Physiological psychology - Physiological psychology
It is a field that studies the correspondence between psychological phenomena and physiological mechanisms, and began with the establishment of psychophysics and experimental psychology in the second half of the 19th century. Wundt named his major work "Physiological Psychology." Today, physiological psychology is roughly divided into psychophysiology and physiological psychology. The former examines psychological phenomena such as anxiety and fear using galvanic skin reflexes, electroencephalograms, electromyograms, and electrocardiograms, while the latter examines how psychological phenomena change due to drug administration or brain stimulation.

Japanese:
心理学的現象と生理学的機構の対応関係を研究する学問であり,19世紀後半の精神物理学や実験心理学の確立とともに始まった。ブントはその主著に〈生理学的心理学〉の名を冠した。今日では生理学的心理学はおおまかに心理生理学と生理心理学に分けられるとする見方がある。前者は不安や恐怖などの心理的現象を皮膚電気反射,脳波,筋電図,心電図などで調べたりするものであり,後者は薬物投与や脳への刺激によって心理的現象がどう変わるかをみるものである。
