top down/bottom up
this method involves senses up to cognitive processing
what is bottom up
what is the purpose of the abstract of a research paper
what is give a 250 word or less summary of the paper
what part of the brain is associated with cognitive reappraisal
what is the prefrontal cortex
What disappears as soon as you say its name?
what is silence
this method involves thinking that can impact amygdala activation
what is top down
what is the purpose of the introduction
what is to introduce the terms that will be used in the study and explain the topic and eventually give the aim of the paper
mindfulness decreases activation of this brain region
what is the amygdala?
How can the number four be half of five?
IV, the Roman numeral for four, which is “half” (two letters) of the word five.
this process can look like dancing or jumping for joy
what is bottom up
why is the methodology part of a paper important for someone who wants to remake the study and also for someone who wants to understand the results of the paper
remake: the researcher needs to understand exactly how the research was done so they can remake it
understand: the person needs to make sure the way the research was conducted can allow for the conclusions that were made
stress impairs function of this brain area
what is the prefrontal cortex
I have keys, but no locks and space, and no rooms. You can enter, but you can’t go outside. What am I?
what is a keyboard
this process starts in the prefrontal cortex (not just top down bottom up - something more specific!)
what is cognitive reappraisal
this is what is covered in the discussion section of a paper
what is a summary of the results, accounting for some limitations, and making generalized conclusions/implications for what the research means for the future
what is one pro and con of fMRI
pros: non-invasive, great spatial resolution
cons: not good temporally, only correlation not causation
How many letters are in the alphabet?
11 letters
what is bottom up processing? deep breathing? slow walk/movement? progressive muscle relaxation? 5-4-3-2-1 senses?
what are the different methodology we have learned for psychological vs neuroscience papers
what is one pro and con of brain stimulation
pro: can demonstrate causal, good for timing and location
con: interconnected brain regions --> complicated results, invasive
