chess is considered as a cognitive game because of severe engagement of the mental resources during playing. the purpose of this study is evaluation of frontal lobe function of chess players with matched non-players. wisconsin card sorting test (wcst) data showed no difference between the player and non-player groups in preservation error and completed categories but surprisingly showed signifi...
متن کاملFrontal lobe function in temporal lobe epilepsy
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is typically associated with long-term memory dysfunction. The frontal lobes support high-level cognition comprising executive skills and working memory that is vital for daily life functioning. Deficits in these functions have been increasingly reported in TLE. Evidence from both the neuropsychological and neuroimaging literature suggests both executive function an...
متن کاملContrasting mechanisms of impaired attentional set-shifting in patients with frontal lobe damage or Parkinson's disease.
Tests which assess the ability to shift cognitive set modelled after the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test are particularly sensitive to impairments in patients with Parkinson's disease as well as in patients with frontal lobe damage. However, the underlying mechanisms responsible for the similar deficits observed in the two patient groups are not well understood and may not be identical. For example...
متن کاملComparison of set-shifting ability in patients with chronic schizophrenia and frontal lobe damage.
Neuropsychological studies of patients with schizophrenia have consistently identified deficits on tests sensitive to frontal lobe function. One paradigm that has been widely used is that of attentional set-shifting using the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST). In the present study, patients with chronic schizophrenia and with frontal lobe lesions were assessed on a computerised set-shifting ta...
