| working memory. | the term working memory refers to a brain system that provides temporary storage and manipulation of the information necessary for such complex cognitive tasks as language comprehension, learning, and reasoning. this definition has evolved from the concept of a unitary short-term memory system. working memory has been found to require the simultaneous storage and processing of information. it can be divided into the following three subcomponents: (i) the central executive, which is assumed to be ... | 1992 | 1736359 |
| fat suppression with an improved selective presaturation pulse. | chemical shift selective (chess) imaging is an efficient and easily implemented technique for suppression of the fat component in clinical images. a gaussian pulse is widely used as the selective presaturation pulse in the chess technique. however, a gaussian pulse hardly performs well even if the magnetic field is very carefully shimmed. in clinical applications, the fat and water peaks are always inhomogeneously broadened. we have analyzed the performance of the gaussian pulse in the presence ... | 1992 | 1545681 |

| error in chess: the apperception-restructuring view. | five protocol-analysis experiments with tactical, endgame, and strategic positions were conducted to study cognitive errors in chess players' thinking. it will be argued that chess players' errors can be only partially explained in terms of unspecified working-memory overload, because the working-memory loads caused by the solution paths are usually small. it is therefore necessary to consider apperceptive mechanisms also, as these control information intake. subjects fail either because they ar ... | 1992 | 1603886 |

| search heuristics of chess players of different calibers. | information-processing models of chess-playing ability have distinguished between players of different calibers solely in terms of perceptual encoding and recognition of chess configurations. a reanalysis of degroot's verbal protocols of 1965 indicates that players of different calibers direct their attention toward different areas of the board. grandmasters and masters consider squares that are affected by many pieces, while lesser players direct their attention toward squares on which the piec ... | 1982 | 7180947 |
| [maturation of evoked potentials to patterned stimuli, and sensitivity of the visual system to deprivation]. | a study was made of age peculiarities of eps to spatially structurized stimuli in the shape of chess fields with different dimensions of their cells in children and juveniles with normal vision, aged from seven to seventeen. heterochroneity has been established in maturation of eps to a homogeneous and a spatially structurized stimuli. in accordance with the criterion of "maturity" of the ep to a spatially structurized stimulus, an enhanced probability of "mature" eps appearance was observed wit ... | 1982 | 7158033 |

| visual short-term memory and aging in chess players. | young (m = 20 years) and older (m = 54 years) equally skilled chessplayers reconstructed slides of chess diagrams shown for 1, 2, and 4 sec either immediately or following 15 sec of interpolated processing. recall was more accurate for younger players, with the gap widening as viewing time increased. interpolated processing decreased accuracy and increased retrieval time equally in the two groups. measures of chunking indicated no age-related differences. these results imply that there is an age ... | 1981 | 7264247 |

| aging and skilled problem solving. | information-processing models of problem solving too often are based on restrictive age ranges. on the other hand, gerontologists have investigated few problem-solving tasks and have rarely generated explicit models. as this article demonstrates, both fields can benefit by closer collaboration. one major issue in gerontology is whether aging is associated with irreversible decrement or developmental plasticity. if both processes occur, then an appropriate strategy for investigating aging is to e ... | 1981 | 6453184 |

| foreign body aspiration of grass inflorescences as a cause of hemoptysis. | although the sparsity of reports in the literature suggest aspiration of grass inflorescence is rare, in certain areas of the southern united states, aspiration of this type of foreign body is not so uncommon. four cases of aspiration of hordeum pusillium, often referred to as "cheat grass" are reported: three of the four patients had hemoptysis. the highest incidence of inhaled foreign bodies usually occur in young children, but all our four patients were older children or adolescents. the clin ... | 1980 | 7398419 |
| [sports medical examination of top class chess players (author's transl)]. | during an international chess championship tournament in munich, 14 participants were thoroughly investigated physically in order to find out generally the psychological maximum stress and the autonomic excitability as well as the circulatory conditions during the individual games and to study the metabolic load during the 18 day tournament. eight of the eleven players who participated in the blood determinations showed at least once during the competition marginal to increased cholesterol level ... | 1980 | 6775202 |
| cluster analysis of childhood temperament data on adoptees. | cluster analysis is used with behavioral data on 162 adoptees to assess temperament and to test the validity of the temperament typologies described by thomas and chess. data are divided into two groups by sex. results concur with the thomas-chess findings in identifying three main temperament groups: difficult, easy, and slow to warm up. membership in the difficult group predicted later childhood behavior disorder in both sexes. differing environmental factors associated with difficulty for mal ... | 1980 | 7406035 |
| do dental students cheat? | in a questionnaire survey, dental students from all four classes at the university of iowa college of dentistry were asked if they had cheated during their first and second years. they were then asked if they believed that others cheated. cheating was admitted to by 43 percent of the respondents, but 94 percent believed it was occurring. plagiarism was delineated as a form of cheating; while fewer students admitted to its use, the reported occurrence should be of concern in technique courses. re ... | 1979 | 292690 |

| effects of orienting tasks on recognition of chess positions. | two experiments using a levels-of-processing paradigm were performed to demonstrate the existence and usefulness of a semantic component in chess knowledge. experiment i compared forced-choice recognition of chess positions after a structural task (piece counting) as opposed to a semantic task (choosing a move). recognition accuracy, confidence, and familiarity ratings all showed a facilitation effect in the semantic condition. by including an orienting task that did not encourage semantic proce ... | 1978 | 752270 |
