PHYSIOLOGY AND PSYCHOLOGY: A PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATION OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP*

N. H. Pronko

Portada "Empirical Foundations of Psychology"At the very outset, the student is urged to attempt an operational exercise which we believe will throw into bold relief the fundamental characteristics of psychological facts.

Let us take two different kinds of things to work with—a muscle-nerve preparation and a child. The first, a frog's leg muscle and attached nerve, is a typical laboratory assignment for the student of physiology. This portion of the frog (the rest of the frog may be discarded) can be rigged up and experimented with in such ways as to yield precise, useful knowledge about the functioning of muscles.

A weight can be hung on the leg and an electric current sent into the muscle over the nerve. In this way, the relationships  between stimulus and response may be worked out. What are are some of these findings? First, we note that in physiology we can legitimately and profitably study parts of organisms systems or even organs, such as a beating heart. | LEER MÁS >

Logo SincaEn el año 2009 se organizaron el primer congreso del Sinca que contó con la participación de muchos profesionales de ámbito internacional. De las aportaciones realizadas a este congreso surgiría el libro "Estudios sobre comportamiento y aplicaciones" conjuntamente con una serie de videos de diversos conferenciantes que no pudieron asistir físicamente al evento y de los que ahora se recogen sus aportaciones en video.
 
En concreto se presentan cuatro videos de los doctores Froján, Roca, Valero y uno propio.
 
Froján se nos adentra en la problemática de la violencia doméstica pero desde el punto de vista del análisis de conducta lo cual confiere a este abordaje una visión diferente a la que conocemos normalmente a través de los medios de comunicación.

Why Vaccinate?

Simply put, vaccines save lives. You have the power to protect your baby from dangerous illnesses like measles, tetanus and hepatitis. Being a parent is a big responsibility, and the best thing you can do for your child's health is to learn the facts so that you can make the best choices.

Thanks to our nation's successful vaccination program, parents today have been spared witnessing the devastating effects of many diseases. Polio, for example, paralyzed millions of children worldwide before the vaccine was created. In the U.S. and the world, measles infects nearly 23 million people each year. In 2005, measles killed about 345,000 people (311,000 of which were children under the age of five.
