How good is your memory?

  I did okay on this facial memory test. I believe this test is somewhat valid. It, like the other test, should have a timer to push the test-taker to move on. Because faces have a composition, the facial feature aspect is simpler.  I was startled since I expected a higher level of precision. The validity of this exam may be lower than that of other tests since it relies on matching photos that are repeated, whereas recalling what each picture was would be a more difficult job.  This exam requires you to memorize 12 words. The exam needs you to recollect all of the terms in no particular sequence. According to the test findings, any score between 5 and 9 indicates an average functional short-term memory. My score was an 8, which falls between between 5 and 9. I assume this test is only valid on the first try. 

Social Psychology

 Compliance: Doing certain actions because someone else said to do so -this player is going to listen to his coach Obedience: A form of social influence elicited in response to direct orders from an authority figure - the team going with the plan because the coach is in charge of the plays Social facilitation: Social phenomenon in which being in the presence of others improves individual task performance - Jordan Poole does better when there are a lot of pretty girls watching him play Group Polarization: The tendency for members of a group discussion to become a more extreme version of their positions prior to the beginning of the discussion  -this person could be passive but when it comes to his team he could do things like boo the other team or get into arguments Reciprocity Norms - the social standard that people who help others will receive equivalent benefits from them in return. -even though he was doing illegal kicks the opponent still continued the fight like it was no...

Deja vu is the feeling of having experiencing something. It is usually really quick and this odd sense can feel unsettling and inexplicable because your brain is telling you that you recognize a place, scene, or event that you know is brand-new to you. It’s not just a feeling of familiarity, but also the knowledge that the familiarity is false. Literature, cultural practices, and religion have all offered explanations for the origin of déjà vu over the years, including everything from reincarnation to subconscious recollections. A link between recurrent déjà vu and specific neurological diseases such temporal lobe epilepsy has been found in a review of the literature on the subject. (In people with this syndrome, déjà vu may occur prior to a seizure starting.) The precise causes are yet unknown in persons with normal brain function. Several hypotheses, connections, and conclusions include: less gray matter, a brief lag in neural transmission, or a brief split in a perceptual experience...

 My article was about the sense of hearing. Our sense of balance actually comes from our ears since it holds the vestibular system which helps us obtain equilibrium. Our ears contain the smallest and hardest bones in our body. Our hearing system never stops working because in the incident that a sound of danger happen out of nowhere then our hearing is used as a defense mechanism to trigger fight or flight. Apparently our hearing uses electric impulses which are created by the cochlea and organ of Corti. https://blog.kiversal.com/en/10-facts-about-ears-and-hearing/

Tingle was born April 16, 2006. It all started when he was training for a martials arts tournament with his sensei. While he was doing hardcore training with his blindfold, he fell back and crashed into the dojo's generator electrocuting himself. After the incident he has gained a 6th sense and the ability to control the good felling of a person. Now he is Tingle, a vigilante that fights villains and criminals with his adaptive perception of danger and being able to move his body so incredibly fast that it is virtually impossible to be able to hit him. While being able to dodge enemies, he also has the ability to manipulate the emotion of feeling good in others. He uses this to create happy thoughts running in the vigilante's mind, thus making them feel the need to not commit anymore crimes.

  Hi, I am Johnny and I was born on April 16, 2006. I do not remember when my first words were but I do remember that I had aspirations to become an engineer. I will graduate high school in 2024 and probably will go to Texas A&M or University of Houston to major in engineering and minor in computer science which will help me get a bachelor's and engrave a path to become a roboticist. I am not planning to get married or have any kids. I don't think I'll be able to retire because I predict that I will die in college from drinking and driving. Hopefully that doesn't happen though!!!!!!!
