Question

multiple choice question
which of the following techniques would a cognitive neuroscientist be least likely to use?
o positron-emission tomography (pet)
o diffusion tensor imaging (dti)
o fmri imaging
o psychoanalysis

Explanation:

Cognitive neuroscientists use neuroimaging techniques (PET, DTI, fMRI) to study brain - cognition relationships. Psychoanalysis is a clinical/psychotherapeutic approach (Freudian, exploring unconscious) not a neuroscience research technique, so a cognitive neuroscientist is least likely to use it.

Answer:

D. psychoanalysis
