Associative Prosopagnosia

1998, cited in Squire, 1992). Thus, this suggests that declarative and non-declarative memory are located

In an article by Alzheimer’s Association it mentions that many experts who study this type like to call it “Vascular Cognitive Impairment” because it better explains the idea that your vascular thinking skills can change and it can either be small or serve. Also, in this article it mentions that Vascular Dementia is account for 10 percent of cases and that is remains underdiagnosed even though it is considered common. B. Symptoms i. With this type of Dementia, the symptoms can be very different due to how badly the blood vessel are damaged after having the stroke. ii.

Ordinarily, most who hear this term believes it means seeing words wrong or reversing letters. Dyslexics ' are categorized as being unable to read, write, or spell (Schmitt & Clemens, 1994, Preface). The literal translation of dyslexia means “impaired words” (Schmitt & Clemens, 1994, p. 142), nevertheless dyslexia stretches far beyond reading and writing, although these are the most obvious handicaps, which Schmitt struggled with daily. Dyslexia causes a person to favor the right hemisphere of their brain than the left hemisphere, therefore “people with congenital or acquired dyslexia often have left-side handicaps that are so severe that most of their mental processes are delegated to the right hemispheres of their brains” (Schmitt & Clemens, 1994, p. 133). The left hemisphere of the brain is normally specialized in taking care of the analytical and verbal tasks, i.e. language skills, skilled movement, and analytical time sequence processing3.

It demonstrated that increase of ego depletion leads to a decrease of the feeling of guilt, and consequently affect one's prosocial behaviors. Given this, it can be assumed that a person would behave less morally if he/she is going through a hard time which requires a high level of willpower. Although the results supported the hypothesis, the article pointed out two limitations. Firstly, there was no non-guilt condition designed for the experiment.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is straightforward, while Erikson's Stages of Psychosocial Development are more point by point. Erikson has more stages of improvement, yet the necessities in every stage are satisfied by Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs pyramid. Maslow describes his unmet needs as deficiencies while Erikson classifies them as difficulties of development. (Maslow's compared to Erikson's,

When an individual watch someone else get hurt or even experience their own pain, they gain posteriori knowledge of something harmful. When comparing the two types, posteriori knowledge appears to more reliable than priori knowledge. Unlike the priori knowledge with its ambiguous origin, posteriori knowledge is testable through multiple exposure. Plato, however, disagrees. He states that not only is priori knowledge the true type of knowledge, but that posteriori knowledge is just a false opinion.

In working with clients with intellectual disability there were a few occasions whereby a service user had passed away and I noted this process to be very confusing for the clients. In this sense the Kubler-Ross model has highlighted some limitations on individuality by putting too much emphasis on progressing through these stages to the reach the acceptance stage, which can be seen as promoting some allowance of comfort (Konisberg 2011). However, people with intellectual disabilities may have complications in identifying and vocalising their emotions with grief and in some cases may not have the capabilities to ever experience the stage of acceptance. The Kubler-Ross model emphasizes communicating with the bereaved or dying as a person centred approach whereby talking about the experience helps identify emotions and provide suuport, but as Wijne & McEnhill (2008) maintain difficulties in communication is a major complication for supporting individuals with intellectual disabilities through issues of grief and loss, inevitably impacting on their symptom assessment and support they

I. The Attention Grabber: What would you do if you could not properly express yourself verbally? Picture this, you can understand what everyone else is saying, but the majority of people could not understand the words coming out of your mouth. Unfortunately, there are people who are either born or later in life encounter an illness or injury that causes them to be unable to speak fluently. II.

Importantly, they were impaired on the same test questions that were indicated by independent raters to be the most indirect and to require the most flexible use of task knowledge. These findings show that declarative and non-declarative memory differs with respect to the flexibility of the knowledge acquired by each system. Declarative knowledge is accessible to multiple response systems. Non-declarative memory is more encapsulated and has less access to systems not involved in the initial

Indeed, among healthy people there are many misconceptions about aphasia. Older people of course meet more problems with the phenomenon, but also younger people are confronted with it. One of the misconceptions is that aphasia patients are by default seen as ´dumb´

It can be something that interferes with memories, in some cases it can lead to misidentification of suspects involved in traumatic

The task performances of the dementia group were demonstrated by pointedly more unproductive actions, omission errors, and substitution errors when compared with younger adult and old age groups. Further, the dementia group engaged in considerably more irrelevant task actions (i.e., task actions, not related to the task at hand). Generally, the errors made by the dementia group expansively compromised their ability to complete the everyday tasks with accuracy. In many cases, alternate task actions were completed, alternate objects were used to complete tasks, and tasks were ended prematurely, or they performed irrelevant behaviors (Schmitter-Edgecombe and Parsey,

These type of dementia occurs about; this occurs due to the short-term memory loss. The other problem will be visual-spatial areas, reasoning, judgement and insight. Hippocampus is the region where it gets affected by Alzheimer’s disease, not only that there will be
