Procrastination maybe a good thing Procrastination among college students is a common phenomenon. In this paper‚ I will talk about how procrastination maybe a good thing for students by explain in two aspects. First‚ I will apply this phenomenon of putting off review before exam to the difference of short-term memory and long-term memory. Then I will explain how frontal lobe among other lobes contributes to the decision of procrastination. I am a lot worse than I was at procrastinating last year

certain sections of an infant’s brain‚ specifically the orbito-frontal cortex‚ is active when viewing their own mother smile‚ but is inactive when observing an unfamiliar female smiling. (Naoi) The study found similar results when inspecting infant directed speech. The study found that “significantly stronger responses were elicited in the left posterior temporal regions and in the left and right anterior prefrontal cortex when [the] 2-month-old infants [were] listening to their own mothers’ voice

Human multitasking is the best performance by an individual of appearing to handle more than one task at the same time. The term is derived from computer multitasking. An example of multitasking is taking phone calls while typing an email. Some believe that multitasking can result in time wasted due to human context switching and apparently causing more errors due to insufficient attention. Etymology The term "multitasking" originated in the computer engineering industry.[1] It refers to the

Chapter 4 Study Guide 1. What are the two main functions of the sympathetic nervous system? (A) Activating system that arouses the body‚ mobilizing its energy in stressful situations – fight/flight (B) Regulates strong emotional reactions 2. What are the two main functions of the parasympathetic NS? “Rest and Digest‚” Calming system that conserves energy. 3. How do the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems work together (what are some images and metaphors used to describe them)?
