Question

Read each of the research activities below and match them to one of the 6 subdivisions of biopsychology

(physiological psychology, psychopharmacology, neuropsychology, psychophysiology, cognitive neuroscience, comparative psychology).

1-Investigating which great ape species (chimpanzees, gorillas, and bonobos) is most capable of learning to use American sign language

2-Demonstrating that patients with frontal lobe damage engage in more impulse behaviors and have more frequent emotional outbursts

3-Discovering that the drug ketamine works to relieve depression symptoms much faster than traditional antidepressant drugs

4- Using brain imaging to determine which brain areas are most active when we look at others’ faces

5- Using rats to determine how cutting the connection between the two cerebral hemispheres might affect motor coordination

6- Finding that brain activity changes during different parts of the sleep cycle by using scalp electrodes to perform noninvasive recording of electrical signals

Explanation / Answer

Answer:
1-Investigating which great ape species (chimpanzees, gorillas, and bonobos) is most capable of learning to use American sign language.
: comparative psychology (due to comparison of the behaviour of primates)
2-Demonstrating that patients with frontal lobe damage engage in more impulse behaviours and have more frequent emotional outbursts. : Psychophysiology
3-Discovering that the drug ketamine works to relieve depression symptoms much faster than traditional antidepressant drugs.
: Psychopharmacology (due to use of drug)
4- Using brain imaging to determine which brain areas are most active when we look at others’ faces.
: Neuropsychology.
5- Using rats to determine how cutting the connection between the two cerebral hemispheres might affect motor coordination: physiological psychology (due to use of non-human organism)
6- Finding that brain activity changes during different parts of the sleep cycle by using scalp electrodes to perform noninvasive recording of electrical signals.
: cognitive neuroscience,
