DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Support is requested for the continuation of a research training program in cognitive psychophysiology. The training program (dating from well before "cognitive neuroscience" emerged as a term largely synonymous with "cognitive psychophysiology") responds to the increasing penetration of psychophysiological techniques into many domains of the behavioral sciences. Psychophysiological techniques include both electrophysiological, hemodynamic, and optical neuroimaging methods, as well as measures of more peripheral bodily functions (especially eye movements and also heart rate, respiration, electrodermal activity, electromyography, all of which we have considerable experience in). Scientists trained in many subdisciplines of psychology, neuroscience, and other fields are adopting these measurement approaches. There is a pressing need to provide training in psychophysiology for biological and behavioral scientists who wish to utilize psychophysiological methods. The program faculty are prominent, active scientists of diverse backgrounds and interests, based in the Departments of Psychology and Electrical and Computer Engineering, the Neuroscience Program, and the Beckman Institute, emphasizing fMRI, ERP, and near-infrared methods and their integration with each other and with other methods. The training program brings these faculty members and their graduate students and postdocs together in an environment that provides thorough training in cognitive psychophysiology through coursework and an extended apprenticeship within the graduate program of the Department of Psychology and the campus Neuroscience and Medical Scholars Programs. The training program's mission is also addressed by attracting postdoctoral trainees for whom the program provides an opportunity for carefully supervised transition into research combining the tools of noninvasive human neuroscience with those of psychology in studying the implementation of the mind by the brain. The program emphasizes the importance of embedding empirical work in explicit theoretical models as well as developing sophistication in a wide range of data analysis methods, in the service of training independent cognitive psychophysiologists working in diverse applications.

描述（由申请人提供）：支持要求在认知心理生理学的研究培训计划的延续。训练计划（可以追溯到“认知神经科学”作为一个术语出现之前，主要是“认知心理生理学”的同义词）对心理生理学技术越来越多地渗透到行为科学的许多领域做出了回应。心理生理学技术包括电生理学、血液动力学和光学神经成像方法，以及更多外周身体功能的测量（特别是眼球运动以及心率、呼吸、皮肤电活动、肌电图，所有这些我们都有相当丰富的经验）。在心理学、神经科学和其他领域的许多分支学科中受过训练的科学家正在采用这些测量方法。 迫切需要为希望利用心理生理学方法的生物和行为科学家提供心理生理学培训。该计划的教师是不同背景和兴趣的杰出，活跃的科学家，基于心理学和电气与计算机工程，神经科学计划和贝克曼研究所的部门，强调功能磁共振成像，ERP和近红外方法及其相互整合和与其他方法。该培训计划将这些教师及其研究生和博士后聚集在一起，通过课程和心理学系和校园神经科学和医学学者计划的研究生课程内的延长学徒期提供认知心理生理学的全面培训。培训计划的使命也通过吸引博士后学员来解决，该计划为他们提供了一个机会，让他们在仔细监督下过渡到研究，将非侵入性人类神经科学的工具与心理学的工具相结合，研究大脑对心灵的实现。该计划强调了在明确的理论模型中嵌入实证工作的重要性，以及在广泛的数据分析方法中开发复杂性，以培训在不同应用中工作的独立认知心理生理学家。
