- Dthe ability to acquire and store information for a long time
- Ethe ability to store work related information
4Which of the following statements is correct?
- AAbsence seizures originate in the frontal lobe (fronto-orbital part)
- BVisual symptoms at the onset of a seizure indicate temporal lobe seizure origin
- CFear may be the clinical manifestation of an epileptic aura
- DSimple partial seizures are characterized by loss of conciousness
- EComplex partial seizures always indicate frontal lobe epilepsy
5Bipolar disorder
- A1. is characterized by predominant delusions of persecution.
- Bis a psychiatric disorder with low heritability.
- Cis one of the most frequent psychiatric disorders
- Dcan be treated with antipsychotics.
- E. is five times more frequent in women than in men.
6The lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorders is about:
- A20%
- B5%
- C70%
- D50%
- E1%
7One of the following statements is wrong – Which one? Alexia without agraphia is a disconnection syndrome typically with the following characteristics
- Aa lesion in the splenium
- Ba left hemispheric lesion
- Ca visual field defect
- Dpatients can´t read but write
- Elanguage difficulties
8The frontal lobe
- ASpans 1/8 of the total cortex in humans
- BIs separated to the temporal lobe by the postcentral sulcus
- CIs subdivided into primary motor cortex, the premotor cortex and the prefrontal cortex
- DIs separated to the parietal lobe by the precentral sulcus
- EGreatly enlarged in the course of evolution in parallel to the development of motor abilities
9Which of the following statements is correct?
- AIdiopathic epilepsies commonly have a single-gene inheritance
- BSymptomatic epilepsies never have a genetic background.
- CRolando-epilepsy of childhood is a symptomatic epilepsy syndrome.
- DFrontal lobe epilepsies may be purely genetic
- EThe correct diagnosis of epilepsy is made from the EEG.
10One of the following statements is wrong – Which one? “Disconnection syndromes”
- Amay refer to interruption of intrahemispheric as well as interhemispheric fiber tracts
- Bare functional deficits caused by focal lesions of fiber tracts that connect cortical brain areas
- Cmay result from transection of the corpus callosum (so-called “split-brain” operations)
- Dare characterized by anatomical lesion sites (and therefore disconnection symptoms might refer to different cognitive or neuronal systems)
- Emeans that two cortical areas are linked together irregularly (= dysconnection) by aberrant fiber tracts
11The model of cognitive control proposed by Miller and Cohen suggests...
- Athe existence of a “supervisory attentional system (SAS)”.
- Bthat emotion-related somatosensory patterns facilitate decision-making (“somatic marker hypothesis”).
- Cthat inhibitory control may be the underlying mechanisms of behavioural control.
- Dthe existence of a prefrontal “executive committee” for perception, working memory, attention, long-term memory, motor control and thinking.
- Ethat the prefrontal cortex exerts top-down-control by providing an excitatory signal that biases processing in other brain systems towards task-relevant information, memory or motor output (“biased competition model”).
12Which of the following statements is correct?
- AMossy fibers are axons of CA3 primary cells.
- BAberrant mossy fiber sprouting is one hypothesis for epileptogenesis in limbic epilepsies.

- DSeizure-like events in in vitro models can be induced by lowering of sodium in the artificial cerebrospinal fluid.
- EDuring seizure-like events in vitro light transmission of the tissue is decreased

- Care more effective than serotonine-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors.
- Dshould not be used in patients with suicidal ideation
- Eare most effective in bipolar depression
