<p>Levels: Information retention is dependent on how much focus you put into it.
3-box: sensory, STM, LTM
information-processing: encoding, storage, retrieval.</p>

<p>Three Box is a combo of Sensory Memory, Short Term Memory, and Long Term Memory.</p>

<p>Your levels of processing was correct =]</p>

<p>Q: In lamens terms, differentiate between recognition and recall.</p>

<p>Woo, I'm still up (yay for West Coast!). </p>

<p>What do you guys predict will be on the FR?</p>

<p>Q: What are split-brain patients?</p>

<p>Split brain patients are people that had a medical operation in which their brain was split into their two hemispheres to treat disorders such as epilepsy.</p>

<p>^ From memory, am I correct?</p>

<p>I don't like predicting what will be on the FR. I just study everything.</p>

<p>yeaa i really wanna know about the FRQs too =(
@llpitch
no idea wut lamens terms is...but recognition is you only have to identify the answer (such as MC) and recall is you have to come up with your answers without any hint (such as frq)</p>

<p>I have a question! <em>><</em>
you know theres this type of question..where they ask something like,
"if sara is a split-brain patient, and a baseball is shown at her right visual field, would she be able to name it? would she be able to point to it?"</p>

<p>and...
"if theres a mosquito on one of your hands in your right visual field, which hand would you use to hit it?"</p>

<p>I'm SO confused about this :/</p>

<p>Lamens terms means in regular talk - like how you speak to people in real life.</p>

<p>Recognition is remembering something by matching a current event with a memory you have. </p>

<p>Recall is remembering something with an external hint. </p>

<p>Could someone else explain that more? I don't really understand the difference between the current event and the external hint.</p>

<p>kawaii - those deal with the different uses of your left and right hemispheres in the brain. Study the differences.</p>

<p>STUDY THE TYPES OF DISEASES!
There's ALWAYS a question or two on that. Last year we had a whole FRQ on schizophrenia.</p>

<p>Q: At what stage of language acquisition do children begin to learn grammar and syntax rules?</p>

<p>hmm :(
so wut would the answer b for my questions?</p>

<p>brb >< <em>talkin on the phone</em></p>

<p>Okay, goodnight everyone, good luck!</p>

<p>I don't really know what "right visual field" is, so I don't want to tell you a wrong answer =[</p>

<p>good night reversepsych =D</p>

<p>@lilpitch:
i think recognition is the one that has external hints..like MC
and recall has no hints, like FRQ</p>

<p>Q: At what stage of language acquisition to children begin to learn grammar and syntax rules?
A: ehhh..gahh :O no idea about this</p>

<p>^ The answer is the telegraphic speech stage. This is the stage when toddlers begin to combine words into sentences.</p>

<p>Q: What is an algorithm?</p>

<p>A procedure or formula for solving a problem.</p>

<p>I think I'm just going to finish my homework for other subjects and call it a night. Tomorrow--10 chapters of Barron's to read! :( I had a lot of distractions today... Night.</p>

<p>hmm...for clarification, is this the right order for speech stage-->
babbling, one word, two word, telegraphic?</p>

<p>Algorithm is the general rule...sorta like deductive reasoning?
its less prone to mistakes but its slower.</p>

<p>Q: what is parallel distributed processing?</p>

<p>Correct, an algorithm is a formula or rule that guarantees the correct answer.</p>

<p>Two word isn't a speech stage in Barrons. It's just babble -> one word (or holophrastic) -> telegraphic</p>

<p>Night blackberry =] I've still got 7 chapters of Barrons to read =O Tomorrow I have to dedicate the entire day to Phys B also =[</p>

<p>I think I'm gonna get off for the night as well. I still need to write an AP World essay and read some of Barrons. I'll be back on Monday night for some serious cramming =D</p>

<p>mkay cya guys~ :(</p>
