| Outline and Purpose of the Course | This course introduces objective/empirical methods for understanding human mind (or cognition), by using psychological behavioral data together with brain activity data in cognitive neuroscience. To do so, we will examine several phenomena such as recognition of one’s own body, speech perception by face and voice, and working memory. In the examination, we will see connection between cognition and action (or body), and its plasticity as well as developmental and aging-related changes. | |||
| Course Goals |
-Understand the objective/empirical methods to investigate cognitive function -Understand the plastic and developmental aspects of mind, which is useful to deal with people in different ages and backgrounds |
