  2. Test construction strategies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_Construction_Strategies

    Test construction strategies are the various ways that items in a psychological measure are created and decided upon. They are most often associated with personality tests but can also be applied to other psychological constructs such as mood or psychopathology .

  3. Modularity of mind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modularity_of_mind

    Historically, questions regarding the functional architecture of the mind have been divided into two different theories of the nature of the faculties. The first can be characterized as a horizontal view because it refers to mental processes as if they are interactions between faculties such as memory, imagination, judgement, and perception, which are not domain specific (e.g., a judgement ...

  4. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  5. Physiological psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiological_psychology

    Physiological psychology studies many topics relating to the body's response to a behavior or activity in an organism. [3] It concerns the brain cells, structures, components, and chemical interactions that are involved in order to produce actions. [4]

  6. Limbic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbic_resonance

    Limbic resonance is the idea that the capacity for sharing deep emotional states arises from the limbic system of the brain. [1] These states include the dopamine circuit-promoted feelings of empathic harmony, and the norepinephrine circuit-originated emotional states of fear, anxiety and anger.

  7. Conjugated system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugated_system

    Cinnamaldehyde is a naturally-occurring compound that has a conjugated system penta-1,3-diene is a molecule with a conjugated system Diazomethane conjugated pi-system. In theoretical chemistry, a conjugated system is a system of connected p-orbitals with delocalized electrons in a molecule, which in general lowers the overall energy of the molecule and increases stability.

  8. Hyperconjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperconjugation

    Hyperconjugation can be used to rationalize a variety of chemical phenomena, including the anomeric effect, the gauche effect, the rotational barrier of ethane, the beta-silicon effect, the vibrational frequency of exocyclic carbonyl groups, and the relative stability of substituted carbocations and substituted carbon centred radicals, and the thermodynamic Zaitsev's rule for alkene stability.

  9. Dissociation (neuropsychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_(neuropsychology)

    To strengthen a single dissociation, a researcher can establish a "double dissociation", a term that was introduced by Hans-Lukas Teuber in 1955. [2] This is the demonstration that two experimental manipulations each have different effects on two dependent variables; if one manipulation affects the first variable and not the second, the other manipulation affects the second variable and not ...
