Behavioral neuroscience, also known as biological psychology, [1] biopsychology, or psychobiology, [2] is part of the broad, interdisciplinary field of neuroscience, with its primary focus being on the biological and neural substrates underlying human experiences and behaviors, as in our psychology.
Working memory training (WMT) is a method that targets working memory enhancements as a vehicle for changing behavior. [13] Working memory is "the ability to retain some information active for further use, and to do so in a flexible way allowing information to be prioritized, added, or removed."
The methods of neuro-linguistic programming are the specific techniques used to perform and teach neuro-linguistic programming, [1] [2] which teaches that people are only able to directly perceive a small part of the world using their conscious awareness, and that this view of the world is filtered by experience, beliefs, values, assumptions, and biological sensory systems.
Situated cognition draws a variety of perspectives, from an anthropological study of human behavior in the context of technology-mediated work, [6] or within communities of practice [14] to the ecological psychology of the perception-action cycle [15] and intentional dynamics, [16] and even research on robotics with work on autonomous agents at ...
As early as 2006, researchers at Georgia Tech published a field programmable neural array. [15] This chip was the first in a line of increasingly complex arrays of floating gate transistors that allowed programmability of charge on the gates of MOSFETs to model the channel-ion characteristics of neurons in the brain and was one of the first cases of a silicon programmable array of neurons.
His work later influenced G.E. Müller who continued the tradition of lists of items to conduct memory experiments on human subjects and using behavioural data to develop models of memory. [3] The two most common types of memory studied using these methods are recognition and recall.
Human performance technology (HPT), also known as human performance improvement (HPI), or human performance assessment (HPA), is a field of study related to process improvement methodologies such as organization development, motivation, instructional technology, human factors, learning, performance support systems, knowledge management, and training.
Brain training (also called cognitive training) is a program of regular activities purported to maintain or improve one's cognitive abilities. The phrase “cognitive ability” usually refers to components of fluid intelligence such as executive function and working memory .
