The Test Of Memory, Sensory, Human Emotion And Languages

The Memory Interference Test (MIT) is a computerized experiment that gauges the cognitive functioning of undergraduate students through visual or auditory prompts to test memory. The MIT is particularly used to test patient’s memory in situations where a brain injury is in question, the results in performance are compared to standardized scores of their peers. There is an inverse relationship between the amount of memory target items and performance: as the number of items the subject was exposed to increased their performance significantly decreased (Komori 2016). Does previous expose to the MIT and thus previous exposure to other target items account for the decrease in number of correct items?

It is defined as memory loss in which cortical function is decreased. Patient will have difficult with their thinking, language ability to learn new things as well as motor coordination. It reduces the person’s ability to perform daily activities. (Van Meter &Hubert,2014 p.376).

The second psychological test that examines BDD is the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Examination (BDDE) created by Rosen & Reiter (1994). This test contains a total of thirty-four items, scored on a Likert-style scale with 0 representing "never (or no)" and 6 corresponding to "everyday (or very important)" (Rosen & Reiter, 1994). It features various domains that include how respondents think others perceive their area of distress (if any), as well as self-consciousness and avoidance due to the area of distress (Rosen & Reiter, 1994). It is not a self-questionnaire format but rather designed as an interview based interaction that is filled out by the clinician (for clinical setting) and/or institution (for certain educational purposes) during an

The aim of this test is to see the progress of the athlete’s ability of maintain a state of balance in a stationary position. First the athlete needs to take off their shoes and place their hands on their hips, then position the non-supporting foot against the inside knee of the supporting leg. The person is given one minute to practice the balance. The person raises their heel to balance on the ball of the foot. The stopwatch is started as the heel is raised from the floor.

If the logical mind, isn’t enough to create motivation within us! Should we then let emotions decide what we should be doing? Should we use emotions to prioritize? This might look really emotional, but let’s just look at it by this;

On the One Leg Stand, Mcclellan was asked to stand straight up with his hands by his side with his heels by his side while I demonstrate. Mcclellan was asked to stand on any leg he preferred with his foot parallel to the ground, 6 inches off the ground. Also I advised him to count out loud as 1,001,1,002, 1,003 and so on till I tell him to stop. Mcclellan couldn’t stand in one spot without sway during my demonstration. Mcclellan could not keep his foot up for a long period of time. Mcclellan couldn't perform the test without balancing with his arms. Mcclellan also used his arms every time to balance himself when trying to perform the

These assessments are combined to ensure that there is a clear reason for concern, however, in the film, simply memory testing is done. During sessions with a neurologist, it is important if an informant, someone who has witnessed the change in cognition, is present during the diagnostic process (Cordell et al. 147). After informing Alice of this, she, alongside her husband, is tested through the repetition of sentences and ability to memorize a name and address. Alice’s neurologist merely tests her memory, while excluding other important examinable areas. If the cognitive assessments cause further concerns, a full dementia evaluation is conducted (Cordell et al. 147).

I feel this test can be unreliable, this is become some participants may be very tall with long legs and shorter arms and be flexible but due to the size of limbs may mean there score could not be as good as someone who is shorter but less flexible.

One of the original and most influential neuropsychological test batteries for athletes is the testing program developed for the NFL (Pellman, Lovell, Viano, Casson, & Tucker, 2004). The battery includes six abridged neuropsychological tests and takes approximately 30 minutes to administer. The first of these is the Revised Hopkins Verbal Learning Test (HVLT-R), which assesses verbal learning via three immediate word recall trials, verbal memory via a delayed recall task, and recognition via a yes/no task (Allen & Gfeller, 2011). The next subtest is the Revised Brief Visuospatial Memory Test (BVMT-R) which assesses visual memory via three image recall trials, a delayed recall task and a recognition task (Allen & Gfeller, 2011). The third subtest used in the NFL test battery is the Trail Making Test (TMT), which requires the accurate completion of a number of tasks using spatial scanning, speed and cognitive flexibility skills. Score is determined by the the time taken to complete the test and the number of errors made (Allen & Gfeller, 2011). The fourth subtest is the Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT). The COWAT assesses verbal fluency via three trials of word naming, in which 60 seconds are provided to generate as many words as possible with a given letter of the alphabet. Scores are norm-referenced according to gender, education and age (Allen & Gfeller,

The concepts that are covered in the experiment: “Testing the Accuracy of Eyewitness Testimony” are how the memory part of your brain works. Also, the colors that help memorization is also included in this experiment.Another thing that is covered in this experiment is whether or not someone is able to regurgitate information back after 20 minutes. Another thing that is covered in this experiment is the types of memory disorders. Tips on how to keep a healthy memory are also included. Also, the steps to creating a new piece of memory is also covered in this experiment. Another thing that is included in the experiment is the timeline as to how we know memory today got there.

For example, an mTBI or TBI can generate impairments in a person’s short-term memory retention if the impact of the injury is considerable enough to cause the hippocampus and the adjacent anterior temporal lobe to become tremendously sensitive or vulnerable, despite recovering from the initial stages of injury. As Barzman, Kennedy, & Fozdar (2002) further explain, “when the hippocampus is damaged, the transformation of memories from long-term to active is impaired. Consequently, retrieval of learned information is more difficult for the TBI patient” (p. 51). In addition, other research submits that injuries to the non-dominant hemisphere of a person’s brain may also cause the individual to develop the wrong impression while interpreting both verbal and nonverbal communication of others (e.g., body language, facial expressions, the tone of voice, etc.). Accordingly, those with TBI may have trouble in maintaining social connections or may respond to some situations inappropriately as a response. Other potential complications of TBI with some of the communicative functionalities of the brain also consists of lowering or diminishing scores on both intelligence and memory tests and assessments, constriction of operational vocabulary or difficulty in common retrieval

This test would help to determine the position that they play during a game. If the players maintained a strong and consistent score for all eight repetitions then they would be better suited to playing a power position role in the game. Such as full forward or full back. Whereas if the player started strong but dropped off they’d be more suited to playing an endurance roll in the game. Such as a half forward flanker or a half back flanker.

Studies in PTSD are consistent with changes in cognition and brain structure. Multiple studies have demonstrated verbal declarative memory deficits in PTSD.53,106-108

This study is about experimental testing to determine the possibility of being able to condition an emotional response. To conduct this experiment the authors, ( J.B. Watson and R. Rayner), used an infant as their test subject. This infant met ideal criteria and emotional stability, which was one of the main reasons this particular infant, Albert B., was used in the experimental testing. Following ethical standards, the authors felt that they could do him little harm by performing the experimental tests. The authors support the idea that in infancy, emotional reaction patterns are small in number. These emotional reaction patterns include fear, rage and love (also referred to as sex). These patterns are tested on the infant in this experiment.
