Shawn was found sleeping on a park bench. When awakened by a police officer, he could not remember who he was or where he lived.
Later, investigators discovered that Shawn's wife had left him the night before after a violent fight in which he tried to attack her. Shawn insists that he has no memories of the dispute with his wife or even of having been married. His loss of memory illustrates: A) dissociative identity disorder.
B) dissociative possession state.
C) dissociative amnesia.
D) hebephrenic schizophrenia.
<em>Dissociative amnesia is a form of dissociative disorder</em> that includes <em>not being able to recall substantial private information which would normally not be lost with normal forgetting. </em>
Generally <em>it is triggered by trauma or anxiety</em>. After ruling out other causes of amnesia, diagnosis is based on history.
Spatial discrimination: allows us to recognize submodalities of a particular sensation.
Perceptual detection: is the simplest level of sensation
Magnitude estimation: is the ability to detect how much stimulus is applied to the body.
Pattern recognition: allows us to see a familiar face.
Explanation:
Spatial discrimination allows a person to built espacial relations, this means to localize a stimuli in different modalities in a different spaces.
Perception is the way any stimuli is first recibed, by the brain receptors. Is the first way a stimuli enters the brian.
Magnitud estimation: has to do with a way of perception to but it works to detect de amount of stimuli the body is receiving.
Pattern recognition: when perception works fine, the brain works to learn repetition or familiar stimulis, and this is how patterns are built and then recognition of them appear. This is a fundamental process of devepolment when a baby first recongnizes his mother's face for example.
The answer is left handed. It has been research and studies that there are at least ten percent of the adults in the following countries that claimed to be left handed and were made claims after it has been seen in the statistics.
