“…The box plots of the performance scores on WCSPM, WCSPH, DA and DR are shown for comparison. Each box plot represents the median and the 25th and 75th percentiles with whiskers extending to the 10th and 90th percentiles (Cleveland, 1985;Gouvier et al, 1992). Using 2 SDs as the criterion for impairment, cases 1, 2, 3 and 4 were impaired on OA.…”

Object alternation (OA) is a well-established measure of perseveration and orbitofrontal function in non-human primates. Although several studies have used OA to examine orbitofrontal system dysfunction in humans with neurological and psychiatric disease, this task itself has not been validated as a bona fide measure of frontal dysfunction in humans. To address this issue, six patients with bilateral frontal lobe lesions documented by computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 15 healthy controls were given OA, as well as other measures of frontal system dysfunction, delayed alternation (DA), delayed response (DR), and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST). The CT and MRI scans were interpreted blindly. The patients with bilateral frontal lesions were significantly impaired on OA, DA, DR and the WCST. Analyses of the CT/MRI lesions suggest that the neuroanatomical regions involved in the deficits on OA include Brodmann areas 10, 24, 32 and 47, as well as possibly 11, and that OA is a sensitive measure of ventrolateral-orbitofrontal and medial frontal dysfunction in humans. Our findings lend further support for the use of experimental paradigms adopted from animal models to study the functional neuroanatomy and neuropsychological mechanisms underlying cognitive functions in humans with neurological and psychiatric disease.

we have shared a wealth of information (imparting of information), and we have modeled our classroom behaviw after others who have had success with new techniques (imitative behavior). These benefits help us develop professionally and feel less isolated in our lives as teachers.T h e interpersonal relationships also inspire impromptu and planned teaching consultations outside of our regular meetings. Several of us have served as classroom consultants by going into another's class and conducting a student discussion-based evaluation similar t o the model developed by Diamond (1988). In this evaluation, which is conducted 4 or 5 weeks into the semester, the consultant puts students into small groups. Each group is asked t o discuss positive and negative features of the course and make suggestions for improvement. Group members then share their idea5T h e I'ubficarion Manual o j t k American Psychological As-
