Name two theories which relate to Automatic Processes
According to Shallice (1982), what are the two component systems which influence choice of behaviour? What executive function does it relate to?
According the Shallice (1982), what is meant by Contention Scheduling? What is the target word here?
Give an example...
According to Shallice (1982), what is meant by Supervisory Attentional System?
When is it active?
What is it thought to have?
According to Shallice (1982) theory on Automatic Processes, what happens to Frontal Lobe patients? What does this mean with regards to routine tasks?
Why do Frontal lobe patients appear impulsive?
What is it referred to as?
What is meant by Perseveration? What does it mean with regards to Frontal Lobe Patients? Why?
What does Struss & Benson (1986) suggest about the Frontal Lobe and what does their model link?
"Automatic Processes"
What is involved in Struss & Benson (1986) lowest level of control?
"Automatic Processes"
What is involved in Struss & Benson (1986) middle level of control?
"Automatic Processes"
What is involved in Struss & Benson (1986) higher level of control? What is it under control of?
"Automatic Processes"
What does Self-reflection allow for, with regards to Struss and Benson (1986) higher level of control?
"Automatic Processes"
What is meant by Meta-cognition, with regards to Struss and Benson (1986) higher level of control?
"Automatic Processes"
How do each of these deficits relates to the Frontal Lobe?
"Automatic Processes"
1. Deficits in dealing w/novelty & lack of cognitive flexibility
2. Inability to guide behaviour & the undue influence of the environment
3. Inability to self-criticise of self-monitor
What regions of the brain is thought to be involved in Initiation of Behaviour/Action Initiation?
What is happens to reaction times when there is damage to the Medial Frontal regions of the brain? What are these regions?
"Initiation of Behaviour/Action Initiation"
What tests are used for "Initiation of Behaviour/Action Initiation", what exactly are they testing?
Give an example of a Verbal and Nonverbal fluency task
"Initiation of Behaviour/Action Initiation"
Damage to which side(s) of the frontal lobe are associated with poor Verbal and Nonverbal fluency?
"Initiation of Behaviour/Action Initiation"
What is expected to happen when a Frontal Lobe patient is asked to draw a square?
How does it differ from some w/o frontal lobe damage on the same task?
"Creation & Maintenance of a Goal or Task Set"
The Dorsolateral Prefrontal Regions aid in "Creating and Maintaining" a attentional set. Give an example of evidence which supports this?
"Creation & Maintenance of a Goal or Task Set"
What has the combination of DLPFC & ACC analysis been used for? How does each region relate?
"Creation & Maintenance of a Goal or Task Set"
What was found by Braver & Bangiolatti (2002) regarding the Organising and Managing of Subgoals?
"Creation & Maintenance of a Goal or Task Set"
What is meant by "Sequencing/Planning"?
What did Petrides & Milner (1982) Self-Ordered Pointing Task on Frontal Lobe Patients consist of? What did they find out?
"Sequencing/Planning"
How does damage to the lateral regions of the frontal lobe relate to performance on recency judgement task?
"Sequencing/Planning"
What is the Tower of London Task (Shallice, 1982) ? What is it used for?
How are Frontal Lobe patients expected to perform on the Tower of London task? Why?
