Memory Blog!


 

I believe the first test isn't valid because there's no timer testing your short term memory. I was able to keep this tab open and glimpse at it from the time I was in class until I got home, so the memorization wasn't very short term. My score were good though :).
I think this test was more valid than the past test because you couldn't stare at the picture for long periods of time. Also, photos repeated many time or repeated once at the beginning and again at the end, giving a variety to the test. I did good on this test too.
This test felt the most valid because it is testing different variations of something humans interact with in everyday life. We think we know what it looks like, but when it comes down to it we don't really know what it looks like. I was able to get this right first try.

Summary: I think I'm just good at memory tests.

Studies show that people gain validation from having others listens to them talk about their lives. 3. Wait a few seconds before answering a question. It'll make the person seem like you're deeply contemplating what they asked. 4. Rather them surface level compliment specific things that others may notice. We all feel happy getting compliments that are specific to our personality. 5. If you're in a group setting try to highlight things they do well.

He finally was showing me some affection until my dad got up and left the room with Augar following closely behind.  Other than my dog's lack of interest for me, my childhood was largely characterized by dance and my family. In my last post I detailed the first time I received a major role in one of my dance shows, but what I didn't mentioned is that I recently dropped out of dance. While I miss it, I do enjoy having more free time, and my sleep schedule is ten times better than it used to be. Furthermore, a key part of my life was weekly hangouts with my family. Every week all my aunts, uncles, and cousins would meet up at my grandma's house and spend the whole day together. We would play poker and Super Smash Bros, watch movies like harry potter, and play tag chair hide and seek (a game my oldest cousins created).  School wise, I remember being one of...
