architecture and functioning. In a series of lectures, we will look at the strengths and weaknesses of each method and what they can reveal about brain functioning, particularly information processing. Neuroimaging methods will be complemented by methods that record physiological processes that automatically accompany our behaviour (e.g. the polygraph). We will introduce the basic studies that have used the methods and learn to critically reflect them. |

The aim of the course is to introduce basic neuroimaging and physiological methods used in psychology, especially in cognitive research. Emphasis is placed on the devices that students may encounter in the LABELS laboratory, namely EEG, fNIRS and eye-tracker, but other methods will also be introduced (fMRI, MEG, ECG, PET scan). Gained knowledge: The student will be able to explain the principle on which neuroimaging and physiological methods work and what physiological processes they record. The student can list the basic areas of research in which the methods are used and can name the studies that use them. Gained skills: The student will be able to evaluate the appropriateness of using the presented methods in concrete psychological research and describe their strengths and weaknesses. The student will be able to critically evaluate articles using these methods, interpret their results and expose their shortcomings. |
