We give meanings to things based on social interactions Meaning we give something isn't permanent, can be changed Ex: Tree, I think it's shade, so sit under it Other person thinks ants, doesn't sit under it I feel ants on back, modify meaning Ignores total societal forces that change people's lives Interaction, interpretation

Midbrain

Midbrain

Brainstem

Midbrain, pons, medulla

MDMA is stimulant, increases monoamines, what effect on sleep and latency to sleep (increase/decrease)

Monoamines usually epi and dop. Excitatory on CNS, so increase monoamines=stimulus, decrease sleep, increased latency to sleep

Modernization

More info available to public, less religion

Partial reinforcement schedule is better why

More resistant to extinction than continuous reinforcement, continuous reinforcement becomes less reinforcing over time

Secondary deviance

More serious consequences, stigmatizing label, severe negative reaction to it You take steroids but whole team doesn't take steroids, they treat you like cheater

Rods

More than cones, movement, periphery vision, night, light/dark, mostly periphery, slow recovery time 120 M rods, 1000x more sensitive to light Slow recovey time (still see bright lights after lights shut off), takes a while to adjust to dark, rods need to be reactivated, takes a while to adjust to light

Internal migration

Move within same country, urbanization for example

Suburbanization/urban sprawl/suburban sprawl

Movement away from cities to get larger home, to suburbs Cities spreading out Commuter longer, harder to get quick medical help Suburbs can become independent of cities Atlanta

Correct rejection

No, absent

Miss

No, present

What are the slow receptors

Nociception and thermoception Small diameter axons

Gate control theory of olfaction

Nociception theory. Non-painful input closes gate to painful input, so pain sensation can't ravel to CNS Fast blocks slow

Timing of somatosensation

Non adapting: AP fires at constant rate, throughout time stimulus is applied Slow-adapting: Neuron fires at beginning of stimulus, slowly calms down/adapts (Tonic receptors) Fast-adapting: Neuron fires at beginning of stimulus, then stops, then starts firing when stimulus stops (Phasic receptors0

Opening in middle of iris Gets bigger when dark, also SNS Gets smaller when light, PNS

Assortative Mating

Non-random mating, people with certain phenotypes/genotypes/similarities/genes/physical appearance tend to mate with each other with higher frequency Large animals mate with large animals But could result in inbreeding, increase likelihood of recessive, homozygous traits passed to offspring Best, helps increase inclusive fitness of organism

Advanced stage: Wide spread neuronal loss, lewy body depositions throughout cortex Lewy Body Disease: Mostly cognitive issues, less abnormalities from basal ganglia dysfunction, seaprate from parkinson's

Obedience

Obey orders/follow orders/obey authority, no cognitive component Positive; Firefighter says don't enter building Negative: Holocaust

Sensitization

Often causes whole class of stimuli to be enhanced as well. Repetition of painful stimulus may make one more responsive to loud noise

Disengagement Theory

Older adults and society separate, become more absorbed as they age, separation allows for self-reflection Says that elderly people still involved in society are not adjusting well Aging is inevitable, mutaul withdrawl/disengagement, decreased interaction of old person and social system he belongs to. Natural and acceptable for person to withdraw from society Opposite of activity theory Mutual withdrawal of person and society Loss of roles, dismissed from society, transfer of power from one generation to next

Olfaction

Olfactory epitehlium (olfactory sensory cells) Separtaed from brain using cribiform plate (piece of bone) Olfactory sensory cells drndrites/nerve endings have receptors on them, specific to 1 type of molecule, molecule binds, causes cell to fire, AP end up in olfactory bulb. All cells sensitive to benzene (one type of molecule) will fire to one location in olfactory bulb called glomerulus (designation point for various sensory olfactor cells that are sensitive to same molecule) Acetone glomerulus Benzene glomerulus Double benzyene glomerulus At glomerulus, receptors synapse on Mitral/tufted cell that projects to brain, Lots of olfactory sensory cells synapsing on one mitral/tufted cell, then to brain (amygdala) Molecule binds to GPCR, G-protein dissociates, binds to ion channel, depolarizes, causes AP, activates mitral/tufted cell, to amygdala, to olfactory/piriform cortex 100's of different olfactory sensory cells sensitive to particular molecules, send projections to one glomerulus corresponding to 1 type of moleucle, every one glomerulus has one mitral/tufted cell

Iron rule of oligrachy

Oligrachy: small group of people have power and control of country, organization, or institution No matter how democratic the organization is, will eventually be ruled by few people, more bureaucratic over time because conflict theory (people in power want to stay in power), also people in power maybe more intelligence, more skills, so more valuable

Master Status

Only cones, no rods, where dimple is

Opioates/Opiods

Opiates=natural (T=tree=natural) Opiods=synthetic Narcotics=sleep inducing, same thing as opiods, because opiods are like depressants Decrease CNS function, decrease HR/BP, relaxation, sleep (used to treat pain and anxiety) But acts on endorphins, depressants act on GABA receptors Analgesic (reduce perception of pain) Can lead to euphoria Mimics endorphins Vasodilator, pupil constriction Die by respiratory failure

Codine

Opiod

Morphine

Optic discs

Optic discs stacked on top of each other in every rod/cone, has proteins called rhodopsins (rods) or cone opsins/photopsins (cones) In proteins, there is retinal (11-cis retinal), light hits, makes it into 11-trans retinal/a;ll-transretinal Retinal changes chape, rhodopsin changes shape 1. 11-cis retinal-->all-trans retinal in rhodopsin 2> Shape change in retinal-->shape change in rhodospin-->transducin (alpha,beta, gamma subunit) leaves rhodopsin, activated 3. Transducin alpha activates PDE 4: PDE converts cGMP to GMP 5. GMP binds to Na+ channel and closes them, so hyperpolarization, cell turned off cAMP keeps channnels open, turned on Bipolar cells: Rods turned off, on center bipolar cells active, which turns on retinal ganglion cells, sends signal to optic nerve in brain

What is frustration aggression hypothesis? A) Keeping IV in study 1 with the addition of telling participants that the child they are helping or hurting is the same sex or opposite sex b) Replacing IV in study 1 with placing attractive toy in room and telling 1/2 of subjects they can't play with it

People more aggressive when frustrated B A is in-group/out-group bias

Parietal: Somatosensory cortex: Occipital: Visual information Temporal: Auditory and olfactory

Adaptive Associations

Part of natural world, easier to learn these associations, not easy to learn associations that were not Called Adaptive associations, learned faster than ones with no biological value Ex: Phobias, develop phobias that impacted our ancestors, not ones that are dangerous to us Height, snakes, spiders, avoid food that made you sick, evolutionary advantageous to have these phobias so passed on But no phobias against cars, even though more dangerous

Third Person Effect

People think that mass media has greater effect on other people than it has on them

Continuity Theory

People try to maintain same basic structure throughout their lives overtime. As they age, people make decisions to maintain structure and use it to adapt to external changes and internal changes of aging. Older generations continue to age and adapt, society has to adapt with hem, maintain save activities, behavior, relationships, as early in life Homeostasis Older adults try to maintain same activities, behavior, relationships as they did earlier in life Life course approach Micro level, pertains to individual, functionalist, tries to stay in equilibrium/homeostasis Internal structure: Beliefs, personality, ideas remain constant External relationship: Relationships, social roles provides support for maintaining stable self concept and lifestyle

Activity Theory/Normal theory/implicit theory/lay theory

Stay busy, engage, active, maintain social interactions, participate in middle-aged roles=successful aging Looks at how older generation looks at themselves.

Urban areas, no grovery stores, can't exericse, only fast food or gas -station, malnutrition, no gyms/playgrounds

Evolutionary Game Theory

Use of mathematical models to represent complex decision making in which the actions of other group members must be taken into account. Success of an individual in the "multiplayer game" depends not only on his or her own strategy but also on the strategies and decisions of the other "players". The most successful strategies result in greater fitness and will be favored by natural selection Those best fi to environment survive, pass genes onto offspring, more common those genes Predicts traits/behaviors based on evolutionary impact on grop

Coviration model

fMRI

Used to measure brain activity

Aversive conditioning/Aversion therapy
