Physiological Psychology provides a basis for understanding the underlying physiological mechanisms of normal and abnormal behavior and cognition. It emphasizes both the structure and function of the nervous system and the relationships between the brain and responding, motivation, emotion, cognition, arousal/sleep, eating, and learning. We will also discuss mental disorders, neurodegenerative disease, and the biological mechanism of drug action.
