A study provides evidence that the corticostriatal system of the brain is essential for this learning process.doi:10.1038/nature10951BlakeDavid T.NatureBlake D. How brains learn to control machines. Nature. 2012;483:284–5.
The key, says Thaler, is to responsibly use “nudges”—subtle interventions that guide choices without restricting them. Over the years, insights from behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience have shown that strategically designed nudges can effectively influence behavior and drive resu...
As it turns out, a neuroscience researcher endorses this practice of scheduling daily activities to align with the fluctuations in the state of your brain. What is the one thing that makes successful people more productive and less stressed at work? They “manage their brain better,” according...
” says Rockefeller’s Robert B. Darnell, whose team just published a study inNature Neurosciencedescribing a new platform capable of identifying the specific regulatory mechanisms that drive dendritic translation. The team leveraged a method, dubbed TurboID, to discover an entire suite...
sort of attention deficit, almost at a clinical level for many people, including adults. I think that's largely true. And what it means, however, is that we all are responsible for learning how to create depth of focus. There are some important neuroscience principles to get depth of ...
After my court case I was drawn to study psychology – and I’ve become inspired and fascinated by neuroscience! After many years of learning about how to work with my spirit and then teaching others this self-healing technique, I’ve learned some different perspectives about the concept of ...
But if you have a growth mindset, and think your abilities can improve, a challenge will become an opportunity to learn and grow. Neuroscience( 神经学) supports the later. The connections in your brain do get stronger and grow with study and practice.___38 Practicing failure is a must. ...
or we go with our gut. With the advent of neuroscience tools, how our mind works contradicts previous theories. It is a blend of both feeling and reason. Our intuition sometimes leads us astray, while rationality subjects us to d...
Neuroscience research in past decades has shown that emotions do not have ‘fingerprints’ in the brain. Different networks in the brain can create the same emotion. And yes, emotions are created by our brain. It is the way our brain gives meaning to bodily sensations based on past experienc...
In a previous blog post titled “How emotions are made”, I have outlined how neuroscience research in the past decades has shown that our brain gives meaning to our experiences/sensations through concepts such as emotions. So, emotions are created in the brain, rather than triggered by fixed...
