This week you will examine the major structures in the central and peripheral
nervous system, including both the location and function of these structures.
Search the Ashford University Online Library and locate a peer-reviewed research
study that was published within the last five years which examines the role of
one of the structures reviewed in Chapter 4 of your course text. The research
study you identify should evaluate the function of this structure in either
normal or abnormal behavior. Your response must clearly identify the role of the
structure in the identified behavior as well as your level of agreement with the
results of the study and your rationale. Your initial post should be a minimum
of 250 words and utilize at least one peer-reviewed research study published
within the last five years.
Guided Response: Review
several of your classmates’ posts. Respond substantively to at least two of
your peers who chose different structures. Did the research study they selected
adequately support their argument? Evaluate the strength of their analysis. What
research, if any, could be included to strengthen their rationale? After
reviewing their post, do you agree with their results and rationale? Why or why
