Course Description:
This course surveys the various methodologies used in social neuroscience research. Students will gain familiarity with its commonly used instruments (e.g., games, questionnaires), tools (e.g., functional magnetic resonance imaging [fMRI], positron emission tomography [PET], electroencephalography [EEG], and magnetoencephalography [MEG]), and techniques (e.g., psychoneuroimmunology and endocrine assays). In addition to developing a critical eye for study design and statistical inference, as part of a data-centered classroom, students will consider the neuroscience applications for big data analytics and machine learning. Lab is optional but must be taken concurrently with the lecture. |
