He found that alcohol reduces negative affect, increasing the subjects’ positive feelings and thus causing them to care less about their classification errors. 3 Mon, 29 Nov 2010 17:25:10 GMT http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/bartholow/ipod/Clip_03_Research_Applicability.m4v Education http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/bartholow/ipod/Clip_03_Research_Applicability.m4v Bartholow explains that his research extends beyond an exploration of alcohol and its effects on social behaviors: it tells us about how the brain works. 3 Mon, 29 Nov 2010 17:28:15 GMT http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/bartholow/ipod/Clip_05_Cognitive_Control.m4v Education http://syndicatemizzou.org/resources/bartholow/ipod/Clip_05_Cognitive_Control.m4v Bartholow describes two current projects involving higher-order cognitive control. One, funded by the National Science Foundation, explores how individual differences in executive functioning affect the expression of racial bias, while the other explores alcohol’s effects on higher-order cognitive processes. 3 Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:58:10 GMT
