1 Outline 3/5/2013 PSYC 120 General Psychology Spring 2013 Lecture 11: States of consciousness The Nature of Consciousness Sleep and Dreams Psychoactive Drugs Hypnosis Meditation Dr. Bart Moore Office hours Tuesdays 11:00-1:00 Office location: 1030G Practice question Practice question Practice Question In order to get a good idea of an object's depth, we rely on a number of binocular and monocular cues. Which of the following would be an example of a binocular cue? A. Texture gradient B. Convergence C. Height in field of view D. Shading 1
2 Consciousness Theory of Mind Awareness of external events and internal sensations Metacognition - Thinking about your thoughts Involves cerebral cortex - Association areas & frontal lobe Arousal Physiological state of being engaged with the environment Determined by reticular activating system Individuals understanding that they and others think, feel, perceive, and have private experiences Consciousness and the Brain Levels of Awareness Awareness and arousal, are associated with different parts of the brain Areas of the prefrontal cortex appear to be involved in the ways that awareness goes beyond the input of sensory information Arousal is determined by the reticular activating system 2
3 Activity Why Do We Sleep? Come up with some examples of situations or activities that operate at the following levels of awareness: 1. Higher-level 2. Lower-level Why Do We Sleep? Evolutionary perspective For protection To conserve energy Be ready for hunt or evasion Restoration Repair damage Brain plasticity To make memories permanent Sleep: Biological Rhythms Sleep A natural state of rest for the body and mind that involves the reversible loss of consciousness Biological rhythms Periodic physiological fluctuations in body Biological Clocks 3
4 Sleep: Biological Rhythms Circadian rhythms Daily behavioral or physiological cycle Sleep/wake, body temperature, blood sugar Suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) Small brain structure using retinal input to synchronize its rhythm with daily light/dark cycle Sleep: Biological Clocks Desynchronizing the Biological Clock Can get thrown off regular schedules Jet travel, changing work shifts, insomnia Resetting the Biological Clock Bright light Melatonin EEG activity patterns Wakefulness Stages Beta waves Reflect concentration and awareness Highest in frequency, lowest in amplitude More desynchronous, or inconsistent Alpha waves Relaxed, but still awake Brain waves slowed down, increased in amplitude More synchronous, or regular 4
5 Sleep Stages 1 and 2 Stage 1 Drowsy sleep sudden muscle movements EEG characterized by slow, high-amplitude theta waves Stage 2 Decreased muscle activity No conscious awareness of environment Theta waves interspersed with sleep spindles Sleep Stages 3 and 4 Characterized by delta waves - Slowest and highestamplitude brain waves Referred to as delta sleep, the deepest sleep Bedwetting, sleep walking, and sleep talking REM Sleep Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep Active stage during which dreaming occurs Fast wave activity, similar to relaxed wakefulness Likely plays a role in memory Non-REM sleep Stages 1 through 4 Sleep cycles 5
6 Sleep Cycles One sleep cycle Five stages of sleep 90 to 100 minutes Recurs several times a night REM stages become progressively longer Sleep Across the Human Life Span Dreams Uses of Psychoactive Drugs Freud - Dreams symbolize unconscious wishes Manifest content surface content symbolic Latent content hidden content true meaning Cognitive theory Dreams as subconscious cognitive processing Lack of attention to roles of brain structures and activity in dreaming Activation-synthesis theory Dreams as result of synthesis of neural signals Act on the nervous system to: Alter consciousness Modify perceptions Change moods Tolerance Increasing amounts for same effect Physical dependence Need / Withdrawal Psychological dependence Strong desire 6
7 Addiction Physical or psychological dependence, or both Psychoactive drugs increase dopamine levels in brain s reward pathways Ventral Tegmental Area (VTA) Nucleus accumbens Activation of limbic and prefrontal areas of brain Brain s Reward Pathway for Psychoactive Drugs Psychoactive Drugs: Depressants Psychoactive Drugs: Stimulants Depressants: Psychoactive drugs that slow down mental and physical activity Alcohol Barbiturates Nembutal and Seconal Tranquilizers Valium and Xanax Opiates Morphine and Heroin Psychoactive drugs that increase the central nervous system s activity Caffeine Nicotine Amphetamines ( Uppers ) Crystal meth Cocaine Crack MDMA (Ecstasy) 7
8 Psychoactive Drugs: Hallucinogens Modify a person s perceptual experiences and produce visual images that are not real Also called psychedelic drugs Marijuana LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) Hypnosis Altered state of consciousness Psychological state of altered attention/expectation Nature of hypnosis: The four steps Minimizing distractions, maximizing comfort Concentration on something specific Information about what to expect in hypnotic state Suggestion of events or feelings already occurring Explaining Hypnosis Hypnosis as a divided state of consciousness Hidden Observer Social cognitive behavior view of hypnosis Cognitive factors Attitudes Expectations Beliefs Social Context Uses of Hypnosis To dampen brain processes experimentally Helps in understanding: The effects of hypnosis The brain s functioning Most effective when combined with psychotherapy 8
9 Meditation Attaining peaceful state of mind Mindfulness meditation For depression, panic attacks, and anxiety For chronic pain, stress, psoriasis Meditative state of mind Hypnogogic reverie Feeling of wellness Increased activation in basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex Decreases in anterior cingulate 9
