vi) Cambridge Neuropsychological Testing Automatized Battery (CANTAB) Spatial Span (Luciana, 2003): This computerized task assesses visuo spatial working memory and is a two-dimensional version of the Corsi Block Task.
The proposed algorithm reduces the undesirable effects of those priority inversions because the blocked task can finish its execution in its own server or in the server of the blocking task, whichever has the nearest deadline.
We describe a study in which 60 low-level high-school students solved a proportional reasoning task, the "blocks" task as individuals and/or in dyadic interaction.
The data_flow_direction specifies the passing of data elements from a block-task instance to the corresponding sub-workflow that defines its implementation.
For example, bilinguals performed significantly better on a backward version of the Corsi blocks task, but not on the forward version, or on the self-ordered pointing task, a complex non-verbal measure (Bialystok et al., 2008).
Mildly to moderately affected Parkinsonian patients (n=15) and controls (n=15) performed the Corsi blocks task concurrently with tasks designed to load on the visuo-spatial sketch pad (spatial tapping) or the central executive (random interval repetition).
Working memory (Corsi blocks task) was related to the discrimination threshold at a duration of 800 ms after controlling for full-scale IQ (FIQ) in the ADHD group, but this did not survive the Bonferroni correction.
Previous studies of schizophrenia have used blocked task paradigms and, more recently, "rapid event-related" designs in which stimuli of different types are presented close together in an intermixed fashion.
This is a computerised version of the Corsi Blocks task assessing spatial working memory capacity.
We quantified working memory performance using a vertical analogue of the Corsi blocks task and also by measuring the number of revisits of previously identified targets in the touch screen visual search task.
