Learning outcomes
|
Psychophysiology is a discipline focused on observing physiological changes related to psychological processes. The goal of this course is to provide students with practical skills needed for designing and conducting a psychophysiological experiment.
The students will familiarize themselves with various devices for biosignals recording, will understand their principle and will learn how to use them. Besides that, the students will also learn the basics of analysis of psychophysiological data (such as reading the raw signal, spectral analysis, evoked response analysis, signal averaging etc.) and how to interpret the results.
