EMDRIA CE Credit Examination

1. All of the following functions are considered to be localized in the left cerebral
hemisphere except:

[ ] a. A. Linguistic.

[ ] b. B. Integrated map of the body.

[ ] c. C. Logical.

2. All of the following functions are considered to be localized in the right cerebral
hemisphere except:

[ ] a. A. Verbal.

[ ] b. B. Self soothing.

[ ] c. C. Self concept.

3. The Ventral vagus nerve is a component of the parasympathetic system that:

[ ] a. A. Mediates the freeze response.

[ ] b. B. Increases sympathetic arousal.

[ ] c. C. Reduces sympathetic arousal.

4. The Dorsal vagus nerve is a component of the parasympathetic system that:

[ ] a. A. Mediates the freeze response.

[ ] b. B. Increases sympathetic arousal.

[ ] c. C. Reduces sympathetic arousal.

5. All of the following are true of the Pons except:

[ ] a. A. Connects the brainstem and limbic structures.

[ ] b. B. Bridges the brainstem and midbrain.

[ ] c. C. Pontine nuclei relay neocortical information to the cerebellum.

6. The hippocampus does all of the following except:

[ ] a. A. Mediates retrieval of episodic memory.

[ ] b. B. Brings emotion to memory.

[ ] c. C. Mediates memory of events in time and space.

7. The name hippocampus means:

[ ] a. A. Butterfly.

[ ] b. B. Water space.

[ ] c. C. Sea horse.

8. The name amygdala means:

[ ] a. A. Clam.

[ ] b. B. Peanut.

[ ] c. C. Almond.

9. In the amygdala:

[ ] a. A. Conscious executive decisions between alternatives are made.

[ ] b. B. Aspects of memory are brought together and endowed with emotion.

[ ] c. C. Sensory information is integrated.

10. The anterior cingulate gyrus does all of the following except:

[ ] a. A. Selects a course of action.

[ ] b. B. Mediates shifting of attention.

[ ] c. C. Connects affect and cognition.

11. PTSD is associated with:

[ ] a. A. Decreased plasma norepinephrine.

[ ] b. B. Increased plasma norepinephrine.

[ ] c. C. Increased plasma cortisol.

12. PTSD is associated with:

[ ] a. A. Decreased plasma norepinephrine

[ ] b. B. Decreased plasma cortisol.

[ ] c. C. Decreased plasma oxcytocin.

13. SPECT imaging indicates EMDR treatment leads to all of the following except:

[ ] a. A. Increased activation of anterior cingulate gyrus.

[ ] b. B. Frontal lobe activation.

[ ] c. C. Increased activation of the aymgdala.

14. Neural oscillation refers to:

[ ] a. A. Physical movement in neurons during learning.

[ ] b. B. Variations in voltage that can be synchronized across brain regions.

[ ] c. C. Changes in levels of neurotransmitters due to circadian rhythms.

15. Stickgold (2002) believes that EMDR may work via:

[ ] a. A. Brief cholinergic surges turn on and run the brain’s REM system in reverse.

[ ] b. B. The orienting response.

[ ] c. C. Electrical spikes that alter neuronal connections.

16. Thalamocortical Temporal Binding is:

[ ] a. A. Is a sign of a possible seizure disorder.

[ ] b. B. Is disrupted by 40 Hz Oscillations.

[ ] c. C. Is enhanced by 40 Hz Oscillations.

17. Bilateral stimulation in EMDR may allow:

[ ] a. A. Decreased stimulation of the cerebellum.

[ ] b. B. The cerebellum to transmit information to the limbic structures.

[ ] c. C. Decreased Thalamocortical Temporal Binding.

18. Thalamocortical Temporal Binding tends to lead to:

[ ] a. A. Somatosensory integration.

[ ] b. B. Somatosensory fragmentation.

[ ] c. C. Distorted self-blame.

19. The number of nerve cells in the cerebellum:

[ ] a. A. Is greater than the number in the cerebral cortex.

[ ] b. B. Is less than the number in the cerebral cortex.

[ ] c. C. Is about the same as the number in the cerebral cortex.

20. While EMDR may stimulate the REM system it differs because it allows:

[ ] a. A. For loss of frontal control.

[ ] b. B. For intermittent frontal control.

[ ] c. C. Maintaining frontal control.
