Python for Experimental Psychologists
Python for Experimental Psychologists equips researchers who have no prior programming experience with the essential knowledge to independently script experiments and analyses in the programming language Python. This book offers an excellent introduction, whether you are an undergraduate, a PhD candidate, or an established researcher. This updated edition is on Python 3 (the most current version). It starts by teaching the fundamentals of programming in Python and then offers several chapters on scripting experiments (displaying stimuli, obtaining and logging user input, precision timing, etc.) using the popular PsychoPy package. The remainder of the book is dedicated to data analysis and in...
Python for Experimental Psychologists
Programming is an important part of experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience, and Python is an ideal language for novices. It sports a very readable syntax, intuitive variable management, and a very large body of functionality that ranges from simple arithmetic to complex computing. Python for Experimental Psychologists provides researchers without prior programming experience with the knowledge they need to independently script experiments and analyses in Python. The skills it offers include: how to display stimuli on a computer screen; how to get input from peripherals (e.g. keyboard, mouse) and specialised equipment (e.g. eye trackers); how to log data; and how to control timing...
The State of the Global Education Crisis
"The global disruption to education caused by the COVD-19 pandemic is without parallel and the effects on learning are severe. The crisis brought education systems across the world to a halt, with school closures affecting more than 1.6 billion learners. While nearly every country in the world offered remote learning opportunities for students, the quality and reach of such initiatives varied greatly and were at best partial substitutes for in-person learning. Now, 21 months later, schools remain closed for millions of children and youth, and millions more are at risk of never returning to education. Evidence of the detrimental impacts of school closures on children's learning offer a harrow...
Oxford Handbook of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
The Oxford Handbook of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience brings together the leading developmental cognitive neuroscientists in the field that work on understanding human development, and the complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and brain maturational factors that shape social and cognitive functioning in development. It includes chapters on new, emerging research areas that show promise for understanding both brain and behaviour in development, such as nutrition and the microbiome gut-brain axis and sleep. Looking beyond early developmental changes, this handbook also places importance on the period of adolescence, which is an important developmental juncture. By assuming complex...

In this book, attention expert and cognitive psychologist Stefan Van der Stigchel explains how concentration works and offers advice on how to stay focused in a world of beeping smartphones, channel surfing, live-tweeting, pop-up ads, and other distractions. The good news is that we now know more about brain and behavior than ever before, and Van der Stigchel dra...

The Balanced Brain
How we can use what we’ve learned about the brain to improve our mental health There are many routes to mental well-being. In this groundbreaking book, neuroscientist Camilla Nord offers a fascinating tour of the scientific developments that are revolutionising the way we think about mental health, showing why and how events—and treatments—can affect people in such different ways. In The Balanced Brain, Nord explains how our brain constructs our sense of mental health—actively striving to maintain balance in response to our changing circumstances. While a mentally healthy brain deals well with life’s turbulence, poor mental health results when the brain struggles with disruption. B...
Das ausgeglichene Gehirn – Was uns die Neurowissenschaft über mentale Gesundheit verrät
Gehirn in Balance, statt Chaos in der Seele Der Weg zu mehr Ausgeglichenheit und psychischer Gesundheit scheint heute simpel: Guter Schlaf, ein paar Yoga- und Achtsamkeitsübungen und im Zweifelsfall helfen passende Medikamente. Doch was, wenn die gängigen Rezepte keine dauerhafte Besserung bringen? Neurowissenschaftlerin Camilla Nord bringt auf Basis neuester Forschung Licht ins Dunkel. Sie erklärt, wie Wohlbefinden im Gehirn entsteht, wie wir es selbst regulieren können und bringt dabei einige so erfrischende wie unerwartete Erkenntnisse zutage: Denn nicht ein Allheilmittel muss für uns das Richtige sein – vielmehr können Glücksrezepte, die wirklich funktionieren, so vielschichtig sein wie wir selbst.
