Cognition Flashcards
Name 4 basic cognitive skills
Attention, Concentration, Orientation, Memory
A Crusty Old Man - gross acronym, but perhaps you’ll remember it now?? :)
The conceptualization of cognition applies to these statements, true or false:1. acquisition and use of information2. complex and interdependent mental processes3. adapt to environmental demands and expectations
TRUE
Implicit memory is also known as ____________
Procedural or non-declarative memory (info you remember unconsciously and effortlessly/things you are not purposely trying to remember)…examples are swinging a baseball bat, singing a familiar song, driving a car, or riding a bike)i disagree with this one hehehe….but the website stated specifically “Even after going years without riding one, most people are able to hop on a bike and ride it effortlessly”
Explicit memory is also known as ___________
Declarative memory (information you consciously work to remember/consciously recall)…such as the date and time of a doctor’s appointment, neuro knowledge for our final next week
3 different types of memory or phases of information processing are:
- sensory perceptual (encoding)
- short-term/working (storage)
- long-term (retrieval)
What two types of sensory-perceptual memory/encoding memory are there?
- visual - iconic
2. auditory - echoic
What two types of short-term/working memory/storage memory are there?Bonus: which one lasts longer (relatively speaking)
- primary
- working
Bonus: working lasts a little longer than primary
What two types of long-term memory/retrieval memory are there?
- explicit
2. implicit
Name 6 higher level/executive function skills:
Abstraction, Categorization, Organization/Planning, Mental Flexibility, Initiation, Problem Solving
possible acronym, keeping with the above gross one: A Crusty Old Man Is Probably….(you get to fill in the blank!)
Are these statements about problem solving, true or false?
- recognize and analyze relevant and missing info
- draw conclusions re: given situations based on certain principles in a systematic manner
- formulate a solution based on details that lead to a standard conclusion
- generate abstract concepts that deviate from standard concepts
TRUE
Name 4 cognitive theoretical models:
- Cognitive Disabilities Model (Claudia Allen)
- Dynamic Interactional Model (Joan Toglia)
- Neurofunctional Approach (Gordon M. Giles)
- Cognitive Rehabilitation Model (Sara Avervach and Noomi Katz)
possible acronym: Could Dianne Never Create….another test for us??
Can you name 3 populations in which the Cognitive Disabilities Model works well?
- Dementia 2. TBI 3. SMI
What model does this describe?: “provides a way to describe deficits through observable limitations in routine task behaviors,” “can predict what a person will be able to do, what assistance will be needed, any safety considerations”
Cognitive Disabilities Model (CDM)
These interventions describe which model:
- pictorial sequencing book
- scheduling
- client education
- external cuing
Cognitive Disabilities Model (CDM)
True or False, the Dynamic Interaction Model views cognition as an interaction between the person, activity, and environment
TRUE
“Utilizes multiple activities in different contexts for increased understanding and occupational performance” describes which model…
Dynamic Interaction Model (DIM)
These interventions describe which model:
- discussion of roadblocks/challenges
- developing personalized plan or checklist
- making a daily rating of use of strategies
- use organizational strategies across different activities
Dynamic Interaction Model (DIM)
What population can the neurofunctional approach be used with?
TBI and other neurological conditions
True or False, this describes the neurofunctional approach: “Client and therapist collaboratively select performance goals and develop task analysis and focus on ‘learning by doing’”
TRUE
These examples of interventions apply to which model:
- ID of individual’s goals
- consider client strengths and weaknesses
- task analysis of specific performance
- retraining interventions
- repetition
- feedback
Neurofunctional approach
