Effect of affect on mental health

Abstract

Objective: Passive measures of memory are in increasing demand since active measures like EEG, fMRI etc. are not a viable way of cognitive measurement in environments where such devices are difficult to be accessed or for age groups and set of people to which such measures are difficult. Methods: Thus, in this paper, we propose a novel mathematical model for a passive measure of recall memory in children of age group 10 to 15 who are suffering from memory difficulties owing to affective effects. Findings and Applications: Though such passive measures are still abstract, such a methodology can be used 'on the go' and such can be supported with the help of clinical methods that support the improvement of cognitive abilities like memory.
