An individual who could trace a picture of a bicycle with his or her finger but could not recognize it as a bicycle is most likely to have sustained damage to the visual association area.
Explanation:
Visual association or association cortex area is the cortical area present in between the auditory, visual, somatosensory cortices.
All these cortices integrate through sensory, gustatory, visual, and auditory impulses. This complete sensory integration aids to recognize shapes, form, image, texture of various objects and their interrelation through higher-order association.
Damage to this visual association areas cause associative visual agnosia. With this condition, a person although is able to see or feel an object cannot recognize the object due to impairment of attention/recognition skill, intelligence.
A visually agnostic person, although can see, cannot identify an object by his/her sight; but can feel the object through touch, smell, or sound.
Answer:
B. acute stress
Explanation:
Acute stress: In psychology, the term "acute stress" is described as one of the minimal damaging types of stress, and is considered a common stress type. Therefore, an individual experiences "acute stress" at various times throughout his or her day. Acute stress is often experienced as an instant "perceived threat" and it can be psychological, physical, or emotional.
Symptoms: Difficulty breathing, palpitations, nausea, chest pain, etc.
Example: Argument with someone, traffic jam, etc.
In the question above, Professor Woster is using the acute stress paradigm.
