2 gru 2019 · Introduction. How neural circuits govern motor behavior has long been a central question for neuroscience research. In particular, it is a classical theme that the brain controls motor behavior...
Abstract. Analyzes equilibrium-point models for motor control, describing these models in the context of servo control mechanisms. A servomechanism is defined as an automatic control system for which the input to the system is simply a representation of the desired system output.
how motor systems break down when components are damaged. Movement is key to every aspect of our lives. From breathing to walking, writing, or frowning, each behaviour is controlled by the motor system. So, understanding how movement is generated is an important step to understanding behaviour.
27 sie 2022 · It might seem unintuitive or even perverse to put brakes on a circuit as soon as it is excited, but the metaphor of the Sorcerer’s Apprentice provides an explanation for why the brain, to put it loosely, ‘worries’ about stopping processes as well as starting processes.
14 wrz 2024 · Explore the biological approach in psychology, its principles, applications, and impact on understanding human behavior through brain and genetic influences.
Breedlove, S. M., & Watson, N. V. (2013). Biological psychology: An introduction to behavioral, cognitive, and clinical neuroscience (7th ed.). Sinauer Associates. Abstract. Throughout the book we employ a five-fold approach to biological psychology—descriptive, comparative/evolutionary, developmental, mechanistic, and applied/clinical.
Understand the core premises of biological psychology and the early thinkers. Critically evaluate empirical support for various biological psychology theories. Explore applications and implications of key concepts from this perspective.
