Teoría de la Inteligencia: una aproximación neuropsicológica desde el punto de vista de Lev Vigotsky
Centro de Estudios Académicos en Neuropsicología, 2013Co-Authors: Arias Gallegos, Walter LizandroAbstract:Intelligence is a construct that generates debates and controversies, even more since Howard Gardner wrote about his multiple intelligences theory. The aim of this work is to present a neuropsychological vision of intelligence under Vigotsky�s sociocultural conceptions and other Russian neuroscientists as Ivan Pavlov, Piotr Anojín and Alexander Luria. Cultural influences were recognized as intelligence mediators and propose that brain�s analytical synthetic activity explains individual differences on ontogenetic and filogenetic development, considering it as its biological fundament. We conclude that intelligence is a unitary but no univocal construct, linked to thought, keeping its systemic relationships with diverse forms of psychical activity, consequently, there�s no reason to talk about intelligence on terms of Gardner�s multiple intelligences theory.La inteligencia es un constructo que ha generado diversos debates y controversias, más aún desde que Howard Gardner postula su teoría de las inteligencias múltiples. El objetivo del presente trabajo es presentar una visión neuropsicológica de la inteligencia a la luz de la teoría sociocultural de Vigotsky así como de diversos neurocientíficos rusos como Iván Pavlov, Piotr Anojín y Alexander Luria. Se reconocen las influencias de la cultura como mediadoras de la inteligencia y se propone que la actividad analítico sintética del cerebro explica de mejor manera las diferencias individuales de la inteligencia tanto ontogenéticamente como filogenéticamente, constituyéndose en su fundamento biológico. Se concluye que la inteligencia es un constructo unitario pero no unívoco, indisolublemente ligado al pensamiento, que mantiene relaciones sistémicas con diversas formas de actividad psíquica, por tanto no existe la necesidad de plantear la existencia de inteligencias múltiple

the politics of physiological psychology Ivan Pavlov s suppressed defense of scientific freedom and its consequences
Integrative Physiological and Behavioral Science, 1993Co-Authors: Irving Louis HorowitzAbstract:This statement, first presented at a plenary session of the Pavlovian Society on 9 October 1992, in Los Angeles, California, attempts to assess the recently released speech delivered by Ivan Pavlov in 1923, but publicly brought to light only in 1991, on the subject of “Communist Dogmatism and the Autonomy of Science.” This speech, noteworthy for the courage of the delivery under adverse circumstances no less than the contents of its remarks, compels a new estimate of the place of science in a totalitarian system boasting an ideology of physiological psychology. It also sheds new light on the Russian Nobel laureate and pioneer in the areas of behavior modification induced by the functions of the higher nervous system.

It also sheds new light on the Russian Nobel laureate and pioneer in the areas of behavior modification induced by the functions of the higher nervous system. These remarks take an in-depth view of American radical and Marxian appraisals — how they followed the Soviet lead in harnessing Pavlov to the Communist cause, and in attempting to discredit the work of Sigmund Freud. This lethal combination of Communist political needs and ideological proclivities served to rationalize the implementation of slave labor as work therapy during the Stalinist era. The linkage of Pavlov to Makarenko in education and Michurin in biology serves as a case study in the manufacture of tradition. The collapse of the Soviet system permits a recasting of the history of science and Pavlov’s place in Russian life. Such new conditions also provide a lesson in the distortive role of ideology in the evolution of modern science.

Walter Bradford Cannon: Reflections on the man and his contributions
International Journal of Stress Management, 1994Co-Authors: Bradford CannonAbstract:My father's early research was with X-rays and led him to a serendipity finding concerning the role of distress in the physiological responses of cats. This chance finding led to further studies of the effects of emotional stimuli on various organs and systems in the body. These studies were the foundation for Cannon's discovery of the fight-or-flight, or stress response, and the development of his companion notion of homeostasis, embodied in The Wisdom of the Body . While being fond of William James from undergraduate coursework under him, Cannon challenged and refuted the validity of the James-Lange Theory of emotions during his research career. Always fascinated by the psychological and emotional realm of human functioning, Cannon enjoyed warm and close relationships with Robert Yerkes and Ivan Pavlov over the years. The only time in my father's life when he felt strong pressure to produce may have been during World War I when he was part of the Allied medical team solving the problem of traumatic shock experienced by Allied troops in Europe.
