Chapter 1: A Brief History of Cognitive NeuroscienceMULTIPLE CHOICELEARNING OBJECTIVES1. Explain the origins of the field of cognitive neuroscience2. Describe the roots of the debate over localization of function3. Explain the ways in which brain structure was studied4. Understand the philosophical origins of cognitive psychology5. Discuss behaviorism and its principal tenets6. Explain how and why cognitive psychology came to the forefront of psychological fields7. Identify the different methods that are used to measure brain function and structure1.The case of Anne Green was remarkable in that after being falsely convicted of murdering hernewborn child,a.she survived an attempted electrocution.b.she escaped and later married Thomas Willis, a famous neurologist.c.she survived an attempted hanging.d.she escaped and later became a famous neurologist.ANS:CDIF:EasyREF:Historical PerspectiveOBJ:LO 1MSC: Remembering2.Aside from saving Anne Green’s life, Thomas Willis and Christopher Wren alsoa.created very accurate drawings of the brain.b.came up with the names of a number of brain structures.c.took the first steps that led to cognitive neuroscience.d.all of the above.ANS:DDIF:MediumREF:Historical PerspectiveOBJ:LO 1MSC: Understanding3.Which of the following is NOT one of the principal reasons that Willis is considered one of the earlyfigures in cognitive neuroscience?a.he named many brain parts.b.he dissected the brains of criminals within 21 miles of Oxford.c.he was among the first to link behavioral deficits to brain damage.d.he created very accurate brain images.ANS:BDIF:DifficultREF:Historical PerspectiveOBJ:LO 1MSC: Evaluating4.A central issue of modern cognitive neuroscience is whether specific human cognitive abilitiesa.can be localized to particular parts of the brain.b.are determined by the shape and size of the human skull.c.are best studied using introspection or the scientific method.d.can be identified using the Golgi silver method of staining.
