PTSD
Name DSM criteria that separate PTSD from other anxiety disorders?
Criterion A:
The person was exposed to: death, threatened death, actual or threatened serious injury, or actual or threatened sexual violence, in the following way(s):
Identify this path: Attention, Encoding, Storage, Retrieval
Path to long-term memory
This brain region was thought by Descarte to be the center of consciousness that integrated the mind and body.
The pineal gland.
Name the study that investigated modeling aggressive behavior in children.
BoBo doll experiment by Albert Bandura (1961)
These can be produced by leading questions.
False memory
The percentage of individuals with PTSD and a comorbid illnesses
80%
2 primary ways episodic memory is assessed in human research
Recall & recognition
This brain region is involved in pain perception, error monitoring, fear conditioning, and cognitive control.
Dorsal anterior cingulate cortex.
A form of aggression (or an offshoot of aggression) that can either motivate improving performance or lead to negative consequences in feelings and behavior.
Frustration
The name for the effect where we focus on central emotional details at the expense of memory for the surrounding peripheral details.
Weapon focus
The presentation of two or more diseases or medical conditions .
Comorbidity
Area of the brain that is involved in pattern separation. Deficits in this region are associated with development of PTSD
Dentate gyrus
This theory says that our decisions arise from our bodies and our minds! Specifically, the integration of peripheral information in our brain that form emotions.
Somatic marker hypothesis
Name 2 or more subtypes of aggression
Reactive-impulse subtype
Reactive-inexpressive subtype
Controlled-instrumental subtype
This laboratory task is commonly used to investigate the suppression of specific memories.
Think/No think
The 2 dominant models of the development of PTSD
Associative learning/Sensitization
Branch of long-term memory that involves conditioning and priming
Non-declarative (implicit)
Name of the hypothesis that suggests our brains are wired for social connection.
Social brain hypothesis
Neurosurgery for intractable aggression in the 1960s involved mechanical and irreversible destruction of this brain region.
the amygdala
Memory overconfidence
Regions of the brain that are hyperactive & hypoactive in those with PTSD
Hyperactive: Dorsal anterior cingulate cortex/Amygdala
Hypoactive: Ventromedial PFC/Hippocampus
A boundary condition for this neurobiological memory process includes a memory that is very old.
Reconsolidation
What novel strategy utilizing attention has been utilized to improve depressive and anxiety symptoms?
Attention bias modification training
The hormone that decreases the refractory period of neurons in the amygdala
Testosterone
Suppressing a memory leads to increases in activation in which brain region
dorsolateral PFC
