Document Summary
Alan snyder magnetically turned on someone"s potential by turning off certain parts of the brain (using rtms). This allowed better access to low sensory information. He used 1hz to decrease activation of the left hemisphere to increase right hemisphere skills i. e. counting, drawing and reading tasks. The simplified information-processing model consists of an input a human and an output. This allows us to see how different parts of the brain use information to make tasks and processes meaningful. Richard schiffron created a 3-stage model of information processing; (input ) stimulus identification response selection. This occurs beyond our consciousness: pattern recognition: extracting patterns/features, use later in information processing. Training this can optimize performance in temporally demanding sports/tasks. Chase and simon asked 3 groups of participants to recall pieces on a chess-board; rookies, recreational players and professionals. In real game situations, chess masters had better performance and reached their peak performance quickly.
