The Relationship Between Consciousness and Intelligence ** Mirror Neurons Close Pop-up all posts in this chapter Cognition is a complex process that involves not just our brain but also our physical body, environment, and actions. This is the idea behind 4E cognition, which encompasses the four factors that shape cognition: embodiment, embeddedness, extension, and enaction. … Continue reading Beyond the Brain The multidimensional nature of cognition
Communication involves both speaking and listening. Traditional research has studied these processes separately within individual brains. This study examines brain activity in speakers and listeners during natural conversation, revealing coupled neural responses that correlate with effective communication. Abstract Verbal communication is a joint activity; however, speech production and comprehension have primarily been analyzed as independent … Continue reading Speaker-listener Neural Coupling Underlies Successful Communication Greg J. Stephens, Lauren J. Silbert, and Uri Hasson (2010)
Mirror Neurons Mirror Neurons and Interbrain Synchrony Enhancing Conversation ** Close Pop-up all posts in this chapter Interbrain synchrony occurs when neural activities align between people during social interactions. Understanding this phenomenon can improve communication, teamwork, and learning. Research in this field provides insights into effective social connections and may lead to advancements in education, … Continue reading Interbrain Synchrony When neural activities align between people during social interactions
