    Find the Differences
    Find the Differences
    Let’s see what cognitive processes and which
    brain areas are involved in this exercise:

    -You have to identify the objects that you see: this


    involves your occipital lobes (in red, below)
    - You have to analyze the spatial relationships
    between the objects that you see: this involves
    your occipital and parietal (in green) lobes
    - You have to remember what you see in one
    picture and compare it to what you see in the
    other picture, that is you have to use your short-
    term memory:
    - this involves your frontal (in blue) and parietal
    lobes
    - You have to mark down the locations where you
    see a difference: this involves mostly your frontal
    lobes (for the movement)
    Did you realize that so much was going on in your
    brain during that seemingly simple exercise?
    Find the Differences
    Answers:
    • - One of the characters on the white sign (top
    right)
    - Sign on the grey wall (bottom left)
    -Tail of the big fish on the left side of the building
    - Posting on the sign leaning on the building on
    the right side of the building
    - One of the small wooden characters on the left
    side of the building, under the big fish
    Brain Teaser 1. In which direction is the
    bus pictured below traveling?
    Brain Teaser 2. You think you know the colors?
    Brain Teaser 3.  Find the Homographs
    • Dr. Pascale Michelon created this one. In the columns below you have
    five pairs of words. Your goal is to find a third word that is connected or
    associated with both of these two words.
    • The first pair is PIANO and LOCK. The answer is KEY. The word key is
    connected with both the word piano and the word lock: there are KEYS on
    a piano and you use a KEY to lock doors….
    • Key is what is called a homograph: a word that has more than one
    meaning but is always spelled the same.
    • Ready to stimulate connections in your temporal lobe? Enjoy!

    1. LOCK – PIANO
    • 2. SHIP – CARD
    • 3. TREE – CAR
    • 4. SCHOOL – EYE
    • 5. PILLOW – COURT
    Brain Teaser 4. Have We Stressed You Out?

    • Here is a very quick test to determine your stress level now.


    Read the following description completely before looking at
    the picture.
    • The picture below was used in a case study on stress levels at
    St. Mary's Hospital. Look at both dolphins jumping out of the
    water. The dolphins are identical. A closely monitored,
    scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the
    dolphins are identical; a person under stress would find
    differences between the two dolphins. The more differences a
    person finds between the dolphins, the more stress that
    person is experiencing.
    • Look at the photograph, and if you find more than one or two
    differences, you may want to take a vacation, or at least get a
    massage.
    Is that a polar bear or a seal on the optical
    illusion below?

     
    Which table is bigger?
