Presentation transcript:

PSYC 2320 Midterm I Review session Monday, Feb

Question 1 What is Monoism? What is Dualism? Mind and brain (body and soul) are not different things Mind and brain are fundamentally different

Question 2 Name the different parts of the neuron Dendrites Cell body Axon

Question 3 What is sensation? What is perception? Sensation is acquiring information about the outside world Perception is interpreting information about the outside world

Question 4 Imagine a sound wave that causes high magnitude of displacement at the apex end of the basilar membrane. How would you perceive this sound? A loud, low pitched tone

Question 5 A 100 Hz test- tone played at 50 dB would have a SPL of ___ dB 60

Question 6 After listening to a 5000 Hz tone you would expect to experience hearing loss for _______ after exposure 4 days

Question 7 What are four cues you could use for localizing sound? Arrival time Phase lag Head related transfer function Room Echoes

Question 8 What is a pure tone? Sounds with only one frequency

Question 9 What is Acoustic-phonetic invariance? Phonemes should match one and only one pattern in the spectrograms Is it true? NO!

Question 10 What is the difference between categorical perception and cross-modal integration? Categorical perception is a phenomenon in which the brain assigns a stimulus into one or another category but never into an intermediate category Cross-modal integration is the integration of two or more different sensory inputs

EXAMPLES:
