Bio Psych Mnemonics For Sale Soon

October 27, 2008 by admin 

Very soon I’ll be making available a downloadable PDF document containing over 30 mnemonic images to help you remember the parts and functions of the bold terms you’ll find in a typical bio psych chapter of an introductory psychology textbook.

If you’re taking Intro Psych you’ll find this document invaluable.  A typical bio psychology chapter includes terms like:

  • Occiptal lobe
  • Medulla
  • Hypothalamus
  • Serotonin
  • Reticular Formation
  • Synaptic vessicles
  • Acetylcholine
  • Nodes of Ranvier
  • Dendrites
  • Broca’s area
  • Wernicke’s area

How can you remember what these brain parts do?  Well, can you picture these items:

  • kites
  • a killer octopus
  • a bloody ax
  • Einstein
  • your roommate asleep on a  couch
  • a watermelon

If you can picture these things then you can memorize the parts of the brain.  Very soon I’ll have the “Bio Psych Mnemonics” document ready for purchase.  Check back on this site, or contact me on my other site: The Psych Files podcast.
