Let’s say you want to know whether a brain region deep inside the brain (like the hippocampus) responds more strongly when subjects recall true or false information. Would you use fMRI, EEG, or TMS to address this question, and why wouldn’t you choose the other two?

a) Increases in the BOLD signal cause behavior. b) There is localization of psychological function in the brain. c) Changes in the BOLD signal in the medial temporal lobe reflect cognition. d) Neuronal recording is evidence of the modularity of the mind. 2. The principle of mass action assumes that: a) Psychological functions are localized in the brain. b) Memory is distributed equally across brain regions. c) Brain regions have qualitatively dissociable psychological functions. d) Memory is stored in the hippocampus. 3. Why did Morris (1989) conclude that the NMDA receptor antagonist, AP5 affected acquisition but not retention of place learning? a) Rats given AP5 were initially impaired at place learning but improved with further training. b) Rats given AP5 after acquisition showed sensorimotor impairments. c) Rats given AP5 after acquisition showed normal searching behavior in the quadrant that had previously contained the hidden platform. d) Rats given AP5 before training were slow to acquire place learning.

How has the question of how different perceptions can be represented by neurons been answered? Consider both research involving recording from single neurons and ideas about sensory coding.
