INTERMEDIATE LEVEL FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS PART ONE

 

INTRODUCTION

This Functional Analysis is designed specifically for Intermediate level NH students and not for the general public, therefore it assesses some skills that beginners may not yet have, and some skills that they may not yet be aware of. If you are NOT an intermediate NH student this FA will be of limited use to you and you may not understand some of the questions. For a more 'universal' Functional Analysis, see NHA Tutorial 3.

 

THIS FA IS HERE THANKS TO THE EFFORTS OF

AR, LeScal, MigZ, Sakiro, Prof CBC, Arcane Jill, and all students who kept asking where it was.

 

Index model:

(a)for each network we are testing the following functions:

1 senses/tools for comprehending

2 simple behaviors, system stability & response dynamics

3 memory & association

4 complex behaviors/ abilities & processing

5 tools for awareness, feedback, monitoring

6 integration into whole system

Each section also provides:

(b) comparative testing for that network's key skills.

(c) network connectivity function testing

 

HOW TO DO THIS FA

 

KEY:

6 Always true of me

5 Very frequently true of me

4 True of me about half the time

3 Not very often true of me

2 Very rarely true of me

1 Never true of me

 

Don't try to fill in the answer gaps in this document; that's impossible. Instead, try to realize the truth...that you gotta cut & paste the FA to turn it into a document on your own machine.

You may wish to keep the key above in view as you do the FA, to avoid scrolling about.

There are six sections; one for each network. Parts (a) and (b) of each section are a collection of statements about yourself and your everyday experience. Using the 1-6 key above, please number them to rate how frequently or infrequently each is true of you. For an accurate analysis, please answer according to what really reflects your experience rather than what you think your experience should be. Please treat each statement separately from every other statement.

On your copy, type your chosen answer number in the space provided. If you do not understand a statement, or you're not sure it is true of you, or if your answer is 'don't know', type ? in the space provided. You will be told how to calculate your score at the end of each part and each section.

Part (c) of each section tests each networks' connectivity by posing problems that require multi-network communication and cooperative function. You can only do these parts once because you need to view the answers to calculate your score. In these parts you may NOT use tools (eg, calculator, dictionary, reference books) -we are testing the quality of our mind functions; not how well our tech works. You CAN write down your workings when doing maths problems, or sketch spatial puzzles to solve them, since humans have been doing this since the dawn of time : )

You should be able to use the word processing app you do this FA on to increase the size of pictures or to zoom in closer to the pictures for picture-based questions, so don't strain your eyes -hit the zoom button.

You should do this FA in your NORMAL EVERYDAY STATE for accurate results. Don't deliberately stop or start taking anything or suddenly change your diet just before you start. Don't go near this FA if you're feeling ill, or going through a big bummer, as it will not reflect your normal state. There is no time limit, no grades, no personal details required, and no data collecting -you don't send the FA to us, and nobody sees your results but you.

(a) Information

In a survey of 1000 people in 2006 in the United Republic of Meritica:

80% said that security forces were adequate

10% said that security forces were not adequate

10% said they didn't know 

 

Official Crime figures for the URM:

2000: 110 murders, 200 robberies, 270 violent crimes

2002: 90 murders, 170 robberies, 150 violent crimes

2004: 87 murders, 102 robberies, 138 violent crimes

2006: 81 murders, 98 robberies, 104 violent crimes”

 

Statements:

A 80% of Meriticans believe that security forces are adequate

B In 2006, 10% of Meriticans believed that security forces were not adequate

C Between 2000 and 2006, the crime rate in the URM fell gradually

F There were more robberies than murders in Meritica in 2002

G There were fewer violent crimes in the URM in 2006 than in 2004

H In 2006, 10% of Meriticans said security forces were not adequate


 

(b) Information:

There are seven species of wild Zargon living on the planet Petros. The Red Zargon and the Blue Zargon are native species. Green Zargon were introduced by interstellar traders and, since the seventeenth century, have been joined by three other non-native species: Orange, Purple and Yellow Zargon the ancestors of which either escaped from or were dumped by traders. In addition, a herd of Turquoise Zargon was established in the north in 1952.

Most of the Red Zargon on Petros are found in the north, but there are significant wild populations in the south west and north west and the north midlands. Red Zargon can interbreed with the introduced Orange Zargon and in some areas, hybrids are common.
 

Statements: 

A All of the Red Zargon on Petros are found in the north

B Red Zargon can interbreed with Green Zargon

C The Green Zargon is not native to Petros

D There are no Turquoise Zargon in the south
