In essence, memories are vulnerable bits of information stored in the brain that can be changed over time. While we assume that our memories are accurate, this is not necessarily the case. Alternate Realities One theory for the basis for the Mandela effect originates from quantum physics and ...
Psychophysics can be contrasted with Gestalt psychology, which describes the ways in which perception depends not so much on individual bits of information but on the "whole picture" that the brain interprets. For instance, a trio of dots placed close together is generally interpreted as a ...
brainwave activity, the EEG. The brain effectively gets to watch its own dance of self-regulation in real time. This suffices to allow the brain to improve its self-regulatory competence. This is a gradual learning process. We refer to this kind of neurofeedback process as Endogenous ...
Likewise, students who are frontloaders sometimes consider themselves as 'better than' rearloaders because they believe they have built more bits of brain (this is not necessarily true) whilst rearloaders consider themselves more fortunate because at least they have developed in the right order witho...
