Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

37.5K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Language and Cognition

807
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Cognitive Therapy01:25

Cognitive Therapy

1.1K
Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors. All cognitive therapies involve the basic assumption that human beings have control over their feelings, and that how individuals feel about something depends on how they think about it. Unlike psychoanalytic methods that delve into unconscious processes or humanistic approaches emphasizing...

Cognition and Behavior

383
Social psychology examines the complex interplay between individual mental processes and social interactions. Historically, the field was divided into two domains: social behavior and social cognition. Researchers focusing on social behavior analyzed actions within social contexts, such as conformity, aggression, or cooperation. Meanwhile, social cognition researchers investigated how people perceive, interpret, and mentally represent their social environments. However, modern perspectives no...

Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

1.2K
Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment

485
Renal dysfunction significantly impairs the renal clearance of drugs, leading to potential complications in drug therapy. Renal failure, which can be caused by various factors, poses a significant challenge in the elimination of drugs from the body.
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry
  • Addiction Research

Background:

  • Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a complex brain disease.
  • Current models often focus on individual symptoms rather than underlying neural mechanisms.
  • A systems-based approach is needed to understand the neurobiology of AUD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel model of alcohol use disorder based on the imbalance of three cerebral and cognitive systems.
  • To identify the neural underpinnings of these systems and their roles in alcohol consumption.
  • To explore new therapeutic avenues for AUD based on this systems model.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual model development integrating existing neurobiological and cognitive research.
  • Identification of key brain regions and functions associated with each system (reflective, impulsive, regulatory).
  • Analysis of how interactions between these systems contribute to the pathology of AUD.

Main Results:

  • The reflective system (frontal cortex) controls alcohol consumption via executive functions.
  • The impulsive system (amygdala-striatal complex) drives automatic and compulsive drinking.
  • The regulatory system (insula) exacerbates system imbalance during stress or deprivation.

Conclusions:

  • This three-system model provides a new framework for understanding the neurobiology of alcohol use disorder.
  • It highlights the interplay between executive control, impulsivity, and stress/deprivation responses in AUD.
  • The model suggests novel, integrated, and personalized therapeutic targets for AUD treatment.
