The type of cognitive skill I was looking for is what cognitive developmental stage children need to be at to be able to conserve and my colleague used Piaget’s Conservation Test involving Numbers to determine this. Background Information I am using the narrative method for this cognitive observation. The room in which I carried out this observation was a pre-school

In the article‚ “The Cognitive Psychology of Pick-up Lines” by Scott Barry Kaufman written in 2012‚ Kaufman explores the behavioral impacts of first impressions through the use of pick-up lines by analyzing the results of multiple studies. The first research analyzed was conducted by using three different types of pick-up lines (direct‚ innocuous‚ or cute/flippant gambits) in a variety of settings. The researcher reported that cute/flippant gambits were rated as the least attractive among women and

before this presentation I did not know much at all about preventative pregnancy options and how they are "used." Ms. Johnson made it very clear in the beginning that she would present this somewhat awkward topic in a funny and engaging manor. After she had introduced herself she started making everyone laughing about the preventative pregnancy types! I believe she first started with the condom and how she lost her penis‚ which was extremely funny! I know this started the presentation off very well

Presentation Skills Introduction Presentations are a way of communicating ideas and information to a group. A good presentation has: • Content - It contains information that people need. Unlike reports‚ it must account for how much information the audience can absorb in one sitting. • Structure - It has a logical beginning‚ middle‚ and end. It must be sequenced and paced so that the audience can understand it. Where as reports have appendices and footnotes‚ the presenter must be careful not to loose

I really enjoyed this article because I’ve always been very interested in cognitive enhancement. Anything that can make humans think better‚ faster‚ or easier is a huge step forward.

For example‚ if you text all day everyday you aren’t paying much attention because it’s the norm. However‚ if you’re learning a new skill you constantly have to think about it because you’re not used to
