      From: aminer68@gmail.com              Hello..                     The study shows that in more intelligent persons certain brain regions are       clearly more strongly involved in the exchange of information between       different sub-networks of the brain in order for important information to be       communicated quickly and        efficiently. On the other hand, the research team also identified brain       regions that are more strongly 'de-coupled' from the rest of the network in       more intelligent people. This may result in better protection against       distracting and irrelevant inputs. "       We assume that network properties we have found in more intelligent persons       help us to focus mentally and to ignore or suppress irrelevant, potentially       distracting inputs," says Basten. The causes of these associations remain an       open question at present.        "It is possible that due to their biological predispositions, some individuals       develop brain networks that favor intelligent behaviors or more challenging       cognitive tasks. However, it is equally as likely that the frequent use of the       brain for        cognitively challenging tasks may positively influence the development of       brain networks. Given what we currently know about intelligence, an interplay       of both processes seems most likely."              Read more here on science News:              Smart people have better connected brains              https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/11/171122103552.htm                     Thank you,       Amine Moulay Ramdane.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
