2010 Psychology Exam 1 Discussion

I think the stage 1 was when she got the headaches and she was resisting these in stage 2, which was when she got the headache. They could potentially mark both correct though.

if she wasnt in exhaustion then when she came back to work after a few days she would have been able to get up and go to work...but i think they'll accept both

I was doing really well on both multiple choice, but was too relaxed with my time. Ended up having 5 mins left to answer the entire last 2 pages.

Didn't properly answer the 4 mark hot coffee question and the one about the ASC sick guy.

Also, for the experimenter having to ask someone to experiment on the young boy, I forgot the organization and went with "the child's parent or guardian"

Yeah 3/4 NREM, without a doubt. Although I think they wanted you to pick one?

[psych93]

That would be crap ! My textbook says its most likely in Stages 3/4 it doesn't whether stage 3 or stage 4 is more likely

look at the 2002 exam. one of the fill in the blanks was this exact same question. that year they accepted stage 4, or stage 3 or NREM. Not sure about 3/4 though.  So I just went with 4. Check it out. Might have been 2003 or 2004...

Last year the question was raised in multiple choice. They didn't want a specific answer though, 'most like to occur in...'
I'll check out the old exam papers.

Oh here it is. 2009 Multiple Choice question 43
Sleep  talking occurs in
A. REM sleep only
B. Stage 1 sleep only
C. Stages 3 and 4 sleep only (this refers to sleep walking)
D. Both REM and NREM sleep

Examiner's commends: 43 students chop option C, this suggests that students are confusing sleep talking, which may occur in any stage of sleep, with sleep walking, which occurs only in stages 3 and 4 of NREM sleep.

[Hongld]

In Stage 3 sleep, which of the following sleep events is least likely to occur?
A. nightmares <--- answer
B. night terrors
C. sleep talking
D. sleep walking

So it didn't specify which stage sleep talk occurs in. Is there anymore sleep talk questions we can refer to and check?

[Hongld]

Wait oops what am I doing, I didn't check the answer u_u
