    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Children with special educational needs; Assessment; Working memory; Working memory training; Complex executive function; Planning; Metacognition; Mathematical learning difficulties; Barn i behov av stöd; Utredning; Arbetsminne; Arbetsminnesträning; Komplex exekutiv funktion; Planering; Metakognition; Matematiksvårigheter;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to explore the role of different assessment tools and training regimens in assessment and remediation for children with special educational needs in school. A central purpose of assessment explored was that it should inform remediation, teaching and instruction. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The neural substrates of non-conscious working memory

    Författare :Fredrik Bergström; Johan Eriksson; Lars Nyberg; René Marois; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; non-conscious; working memory; neural substrates; visual perception; consciousness; functional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI ;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Despite our distinct impression to the contrary, we are only conscious of a fraction of all the neural activity underlying our thoughts and behavior. Most neural processes occur non-consciously, and in parallel with our conscious experience. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Working Memory and Higher-Order Cognition in Children

    Författare :Carin Tillman; Gunilla Bohlin; Ann-Margret Rydell; John Towse; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Intelligence; executive function EF ; working memory; ADHD; children; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Higher-order cognitive functions, such as executive function (EF) and intelligence, are crucial to the everyday functioning of human beings. Gaining knowledge about these functions is important for our general understanding of human nature as well as for our ability to help those who may not develop these processes optimally. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Experimental studies of human-computer interaction : working memory and mental workload in complex cognition

    Författare :Erik Wästlund; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Information processing; Problem-solving; Working memory; ST-WM; LT-WM; Dual-task; Mental workload; Reading; Page layout; VDT; Convergent; Divergent; Psykologi; Psychology; Information processing; Problem-solving; Working memory; ST-WM; LT-WM;

    Sammanfattning : Complex cognition is readily described as cognitive tasks requiring the coordination of multiple steps of processing or tasks exceeding short term memory capacity. Similarly, mental workload may be described as the use and temporary expenditure of a finite amount of information processing capacity. LÄS MER
