1

WHAT Pathway: Object recognition, receives information about color, orientation, form. Damage can cause visual agnosia; Inferotemporal Cortex

1

WHERE Pathway: Representing locations of things, includes representation of speed and direction of motion. Damage can cause spatial neglect; Located in the Posterior Parietal Cortex

1

The word superiority effect is the data pattern in which research participants are more accurate and more efficient in recognizing letters if the letters appear within ( a word, isolation, nonsense ) than they are in recognizing letters appearing in ( isolation, a word, nonsense ).

1

Repetition priming is a pattern of priming that occurs simply because a stimulus is presented ( a second time, at all, for the first time, in text )

1

A problem with object recognition is:

1

Biederman: Recognition-by-Components (RBC) assumes complex shapes are made of combinations of simple shapes, these simple shapes may be recognizable at different orientations. These shapes, known as _______, make up objects.

1

The Feature Integration Theory: (Triesman and Gelade) proposes feature differences can be detected in parallel,_. Different types of features must be combined using _.

1

Illusory Conjunctions:

1

According to Shiffrin and Schneider (1977), practice can eliminate interference in some tasks. To examine this, they used two different types of mapping. _ Mapping, in which target-set and distractor-set are not alike (i.e. numbers and letters). _ Mapping, in which target-set and distractor-set are the same

1

Each cognitive task draws on a collection of cognitive resources. When two tasks require the same resources, they:

1

Long-term Memory (LTM):

1

The recency involves the recall of memory. In recalling,

1

The primacy involves the recall of memory. In recalling,

1

The phonological buffer is used:

1

What sort of symptoms ailed patient H.M.?

1

Damage to the ( Hippocampus, Hypothalamus, Cerebellum, Cortex ) and related brain structures impairs ability to form new long-term explicit memories, not working memory or implicit memory.

1

Subjects are generally faster to identify a word as a word if they have seen it recently. As with tachistoscopic reading, not a direct memory test, demonstrates some type of memory. The priming in this is another demonstration of memory without awareness, or implicit memory

1

When identifying famous names, subjects often choose unknown names that they saw
24 hours previously. These names sometimes seem familiar, but without any source memory as to where they were seen. Shows the effect of exposure to a stimulus, without asking for explicit memory of the episode in which the stimulus was seen.

1

According to Collins & Quillian (1969), it takes ( longer, the same amount of time ) to confirm that a canary is an animal than that a canary is a bird. Possibly because it takes ( longer, shorter, the same amount of time ) to reach in the hierarchy .

1

According to Anderson (1974), it takes ( longer, shorter, the same amount of time ) to build up activation when the nodes involved have ( many, few, no ) connections. This could be due to the Fan Effect: number of connections to a node.

1

According to Barbara Tversky, performance ( is better, is worse, is no different ) when subjects can tailor their encoding for the specific type of test.

1

Episodic memory:

1

Syntax is:

1

Broca's Aphasia

1

Wernicke's Aphasia

1

Anomia:

1

Pure Word Deafness

1

Image scanning done by Stephen Kosslyn found the ( longer, shorter ) the "distance" scanned in the image, the ( longer, lack of change ) the time before the scan is completed.

1

In tests of mental rotation done by Roger Shepard, reaction time ( increases, decreases, displays no change ) with the amount of rotation from the normal orientation.

1

A propositional, or descriptive, representation has:

1

Analog (depictive) Representation is something about form of representation that ______ form of thing it represents.

1

According to Kosslyn, what does imagery rely on?

1

When Bisiach & Luzzatti (1979) studied a patient from Milan with left neglect, they found:

1

( Availability, Representativeness, Frequency ) Heuristic: Strategy for estimating the frequency with which something occurs.

1

( Representativeness, Availibility, Probability ) Heuristic: Estimate probability that an exemplar belongs in a category by assessing how representative that event is of the appropriate category.

1

Most people tend to seek ( confirming, disconfirming ) evidence rather than ( disconfirming, confirming ) evidence due to ( confirmation, disconfirmation ) bias.

1

In functional fixedness, there is a tendency to be rigid in thinking about an object’s function. The problem set is like a heuristic, which helps to reduce options, but may also eliminate possible solutions. What is the key for solving this problem?

1

Wallas (1926) argued that creative thought proceeds in four stages. What are these four stages?

1

What is general intelligence?

1

What is specialized intelligence?

1

What is hierarchical intelligence?

1

What is fluid intelligence?

1

What is crystallized intelligence?

1

What is practical intelligence?

1

What is emotional intelligence?

1

What are some examples of Multiple Inteligences as proposed by Howard Gardner?

1

Environment and genetics play the largest role in intelligence.

1

In the Flynn Effect, intelligence decrease up 3 points per decade and can be genetic

1

There are no reliable difference between men and women in their overall IQ scores

1

Genetic similarities and economic differences are great for intelligence, leads to stereotype threats.

1

The word “consciousness” is used to refer to a number of different things such as:

1

Awareness refers to:

1

Thinking refers to:

1

Self consciousness refers to:

1

Experience refers to:

1

A person has damage to primary visual cortex (V1) . Patient claims to be blind in affected area. When forced to guess about visual stimuli, responses more accurate than chance. They have access to visual information that they are unaware of. Even though they are unaware of this information, it can be used to guide their behavior as they avoid obstacles when walking. What does this patient have?
