APH 5221 - Stimulation TechnologiesThis course provides sufficient information on psychophysiological entrainment and stimulation for students to understand how various forms of physical stimulation are used to alter the brain and body's functioning. Topics include (1) magnetic stimulation of the periphery to induce changes in peripheral blood flow, (2) magnetic stimulation of the brain to induce out of body experiences and control headaches, (3) physiological entrainment of breathing for control of hypertension, (4) basics of arousal and dysarousal, (5) review of quantitative electroencephalogram (QEEG) and heart rate variability HRV) in relation to entrainment, (6) physiology of audiovisual entrainment (AVE), (7) standard studies on AVE, (8) cognitive studies on AVE, (9) cranial electrical stimulation (CES), (10) ) transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS), (11) HRV - breath-work exercise, (12) programming with the DAVID session editor, (13) use of "alpha stim"-like devices to alter states of consciousness, and (14) neuromodulation including repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). 3 credits. Prerequisite(s): APH 5051 Fundamentals of Psychophysiology and APH 5101 Psychophysiological Recording, Assessment, and Interventions . 3 credit(s) |
