14. Essay 22.1 Penfield's mapping • Wilder Penfield, of the Montreal Neurological Institute, was one of the group of researchers who fascinated scientific world by stimulating the human brain with electrodes. • Most of work was done on epileptic (癲癇) patients. The nervous system

15. Epileptic patients • the attacks are caused by uncontrolled neural discharges from the injured area sporadically surging through the brain. • Penfield's surgery was an attempt to identify and remove the damaged area without damaging other areas of the brain. • The patients were conscious throughout the operation (the brain can not feel pain) and could respond to questions when various parts of their brain were stimulated. The nervous system

16. Essay 22.1 Penfield's mapping • Penfield was able, in effect, to "map" the brain, to determine which parts are associated with specific functions. • Penfield found that the human brain may "remember" virtually everything it has ever experienced, and that these memories can be elicited in very specific terms. • We all have what are called "photographic memories" to an extent. The nervous system

17. Penfield has described the storage of such memories as being similar to recording by a tape recorder. • The recorder is able to run only forward, and it has only one speed. • Electrode stimulation cannot elicit events in any sequence other than the one in which they happened, and, when elicited, these remembered events are re-experienced at the same rate they occurred. The nervous system

18. Two Brains, Two minds? • Fig. 22.9 The right and left sides of the brain control, in a general way, different abilities. • 左腦：言語、理性、作文 • 右腦：音樂、三度空間感、直覺、想像 The nervous system

23. Fig. 22.13 The sensory System detects the presence of a bear and relays that information to the cerebrum, where the bear is recognized as such. The hypothalamus and sympathetic nervous system are then activated, which stimulates the adrenal medulla to secrete norepinephrine. The nervous system

29. Autonomic Learning • Researchers of Rockefeller University were able to teach rats to increase or decrease heart rate, blood pressure, intestinal contractions, blood vessel diameter, and even rate of urine formation. • The ones in the desired direction were rewarded by electrical stimulation of the "pleasure center" of the brain; variations in the other direction were punished by a slight but unpleasant shock. The nervous system

30. Some of the amazing feats accomplished by some practitioners of yoga, such as when they drastically lower their metabolic rate, may be due to autonomic learning (Fig. 22.14) • Fig. 22.14 Yogis may work their wonders by using autonomic learning to alter the condition of their tissues. The nervous system

31. Biofeedback • People are provided with information that allows them to monitor their autonomic processes and control them. • For example, when given information on their brainwaves, they may learn to consciously generated those waves that indicate restfulness and peace (Fig. 22.15) Fig. 22.15 腦波 (a) wakeful (b) at rest The nervous system

32. Here, an entire football team reduces stress before a game with techniques learned through biofeedback training. Fig. 22.15 Biofeedback techniques allow the subject to monitor his or her brainwaves and thus to increase the likelihood of generating waves of a specific type, such as those associated with relaxation. The nervous system

33. Mindbenders • Drugs are psychoactive agents: that is, they can alter mood, memory, attention, control, judgement, time-and space sense, emotion, and sensation. • Most cause effects that can be placed along a continuum between stimulation and depression (Fig. 22.16). The nervous system

34. Fig. 22.16 (上半部 stimulation)A continuum of drug action. The effects are shown at left, the various agents at right. The neutral area is drug free. The nervous system

36. Essay 22.2 pills and personalities • Do you ever feel dumb? If so, maybe there's a pill in your future. • Are you ever impulsive(衝動)? 購買慾？ • Are you shy? Forgetful? • 這些都有各別的藥丸。 The nervous system

37. 藥丸的功效 • A shy child may have an easily stimulated amygadala. • Shy children my also produce too much of the excitatory neurotransmitter norepinephrine. A drug that blocks the receptors for epinephrine at the synapse could help. • Too little serotonin leading to fewer social invitations. The nervous system

38. Other drugs can reduce obsessive behavior (強迫性行為) (such as constant and needless cleaning), impulsiveness (that can lead to shoplifting, or kleptomania 竊盜狂), and anxiety (焦慮). • There are drugs that can help concentration, increase memory, and stimulate other traits that can increase IQ scores on tests. • Will a changed person still be the same person? If someone is to be changed, who decides? Is it good or bad? The nervous system

39. The growth of psychopharmacology • Tree advances have propelled the growth of psychopharmacology. • (1) there is good evidence that emotion springs from the activity of neurotransmitters operating in certain parts of the brain • (2) we have abundant information regarding which part of the brain controls what emotions. • (3) we're learning which transmitters operated in each of those areas. The nervous system

40. Tabacco • Tabacco is the dried leaf of the plant Nicotiana tabacum. • Over 6800 different chemicals are found in tobacco smoke, many of them carcinogens. • The major psychoactive product nicotine is carcinogenic. • In large doses, nicotine may also cause cramps(抽筋), vomiting(嘔吐), diarrhea(腹瀉), dizziness(頭昏), confusion(困惑), and tremors(發抖). The nervous system

41. Smoking • The development of the smoking habit is curious. 另外就是香煙強力廣告的誘惑。 • Smoking may cause physiological and psychological dependence on the products in the smoke. The nervous system

47. Essay 22.3 The hangover (宿醉) • A hangover is a seemingly interminable but temporary chemical imbalance in the body, caused by alcohol acting as an anesthetic on the central nervous system. The nervous system

48. This person is in a stupor(昏迷)at this point but has been tied down because he can be expected to be violent should be ever awaken. • Fig. 22.21 Admitted to a hospital as a result of an overdose of barbiturates. The nervous system

The hangover (宿醉) • A dilation of blood vessels in the brain, the movement of water, potassium, and other ions from the cell outward to the intercellular spaces, depletion of magnesium form the kidneys, and inflammation of the stomach lining. • The results are headache, insatiable thirst, upset stomach, fatigue, grouchiness(嘮叨), and perhaps remorse(懊悔). • The morning-after drink provides superficial relief while slowing down recovery.
