Study Notes
4.1. Modelul fiziologic
- In anul 1795, astronomul curții regale a Marii Britanii, Nicholas Maskelyne, a constatat existența unor diferențe între înregistrările pe care el și asistenții săi le efectuau asupra timpului de deplasare al astrologilor din-un punct la altul pe cer; timpul măsurat de el era mai mare decât cel înregistrat de asistenți.
- In admirație a acestor persistente diferențe au persisitat, ba chiar s-au accentuat în lunile următoare.
- Franz Joseph Gall (1758-1828), a parăsit Austria natală, unde, cursurile sale erau intensificate pentru a susține materiale Dum, pentru a se stabili la Paris.
- Gall propunea o psihologie a facultátilor mentale şi urmareasă identificarea funcțiilor cerebrale diferite.
- El a propus existența a 27 de zone cerebrale, modelul său era o organologie cranio-scopică, 10 dintre organele cerebrale asigurându-și manifestările intelectuale(inferioară şi superioare) instinctele şi facultățile intelectuale ale omului.
- Gall a enunțat cinci principii, care explică modulul său, prescrisăreditat pentru a determina funcțiile, aşfel, modelul psihofiziologiei facultății.
- Ca urmare a bazelor filosofice ale lui Gall, gândirea profundă despre pot fi descoperite.
- În 1858, apud Lecadet şi Mehannna, 2006, p. 68, consideră că oasele cutiei craniene reproduc cu fidelitate forma cortexului, ele fiind structuri superioare ale cortexului.
- Cu cât un organ din creier este mai activ, cu atât el este mai dezvoltat şi vizibil în forma craniului.
Gall şi fenologia
- Franz Joseph Gall (1758-1828), a parăsit Austria natală, interes și localizarea cerebrală, după cum spune el admirației pentru ce stabilit la Paris.
- Gall propunea o psihologie a facultăților mentale.
- El susține că la nivel cerebral există 27 de zone ale creierului.
Broca și fiziologia experimentală
- Paul Pierre Broca (1824-1880) a localizat sediul limbajului articolat în emisferul stâng.
- Broca, determină localizarea centrală motorie, de care aparțin afaceri senzoriale.
- În urma multor cercetări şi observări ştiințifice, el a constatat posibilitatea localizării cerebrale în funcție de posibile boală.
