LIN 3716 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Short-Term Memory, Frontal Lobe, Speech Perception
Document Summary
Structures refer to the actual anatomy of the brain - cns, and the physiology of how they function, or work together. For example we all have hearts (anatomy) and all our hearts pump blood (physiology). Information processing refers to the organization, analyzes and synthesis of the incoming linguistic, auditory, visual, sensory, olfactory, taste, kinetics, proprioceptive, vestibular information. https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=jitz2i4vhfw https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=vxcbppcx6rk https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=kzo45hwxrwu. People process this information based on their individual life experiences, exposures, memories and cognitive abilities (intelligence). Structures from person to person are the same, but the way they work together to. Automatic processing routine behavior; thinking and activity. These tasks are integrated into a person"s repertoire. Effortful processing requires concentration and focus directly on the task in order to accomplish the behavior. Cognition and language are both regulated by the brain"s ability to process information. Attention awareness and focus on the incoming stimuli. Orientation sustaining attention over time = attention span.
