25
the memory task results improve if the type of processing used in encoding is the same type during retrieval
transfer-appropriate processing
26
transforms new memories from fragile to permanent state
consolidation
27
two types of consolidation
synaptic and systems consolidation
28
rapid, occurs at synapses
synaptic consolidation
29
gradual, reorganization of neural circuits
systems consolidation
30
two types of memory loss and injury
retrograde and graded amnesia
31
loss of memory for events PRIOR to the trauma
retrograde amnesia
32
memory for recent events is MORE FRAGILE than for remote events
graded amnesia
33
this is the REACTION of the organism to a threatening or oppressing situation (Selye, 1930)
stress
34
external cause
stressor
35
does long lasting or recurring stress detrimental to health
yes
36
what is the emotional state which results from DISCREPANCy between the level of DEMAND and ABILITY to cope
occupational stress
37
this can be a negative emotional experience associated with unpleasant feelings
stress
38
stressors
job control social security job distress task and performance demand job security responsibility physical environment problems complexity
39
category of stressors
environmental psychological life stress work overload, underload, and sleep deprivation
40
environmental stressors (NVTAL)
bnoise vibration thermal air quality lighting
41
psychological stressors (PCA)
psychological cognitive appraisal
42
this results from perceived threat of harm or loss of self-esteem
psychological
43
less likely to experience stress if people feel more in control of the situation
cognitive appraisal
44
circumstance on the job and personal life. may be related to lack of attention, resources and effort put into the job
life stress
45
effects of stress (PPEipH)
psychological physiological efficiency of info processing health
46
____ direct physiological measures of stress
no
47
what are some extensive questionnaire surveys?
mood checklist psychosocial questionnaires physiological measures
48
stress indicates ___
mismatch
49
some amount of stress INCREASES ___ and ___
aspiration, motivation
50
___ use of person’s capabilities lead to ___
underuse, dissatisfaction
51
if demands ____ indiv’s capacity to cope, ___ develops
exceed, distress
52
fatigue (LD)
loss of efficiency disinclination of effort
53
two types of fatigue
muscular & general
54
muscular performance DECLINES as strain INCREASES (reduced power)
muscular fatigue
55
muscular fatigue has ___ movement and response time
slower
56
general sensation of weariness
general fatigue
57
other types of fatigue (EGMNCC)
eye fatigue - visual straining general bodily fatigue - physical overloading mental fatigue nervous fatigue - psychomotor chronic fatigue - long term effects circadian fatigue
58
symptoms are ___almost all of the time
latent
59
chronic/clinical fatigue states that there is a___ weakening of drive and unwillingness to work
general
60
how to measure fatigue
there is no way of directly measuring the extent of fatigue
61
long periods of driving led to a reduced ability to discriminate bet. sensory impressions and a loss of efficiency
traffic fatigue
62
__ hours of driving brings a distinct lowering of alertness and increases risk of accidents
4 hrs
63
sleep loss leads to
fatigue: sleep deprivation & circadian rhythm
64
remedy to sleepiness
get more sleep - 3-4hrs napping - 2hr after 54hrs awake; 15mins in general sleep credits - extra sleep program for sleep management other sources - caffeine
65
assigns workers permanently to different shifts
shiftwork
66
measurable quantity of info processing demands
mental workload
67
to maintain workload level that will allow acceptable performance
mwl assessment
68
factors affecting MWL
MWL will increase if: accuracy ⬆️ time demands ⬆️ # of tasks ⬆️ exposure to heat or noise
69
measure of MWL
primary task and secondary task measures
70
this directly examines the performance of the operator: task difficulty ⬆️, performance ⬇️
primary tasks measures
71
workload is assessed by the degree to which performance deteriorates in dual task situation
secondary task measures
