Homework Answers
- ANSWER-Research has found evidence that extraversion may be related to greater activation of dopamine pathways in the brain associated with reward and positive affect.
- Extraversion indicates how outgoing and social a person is. A person who scores high in extraversion on a personality test is the life of the party. They enjoy being with people, participating in social gatherings, and are full of energy.
- Numerous studies have shown that extraversion is correlated to being more motivated by rewards. Some have hypothesized that this is due to a greater number of dopamine receptors in the midbrain. Dopamine is associated with reward-seeking behavior.

New research from King’s College London has found that maternal stress before and during pregnancy could affect a baby’s brain development. In their study published in Biological Psychiatry, MRC Doctoral Researcher in Perinatal Imaging and Health, Alexandra Lautarescu and Head of Advanced Neuroimaging, Professor Serena Counsell, for the first time looked at the relationship between maternal stress and brain development in 251 premature babies. They found evidence for impaired development of a white matter tract, the uncinate fasciculus, in babies...

Scientists at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center have found new evidence that mindfulness meditation reduces pain more effectively than placebo. The research, published in the Nov.11, 2015 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, showed that study participants who practiced mindfulness meditation reported greater pain relief than placebo. Significantly, brain scans showed that mindfulness meditation produced very different patterns of activity than those produced by placebo to reduce pain. The study used a two-pronged approach -- pain ratings and brain imaging...

1. A researcher has just finished a statistical analysis and claims that he found evidence that x affects y positively. Using a 1-tailed test, he found that the estimated coefficient for x is significantly positive at the 5% level, but is not significant at the 4% level. Assume that the classical linear regression assumptions hold. If the researcher used a 2-tailed test instead, what would he have found? a. The estimated coefficient for x is significantly positive at the 2.5%...
