nucleus in the amygdala is the receives input from the thalamus
An
emotional response consists of these three components.
Phineas
Gage could be considered the first documented case of a person receiving one of
these - although not intentionally.
The
amygdala may regulate the autonomic components of emotional response through
it’s connection to this.
Damage
to this area would result in volitional facial paresis.
Serotonin
has this type of effect on aggression.
What is the
James-Lange theory of emotion?
What evidnece
supports this theory?
What is the
role of the right hemisphere in recogntion of emotion?
What is the
role of the frontal lobe?
Chapter 13:
Learning & Memory
Describe the
Hebb rule.
This strutcure
plays a major role in memory and learning.
The entorhinal
cortex contains many of these cells.
Define learning.
Define and
describe 4 types of learning.
To make
stronger.
Describe the
process of LTP.
Describe the
contribution of NMDA receptors and non-NMDA receptors in LTP
What is the
role of the inferior temporal lobe in STM?
What is the
role of the prefrontal cortex?
What is the
role of ACh in learning and memory.
What is the
role of Dopamine?
Differentiate
between classical and operant conditioning.
Define the

What is the
importance of the basal ganglion for learning?
Memory
Distinguish
between implicit and explicit memory.
This type of
memory typically lasts less than a second.
The amount of
information that can be held in STM.
The higher
probability of recall associated with the last few items in a list.
According to
Milner what role does the hippocampus play in memory?
Remembering how
to ride a bike is an example of this type of memory.
Remembering the
definition of the term "consolidation" is an example of this type of
memory.
These cells in the
hippocampus are sensitive to spatial location.
What distinguishes
relational learning from other types of learning?
Confabulation
may result form damage to this part of the brain.
Describe
the role of different neurotransmitters in learning and memory
