Psychology of Cognition and Memory Short Answer Questions

/in /by

This is a short answer assignment for a Psychology of Cognition and Memory Exam. The subjects are on Memory and Language. These answers will need to be roughly 4-7 sentences long. Some answers will require citation. No reference page is necessary. Please answer all 12 Questions.

*The first attachment is the Assignment.

*The additional attachments are labeled Textbook and Lecture.  This is where you will find most of the answers to the questions. Keep in mind that some of the answers will require examples to test the understanding of the information. When citing the textbook there are multiple Author’s to the chapters but the Text book itself is Noba. The Lectures are Pdf’s of slides that were used. If you decide to use information within the slides, cite it as “Blumenthal”

*I also attached 4 articles the professor provided with additional information on the subjects to be used. These provide a lot of insight on the subjects and can help with answering some of these questions.

Please note that there is a lot of neuroscience that is involved with this subject. Some of the answers will require to include biological information, specifically parts of the brain used during specific functions. It is extremely important to include this where necessary.

You may also obtain answers to these questions from other sources but be sure to cite it in the answers. I would like for the majority of the answers to come from the attachments I provided as this is what the professor will be expecting.

                        Assignment

Individually create a personal three-course allergen table dhote menu that includes:
Step 1:

1.    The menu must have a 2 choices for appetizers, 3 choices for main and 2 choices for dessert.  Each menu item should display a completed balanced dish as discussed in class, with varying textures and flavours.
2.    Each course must be paired with a beverage (wine, beer, or tea) in the correct progression according to the weights and styles of the beverage. The menu should indicate the producer, wine varietal if applicable and vintage year.
3.    The style of menu should be written, and designed, in a way that best suits that type of restaurant establishment. Remember this is a selling tool for the restaurant. Design and descriptors of the dishes are important.
4.    Professional presentation of the menu is as important as your menu balance (colours, textures, flavours and techniques). Use of culinary terminology, cooking techniques, and descriptive wording is expected.
5.    This menu needs to accommodate a person with a specific allergy.  You need to provide two items in two different courses, where you need to substitute an element of the dish that has the specific allergen for another element that does not.  This substitution should not alter the original dish but provide the necessary accommodation for the guest to have the same eating experience as everyone else.

6.    The allergens may be any of the following:

a.    Wheat
b.    Nuts
c.    Fish
d.    Seafood
e.    Dairy
f.    Eggs
g.    Soy

Include an essay style write up, in 800 1200 words explaining:
1.    What inspired this menu? Explain the dishes and what prompted you to create this menu. Why have you chosen this style of cuisine? Perhaps your family heritage is your inspiration, or somewhere you have traveled.
2.    Describe the rational for pairing your beverage to each course.  Include how you selected wine based on progression of menu. Identify weight of wine to weight of food comparison, acidity, sweetness and tannin interaction if valid. List affinities between wine and food. You need to support your rational with providing a principle pairing rule.
3.    Describe the surprising facts you found when researching the allergen and list them.
4.    Identify two items in two different courses, where you need to substitute an element of the dish that has the same specific allergen for another element that does not.
5.    What challenges may arise when creating a menu for this specific type of allergen?
6.    Where did you find this allergen information? Were any other restaurants or chefs inspirational to you?
Remember

–    Importantly understand the allergen and the menu style you are creating.
–    Get creative and display your culinary style and cuisine inspirations.
–    Remember that the menu is a marketing and communication tool for the front of house and reflects the reputation and standards of a restaurant.
–    Check for spelling and grammar!!
–    Be sure the menu and essay are professionally written and check the marking rubric on Blackboard for the grading of your final menu and essay submission.
–    Late Submission is 10% a day after scheduled deadline
–    Cite any and all references professionally.

(New Question)
This is a question asked after the following was outstandingly correct:
Consider how these works — analects and poems — contributed to the formation of the collective Chinese identity.  You cite many good lessons.  How might Chinese culture today reflect these values?

                                         
(Original question)Confucius, Laozi, Classic of Poetry
It is assumed that Eastern works have influenced the West only very little.  I would beg to differ.  Benjamin Franklin, for example, could easily be seen as an American Confucius as he wrote his own “analects” in Poor Richard’s Almanac.  We might call his brand of knowledge as well as the brand of knowledge we get from Eastern works, secular intellectualism as the goal is not to attain salvation but enlightenment instead. Of interest to us is the world economy in Eastern poetry.  In other words, the Eastern poets are able to say so much by writing so little as evidenced in the classic anecdote that the perfect poem is a blank sheet of paper: nothingness, blankness, infinite possibilities for interpretation. Choose a couple of poems and some of Confucius’s analects or sayings and discuss between you what they might mean.  Keep in mind that more is said by saying little.  Each poem or analect is only the tip of the iceberg.  The vast meaning of the poem, then, is below the surface of the sea waiting to be discovered.

Answer:
Confuciuss analects provide an interesting view on several aspects of life including the relationship between parents and children, being humane, culture, and politics. For instance, Confucius affirms that the need to behave gently and humanly when one is dealing with fellow human beings (Confucious and Huang 45). Being virtuous in thoughts and actions is highlighted as a critical element of human character. He also asserts the importance of culture and rituals in terms of laying down the right procedures and rules that enhance peaceful and orderly coexistence among members of a community.

Thoughts in the silent night is a famous Chinese poem that was written by Libai of the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes the loneliness, solitude, and wistfulness that people sometimes face in their lives. Largely, the poem provides a comprehensive description of the in-depth feeling of nostalgia that crops up in the mind of people during their low moments (Wang 1). The other poem written by the Tang dynasty poet Lisham is the Toiling of a farmer. This poem describes the challenges that farmers face in the pursuit of their peasantry livelihood. In a broader sense, the poem describes the livelihoods of the peasants and low-income earners in Chinese society. The poem intended to highlight the challenges that farmers face even though they play an important role in producing food for the society. Finally, the seven steps verse, a poem written by an ancient poet known as Caozhi described the political oppression and mistrust that existed in the Eastern world during the ancient days (Wang 1). It describes an oppressive emperor who forced his younger brother to come up with a poem or be executed.
