课程名称:心理学与生物学的关系(结业证书) 课程概述:本课程回顾了与心理学相关的基本生物学概念,包括神经系统和内分泌系统、发现工具、较老的脑结构、边缘系统和大脑皮层。我们对大脑的理解促进了对心智的认识,古希腊医生希波克拉底将心智准确地定位在大脑中,而他的同时代人哲学家亚里士多德则认为心智位于心脏。研究人员通过探索心智的生物学发现:我们的适应性大脑受到经历的塑造;身体中的神经元能够传导电信号并通过化学信息相互交流;特定的大脑系统承担特定功能;我们将不同大脑系统处理的信息整合,以构建我们对视觉、声音、意义和记忆的体验,以及对疼痛和激情的感知。 课程目标: - 识别大脑的各个组成部分; - 解释生物学、行为与心智的关系,以及可塑性的力量; - 确定神经系统和内分泌系统的各个部分; - 认识用于检查大脑的不同工具; - 识别大脑皮层的结构与功能。 信息素养:评估回答问题所需的信息,并评估信息质量。 - 展示识别心理学术语和概念所需信息的能力; - 识别并评估特定目的的信息来源。 系统探索:了解用于心理学研究的社会科学研究方法。 - 展示描述心理学科学的能力。 通过本课程,学习者将掌握生物学与心理学交叉领域的理论与应用,提升对大脑功能以及心智运作的认识。
Course Description: This course reviews the basic psychological concepts of the biology of the mind, to include: Neural and Hormonal Systems; Tools of Discovery; Older Bain Structures; the Limbic System; the Cerebral Cortex; and gives exam questions and answers to assist the learner.Our understanding of the brain gives birth to the mind has come a long way. the ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates, correctly located the mind in the brain. His contemporary, the philosopher, Aristotle, believed the mind was in the heart which pumps warmth and vitality to the body. Researchers seeking to understand the biology of the mind have discovered that: our adaptive brain is wired by our experiences; among the body's cells are nerve cells that conduct electricity and talk to one another by sending chemical messages across a tiny gap that separates them; specific brain systems serve specific functions; and we integrate information processed in these different brain systems to construct our experience of sights and sounds, meanings and memories, pain and passion. Course Objectives:· Identify the various components of the brain;· Explain biology, behavior and the mind, and the power of plasticity;· Identify parts of the nervous system and the endocrine system;· Recognize the different tools used to examine the brain;· Identify the structure and functions of the cerebral cortex.Information Literacy: Assess what information is needed to answer questions as well as evaluate the quality of information.· Demonstrate the skill of identifying information needed to answer questions pertaining to psychological terms and concepts· Recognize and evaluate information sources for a specified purposeSystematic Inquiry: Understand social science research methods used in psychological research· Demonstrate the ability to describe the science of psychology
