Cognition in Action
Across
- 4. The smallest significant unit of sound in a given language.
- 5. This type of processing is driven by prior knowledge/experiences where the processed information influences perception and processing of new stimulus messages.
- 9. A mental image of a stimulus without external stimulation of sensory organs.
- 10. This type of search is performed fast, in parallel and primarily for targets defined by one feature (i.e. color, shape, movement, or orientation).
- 12. A mental concept that informs a person about what to expect from a variety of experiences and situations. They are often developed based on information provided by life experiences then stored into their memory.
- 13. The way we manipulate information in our brains.
- 14. How one thinks about their own thinking.
- 15. Melody of intonation, rhythm, and emphasis.
- 16. Difficulty of arranging thoughts in an ordered sequence of words.
- 17. Passive storage system for relevant information.
- 18. A visual representation of the spectrum of frequencies in a sound.
- 24. Visible movements of any part of your body which you use to communicate.
- 25. How information is lost from short term memory.
- 27. Concentration of mental effort on sensory or mental events.
- 29. Process of creating something original and worthwhile
- 30. A memory strategy that uses associations in order to improve memory recall.
- 31. Mental shortcut.
Down
- 1. A mental representation of categories (i.e. things that "belong together").
- 2. An implicit memory effect in which exposure to one stimulus influences the response to another stimulus.
- 3. Disorder where people do not form mental images.
- 6. Awareness/perception of one's environment by that person (associated with controlled focus attention).
- 7. A mental representation of geographic environment/surroundings.
- 8. The way speech is produced where many phonemes are produced simultaneously.
- 11. Process of reasoning from one (or more) statements to a logical conclusion.
- 17. Refers to a portion of LTM that processes ideas and concepts that are not drawn from personal experience.
- 18. Disorder where people "join sensations" (i.e. see sounds, hear shapes, etc.).
- 19. An exhaustive search used to determine meaning of presented information/stimulus.
- 20. How our brains interpret sensory information.
- 21. Theory that behavior can be explained in terms of conditioning.
- 22. The process of encoding information into long term memory using repetition.
- 23. 3-D shapes that form visual objects (recognition by components theory).
- 26. The recognition of an object.
- 28. When a blind person can respond to visual stimuli that they do not consciously see
