Naturalistic Observations

17.2K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Protein-protein Interfaces

14.7K
Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a...

Fixed Action Patterns

17.7K
A fixed action pattern (FAP) is a specific, hard-wired sequence of behaviors that occurs in response to an external stimulus, called a sign stimulus. The behavior is “fixed” because it is essentially unchangeable—proceeding similarly across individuals of a species every time it occurs.

Social Foundations of Self I: Play and Game

213
The development of self in children is deeply rooted in social interactions, mainly through stages of play and structured games. These stages, outlined by sociologist George Herbert Mead, illustrate how children progressively learn to understand and adopt social roles, forming a cohesive sense of self.The Play Stage: Imitation and Simple Role-TakingIn the early years of childhood, the play stage is characterized by imitative behavior, where children engage in role-playing based on familiar...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

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...

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Human-Computer Interaction

    Background:

    • Action observation training leverages the mirror-neuron system for stroke rehabilitation.
    • Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) offer potential for enhanced therapeutic engagement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess if a BCI-based action observation rehabilitation game, using flickering videos, preferentially activates the mirror-neuron system.
    • To compare the effectiveness of BCI-integrated action observation versus non-integrated methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Fifteen healthy subjects participated in a counter-balanced study.
    • Experimental conditions included a BCI-integrated game, a game without BCI, non-flickering stimuli, and stimuli only.
    • Steady-state visually evoked potential and event-related desynchronization were used for feedback.

    Main Results:

    • The BCI-integrated game condition showed significantly stronger mirror-neuron system activation compared to other conditions.
    • Mirror-neuron system activation decreased over time in non-BCI conditions.
    • Activation remained stable throughout training in the BCI-integrated condition.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed game paradigm integrates action observation with BCI technology for interactive rehabilitation.
    • This approach may enhance patient engagement and improve outcomes in stroke rehabilitation.
