Effects of Cognitive Impairment in Youth on the Volume of Short-Term Visual and Auditory Memory

The study was conducted on 30 participants aged 18–20 years, divided into two groups (15 people in the control group and 15 people in the experimental group). Using the D test. Emena (2009) was diagnosed with the structures of the cerebral cortex (temporal, frontal lobes, limbic system, and subcortical ganglia) regulating cognitive functions (CFs). Participants with normal CFs were included in the control group and participants with partial cognitive impairment in the experimental group. The volume of short-term visual and auditory memory was measured by the traditional method in both groups. Based on the obtained data, a table was compiled and statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U criterion (Wilcoxon).
