Definition: The prefrontal cortex is a part of the brain which is called the frontal lobe, specifically it the section (which is located at the top of the brain), that is responsible for helping us with making conscious: judgment decisions, solve problems, paying attention to detail, socializing, and intellect.
Comment: I can definitely see the potential connection between the prefrontal cortex and the “social cognition” competency. Finding solutions in our social world requires high road thinking, solving these issues requires problem solving which is a conscious effort. Also, the competency “influence” is potentially relevant. I find it difficult to imagine the low road being used for social interactions that would require self-control if one may have an impulse to react a certain way, it is my belief that using self-control would require being able to use …show more content…
This area of the brain helps us learn as well.
Comment: Indeed, the amygdala could possibly have potential relevance to synchrony since the amygdala can help us sense sudden joy in someone’s expression through the use of mirror neurons. In addition, I can see a connection with attunement as well since can in a sense, develop our own mental simulation of what someone is thinking through the amygdala. Definition: The brain stem is the portion of the brain that controls activity in the body that acts automatically, such as breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, digestion, perspiration, temperature, sleep, balance and heart rate.
Comment: The fact that self-presentation requires the ability to give effective presentations illustrates to me that the brain stem has a potential influence on making a good impression. For instance, breathing effectively before may reduce perspiration due to nervousness and aid in giving a better
