Course lecturers and tutors

4 Reality ≠ Perception  = f(  )

Psychophysics  = f(  )   behavior: RT, accuracy   stimulus inputs Behavior = f(stimulus inputs)

Why a course on psychophysical methods

Experience Introspection Observation Cognitive architecture RT/errors Thresholds … Neural mechanisms fMRI EEG TMS …

Why a course on psychophysical methods Complexity of neuro-cognitive phenomena requires their analysis on different levels Levels are characterized by different methodological and research approaches Analysis of behavioral measures helps interpretation of neuroimaging results

Describing and opening the black box Psychophysics Describing what functions the cognitive system performs Cognitive neuroscience Describing how and where are these functions implemented f(S, O) Stimulus Behavior Stimulus Behavior Imaging

Tilt illusion Erroneous perception of the tilt of the inner grating as a function of contextual stimulation

Psychophysics of the tilt illusion Schwartz et al., 2007, NatRevNeur

Neuroscience of the tilt illusion Electrophysiological measure responses of populations of neurons to local orientation stimuli Repulsive tuning shifts in primary visual cortex neurons for space and time, for context target differences of 15°

Bringing together behavior and neurons From recordings of neurons (left) behavior can reliably be predicted (right-hand side)

Aims of the course Overview of “classical” psychophysical methods with reference to their applications in current neuro-cognitive psychology research. Demonstrate purely “psychological” tools for investigating internal states and processes Hands-on experience.
