![]() However, performance on the 4 disks Tower of Hanoi task was slightly better than in the 3 disks version in schizophrenic patients suggesting the ability to acquire a procedure and greater preservation of basal ganglia function. In comparison to the control group, schizophrenic patients performed significantly worse. Goldberg et al., 1990 used 3 and 4 disks versions of the Tower of Hanoi to assess learning and problem-solving capabilities in schizophrenic patients. A significant performance difference was found between the two groups, with the high emotional intelligence group making lesser errors and requiring lesser time for the task. The study employed a four disks version of the task without the constraint “no larger disk should be placed on a smaller disk.” The subjects were also not given any time constraints. ![]() In comparison to healthy controls, a significant difference in performance was observed.Īrefnasab et al., 2012 compared the problem-solving capabilities of individuals with high emotional intelligence with those having low emotional intelligence. The executive function assessment was performed using 3 and 4 disks Tower of Hanoi. Yang et al., 2017 assessed the often-neglected neurocognitive functioning in cancer patients with PTSD. The patients showed extreme difficulty in completing the task and showed significantly poorer performance as the disk numbers were increased. The task was carried out using a varying number of disks (2 to 5 disks). 24 patients with mild Alzheimer’s were assessed for their planning capabilities. Balances, Scales and Weighing Equipmentīalachandar et al., 2015 evaluated the age-related cognitive decline using the Tower of Hanoi task.
