What is HCI?
Human Computer Interface - A study on how people interact and use the computer in achieving their goal
Human Computer Interaction - A study on how people interact and use the computer in achieving their goal
Human Computer Integration - A study on how organised an interface looks addressing white space issues
Human Computer Intervention - A study on how computers can be used to solve human problems
Principles of good design is to
manipulate human limitations
examine human needs and capabilities
understand human behavior, their capabilities and limitations
be able to cater the needs of all users without the need to know their limitations and capabilities
Human behavior is
learning how humans capture & process the information they receive & how they physically manipulate objects to reach their goals
learning how humans mentally manipulate objects to reach their goals
learning how humans physically capture & process the information they receive
learning how humans store the information they receive & how they mentally control their sensory system
Information processing is divided into
Sensory, Haptic, Cognitive
Sensory, Motor, Cognitive
Echoic, Motor, Cognitive
Sensory, Auditory, Cognitive
Memory is
the retention of information in the cognitive drive
the absorption of of short term memory to the long term memory
the retention and storage of information
the information that we remember
Cognitive process is concerned with
how we acquire experience, and how we store experience in our long term memory
how we acquire long term memory through short term memory
how we store experience in the cognitive drive
how experience can be manipulated and converted into long term memory
Explicit memory is associated with unconsciousness and divided again into the memory of events (episodic memory) and the memory for words, rules and language, etc (semantic memory).
True
False
Implicit memory does not involve awareness. It includes among other things, skills, habits and conditioned reflexes.
True
False
Sensory memory includes
iconic memory
echoic memory
haptic memory
working memory
Echoic Memory, the visual version of sensory memory, refers to the phenomenon in which there is a brief mental echo that continues to see after auditory stimuli has been seen.
True
False
Echoic memory is thought to last a little longer, for upwards of about three or four seconds.
True
False
Iconic memory is a type of short term visual memory (a sensory memory), named by George Sperling in 1960.
True
False
People can use the long-term memory to remember up to 7 ± 2 items or chunks of information.
True
False
Long-term memory
There are three main activities:
Storage
Retrieval
Interference
Forgetting
Recall requires information to be produced from memory.
True
False
Recognition requires more cognitive activity because the information is retrieved from triggering memory.
True
False
Interference is due to lack of rehearsal and after a long period of time, this information started to fade from the long-term memory
True
False
Decay is due to acquisition of new information.
True
False
"I remember when I was 6 years old, my parents threw me a big surprise party and invited all of my friends and family. I was truly a wonderful day".
From the scenario given, identify the type of memory used to retrieve this information.
Procedural memory
Implicit memory
Semantic memory
Episodic memory
At the police station, an officer was questioning a man who witness a crime. The witness said:
"I think the man was about 6 feet tall and had a mole on his face but I cannot recall where. He had either brown or black colored eyes."
Identify the type of memory used by the witness. There is more than one answer.
Short term memory - semantic memory
Long term memory - procedural memory
Short term memory - episodic memory
Sensory memory - iconic memory
Sensory memory - echoic memory
