Consciousness And Two Trsck Mind

Front 1

Consciousness

Back 1

Awareness of ourselves and our environment

Front 2

Cognitive neuroscience

Back 2

Study of brain activity linked with cognition, thinking, memory,and language

Front 3

Dual processing

Back 3

Information simultaneously processed on separate conscious and unconscious tracks

Front 4

Blindsight

Back 4

Condition in which a person can respond to a visual stimulus without consciously experiencing it

Front 5

Parallel processing

Back 5

Processing of many aspects of a problem simultaneously. Brains natural mode of information processing for many functions

Front 6

Selective attention

Back 6

Focusing of conscious awareness on a particular stimulus

Front 7

Inattentional blindness

Back 7

Failing to see visible objects when our attention is directed elsewhere

Front 8

Change blindness

Back 8

Failing to notice changes in the environment

Front 9

Sleep

Back 9

Periodic, natural loss if consciousness.

Front 10

Circadian rythem

Back 10

Biological clock, regular body rythem

Front 11

REM sleep

Back 11

Rapid eye movement. Recurring sleep stage during which vivid dreams commonly occur.

Front 12

Alpha waves

Back 12

Relatively slow brain waves of a relaxed, awake state

Front 13

Hallucinations

Back 13

False sensory experiences, such as seeing crazy ****

Front 14

Delta waves

Back 14

Large, slow brain waves associated with deep sleep

Front 15

Suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN)

Back 15

Pair of cluster cells that control circadian rythem. (Light....SCN adjusts melatonin production)

Front 16

Insomnia

Back 16

Recurring problems in falling or staying asleep

Front 17

Narcolepsy

Back 17

Uncontrollable sleep attacks

Front 18

Sleep apnea

Back 18

Stop breathing while asleep

Front 19

Night terrors

Back 19

Occur in REM-3 regular dreams in NREM- 1

Front 20

Manifest content

Back 20

Remembered story line of a dream (freud)

Front 21

Latent content

Back 21

Underlying meaning of a dream (freud)

Front 22

REM rebound

Back 22

Tendency for REM sleep to increase after sleep deprivation

Front 23

Failure to see visible objects because our attention is occupied elsewhere

Back 23

Inattentional blindness

Front 24

React to stimuli outside of our awareness?.....devote deliberate attention to stimuli?

Back 24

Unconscious/conscious

Front 25

______blindness and change blindness are forms if selective attention

Back 25

Inattentional

Front 26

during rem-1 most likely to see

Sleep spindles

Hallucinations

Night terrors

REM

Back 26

Hallucinations

Front 27

Brain emits large delta waves during

Back 27

NREM-3

Front 28

As night progresses what happens to REM stage of sleep use

Back 28

It increases

Front 29

Neural activation theory

Back 29

Brain trying to make sense of random neural activity
