What is the most significant difference between the roles of the peripheral and central nervous systems in shaping behavior? Why?
2.2
The peripheral and central nervous system pathways interact and integrate their functions to create a response to a stimulus. To what extent can the central nervous system be trained to alter the autonomic response? Is further alteration of the autonomic response improbable or undesirable? Why do you believe this is the limit?

Prospectus Draft Submission
Over the last few courses, you have been developing your dissertation research prospectus from your 10 Key Strategic Points document. At this point, you should have a preliminary draft of your prospectus that integrates an abbreviated version of your literature review into the introduction to the prospectus. Your prospectus should include all components listed in the “Prospectus Review Checklist,” and the “Prospectus Template” should be followed explicitly to organize formatting and content. This assignment is another opportunity for you to receive feedback on your progress to date. You will continue to work on your prospectus throughout this course by implementing feedback received on this assignment. Another submission of a more polished prospectus will be due later in this course. Additionally, continue to expand and improve upon your literature review, including the theoretical foundations that have been established for your specific topic, as the entire literature review will be included in your dissertation proposal to be submitted in subsequent courses.
