activity in the truth-telling arm." Overall‚ it seemed to take more brain effort to tell the lie than to tell the truth‚ Faro found. Lying caused activity in the frontal part of the brain --- the medial inferior and pre-central areas‚ as well as the hippocampus and middle temporal regions and the limbic areas. Some of these are involved in emotional responses‚ Faro said. During a truthful response‚ the fMRI showed activation of parts of the brain’s frontal lobe‚

The brain is the key to our existence and carrying out daily functions‚ whether we are aware of the process or not as it is carried out. This factor becomes important as well when understanding the role of development with criminal involvement. The male brain is different in several ways to the female brain not only in size but in structure as well. The average male brain weighs around 11% more than the female brain (Craig et al.‚ 2004‚ 270). The differences in the structure are in certain

Memory is the mental faculty of retaining and recalling past experience. It ’s a very complex system and to understand it there have been many theories that attempt to explain it. In order to help me answer this question‚ I will look at the theorist JM Gardiner‚ along with other theorists such as Tulving‚ Mandler and Schacter in order to help me conclude if they are the same thing‚ inter-related or completely different. Tulving (1985)‚ distinguished between two quite different recollective experiences:

can improve memory‚ it can also stunt new memories. e. This effect has only been seen in animals so far. As there is not much research on the negative impacts of music done on humans. Music could potentially‚ if listened to in excess‚ deter the hippocampus part of the brain from forming new ideas and memories. 2. Music can hurt your ears. a. Another negative aspect that I discovered that my Mother has been warning me about for years‚ is the impact listening to music can have on hearing ability. Many

My research paper will be on the temporal lobes‚ which is what I believe to be the most important part of the brain. I will be explaining what its functions are and why they are so important. To begin the temporal lobes are structures in the cerebral cortex‚ they are located just above the ears‚ and are almond shaped. They are involved in the functions of hearing‚ language processing‚ and memory. Now that you know these details I will now go more into detail of how the temporal lobes control these

Auditory agnosia is a form of agnosia that manifests primarily in the inability to recognize or differentiate between sounds. It is not a defect of the ear‚ but a neurological inability of the brain to process what the sound means. It is a disruption of the "what" pathway in the brain. [1] Persons with auditory agnosia can physically hear the sounds and describe them using unrelated terms‚ but are unable to recognize them. They might describe the sound of some environmental sounds‚ such as a motor

The part in the brain that helps with learning is called the hippocampus. The hippocampus is in the limbic system. It is the part of the brain where the learning that people do in day to day life takes place. Learning is a neurobiological that is important to humans and being able to be conscious.

memory system works. What is a memory? According to Merriam-Webster‚ it is a particular act of recall or recollection. Multiple parts of the brain deal with memories‚ but one part in particular deals with it the most. The Limbic system in the Hippocampus deals with memories the most. There are two different memories‚ one is explicit‚ which is memories bought forward by your conscious. An example is remembering your parent’s birthday. Second are implicit memories. These are memories that you

Student Article Analysis Routes to Remembering: the Brains Behind Superior Memory The focus of this experimental study was to determine what causes select individuals to have superior memory capabilities when compared to the others of the general population. To determine what caused this superior memory‚ the used three different methods of experimentation to test three different theories. Using these methods they tested whether superior memorizers and control subjects
