Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

37.5K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Potential Energy

42.7K
The energy stored by a structure and location of matter in space is called potential energy. For instance, raising a kettlebell changes its spatial location and increases its potential energy. Similarly, a stretched rubber band contains potential energy which, under certain conditions, can be converted into other forms of energy, such as kinetic energy.
Chemical bonds that form attractive forces between atoms also contain potential energy, called chemical energy. When a chemical reaction...

Cognition and Behavior

372
Social psychology examines the complex interplay between individual mental processes and social interactions. Historically, the field was divided into two domains: social behavior and social cognition. Researchers focusing on social behavior analyzed actions within social contexts, such as conformity, aggression, or cooperation. Meanwhile, social cognition researchers investigated how people perceive, interpret, and mentally represent their social environments. However, modern perspectives no...

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Language and Cognition01:27

Language and Cognition

800
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Cognitive Therapy01:25

Cognitive Therapy

1.0K
Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors. All cognitive therapies involve the basic assumption that human beings have control over their feelings, and that how individuals feel about something depends on how they think about it. Unlike psychoanalytic methods that delve into unconscious processes or humanistic approaches emphasizing...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Cochlear implant users with poor speech recognition showed prolonged P3 cognitive evoked potential latency, especially those deafened by meningitis. This suggests meningitis impacts central auditory processing beyond peripheral hearing loss.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Audiology
  • Cognitive Science

Background:

  • The P3 cognitive evoked potential reflects auditory processing and is crucial for evaluating speech recognition.
  • Cochlear implantation aims to restore hearing in deafened individuals, but outcomes vary.
  • Understanding central auditory processing in cochlear implant users is vital for optimizing rehabilitation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare P3 evoked potential latency and amplitude in post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants and varying speech recognition scores against normal-hearing controls.
  • To investigate the impact of deafness etiology, specifically meningitis, on auditory processing.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective cohort study involving 26 post-lingual deaf adult cochlear implant users (19 good, 7 poor speech recognition) and 26 age/education-matched controls.
  • Auditory cortical responses, specifically the P3 evoked potential, were recorded.
  • Speech recognition scores were used to categorize cochlear implant users.

Main Results:

  • Significant P3 latency prolongation was observed in cochlear implant users with poor speech recognition (G-) compared to controls (CG) and those with good speech recognition (G+).
  • No significant P3 latency difference was found between controls (CG) and good performers (G+).
  • All G- patients had deafness due to meningitis, indicating potential central auditory pathway impairment.

Conclusions:

  • Post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants and poor speech recognition exhibit prolonged P3 latencies, suggesting impaired central auditory processing.
  • Meningitis as a cause of deafness may have detrimental effects on both peripheral and central auditory functions.
  • P3 latency, not amplitude, appears to be a sensitive indicator of central auditory processing deficits in this population.
