    Aristotle thought that the function of the brain was to cool the blood. That seems ludicrous now; through neuroscience, we know more about the brain and how it works than ever before.

    This is a very interesting article about stereotypes, specifically in Latin America. This can not only help me and other Latin American teachers but also to others from different nationalities and cultures, so they can use this as a comparison to their own and help the students develop a broad vision of this topic.

    On page 4 of this article there are some good examples of counteracting extraneous variables and really understanding biases. I think articles that summarize experiments like this are good for students to understand the importance of all the little details that could potentially confound their results on the IA.

    Used this in class when we were looking at obedience but it could also be very useful when looking at and discussing ethics in psychology.
  • Ainslie Dann on 04 Nov 12
     
    I also use the Milgram study when looking at ethics - it forms a good debate about the trade off between ethics and the amount we have learnt from the study. Some of the classic case studies are good also - Genie Wiley etc.

    Provides information about the brain. The most interesting is that within its chapters has a large number of links that can be very useful

    An international group of neuroscientists has sliced, imaged and analysed the brain of a 65-year-old woman to create the most detailed map yet of a human brain in its entirety (see video at bottom). The atlas, called 'BigBrain', shows the organization of neurons with microscopic precision, which could help to clarify or even redefine the structure of brain regions obtained from decades-old anatomical studies.

    This is my all time favorite for ethics and experiments. We saw the whole movie. I think it is very valuable since it is made with the actual kid who suffered the impact of unethical experimentation, lack of parent will power, and a scientific context that thought new it all.

    hello Gonzalo! My students love this case study. They always become shocked after hearing this story and want to learn more about ethics in psychology. Thank you for this link!!!

    Thank you Aneta, It is a magnificent example of how science, naive parents and ambition can really make life miserable....all in good intentions! (beware of good intentions! hahahaha)

    This is a good site for finding extra readings on topics that pertain to Psychology. The articles are well written and fairly short and straightforward allowing access to the complex ideas for ESL learners. It is also a great site for "study mining" if you are interested in expanding your options on studies relating to the different concepts in Psych. (I especially like PSYBLOG)

    I really love this, and have used it often. A great suggestion. Thank you.

    Patients with amnesia usually know who they are, but they have problems storing new memories. You wouldn't realise this from the movies. Films like The Bourne Identity show us the opposite pattern - characters who have forgotten who they are, but who have no trouble with their everyday memory.
