Hello, TIPsters. I am working on the final exam for my Cognitive Psychology
course, and I'm not satisfied with the essay questions I'm generating. I'd
like to have two or three essay questions (to give them a choice) that would
require that students integrate information from several units. We're

Deanna,
A lot of the research I conduct deals with conditioned flavor
preferences in rats. The flavors I use are grape or cherry flavored
kool-aid and the nutrients are sucrose and saccharin. The research is
therefore cheap in cost and the students love it. We usually get profound

Hi!
You might want to ask an applied cognitive question - maybe If you wanted
to have a computer to REALLY think like a human - what would you need to
change?
If anyone sends you an integrative question, I would love to see it -

I'm trying to locate research that can help me understand why people

1994 book is terrific, but I need something more broadly explaining why
people voluntarily engage in risks.

To Nancy et al:
What I can remember is something like this:
- that being right hemispheric dominant (supposedly women) is
advantageous in the general use of both hemispheres.
However being left hemispheric dominant (supposedly men) is more
specific to the left hemisphere and more restrictive
Given that we've been discussing hemispheric influences, I was wondering
if anyone might know if hemispheric lateralization was different in any
way for left-handed individuals versus right-handed individuals?
Thanks,
