Sensation & Perception
Sensation: Passive process by which stimuli are received by the sensory systems
Perception: the active process by which the brain interprets the sensory information
How many senses? 8!
vision, hearing, taste, smell, touch, temperature, pain, balance

Sensation & Perception
Types of receptor cells Photoreceptor – sensitive to photons
Vision Chemoreceptor – sensitive to molecules
Smell Taste
Mechanoreceptor – sensitive to pressure Touch Hearing Balance
Thermoreceptors – sensitive to heat Temperature
Nocireceptors – sensitive to painful stimuli Pain (fast & slow)

Vision
Fovea: Center of visual field
Pupil: hole in middle of iris
Neurons in Retina:
Cones Day vision Sensitive to
wavelength, color
Rods Night vision Sensitive to
amplitude, brightness
Detecting motion

Perception
Requires experience in the world Depth Perception
Binocular cues Retinal disparity – eyes are set apart Convergence – inward turn when viewing a near object
Perceptual organization Figure-ground discrimination Grouping
• Close objects/similar objects together Closure
• Filling in gaps Context!

Sleep
Sleep deprivation in rats: died after ~4 weeksDinges: Huge sleep reduction study
Subjects sleep 4, 6, 8 hours per night Given psychomotor and working memory tasks Results: Sleep Deprivation is bad!
After 2 weeks, compared to being legally drunk
Circadian Rhythms ~24 hours(ish) independent of day/night cues Artificial light disrupts rhythms Recent discovery: Depend on photoreceptors in small
% of ganglion cells in retina

respiration Rapid eye movements Paralysis of volunary muscles Dreams

Learning
Classical Conditioning: a neutral stimulus, through association, takes on some of the psychological properties of a second stimulus UCS, UCR CS, CR
Food (UCS)Slobber (UCR) Bell (CS) & food (UCS) Slobber (UCR) Eventually bell (CS) Slobber (CR)
Acquisition Extinction Generalization Discrimination

Learning
Operant Conditioning: learning occurs as a result of the consequences of behavior
Reinforcement: any consequence that makes prior behavior more likely to occur Positive and negative Schedules
Continuous Partial (pg. 278-79)
Interval, ratio
Punishment: any consequence that makes prior behavior less likely to occur

Learning
Long Term Potentiation: a long lasting enhancement in signal transmission
between two neurons Improves the postsynaptic cells sensitivity to signals
received from the presynaptic cell

Language
Human Language: 1. Compositional
A. Phonemes- units of sound (English- 45) Ex. K ae t = cat
B. words- units of meaning C. sentences- units of structure
2. 3 level system Sounds (phonemes, words) sentences meaning Syntax: rules that govern how words can be combined to
form sentences 3. infinite # of possible sentences
Results from RECURSIVE nature of syntactic rules

Language
Language Acquisition and stages of development Babbling (5-12 mths)
Non-syllabic babbling (5-7 mths)- baby begins to play with sounds “clicks, hums, smacks”
Syllabic babbling (7-8 mths)- baby begins to produce real syllables “deedeedee” “babababa”
Gibberish babbling (8-12 mths)- baby mixes syllables, really cute ‘speech’ results “da-dee”
One-word utterance stage (12-18 mths) Initially, the child learns about 50 important words
Food: juice, cookie Body parts: eye nose Toys: doll, block People: mama, dada, baby Action words: up, down, eat, go Modifiers: hot, allgone, more, dirty Social interaction: hi, bye-bye, yes, no
