    Behavioral Game Theory Analysis: Baron-Cohen, Leslie, And Frith

    In a groundbreaking study, Baron-Cohen, Leslie, and Frith (1985) compared children with Autism aged between 6 and 16 to two other groups which were, children who suffered from down syndrome aged from 7 to 17, and the control group which were children with no cognitive or social disorders aged from 3 to 6. In comparing these three groups Baron-Cohen et al found the cognitive ability of the three different populations differed. After looking at two different standardized test which were the British Picture Vocabulary Test which tested verbal ability by measuring the ability to match words to line drawings, and the Leiter International Performance Scale that measured non-verbal ability such as memory and visualization. Normal children scored the lowest on nonverbal measures with down syndrome group coming in second and the autistic group placing the highest.…

    KBIT 2 Summary

    As a measure of current general intellectual functioning, the KBIT-2 was administered and yielded a Verbal Score = 86±5; a Nonverbal Score = 55±5; and an IQ Composite Score = 66±4. The composite score falls within the very low or borderline educational classification at the 01st percentile rank per national age based norms and needs to be viewed with caution. Due to Hunter’s struggles with focus and difficulty attending to auditory instruction, his nonverbal score is felt to be an under representation of his actual performance. Repeated testing within the near future with this or a similarly constructed psychometric instrument would probably find Hunter scoring higher than an IQ band of 60 - 74. Analysis of KBIT-2 scores found Hunter demonstrating an unbalanced skill set between his verbal skills and his spatial, visually based skills.…

    Lucky's Dream Book Report

    At the beginning of Lucky’s Dream I never imagined where this book would have taken us over these past twelve weeks or so. I couldn’t have predicted the journey that lead four such uniquely different people to build a bond that bloomed into the most inspiring of friendships. From the beginning, Odysea and Jimmy had a one-of-a-kind friendship that slowly strengthened as their journey continued. It was their relationship, in my opinion that allowed for them to open their arms, minds and, more importantly, their hearts to Lucky and in the end Marion and Diane. It takes special minds, leaning abilities, and intelligences to undertake the events that began to unravel from the very first page of Lucky’s Dream.…

    Change Detection Theory

    Participants were given the Weschler's Intelligence Scale for children, following that WM and change detection tasks were administered to the group.

This experiment gives precedence to the fact that change detection is correlated with age and stimuli type (numbers vs.…

    Baddeley Working Memory Model

    Baddeley created the working memory model as a way of explaining short term memory. He proposed that it consisted of 3 subsections, a central executive, a phonological loop and a visuo-spatial sketchpad, these subsystems are then further fractionated. Logie (1995) proposed that the visuo-spatial sketchpad is divided into two components; a visual cache and an inner scribe. The inner scribe contains information on movement and spatial awareness. Whereas the visual cache stores information about visual form.…
