An anxiety disorder is diagnosed if the persons response is not appropriate for the situation, if the person cannot control the response, or if the anxiety interferes with their normal functioning. Anxiety disorders include post traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorders, specific phobias, panic disorders, generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder. Psychotic Disorder - Psychotic disorders involve distorted awareness and thinking. Two of the most common symptoms of psychotic disorders are hallucinations - the experience of images and sounds that are not real, such as hearing voices and delusions, which are false beliefs that the ill person accepts as true,

365 – Understand the process and experience of dementia Outcome 1 1. Dementia Syndrome is caused by damage to the brain cells. This damage causes interference with brain cells causing them to not be able to communicate to eachother. When brain cells can’t communicate normally thinking, feelings and behaviour can be affected by it. The brain has different regions, each of which is responsible for a different function.
It is understood to be a disorder of pain processing and sensitivity. As described before serotonin, catecholamines, and dopamine all have a role in the pathophysiology of this disease. Abnormal functions of the stress response system of the body and the central nervous system are both to blame for fibromyalgia. The serotonin levels within the body have a large role, as this neurotransmitter helps to control pain. Fibromyalgia is often present when an individual has low levels of this specific neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.
Migraine headaches, other body changes that affect brain function, medications, depression, family problems and other physiological changes may mimic brain damage. Any changes in interpersonal behavior, attention, foresight and an inhibition of appropriate behavior point to the frontal lobes, usually with damage to the olfactory
It has been widely reported that autistic people have unusual sensory perceptual experience that may involve hypo- and hypersensitivity, fluctuation between different volumes of perception and difficulty interpreting a sense. Some of the perception difficulties for autistic people ; viewing thing literally without interpretation, delayed processing for example, phrases, words or sentences may take time to process. 5 The autistic spectrum describes a range of conditions such as; pervasive developmental disorders includes autism, Asperger syndrome, rett syndrome, childhood
Summary-Critique of Professional Journal Article A Lesson Cycle for Teaching Expository Reading and Writing Jessica Harvie Southeastern University Research-Based Practices of Reading and Writing Instruction EDUC 5433 October 12, 2013 Dr. Janet Deck The two newly credentialed English teachers taught a five week long summer course educating 30 sixth graders and 31 seventh graders. The goal for these students was to be promoted to the next grade by the start of the next school year. The teachers taught study and English skills to these California middle school students who were required to attend class in order to be promoted. The participants were comprised of 20 sixth grade males and 10 females which included 21 Latinos and 9 white, non-Latino students. The seventh grade population consisted of 20 males and 11 females of which 19 students were Latino and 12 students were white or non-Latino.
A key feature of Barkley’s model is that inhibition serves as a trigger for secondary effects in various executive functions, including working memory. Working memory is a system of interacting cognitive components that support the storage and mental manipulation of information over brief periods. Although working memory shares a neuroanatomical association with the frontal lobes, current evidence suggests that in cognitive terms at least, it is distinct from other executive functions such as inhibition. Individuals with ADHD exhibit substantial working memory deficits, particularly in visuo-spatial tasks. In contrast, performance in short-term memory tasks, such as forward recall of digits, words, and spatial locations, tends to be within age-expected
