Bottom-Up processing is catalysed by an external stimulus, causing internal cognitive processes to occur, producing the desired response.

Bottom-Up processing is influenced by the individuals expectations and knowledge.

Discrete serial processing is most similar to:

Turning on the indicator and keeping it on while changing lanes is:

Event-Related Potentials:

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)

Magneto-Encephalography (MEG)

[blank_start]Ecological Validity[blank_end]: the applicability of the findings of lab studies to everyday settings. [blank_start]Implacable Experimenter[blank_end]: the experimenter's behaviour is uninfluenced by the participant's behaviour. [blank_start]Paradigm Specificity[blank_end]: when the findings with a given experimental task are not obtained when when apparently very similar tasks are used.

Which of the following theoretical assumptions is sometimes incorrect:

[blank_start]Sulcus[blank_end]: a groove or furrow on the surface of the brain [blank_start]Gyri[blank_end]: prominent elevated areas or ridges on the brain's surface [blank_start]Dorsal[blank_end]: top [blank_start]Ventral[blank_end]: bottom [blank_start]Anterior[blank_end]: front [blank_start]Posterior[blank_end]: back [blank_start]Lateral[blank_end]: side [blank_start]Medial[blank_end]: middle.

Which of the following techniques for studying the brain is considered an invasive technique?
