Psychology students spent time sitting around a table drinking coffee and shooting the breeze. Today, the psychology depart ment at Texas A&M occupies the fourth floor of the Academic build ing. Nearly 3,000 undergraduate and graduate students are enrolled in psychology courses, and the de partment is expanding both its facilities and its scope of activites. Dr. Martin, head of the Psychol ogy Department, said that in the last two years six new faculty members have been hired, and, next week a proposal for a doctoral program in applied psychology at A&M will go before the Academic Council. “We are now at a point where we feel we can offer a doctoral prog ram,” Martin said. To handle the increase in students and faculty, labs are being con structed in the Academic building. Fourteen cubicles are nearly com plete which will be used for a wide range of individual or group experi ments. An example would be per ception research which deals with the reception and processing of the senses — sight, sound and smell. The department has a completely shielded isolation chamber for simi lar research. “The reason we have this is because there is a lot of in monitoring brain activity, heart rate and other physiological functions,” Martin said. The shielded room blocks out any type of outside radio waves and electrical activity which would interfere with such research. “We’ve really got, in psychology, two major areas of research: animal and human,” Martin explained. Human research can range from in dividual work to group “social psychological” research, such as the study of the effects of competition on problem solving, he said. lied on ip of sm there is evidence that it is applicable to human motivati Roop said. “No one has ever seen motii, so you have to measure some formance, whether it be grafe school, or how fast a rat runs,’ Martin said, “What I’m real terested in is to see Psycholq A&M a little different thanatn*!

We do that with one-way mirrors,” Martin said. The department has two rooms which are equiped with the mirrors. In animal research, white rats are traditionally used, due to their ease of care and relative intelligence. Steve Roop, a graduate assistant in psychology, is experimenting with rats as part of his master’s thesis. He explained why rats are useful in psychological research: “Animal re search is a proving ground for later application to humans. The same basic principles hold true, and basic learning processes are the same whether in a rat, a man or a chimp. ” Roop’s experiments involve man ipulating the reward given to a rat for doing a certain task, in this case run ning down a straight alley. The speed of the run is measured as an indica tion of motivation. “It’s not that we are interested in By LI Battali s at hi country ay thr oor.
