scientific foundations and biological bases of behavior
Across
- 3. our subjective awareness of ouorselves and our environment
- 8. the neuron extension. the long stuff in between the cell body and the terminal branches
- 10. Circumstances and events that threaten individuals and tax their coping abilities
- 11. The brain's special capacity for modification and change
- 13. a sample that fairly represents the population because everyone has an equal chance
- 14. All those in a group being studied
- 15. a condition resulting from surgery that isolates the brain's two hemispheres
- 16. Linked ideas set to explain something and predicts behaviors and events
- 17. the little brain
- 18. what you do to prove a theory
- 19. the level of stimulation required to trigger neural impulse
- 21. the factor that is manipulated in an experiment
- 22. a flawed sampling process that produces an unrepresentative sample
- 24. the bushy branching extensions that receive and integrates messages
Down
- 1. the outcome that is measured in an experiment
- 2. A way to record behavior in naturally occurring situations without controlling the situation
- 3. A study where one individual or group is studied in depth in hope of revealing universal principles
- 4. examples: dopamine, serotonin, GABA
- 5. the group not exposed to treatment that serves as comparison to the experimental group
- 6. the brain and spinal cord
- 7. the group exposed to treatment. the group experimented with
- 9. Testable prediction
- 12. the part of the neuron that contains the nucleus
- 20. controls breathing, reflexes
- 23. set of questions to obtain self reported data of a particular group
