studies of the spatial aggression phenomenon in rats suggest that it would be more appropriate to refer to it as

septal defensiveness

sham rage

the muscle that pulls up the lip corners during a smile is the

zygomaticus major

in rats, boxing is

- a defensive behavior - directed at attacking conspecifics

the dominant male rat of a colony

- alpha male - usually moves sideways towards a male intruder -usually directs internal attacks at male intruders - usually directs bites at the back of a male intruder

which structures are apart of the limbic system

- amygdala - cingulate cortex - septum - mammillary body

gastric ulcers

- are leisons to the lining of the stomach and duodenum - are more common in people living in stressful situations - have been produced in experimental animals by exposure to stress

According to the Cannon-Bard theory, emotional experience and emotional expression

- are parallel processes. - have no direct causal relation. - are independently triggered by the same emotional stimuli.

Sham rage is displayed by

- decorticate cats. - cats whose cerebral hemispheres, excluding the hypothalamus, have been removed.

Darwin believed that

- expressions of emotion evolve from behaviors that indicate what an animal is likely to do next. - expressions of emotion evolve in ways that enhance their communicative function and that their original function may be lost. - opposite messages are often signaled by opposite movements and postures.

the evidence that testosterone affects the aggressive behavior of humans is inconsistent. The text suggests that this inconsistency may be attributable to the fact that

- hormones may have less effect on many human aggression than they do on aggression in other species - the tests that have been used to study testosterone and aggression in human are markedly different from those used in other species - testosterone can be synthesized and act locally in particular brain structures, but studies of testosterone and human aggression have been based on general blood levels of testosterone

The emotional experiences of patients with broken necks

- indicate that somatic and autonomic feedback from the body is not necessary for the experience of emotion. - are inconsistent with the James-Lange theory.

the fact that social aggression in many mammalian species occurs more frequently between males and between females is often attributed to the

- organizational effects of testosterone - activation effects of testosterone

lymphocytes are

- specialized white blood cells - produced in bone marrow - stored in the lymphatic system

on the basis of existing evidence the following conclusion about the ANS emotional specificity is warrented

- the and does not respond in the same way to all emotional stimuli - there is not enough evidence to conclude that there is a different pattern of and activity associated with each emotional state

disruptions in immune function do not necessarily increase the incidence of infectious disease because

- the immune system has many redundant components - disruptions in immune function may be too brief to affect susceptibility to infection - disruption in immune function may trigger compensatory improvements to other aspects of immune function

the defensive and aggressive behaviors of rats have been assigned to various categories on the basis of

- their topography - the situations in which they occur - their apparent function

Ekman and friesen (1975) analyzed hundreds of films and photographs of people experiencing various emotions. on the basis of their analysis, they conclude that

- there are six primary facial expressions of emotion - many facial expressions of emotional are mixtures of the six primary emotions

which of the following is a major finding of cognitive neuroscientific research on emotion

- there is usually activity in sensory and motor cortex when a person experiences an emotion - similar patterns of brain activity occur when a person experiences an emotion or emphasize with someone experiencing the same emotion

Stressed individuals are more likely than unstressed individuals to report being ill this is because

- they expect to be more ill - illness while stressed is more uncomfortable - stressed contributed to the illness

The first major book on the biopsychology of emotions

-was published in 1872. -was The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animals. -introduced Darwin's theory of the evolution of emotional expression

amygdala

bilateral lesions to either the medial geniculate nucleus or the _____ bloc auditory fear conditioning

amygdala

arousal

lesions to which brain structure in rats disrupt auditory fear conditioning to complex sound but not simple sounds

auditory cortex

during a sequence of predatory attacks on a frog or a mouse, a rats target site is almost always the

back of the neck

in the rat, the target site for social aggression is the

back, near the base of the tail

Ronda was threatened by a robber so she kicked him. her response is an example of

defensive attack

fear is the motivating force for

defensive behaviors

an important feature of social aggression that distinguishes it from other forms of aggression are many mammalian species is that it is

dependent on testosterone

The James-Lange and Cannon-Bard theories make __________ predictions about the effects of feedback from somatic and autonomic activity on emotional experience

different

according to James Lange theory different emotional stimuli induce _____ patterns of autonomic nervous system activity

different

A mirror like system is thought to be the neural mechanism of

empathy

memory B cells

enable antibody-mediated immune reactions to occur more quickly in a particular antigen is encountered a second time

Stress that improves health has been termed

eustress

patients with gastric ulcers are often helped by

- antibiotics - psychological treatment, even if they dont reduce h. pylori infection

the belief that putting on a happy face makes one feel happier is an example of the

facial feedback hypothesis

the theory that facial expressions can influence emotional experience is called the

facial feedback hypothesis

h pylori has been implicated as a casual factor in

gastric ulcers

because even innocent people undergoing a lie-detector test are likely to be aroused by questions about their guilt or innocence the

guilty-knowledge technique should be employed when possible

the clever-bucy syndrome

- was first demonstrated by clever and bucy - was first demonstrated in monkeys -has been observed in humans

in order to employ the guilty-knowledge technique the polygraphed needs to

have a piece of information about the crime that is known by the guilty party but not by any other suspect

parallel processes

the human amygdala seems to be specifically involved in

perception of fear in others
