3MT3: Midterm 1
Validity (predictor vs. criterion) Content-Related Evidence: education; construct underrepresentation (does it test all imp elements) or construct-irrelevant variance (rely on wrong)? How to know?: are there separate factors and own expert judgement? / Criterion-Related Evidence: make a prediction (predictive validity evidence) high school predicts uni gpa? Concurrent validity evidence: 2 things happening at same time; small sample represents overall? / Validity coefficient: tend to not be high

The sense of vision occupies a large space in
our brain , which is called the occipital cortex. We use the eyes to visualize
and then store information for later analysis. When we analyse information that
we see, we use our perception to extract meaning from what we see. The perception model action explored the two
parts in our brain responsible for visual perception: the dorsal stream and the
ventral stream. However, vision is not
only a biological process; it is also a form of social awareness and

¡Escribe tu textthe study of morality aims to understand where the principles of right and wrong come from and how they work. is right or wrong but we are unable to explain the reasons of why we think that way. This is called ‘moral dumbfounding’, which opens the question to different theories and research exploring moral nature. On one hand, nativism argues that moral knowledge and emotions are instinctive; a product of evolutionary history with a strong genetic base. On the other hand, Read MoreMIRI
1.Dorsal and ventral stream.
Dorsal stream: stream of processing ascends from the occipital cortex to the parietal cortex and is involved in spatial awareness and action. It is often referred to as the ‘where’ or ‘how’ pathway because of its functions. Ventral stream: Also known as the ventral pathway, this stream of processing descends from the occipital cortex to the inferior temporal cortexand is involved in objects recognition. It is often referred to as the ‘what’ pathway owing
