  1. Advanced Placement Psychology Review Ms. Simon

  2. Lesson Plan • Do Now • Review Sensation and Perception • States of Consciousness and Learning • Work together to complete review problems

  3. Do Now: 1) Deafness can result from damage to the inner ear or damage to what area of the brain? A. Connections between the auditory nerve and the auditory cortex of the frontal lobe. B. Connections between the auditory nerve and auditory cortex in the temporal lobe C. Connections between the areas of the sensory cortex that receive messages from the ears and the auditory nerves D. Connections between the hypothalamus and the auditory cortex in the temporal lobe • Connections between the left and right sensory areas of the cerebellum 2) Which chemicals pass across the synaptic gap and increase the possibility that the next neuron in the chain will fire? A) synaptic peptides B) inhibitory neurotransmitters C) adrenaline-type exciters D) excitatory neurotransmitters E) potassium and sodium

  4. 3) You eat some bad sushi and feel that you are losing control over your muscles. The bacteria you ingested from the bad sushi most likely interferes with the use of: A) serotonin B) insulin C) acetylcholine D) thorazine E) Adrenaline 4) The blind spot in our eye results from A) the lack of receptors at the spot where the optic nerve connects to the retina B) the shadow the pupil makes on the retina C) competing processing between the visual cortices in the left and right hemispheres D) retinal damage from bright light E) floating debris in the space between the retina and the lens

  5. AIM: How can we review Sensation, Consciousness and Learning?

  6. Sensation and Perception Key Concepts • Transduction-converting physical stimuli into neural signals

  7. Trichromatic theory- three types of cones (blue, red, and green) • Opponent-processing theory: sensory receptors in pairs (red/green, yellow/blue)

  8. Hearing • Place theory versus frequency theory • Gate-control theory- explains why some pain messages have a higher priority than others Gate-Control Theory

  9. Thresholds • Just noticeable difference • Absolute threshold • Weber’s Law • Signal Detection Theory (False negative, false positive)

  10. Top-down and Bottom-up Processing Top Down: relies on perceptual set I hpoe yuo gte a fvie on teh Avadnced Palecnemt Eaxm. Bottom-up feature analysis

  11. Gestalt Rules Shape and size constancy

  12. Depth Cues

  13. We actively process stimuli without conscious awareness • Mere exposure effect • Priming • Blind sight

  14. Levels of Consiousness • Conscious • Nonconscious • Preconscious • Subconscious • Unconscious

  15. Sleep Cycle Stage 1= Theta Waves Stage 2= Sleep spindles Stage 3+4= Delta (deep) sleep

  16. REM • Rapid eye movement sleep • Paradoxical sleep- brain waves are active, body is rigid

  17. Sleep Disorders • Insomnia • Narcolepsy • Sleep Apnea • Night terrors http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN1_yS6_5T4

  18. Theories of Dreaming • Freudian • Activation-synthesis • Information-processing theory

  19. Drugs

  20. Learning
