aristotle -
believed heart was seat of thoughts and cells (The Neuron Doctrine smaller parts in order to understandIt.
emotion , brain served as a cooling organ STUDIES
Galen-suggested brain mediated mental function somatic intervention-changes In body structure or function
Descartes -
dualist but , suggested link between soul which results in a change in behavior
=
and brain. Movement a push from brain , caused by behavioral intervention -
a change in behavior that causes a
the mind (soul change in bodily structure/function
Luigi Galvani-first evidence that nervous system signals Correlation how changes 1 variable are related
examining in

were electrical . to changes in another variable (NOT CAUSATION)
Johannes Miller -
Father of Doctrine of Specific nerve E
.
↳ the mind
has access to objects only ,
to nerves
↳
perceptions depend on nerve energies, reaching the
brain and that the quality we experience depends
on which nerves are stimulated.

a specialized protein that selectively corpus callosum-band of axons connecting the 2 hemispheres
NERVOUS SYSTEM PARTS senses and reacts toa correspondingneurot or hormone Precent gyrus -
In front of central sulcus Vital for motor ,
neuron-the most basic unit of the nervous system axonal transport -
transport of material from cell body to control
synapse
-
the cellular location at which information is axon terminals (and vice versal Postcent .
gyrus-behind central sulcus ,
vital for somato-
transmitted from a neuron to another cell . (synaptic button) Olial cells -
