- CThe perception of movement
- DTactile perception of objects
2Visual agnosia is:
- AA basic deficit in processing all types of visual information
- BA memory disorder affecting knowledge about objects
- CA modality-specific deficit
- DA disorder differentially affecting the retrieval of the names of objects
3Which of the following is considered a region of higher-order association cortex?
- AStriate cortex
- BA1 auditory cortex
- CPrimary somatosensory cortex
- DNone of the above

6Which part of the brain contains neurons that are particularly sensitive to the direction of eye gaze?
- AFusiform gyrus
- BSuperior temporal sulcus
- CInferior temporal sulcus
- DMedial prefrontal cortex
7In studies using a variant of Posner's additional cuing paradigm to examine the effects of gaze shifts on visuospatial attention, it has been found that:
- AReaction times are faster when the gaze is directed toward the subsequent placement of the target (valid trials)
- BReaction times are slower when the gaze is directed away from the subsequent placement of the target (invalid trials)
- CThere is attentional enhancement in extrastriate cortex on valid trials
- DAll of the above
8How does face inversion affect the abilities of neurologically normal individuals and patients with acquired prosopagnosia?
- AIt makes tasks that use faces as stimuli a bit harder for both groups
- BIt makes face tasks more difficult for normal individuals, but has little effect or sometimes leads to facilitation for prosopagnosic patients
- CIt makes tasks that use faces as stimuli a bit harder for normal individuals and virtually impossible for patients with prosopagnosia
- DIt makes tasks that use faces as stimuli almost impossibly difficult for both groups
