This article aims to reveal interaction between verbal intelligence and efficiency of intentional and incidental verbal information processing. Participants were exposed to pairs of words about which they have to decide whether a city name was presented in each pair. Thus, semantics of words was processed intentionally, whereas their phonemic features (rhymed vs. unrhymed pairs) were processed incidentally. The efficiency of stimuli processing was estimated in two different cognitive tasks – word free-recall task and word usage in new creative task. It was found that verbal intelligence was positively correlated with number of recalled stimuli which were congruent to both intentional and incidental processing conditions. Moreover, verbal intelligence was positively correlated with usage of incongruent stimuli which were processed incidentally in creative task. The results are discussed in terms of contemporary frameworks of information processing in verbal tasks.

The purpose of the study was a description of hemispheric specialization characteristics of normally developing right- and left-handed children and determination of what differences in such characteristics, if any, existed between young normally developing and older slowly developing children. With dichaptic and tachistoscopic methods, hemispheric specialization characteristics of 15 slowly developing children (5-0 to 9-6 yr.) and 25 normally developing children (6-0 to 6-11 yr.) were assessed. Latencies and the number of correct responses were analyzed. Both right- and left-handed normally developing 6-yr.-olds showed considerable evidence of bilateralization of hemispheric functions for spatial and verbal information processing; slowly developing children exhibited unusual patterns of hemispheric specialization usually opposite those typically expected in children or adults. Response latency measures of performances of slowly developing children suggested a bilateralization of hemispheric function for processing of verbal and spatial information; number of correct responses indicated that lateralization of such functions was present.

The General Theory of Information (GTI) tells us that information is represented, processed and communicated using physical structures. The physical universe is made up of structures combining matter and energy. According to GTI, “Information is related to knowledge as energy is related to matter.” GTI also provides tools to deal with transformation of information and knowledge. We present here, the application of these tools for the design of digital autopoietic machines with higher efficiency, resiliency and scalability than the information processing systems based on the Turing machines. We discuss the utilization of these machines for building autopoietic and cognitive applications in a multi-cloud infrastructure.

Standardization Sample

The validity of the Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals-Third Edition (CELF-3, Semel, Wiig, & Secord, 1995) for the identification and description of language disorders following traumatic brain injury (TBI) was considered in 11 adolescents with TBI. In general, the CELF-3 identified only the individuals who had previously been diagnosed as language impaired, not the individuals with verbal information processing impairments but no diagnosis of language impairment. The test did not permit the identification of strengths and weaknesses. Intercorrelations among subtest standard scores were as high in the TBI group as in the standardization sample, which is consistent with the CELF-3 being a one-factor test. Test performance may have been influenced by the interaction of the subjects’ memory abilities and the subtests’ memory demands, although this relationship was not statistically significant in the present data.

Type Information

The present investigation examined and compared the pilot's decision-making capabilities when visual stimuli, similar in nature to those used in helmet-mounted displays, were displayed separately in each visual field. Fifteen student subjects experienced three different combinations of spatial and verbal hemiretinal stimuli. On one third of the trials, the left hemiretinae received verbal information, while the right hemiretinae simultaneously received spatial-type information. On another third of the trials, each set of hemiretinae received the opposite type of stimuli. On the remainder of the trials, both hermiretinae simultaneously received the same verbal and spatial-type inputs. Results indicate that the performance measure of latency was significantly decreased under the condition of verbal input to the right hemiretinae and spatial-type input to the left. No accuracy effects were seen as a result of the varying hemifield of stimulation. It was concluded that responses to the verbal right presentations were faster because transcallosal transmission was either unnecessary or inconsequential to the response.
