"Memorizing the 10 words" - a technique AR

testing is to identify the speed and magnitude audioverbal memorize 10 words.Methods used to determine the amount of play after a certain period of time.The result of the study becomes obtain information about whether a child is a long time to work out and purposefully audioverbal material.

What is the procedure

The study used a simple one or two-with frequency, but are completely different in the sense of 10 words.The technique involves the use of the singular and the nominative.Usually the number of repetitions can be up to five, although it happens that you need to repeat the words to a perfect memory.For clarity, the results after the research building curve.

This involves the study of such characteristics:

• volume of audio-verbal memory;
• mnestic particular activities;
• speed memorizing words in the provided amount;
• amount of play after a time;
• characteristics of auditory perception.

Testing

ARLuria proposed a method for determining the fatigue, the intensity of attention, much memorization.It is convenient because it does not involve the use of any special equipment.The only condition to get a really clear result is the observance of silence.The fact is that any noise (especially if it is talking) distracting and reduces the ability to memorize the words.

study can be carried out with children from 7 years.Healthy subjects typically 9-10 memorize words.The methodology assumes that the delayed result (memory test after a time interval) should show 80% of the previously received verbal chain.When working with children under 7 years using a smaller amount of initial information - 5-8 words.

Examples chains for research:

1. Cat.Rog.Desk.Mushroom.Honey.Ray.Water.Circle.Bridge.Smoke.
2. bread.Weight.Brother.Proceedings.Bow.Hedgehog.Mustache.Pain.Window.Tea.
3. Keith.Umbrella.Rom.Running.Laugh.The dog.Rose.Stump.Qom.Ruff.

Home study

Before the testing, the experimenter writes one line of 10 words.The technique involves the use of simple items that do not cause obvious associations between them.In most cases, each inspector uses a number of verbal one.But if the testing is carried out in a group of children, you need to prepare several such chains as subjects can begin to make each other tips.It is important in this experiment to pronounce the words clearly and strictly adhere to the instructions.

first need to tell the child such a phrase: "I will read 10 words.They need to listen carefully.When you're done reading, you need to list the words that you remember.Saying they can be in any order.Is that clear? ".Slowly and well pronouncing, the experimenter reads the words.When the child repeats them, the protocol methodology proposed by ARLuria, you need to put crosses.

This is followed by another part of the work.I must say, "I read the same words as in the first time.And you need to repeat the ones that you have already referred to (a) and the rest of that time missed (a). "Then the experimenter, just like the first time, said crosses words called child.

then need to do a few repetitions of the same procedure.Explanations are no longer needed, since the experimenter is sufficient to say the following: "Again."

Further refinements

In those cases where the subjects are called additional words, the verifier must mention them alongside existing crosses.If there are repetition, each time a new need to put another mark.

It so happens that during the investigation the child is trying to tell something or comment on.In such cases it is necessary to explain to him that it now needs to be done.In fact distracting conversations technique "10 words" (Luria) prohibits.

After 5-recurrence of one-time experimenter starts to do other tests.But after 50-60 minutes back to the memory lane and asked to tell it again.But prochityvaniya have used 10 words to remember technique involves no more.These are now the repetition of circles should be noted, in order to avoid possible errors.

Filling a table and the construction of the curve memory

protocol in the study is as follows:

In the future, it is used to construct the curve memory.To do this, on the horizontal axis number of repetitions, and vertically - the number of words correctly named.The slope may be different.Children from 7 years of age who are healthy, the first 3 reps are presented in the form of one of the following options:

1. 5, 7, 9.
2. 6, 8, 9.
3. 5, 7, 10.

That is,the third repetition of the child is able to name the 9-10 words.But upon further prochityvanii number of words called the number becomes equal to 9-10.

Diseases of Children, which indicates the curve

mentally retarded children tend to call a small number of words.It happens that a child says a word too much.And then stuck on this error, reiterating her.Such moments in testing show the children with organic diseases of the brain.In addition, in a state of disinhibition test called a lot of unnecessary words.

also graph the curve may indicate severe fatigue and low vigilance.That is, by repeating the words of a child refers to 8-9, and then - still fewer of them.This indicates a distraction and forgetfulness in life, causes a transient asthenia.The curve may not have a sharp slope and look in a zigzag manner, indicating that the instability and fluctuations in attention.

As the technique of memorizing 10 words in rare cases is to ensure that the subjects are beginning to say the same part number.The stabilization of this kind indicates a lack of interest in improving the outcome of emotional lethargy.Low-lying direct evidence of dementia and indifference when paralytic syndromes.

number of words transferred the test an hour after the last repetition, he speaks his mind, literally.Therefore, using different, but the same type of difficulty verbal chain, can be repeated this study to see the effectiveness of the treatment, to assess the course of the disease.
