- Primate brains follow predictable developmental pattern
This Monash University research, originally published in the Journal of Neuroscience by Tristan Chaplin et al., is said to be a breakthrough in the understanding of the evolution of primate brains across all sizes of primate species. In an anatomical context, the research discusses how the disproportionate enlargement of the areas of the human brain necessary for advanced levels of the cognition can be identified as consistent across all sizes of primate species. The researchers found through the use of computer modelling and MRI imaging that those two brain regions – “the lateral Continue reading...

It is the biochemical basis of heredity and generally, protein coding amino acids is very similar in all eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The principle Continue reading...

Video games making us violent; a myth blow out of proportion

The violence in our world has been on a constant rise since as far as we can recall, and the problem is being taken very seriously. We do not know if it is the aggressive weapons which, in the wrong hands, could destroy irreplaceable lives in mere seconds or if it is the violent content that we have been witnessing on our television screens.
Many people also attribute this characteristic to the frenzied lives and the frustrations that take root from it and the problems that are far outside our control. There is yet another issue that comes up Continue reading...

Color Signals in Human

For more than 20 years there has been confusion and contradiction about whether and how the visual system can examine the motion of pure color patterns that contain no luminance variety. Three new papers have reported proof that, given their force, color patterns match luminance designs in the motion related sensations and utilitarian attractive resonance imaging signals. They evoke in people, and in the neural signs they inspire in the motion region of cortex of acting monkeys. This key aspect of the most seasoned and the most modern of cognitive neuroscience strategies decisively reject the proposal that color signs Continue reading...

Introduction

Racism denotes discrimination and prejudice that are anchored on social apprehensions of biological dissimilarity between people (Newman 1). Racism is orchestrated in the form of social actions or practices or political systems that perceive certain races to be inferior or superior on the account of qualities, abilities, and presumed shared inheritable straits (Newman 1). In addition, racism may prompt the treatment of others differently from the rest. Racism in the world soccer/football has raised eyebrows. Despite FIFA, the world’s soccer governing body’s policies and penalties, racism on the global stage in soccer has been on the rise. Continue reading...

PSYCHOLOGY AS A DISCIPLINE

Psychologists have come up with different theories working towards the human brain and their behavior in relation to various things including their everyday living in relation to the environment. Different ideas/efforts worked at different times in different situations as opposed to the way they were set up. Among a number of theorists and psychologists, Sigmund Freud worked on a theory basing his research on psychoanalytic perspectives, unconscious motives, wishes and urge, the five stages psychosocial development childhood experiences and dream analysis. Another was Ivan Pavlov working on the idea of classical conditioning, associative learning and stimulus – stimulus. He also Continue reading...

Abstract

The present article discusses the anatomical and functional aspects of human memory. Memory is an integral part of our cognitive processes and gives the meaning to life. The importance of memory can be ascertained by studying the conditions associated with memory loss. Scientists have established the ‘what,’ ‘where’ and ‘how’ of the memory by using animal models or the modern computerized techniques like CT, MRI and PET. The medial temporal lobes of the hippocampal region are the primary sites of memory and learning. However, the final storage site of memory is presumed to be neo-cortex. Depending on the anatomical Continue reading...

In everyday life, in trains, buses and in the streets, we can often see the deaf people. They always attract the attention of the public: people strenuously pretending that they have absolutely no interest, yet are secretly watching deaf. What do at that moment people with disabilities to communicate feel? Is it difficult? How is it to live life not hearing a word? What a person feels, whose life lies within his inner world?
For a deaf person the world around is perceived in another way. For example, if parents teach a deaf child to talk, to do it, Continue reading...

Introduction

Have you ever heard that a monkey brain is edible? I guess according to current trends everything is almost edible; dogs, cats, tigers. Name all of them. Some are even consuming our ancestors the monkeys. What is wrong? Is it ignorance gone on a rampage, or just a mere discovery that we did not know before? Imagine some people consume monkey brains and they even have descriptions for the delicacy cooked, raw, and flash fried while others still eat it as a snack in the mid-morning. It is such an expensive food. I wonder where these monkeys are sourced Continue reading...

Article Summaries

According to Scarr and Richard, the influence of intelligence is due to genetics and environmental variables that are difficult to segregate. Psychologists often argue about the nature and the nurture of genetic variation fixes in the human behavior (Scarr and Richard 262). Some offer that genetic differences are negating to change in behavior. This belief has limitation since it fails to distinguish the environmental and the genetic sources of individual differences in behavior. In this case, one is not in a position to assess the impact of heredity in behavioral domains since all people have a gene complement expressed Continue reading...

The brain is a highly complex organ, with a network of nerve cells that serve as a starting point for everything an individual senses, thinks, and ultimately the actions carried out. There are two responses that the brain is responsible for carrying out: conscious responses and autonomic responses, with fear being an example of the latter due to it usually being triggered unconsciously, leaving the individual to realize that the fear reaction has been triggered only after a myriad of physical responses have occurred (Debiec & LeDoux, 2004).
While the experience of fear is rather Continue reading...
