If you’ve ever watched a person say one thing and do another – you’ve likely wondered how it’s possible to speak one way and then live its polar opposite.
Call somebody a friend and most expect that you have that person’s back in pinch.
Speak of ethical standards others should hold, and people tend to trust yours.
Research studies now show links in the human brain between what people think or say and how they act. Why should we care?
Interestingly, studies at CNRS /University Victor Ségalen,
Check the January 31st edition of The Journal of Neuroscience to learn how decision-making brain functions lead to movement towards a target action or motor information. Here’s the brief version….
Your basal ganglia operates movement from decisions into actions. This study showed how cognitive information regulates the coding of motor information through neurons in the basal ganglia. How so?
Cells network between purely cognitive and purely motor information. Although it’s still in the early stages … this research encourages people to consider gaps between what we know as a way to improve what we do.
What do you think?
I think this sounds really exciting and that you should explain more. What you find obvious, we're still learning. :)
