22. Violation of mediated memory

Indirect is memorization using an intermediate (mediating) link in order to improve reproduction.

Violation of mediated memory in various groups of patients was investigated by S. V. Loginova and G. V. Birenbaum. In the works of A. N. Leontiev it is shown that the introduction of the factor of mediation improves the reproduction of words. But despite the fact that the mediating factor normally improves memorization, it turned out that in some patients the introduction of a mediating link often does not improve, but even worsens the possibility of reproduction.

Patients with impaired mediated memory remember words worse when they try to use a mediating link. Mediation does not help those patients who are trying to establish too formal connections (for example, for the word "doubt" the patient drew a catfish fish, because the first syllable coincided, and for the word "friendship" - two triangles).

When analyzing memory disorders, one should take into account the personality-motivational component.

To study the violation of the motivational component of mnestic activity, experimental studies were carried out. The subject was presented with about twenty tasks that he had to complete. This new motive acted as a sense-forming and motivating motive (the subject set himself a specific goal - to reproduce as many actions as possible).

The fact that mnestic activity is motivated can also be seen in the example of pathology.

The same experiments were carried out in patients with various forms of disturbances in the motivational sphere. It turned out that:

1) in patients with schizophrenia, there was no effect of better reproduction of incomplete tasks compared to completed ones;

2) patients with rigidity of emotional attitudes (for example, in epilepsy) reproduced incomplete actions much more often than completed ones.

Summing up, let's compare the results obtained in the study of healthy subjects and subjects with various mental illnesses.

1. In healthy subjects, VL/VZ = 1,9.

2. In patients with schizophrenia (simple form) VL/VZ = 1,1.

3. In patients with epilepsy VL/VZ = 1,8.

4. In patients with asthenic syndrome VL/VZ = 1,2.

Thus, a comparison of the results of reproducing unfinished actions in patients with various disorders of the motivational sphere indicates the important role of the motivational component in mnestic activity.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Electronic matchmaker 23.05.2000

The cunning Japanese have developed and put on sale a very original device - an electronic matchmaker. The small-sized device (9x4 cm) is equipped with a microprocessor and a transceiver with a range of about 20 m.

Having bought such a toy, men and women program it by entering their main "parameters", as well as requirements for a partner. In addition, they indicate the purpose of dating from an innocent desire to chat to serious marital intentions. Then the owner of the toy turns it on, puts it in his pocket and goes outside. The girl of his dreams comes towards him with the same electronic device. The devices enter into communication and, if their programs coincide, they give an audible signal. And then everything develops according to the eternal laws of nature.

The instrument has become popular. They are also interested in some European countries. So we are on the threshold of a new revolution in the field of communication between people.
