| Question |
Answer |
| Neuropsychological approach |
theoretical model that IDs which components of a process(e.g.reading) are intact and which are impaired |
| Information-processing model |
"box and arrow" representations of cognitivew processes and interactions b/t these processes |
| the boxes and arrows are... |
box=representations/information storesarrows=activation or connectivity |
| computational model |
computer simulation of cognitive representations and processes that underlie |
| models are based upon |
empirical evidence from single case studies of brain-damaged people |
| Cognitive Information processing model features |
functional modularity and anatomical modularity |
| functional modularity |
components operate relatively independently of other components |
| anatomical modularity |
some of the components are localized in different parts of the brainfunctional mod does not equal anatomical mod |
| disadvantages of Cognitive processing models |
no info how processing or connectivity happens, and models can't explain (very well) syndromes with complex symptoms (deep dyslexia) |
| Auditory Processing |
the understanding of spoken wordsheard word--AAS--AIL--semantic system |
| auditory analysis |
AAS ID of phonemes in sound wave |
| Auditory input lexicon |
AIL stores of familiar spoken words |
| Semantic system |
activation of meaning/representation of the heard word |
| Repetition of words |
SOL--PL--speech/articulation |
| Speech ouput lexicon |
SOL stores of known words |
| Phoneme level |
PL store of individual speech sounds |
| Auditory Agnosias |
problems recognizing auditory stimuli while the hearing is intact |
| Pure word deafness Characteristics |
1.inability to comprehend speech sounds 2.good comprehension of nonverbal sounds 3.mild verbal expressive word retrieval problems |
| Repetition routes for real words (2) |
1.lexical non-semantic= AAS--AIL--SOL--PL2.lexical semantic=AAS--AIL--SS--SOL--PL |
| repetition route for non-words |
non-lexical/non-semantic=AAS--PL |
| Lemma level = |
semantic level |
| spoonerisms/malapropisms |
error is a real word, error and target are unrelated, and error and target are closely realted in pronunciation |
| Freudian slips |
slips of the tongue that reflect repressed thoughts. Semantic in nature |
| Tip of the tongue TOT |
a feeling of knowing the word, some knowledge of the souns structure is preserved, and phonemic cueing can help with word retreival |
| semantic naming errors |
a word substitution that is related to target word |
| phonemic paraphasias |
non-word substitution /bkt/--basket |
| fromal paraphasia |
real word substitution biscuit--basket |
| semantic system (conceptual system) |
database containing the meaning of words and symbols. countless facts about the word. |
| unimodal store hypothesis |
one central store of meaning that can be accessed from different modalities (vision, taste, smell, sound, touch) |
| imagability effect |
the degree to which an item is imageable |
| concreteness effect |
the degree to which an item in concrete/abstract |
| familiarity effect |
affects semantic organization, that highly familiar words are easier to recal than less familiar |
| regular words |
words that have common letter patterns and can be easily sounded out |
| irregular words |
words that can'y be accurately decoded because they don't conform 1:1 grapheme:phoneme |
| visual analysis system |
VAS IDs features consistent wih letter shapes. Letter positioning encoding |
| Visual input lexicon |
VIL a store of familiar words. Recognition of familiar words. |
| Grapheme-Phoneme conversions |
GPC conversion of unfamiliar letter strings into phoneme strings |
