Hows this sound to you, Human memory at work.

Post Reply New Topic

What do you think of this simple example of the human brain working idea:-

Hard drive can work without Ram ( Short Term Memory ) runs slower Introvert.

Hard drive SATA = long term memory. ( Unconscious. ).
Needle passing over the hard drive:- is Working Memory. ( Works in Unconscious. ).
Buffer = pre-catches information. ( Unconscious maybe or semi or day dreaming, can see it ).

RAM ( short term memory ) Remove this item from the computer.

Solid State Hard drive Extrovert ( Suffers from write/delete cycles when full ) Faster. Extrovert Can Start losing memory fast, when full. When it reaches its write/delete cycles limit.

Then they would be other systems need mapping maybe.

A real computer should work like this?

Hard Drive SATA. ( This Loads onto the Solid State )
Solid State Hard Drive. ( This offloads to the, SATA )

Says an introvert was smart enough to do:-

Hard Drive SATA & RAM.

What you think? Shyness Defence Mechanism from overload?

I think this is common knowledge but I'll say it: The way introverts and extroverts process or acquire information is the difference. The distinction is the rewarding mechanism for the two groups.

The two can possess High Cognitive ability aka IQ. One gets it ( the info.) from solitaire activities, and the other via a social means. But I don't believe this as, either or, but is spectral. Bill Gate's SAT and Bill Clinton's scores, correlate with a 160 plus IQ -- (near SAT ceiling). The latter is an extrovert.

I'd posit that social anxiety stems from some inability from the introvert's corner. It'd have to. It could be problems with cognition, eg "slow" and/or living in a man cave. We know all introverts are not shy. The anxiety stems from something and not solely from a drain on cognitive resources.

So to the analogy: poor RAM, hardrive or running a 386 CPU in a modern scenario.

Maybe you should look into stress/Fear > before it becomes anxiety. Introverts are more likely to get stressed. I can easily make an extrovert the same way by forcing them the other way.

TechnoDog - That is some rather profound stuff.

OK

But: if introverts and extroverts have the same IQ subtest scores on cognitive testing, comparing an apple to an apple; then how does this computer analogy work TD?

The only difference I see is in how it operates. The emotive force behind the two cognitions is different, with all the components of your computer analogy being the same, ( the firmware) but the way the hard drive is loaded up and the information loaded into it, is different. The software is different altogether but not the firmware.

( Comparing IQ to Real Intelligence )

An IQ test does not measure intelligence. Even the person who invented it told people not to use it for testing OR any test does not measure real.

If someone is a master painter natural & someone sucks at painting, does that mean they have a disability or just need to practice with support or encouragement.

You sit the same quiz you get a low score. Practice & sit again you get a higher score. An IQ test fact people stick one in front of a dog is laughable. It does not measure intelligence. It's just remembering answers. None of these tests are accurate. You can change them depending on your mood, what you eat, how much sleep, enviroment, yarda, yarda.

Ah, but it does approximate the strength of your cognition in relation to your peers.

The metrics that are used tap into how much you know-- general knowledge, working memory, etc-- a host of different types of cognition, but not all.

They take a sample out of many test takers and create a scale or bell curve and you have percentages. In my above example of Gates and Clinton on their SAT scores, the high numbers show an above 1 in 30 thousand rarity in the population for this score. You give such ones a proctored IQ test and you'll find a 160 IQ # in place of high 1500's raw SAT scoring-- they correlate in terms of percentages.

You can take a standarized proctored test at different times and you'll find an average or a range for yourself. There is a pattern to it.

And you'll find that intellectually gifted people do not score low or the disabled scoring high on such a standardized test.
