Biological Mechanisms of Psychological Disorder
Purpose: Integrate your knowledge of how the brain impacts cognition, emotion, and behavior to critique a popular press article describing the relationship between the brain and a psychological disorder. Compare and contrast the original peer review article being cited by the popular press article with what is being reported.
Instructions: See course page on the final project for additional details.
This final project will be a culmination of your new mastery of psychophysiology and understanding of how the brain underlies emotion, cognition, and behavior. In Week 5 you got approval for a popular press article and underlying peer-reviewed paper describing a theory or model explaining the neuroscience behind ADHD
Your final project will consist of a 5-10 page, APA style paper critiquing BOTH how the popular press article describes the underlying peer-reviewed paper’s findings/theory/model as well as critiquing the proposed neural basis of the psychological disorder.
Begin the paper by summarizing the proposed neural basis of your chosen psychological disorder.
Then, compare and contrast the popular press article with the peer-reviewed paper it is based on.
Did the popular press article do a good job of clearly communicating the concepts?
Was there important information left out?
Did the popular press article overstate or understate the research findings and/or implications?
Finally, use your knowledge of neuroscience and psychophysiology to critique the proposed model, citing at least one additional peer reviewed journal article to support your critique.
Does the proposed neural basis seem plausible?
Would you expect different areas of the brain or nervous system to be involved?
Were you surprised by anything?
Include APA style citations for any materials you reference, including the popular press article, peer-reviewed papers, and any course material (including the textbook, required readings, and recommended readings).
