B - is needed when automatic psychological processes would not be sufficient, in cases of novel situations.

Questão 3

Questão
What does the term working memory refers to?
Responda
  • the ability to remember action sequences of a learned movement

  • the ability to acquire and store information for a long time
  • the ability to store work related information

Questão 4

Questão
Which of the following statements is correct?
Responda
  • Absence seizures originate in the frontal lobe (fronto-orbital part)
  • Visual symptoms at the onset of a seizure indicate temporal lobe seizure origin
  • Fear may be the clinical manifestation of an epileptic aura
  • Simple partial seizures are characterized by loss of conciousness
  • Complex partial seizures always indicate frontal lobe epilepsy

Responda
  • 1. is characterized by predominant delusions of persecution.
  • is a psychiatric disorder with low heritability.
  • is one of the most frequent psychiatric disorders
  • can be treated with antipsychotics.
  • . is five times more frequent in women than in men.

Questão 6

Questão
The lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorders is about:
Responda
  • 20%
  • 5%
  • 70%
  • 50%
  • 1%

Questão 7

Questão
One of the following statements is wrong – Which one? Alexia without agraphia is a disconnection syndrome typically with the following characteristics
Responda
  • a lesion in the splenium
  • a left hemispheric lesion
  • a visual field defect
  • patients can´t read but write
  • language difficulties

Questão 8

Questão
The frontal lobe
Responda
  • Spans 1/8 of the total cortex in humans
  • Is separated to the temporal lobe by the postcentral sulcus
  • Is subdivided into primary motor cortex, the premotor cortex and the prefrontal cortex
  • Is separated to the parietal lobe by the precentral sulcus
  • Greatly enlarged in the course of evolution in parallel to the development of motor abilities

Questão 9

Questão
Which of the following statements is correct?
Responda
  • Idiopathic epilepsies commonly have a single-gene inheritance
  • Symptomatic epilepsies never have a genetic background.
  • Rolando-epilepsy of childhood is a symptomatic epilepsy syndrome.
  • Frontal lobe epilepsies may be purely genetic
  • The correct diagnosis of epilepsy is made from the EEG.

Questão 10

Questão
One of the following statements is wrong – Which one? “Disconnection syndromes”
Responda
  • may refer to interruption of intrahemispheric as well as interhemispheric fiber tracts
  • are functional deficits caused by focal lesions of fiber tracts that connect cortical brain areas
  • may result from transection of the corpus callosum (so-called “split-brain” operations)
  • are characterized by anatomical lesion sites (and therefore disconnection symptoms might refer to different cognitive or neuronal systems)
  • means that two cortical areas are linked together irregularly (= dysconnection) by aberrant fiber tracts

Questão 11

Questão
The model of cognitive control proposed by Miller and Cohen suggests...
Responda
  • the existence of a “supervisory attentional system (SAS)”.
  • that emotion-related somatosensory patterns facilitate decision-making (“somatic marker hypothesis”).
  • that inhibitory control may be the underlying mechanisms of behavioural control.
  • the existence of a prefrontal “executive committee” for perception, working memory, attention, long-term memory, motor control and thinking.
  • that the prefrontal cortex exerts top-down-control by providing an excitatory signal that biases processing in other brain systems towards task-relevant information, memory or motor output (“biased competition model”).

Questão 12

Questão
Which of the following statements is correct?
Responda
  • Mossy fibers are axons of CA3 primary cells.
  • Aberrant mossy fiber sprouting is one hypothesis for epileptogenesis in limbic epilepsies.
  • The cornu ammonis has filter function for downstream structures.
  • Seizure-like events in in vitro models can be induced by lowering of sodium in the artificial cerebrospinal fluid.
  • During seizure-like events in vitro light transmission of the tissue is decreased

Questão 13

Questão
Selective serotonine reuptake inhibitors
Responda
  • have been proven to be ineffective in moderate depression
  • are more effective in carriers of the 5-HTTLPR L-Allele.
  • are more effective than serotonine-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors.
  • should not be used in patients with suicidal ideation
  • are most effective in bipolar depression
