Hello TIPSters,
In discussing schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders (or at least I
think I discussed it--could have been me and the voices), a student asked if
schizophrenia could be induced from a head injury. I had never heard of
someone becoming psychotic after a head injury (maybe when
I will be teaching a course on the Psychology of Learning this coming
fall. In the past, I've used Houston, J. P. (1991), _Fundamentals of
Learning and Memory_ as the text. I like the text because it covers the
experimental literature well. However, it is getting old. I'd like to find
a text tha
In order to support my claim that the University of Phoenix is more than just
an online business college, let me quote from their 96/97 catalog:

For my classes students have to hand in a 2 page double-spaced critique
of their experience--what they did, how it relates to course work, and
if they are in the research methods course they must identify the
method/design and critique it, along with any other relevant things
we are studying, i.e.
Some time ago someone wrote to TIPS and suggested a technique for getting
students to read and keep up with the class. The idea was to ask students to
write a notecard containing a summary of the reading assignment (all this from
memory, of course).

The following URL lists sites hosting research experiences for undergraduates

benefit from this kind of experience (and who doesn't?).

Dear colleagues,
A friend of mine has asked me to post the following announcement to the
TIPS mailgroup. I hope that it will be of interest to some of you.

Oh what the heck -
I just set up links for a web chapter on sleep (Introductory level writing at
this point, so I haven't yet done a literature search for writing the advanced

Hi Rick et al -

Nancy Melucci asked about sleep talking: in which stage does it occur; is
it more likely in REM or NREM.
According to Webb (1975):
Most sleeptalking does not occur in REM sleep. Because there are many
EEG artifacts associated with sleeptalking it is difficult to assess

My guess is that Rip was referring to a local "university" by the name of the

Talking in sleep is a related phenomenon to sleepwalking. Moorcroft (1993)
suggests that it may occur during stage 3 and may actually be a result of
intrusion of stage 2 electrical activity during stage 3 sleep. It has to
occur in NREM sleep, because in REM the motor system (and hence the speech

Hi folks:
My understanding is that somnambulism is usually a stage 4 occurrence. Is
talking in one's sleep more usual in one particular stage? NREM or REM? This
is to answer a student's question. Thanks for your help.
