Omissions versus Commissions: Are Different Everyday Errors Meaningful for Understanding and Treating Functional Deficits?

Relative to our understanding of the memory and language deficits associated with dementia, little is known about problems with everyday action performance (i.e., meal preparation, grooming).  Recent research suggested that omission (failure to perform a task step) and commission (inaccurate performance of a task step) errors may reflect dissociable aspects of action impairment that are predicted by different neuropsychological processes.  This research will be presented, along with evidence that contradicts the omission-commission model.  Finally, new findings on everyday action interventions informed by the omission-commission model will be discussed.

Tania Giovannetti, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Temple University, with a joint appointment in Clinical Psychology and Brain and Cognitive Science Programs.

What do we know about fatigue in clinical populations?

Fatigue is among the most frequent symptoms observed among neurological and other medical populations.  It is also one of the most misunderstood and difficult to assess symptoms.  This talk will provide an overview of our current conceptualization of fatigue, beginning with its history and definition, its assessment and measurement, and the nature of fatigue in the general population, followed by a detailed discussion of fatigue in various clinical populations.  The discussion will continue with what is known about the treatment of fatigue and end with a new conceptual model of fatigue and how this model should drive future research and clinical approaches.

Learning a list: What goes awry in Alzheimer Disease

    Nancy S. Foldi, Ph.D, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Neuropsychology Laboratory of Aging and Dementia at Queens College and the Graduate Center of the City University New York.

    Dr. Foldi will be discussing aspects of how patients with Alzheimer disease learn, and how attentional abilities influence this ability. She will discuss previously published information about how healthy older adults and patients with geriatric depression learn a list of words (serial position effect) and will be presenting some of her newer findings of the neuropsychological profiles and the related brain regions that are involved in these processes in patients with Alzheimer disease.
