Neurophysiology and Psychophysiology by G. C. Galbraith,M. L. Kietzman,E. Donchin Pdf

Originally published in 1988, in several respects this book is a tribute to the outstanding career of the late Donald B. Lindsley (1907-2003) who, over a span of more than 55 years, had contributed greatly to the development of research in the fields of neurophysiology, psychophysiology, and experimental psychology. The impetus for the book was a conference held at UCLA to honor Professor Lindsley for his numerous and significant contributions to psychology. The chapters of this book have been written by Professor Lindsley’s colleagues and co-workers, and by former students and postdoctoral fellows. The introductory chapter, written by Lindsley himself, tells of 2000 years of "pondering". The chapter is a discussion of the lengthy history of neurophysiology, psychophysiology, and behaviour. Many of the topics mentioned in this chapter are subsequently presented in the book as reports of ongoing research in the field.

Cognitive Psychophysiology: Event-Related Potentials and the Study of Cognition by Emanuel Donchin Pdf

Originally published in 1984, Cognitive Psychophysiology: Event-related Potentials and the Study of Cognition is the first volume to come out of The Carmel Conferences: designed to examine in detail the assertion that the endogenous components of the Event-Related Brain Potential (ERP) can serve as a tool in the analysis of cognition. The intent of this book was to examine on a rather broad front the claims of cognitive psychophysiology to a niche in the domain of cognitive science. Discussions included: selective attention; the ERP and decision and memory processes; preparatory processes; mental chronometry; perceptual processes; individual differences and clinical applications. It provides an interesting snapshot of the status of ERP research just as it was venturing assertively into cognitive science.

Preparatory States and Processes by Sylvan Kornblum,Jean Requin Pdf

Preparation is a term that is used quite freely during private, informal discussions. As the argument becomes more formal and more public, “priming,” “ feed-forward” and similar jargon terms take its place, presumably because they are better defined, safer, and more acceptable. However, in spite of the caution that surrounds its use, it is clear that “preparation” denotes a useful concept. The purpose of the Franco-American Conference on Preparatory States and Processes was to try to clarify this concept by inviting investigators from different specialties in the behavioral and neural sciences to present and discuss illustrations of the use of the concept from their own work. First published in 1984. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

Psychophysiology by N. P. Bechtereva Pdf

Psychophysiology: Today and Tomorrow focuses on the most important theoretical aspects and practical outlets of the problem, as well as the main potentialities and interests of psychophysiology. Organized into 23 chapters, this book begins with the identification of component systems for syntax, verbal memory, focusing attention, and a system common to sequencing motor movements and phonemic discrimination. Subsequent chapter elucidates neurophysiological correlates of mental processes in man. Other chapters explore relations between electrical brain rhythms and behavior; brain exploration in psychophysiology; potentialities of neurophysiology in study and cure of mental disorders in epilepsy; and structural analysis of non-verbal thinking in man. The neuropharmacological analysis of the brain's functional organization in processes of formation and retrieval of memory engrams; role of neuropeptides in synapsomodification; and levels of functioning of transmitter systems and epileptogenesis are also explained.

Electrophysiology and Psychophysiology in Psychiatry and Psychopharmacology by Veena Kumari,Petr Bob,Nash N. Boutros Pdf

Psychophysiology is an ever expanding field. The application of psychophysiological investigations to psychiatric disorders is likewise expanding and has in fact shed much light on some of the neural processes contributing to the development of psychiatric symptoms and/or their amelioration following treatment. In the first part of this volume, we have selected a number of conditions where psychophysiological investigations have recently provided some insight into the pathophysiology of a particular manifestation (e.g., dissociation) or a disorder. Although this volume has a main focus on electrophysiological investigative modalities where neuroimaging was complimentary this added insight was included. The second part of the volume focuses on novel uses of psychophysiological measures, combining it with neuropsychology and imaging where possible, in the context of neuropsychiatric research and describes advanced analytical tools. Both basic and clinical investigators in this field should find the reviews and interpretations provided clear and informative. Clinicians will find this volume easy to assimilate. While direct clinical applications may be down the road, the insights provided should help the practicing clinicians to have firmer understanding of the complexity of the disorder they manage in everyday practice.

Handbook of Cognitive Psychophysiology by J. Richard Jennings,Michael G. H. Coles Pdf

An edited collection of works that describes the application of psychophysiological techniques to the study of human cognition. Offers a close examination of cognitive theory using psychophysiological measures. It illustrates how these measures can complement performance measures and how peripheral and central psychophysiological indices provide different, uniquely useful information. Chapters deal with serial, parallel and capacity models of information processing, attention, motor and mnemonic processing, language, cognitive development and aging.

Information Processing in The Nervous System by K. Nicholas Leibovic Pdf

In recent years, several symposia have been held on subjects relating to the general themc of information processing in the nervous system. It is now widely recognized that this whole field is rapidly developing and changing in a manner beyond our imaginings of a few years ago. When confronted with conceptual revolutions of this kind, it is justifiable to have a continued on-going discourse and disputation so that there is maximum opportunity for interaction between the leaders of thought in aIl the re lated disciplines. The conference organized by K. N. Leibovic, and held at the State University of New York at Buffalo from Gctober 21st to 24th, 1968, made a notable contribution to this interaction. It is fortunate that there is here being published, not only the papers contributed to the sym posium, but also much of the stimulating discussion. The term "neuronal machinery" can be validly used because there is now good understanding of the operational mechanisms of at least some of the neuronal centers in the brain, and our knowledge of these mechanisms is progressing in a most encouraging manner. The stated objective by Prof. Leibovic, the organizer of the symposium, was that it was designed to cor relate neuronal machinery with psychophysiological phenomena. He calls attention to the urgency of achieving a common conceptual basis for neuro anatomy, neurophysiology, and psychology.

Biofeedback and Behavior by Jackson Beatty Pdf

Biofeedback and Behavior: A NATO Symposium, held on 27-30 July 1976 at the Max Planck Institut fUr Psychiatrie in MUnchen, was a mul tidisciplinary meeting that explored both theoretical and applied issues arising from the use of biofeedback procedures for the control of visceral, central nervous system and skeletal events. The symposium was multi national in its composition. Financial support for the symposium was initially provided by the Scientific Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as part of their continuing series of scientific symposia. Funds made avail able by a grant from the United States Office of Naval Research permit ted wide-spread international participation in the symposium. The facil ities for the meeting were graciously provided by the Max Planck Institut ilir Psychiatrie. We thank each of these organizations for their support in making this symposium possible. A special thanks is due to Dr. B.A. Bayraktar of the Scientific Affairs Division of NA TO and Dr. Donald Wood ward of the U.S. Office of Naval Research, whose counsel contributed substantially to the organization of this meeting. The planning of this symposium was carried out in consultation with members of the organizing committee: Rolf Engel, Pola Engel-Sittenfeld, Laverne C. Johnson, George H. Lawrence, Gary E. Schwartz, and Da vid Shapiro. The final form of this symposium reflects their contribu tions, for which we are grateful.

Readings in Physiological Psychology: Neurophysiology; sensory processes by Charles G. Gross,Harris Philip Zeigler Pdf

The readings in this volume, though grouped in two separate parts, share many common methodological and conceptual features. The analysis of sensory systems has been a traditional starting point for physiologists and psychologists in their attempts to understand what Sherrington called "the integrative action of the nervous system." Conversely, our understanding of sensory mechanisms has benefited immensely from the development of a body of knowledge about the physiological properties of the neuron. It therefore seems appropriate that the first volume of this collection should contain readings illustrating the relationship between basic neurophysiology, sensory physiology, and behavior. The .Papers in Part I deal with the development of some of the basic techniques and concepts of modern neurophysiology. Part 11 illustrates their extension to the analysis of sensory processes.
