Jennifer gave a pretty introduction,"Hello and a very good evening everyone My name is Jennifer Samuel.It's an honor to be here.Today we will represent a very interesting topic which is,"Human Psychology".First of all I would like to call Zen to give the introduction of this amazing topic.Now the spot light was on Zen only, he started,
"Psychology is the art of studying the behavioral changes of various beings. Some psychologists call it crazy. Some would call him a genius from heaven. Psychology is also called science of mind. Mind is a rather difficult field of research. Many question its presence and where exactly it is located.
"Importance of psychology",
Man's thinking and actions cannot be limited in his mind. There is more to it. We have a sense of gut, intuition and de Ja vu feelings belong to this beautiful mystical realm. Man is active even while sleeping. That's why the science of that psychology is called the science of behavior. Therefore it deals with behavior and its changes seen in humans and other beings",he stopped for a moment and said,"now the behavior will be further discussed by Miss Ana.
Ana came infront and started,
BEHAVIOR
Behavior is also a wide field of research. This is a broad concept. It mentions our way of thinking, work, our experiences, our thoughts, our activities and many more. Life is built on a billion emotions that are told and untold. And behavior includes everyone. Psychology mainly focuses on this behavioral area of many individuals. They try to explain why individuals behave like this. They look at its concepts",She sighed in relief and again continued,
[Aspects of psychology]
There are four main goals of psychology. This includes how to describe, how to explain it, to anticipate what is likely to happen next, and to change unwanted situations. Scientists who work in these fields or fields are called psychologists. They study the process and concepts of thinking, learning, cognition, emotions, motives and personalities. Many studies and research are done by psychologists to try and find out why organisms do the work that they do".
She gave a look to Jennifer and mentioned that now Miss Jennifer will continue this.
Jennifer took a deep breath asked Roby to connect the USB with projector he did as she said With the help of slides she started and said,"So now we'll discuss about the study and amazing facts of psychology,
Psychology has been studied for over a thousand years now. Even from an early age, people were very curious about the human mind. Even now people are difficult to understand and find out the exact reason for the stimulation of the mind. But they do not stop there.
[Amazing facts about Brain and psychology]
1. It can store an estimated 2,500,000 gigabytes
According to Paul Reber, Professor of Psychology at Northwestern University, the human brain can store an estimated 2,500,000 gigabytes. That's equivalent to 300 years worth of TV shows. [Scientific American]
2. The human attention span is shorter than a goldfish
Research shows that the average attention span has decreased by an average 12 minutes over the last 10 years. Today, the human attention span is shorter than a goldfish. for example, if you're scrolling through social media while watching TV — and declining attention spans.
3. The average weight of the adult human brain is three pounds
On average, the adult brain weighs three pounds. For reference, this is comparable to how much a cantaloupe weighs.
4. Memories are stored for both short-term and long-term use at the same time
Neuroscientists have known for a long time that the hippocampus stores short-term memories. However, a recent study revealed that while short-term memories are formed in the hippocampus, they are simultaneously stored in another part of the brain for long-term memories.
5. Vitamin B1 can help improve short- and long-term memory
Vitamin B1 is essential to producing the brain chemical acetylcholine, which is needed for concentrating and storing memories. An Australian study revealed that those who consumed B1 supplements and folic acid for two years improved long and short-term memory.
6. Easy access to information can make it harder to remember
Being able to quickly access information—i.e. via our borderline invincible Internet—actually makes it harder to remember. The harder we work to access data, the more likely we are to remember.
7. Memories start forming in the womb
Memories start forming in the womb, as this is a critical time for brain development. Memory recall can occur as early as four months into pregnancy.
8. It uses 20% of the body's total oxygen and energy.
The brain uses 20 percent of the body's total oxygen and energy, which travels to the brain through blood vessels. Nerve cells in the brain need a lot of energy; without adequate oxygen and energy to the central nervous system tissue, one can suffer impaired brain functions and neurological disorders.
9. It's composed of 73% water
The brain is 73 percent water. It only takes 2 percent dehydration to affect your attention and memory.
10. Sweating can temporarily shrink the brain.
An hour and a half of sweating can temporarily shrink brain size as much as one year of aging does.
11. Five minutes without oxygen can cause brain damage,five minutes without oxygen can lead to brain cells dying, which causes brain damage.
12. It generates 12-15 watts of electricity
The brain generates between 12 and 25 watts of electricity—that's enough to power a low wattage light bulb! [National Geographic]
13. Neurons travel 150 mph in the brain
Neurons travel 150 mph in the brain. Different types of neurons move at different speeds - for example, pain signals move much slower than other ones.
14. Those who take a quiz twice are 65% more likely to remember the facts.
Those who take a quiz after its revision are 65 percent more likely to remember the facts.
15. Learning new things increases gray matter in the brain
When we learn something new, our brain forms new connections between neurons; this then increases visible gray matter in the brain".
"These were fifteen amazing facts now Roby will continue and let you know about the other facts,she smiled and welcomed Roby.He continued,
16.Memory is prioritized by emotion. But this also means that a lot of our "memories" are unintended flawed fiction.
17. Emotions can alter our brain chemistry
Similarly to the above fact, emotions drastically alter our brains. The chemical reactions stirred by feelings can be physically seen in brain scans and studies of gray matter.
18. It has an average of 50,000-70,000 thoughts a day.The average brain has between 50,000 and 70,000 thoughts a day. Upsettingly, the majority (an estimated 60-70 percent) of the thoughts are negative.
19. More than 100,000 chemical reactions take place in the brain every second
With roughly 100 billion brain cells, more than 100,000 chemical reactions take place in the brain every second.
20. When intoxicated, it can't form memories
When intoxicated, the brain is incapable of forming memories. So no, you didn't "forget" what happened last night. The memory simply was never formed.
21. Practicing recollection can help PTSD.
Practicing recollection can help aid PTSD. There are a variety of psychological treatment methods that mental health care providers use to help those suffering from PTSD safely confront and cope with traumatic experiences.
22. Its texture and consistency is comparable to tofu.The texture and consistency of the human brain is comparable to tofu. This isn't too surprising, given that it's made up primarily of gray and white matter, as well as water.
23. It starts slowing at around 24 years old
Research shows that the cognitive speed of your brain starts slowing down when you're around 24 years old.
24. 95% of all decisions are subconscious
95 percent of all decisions take place in the subconscious mind. This means that the vast majority of our actions and behaviors occur due to brain activity that lies beyond our conscious awareness.
25. The brain itself cannot feel pain
Although pain is processed in the brain, the organ itself cannot feel pain. This is why brain surgeries can occur while a patient is awake, without discomfort.
Why is love important psychologically?
In short, feeling close to someone can soothe anxiety. Love encourages healthy habits. The correlation between adherence to mental health treatment and a positive relationship with your partner suggests a larger trend: a positive relationship with your partner supports healthy behaviors on all levels.
The list goes on and on. As more research is conducted, and we learn more about the human brain's capabilities, we also learn how to keep our minds sharp",he said, sighed and took a few back steps.
They all held each others hands and bowed then said,"Thank you very much".
A huge round of applause for them was conducted.They got a shine in their eye's and left the stage with bright smiles.
