Document Summary
Unable to go from word sound to word production. Transcortical sensory: connection broken from word sound word meaning. Word deafness: connection broken from word sound sound stream. Less ffa (fusiform face area) activation no interest. Kids with autism seem indifferent to faces and people. May deal with things that we"re really interested in. When we look at people, we look at the eyes. No differential activation of speech sounds over non-speech sounds. Increased activity in caudate nucleus like (also the case of ocd) Crystalized: the ability to call up knowledge you have gained. As well as regular problem solving strategies (stored knowledge) If you start at a higher step on the stairs, you have further to go. General decline, the lower, the sooner you will be further down the decline. Fluid intelligence: has to do with processing speed. Crystallized, educational background has to do with this. *cognitive reserve: build up so much neural support (crystalized)
