that is related to the scientific study of mental function and mind , including learning, perception, attention, reasoning, learning, language, decision making and conceptual development.

system is really important because it’s in charge of sending messages to the spinal cord and brain to and from all parts of the body. Main organs of the nervous system are Nervous Tissue, Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves, Sense Organs, and the Cerebrospinal Fluid. The nervous tissue is the main tissue of the central and peripheral nervous system. This tissue conducts nerve impulses and is composed of neurons. The brain sends messages to the spinal cord the peripheral nerves all over the body that…

accumulates in the brain, enlarging the head and causing brain damage (MedicineNet, 2016). Hydrocephalus can be a result of the ventricles producing too much cerebrospinal fluid. There can also be an obstruction which reduces the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, as well as inadequate absorption of the cerebrospinal fluid into the bloodstream (Boston Children 's Hospital, 2016). Diagnosis of hydrocephalus is usually based on prevalence of signs and symptoms, general physical examinations, or brain…

This article incorporated every counterargument that could be made against emotional intelligence. Matthews, Zeidner, and Roberts started with a biological approach as they target specific brain systems and how “EI” is incorporated with these parts. These psychologists outline three different constraints on biological models and how they work. Moving on to the next section of their argument, they talk about the cognitive bases and how goes…

Mapping the Brain, written by Sharon Begley, focuses on how the brain has specific tasks for each of the divided sections. In the article, Begley (1992) uses an analogy to explain how different regions of the brain have distinct roles and are in control of different tasks. Specifically, the brain is compared to a map. Begley (1992) declares, “[The maps] will show . . . where in the brain cognition, feelings, language and everything else that makes us human comes from” (p. 66). This means that…

discussed two areas of the brain; the frontal cortex and the midbrain. I learned that in non-addicted brains the frontal or prefrontal cortex is the part of the brain that affects decision making. Some of the examples given in the documentary were that the frontal cortex helps humans to decide who we love, who we want to be friends with, and that the frontal cortex directs our moral compass. Essentially the job of the frontal cortex is decision making. In a non-addicted brain, the midbrain or…

now we can not even do it. We are to attach to the technology that it is draining our brains . We now see students researching for articles, but instead of reading they just skim read and use the ideas from the internet for their paper. With technology we see students not reading the whole paper like before without technology we would read the whole paper. Carr explains this when he says that our brain is in between observation and attentiveness on how we view the information on the…
