Phenotypic and Genetic Analyses of the Wisconsin Card Sort

Regulatory match effects on a modified Wisconsin Card Sort Task.

The Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST; Heaton, 1980) is commonly used to assess concept formation and set shifting. Cognitive research suggests that set shifting performance is enhanced by a match between a person's regulatory focus (promotion focus: attempting to earn an entry into a cash drawing; prevention focus: attempting to avoid losing an entry into the drawing) and the task reward struc...

Sequential Learning Models for the Wisconsin Card Sort Task : Assessing Processes in 5 Substance Dependent Individuals

1 The Wisconsin Card Sort Task (WCST) is a commonly used neuropsychological test of 2 executive or frontal lobe functioning. Traditional behavioral measures from the task 3 (e.g., perseverative errors) distinguish healthy controls from clinical populations, but such 4 measures can be difficult to interpret. In an attempt to supplement traditional measures, 5 we developed and tested a family of ...

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
