cognitive control HIGH Flashcards
anatomy of control
PFC / complex cognition / matures late
deliberate brain
PFC / controlled , goal orientated
automatic brain
limbic system / automatic , reflexes + habit
system 1
dorsal prefrontal cortex
system 2
anterior cingulate
dorsal prefrontal cortex
maintains goal in working memory
establish attention
anterior cingulate
conflict monitoring
tells DLPFC to exert control
stroop effect
reaction delay between controlled /// automatic processing
stroop and low congruency
high stroop effect
cant be produced through expectations
cognitive control
goal orientated
planning and selection
context specific congruency
vary context (location)
item specific congruency
change congruency using blocks
what does congruency prove
evidence for the automatic/stimulus driven cognitive control
visual sequences
shown moving/changing shapes
passive viewing
pps select most familiar (evidence for rapid learning)
kopp 1994
central target
flanker effect present
correct for high congruency
reber 1967
memorise sentences
not told rules
asked to classify as gramma/not
grammatical sentences highest recall
bystander effect who
latane 1970
latane 1970
people unaware of their impact of others (deny)
statistical learning
language acquisition by infants - no attention required`
associative influences on choice
students learn word list
words with associations higher recall
nisbett and wilso 1977
four stockings shown - all same
pps chose pair in right - softest
maier 1931
chords
asked to put them together
researcher swung them
pps all succeeded
PFC damage
distractable / impulsive / socially inappropriate
case study WR
