Memory Test....Don't be scared!! LOL!!
| Thu, 10-01-2009 - 12:22pm |
I came across this memory test and it was
kind of fun to take to see how well I'd do.
I got a good score, but if I had known this tip,
I would have done even better. I'm going to
wait a few days and take it again.
Here's the tip...pay attention to which photos
are part of catagory 1 and catagory 2.
Okay..go for it!
My score is below the link.
If the link doesn't work, try the next one.

Temporal memory score
( when you saw it )
( when you saw it )
Your score: 91%
Average score: 68%
This is a measure of how often you recognised a photo and matched it to the correct part, instead of just remembering which ones you'd seen. From all the photos you recognised, you matched: 21 photo(s) to the correct part.
Sleep scientists say that:
- recognition memory for faces is unaffected by sleep loss. A person who has not slept for as much as 35 hours can perform as well as someone who is not sleep deprived.
- the area of the brain that controls temporal memory can be affected by prolonged sleep loss and/or ageing. So a healthy 65 year old who sleeps normally would be able to perform this test similarly to a 20 year old who has gone without sleep for 36 hours.
