Lecture 1+3 NP Flashcards
simple RT task mechanism
perception -> response
go/no go task mechanism
perception -> discrimination -> response
discrimination or choice RT task
perception -> discrimination -> selection -> response
criticism RT tasks
the fallacies of pure insertions, sommige mental processes may be involved in these tasks
single dissociation assumes … and double dissociation assumes …
serial organization of functions
two independent processes
2 criteria for dissociation
- performance on one task differs significantly from the normative scores
- differences between performance on task A and B differ significantly
structural imaging =
anatomical visualisation and analysis
functional imaging =
brain activity and functioning
5 soorten structural imaging
CT
MRI
DTI (diffusion tensor imaging)
VBM (voxel based morphometry)
MRS (functional magnetic resonance spectometry)
5 soorten functional imaging
fMRI
EEG
PET
MEG
ERP
spatial resolution =
sharpness (lagere getallen = betere resolutie!)
temporal resolution =
speed (lagere getallen = sneller!)
dus welke getallen zijn beter bij resolutie
lagere getallen!
welke hebben de beste temporal resolution
EEG en MEG
(maar juist weer hoge spatial: dus op level van brein ipv neurons)
welke hebben de laagste temporal resolution
SPECT
PET
MRI
fMRI
(duurt lang! bv PET: inspuiten)
hoe werkt CT vs MRI
CT= multiple x rays (= radiation)
MRI = magnetic fields
voor welke soort lichaamsdelen CT vs MRI
CT = bone, soft tissue if dye is used
MRI = soft tissue
dus botbreuk = ct!
time for CT vs MRI
CT = quick
MRI = depends, between 15 min - 2 hr
costs CT vs MRI
CT goedkoper, MRI expensive
