ALLAH MAKES AN AMAZING BRAIN FOR US



         
         The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals—only a few invertesponges, jellyfish, adult sea squirts and starfish do not have one, even if diffuse neural tissue is present. It is located in the head, usually close to the primary sensory organs for such senses as vision, hearing, balance, taste, and smell. The brain is the most complex organ in a vertebrate's body. In a typical human the cerebral cortex (the largest part) is estimated to contain 15–33 billion neurons, each connected by synapses to several thousand other neurons. These neurons communicate with one another by means of long protoplasmic fibers called axons, which carry trains of signal pulses called action potentials to distant parts of the brain or body targeting specific recipient cells brates such as
Physiologically, the function of the brain is to exert centralized control over the other organs of the body. The brain acts on the rest of the body both by generating patterns of muscle activity and by driving the secretion of chemicals called hormones. This centralized control allows rapid and coordinated responses to changes in the environment. Some basic types of responsiveness such as reflexes can be mediated by the spinal cord or peripheral ganglia, but sophisticated purposeful control of behavior based on complex sensory input requires the information-integrating capabilities of a centralized brain.
From a philosophical point of view, what makes the brain special in comparison to other organs is that it forms the physical structure associated with the mind. As Hippocrates put it: "Men ought to know that from nothing else but the brain come joys,separate from the brain. Even for present-day neuroscience, the mechanisms by which brain activity gives rise to consciousness and thought remain very challenging to understand: despite rapid scientific progress, much about how the brain works remains a mystery. The operations of individual brain cells are now understood in considerable detail, but the way they cooperate in ensembles of millions has yet to be solved. The most promising approaches treat the brain as a biological computer, very different in mechanism from an electronic computer, but similar in the sense that it acquires information from the surrounding world, stores it, and processes it in a variety of ways, analogous to the central processing unit (CPU) in a computer.

delights, laughter and sports, and sorrows, griefs, despondency, and lamentations. Through much of history, the mind was thought to be
This article compares the properties of brains across the entire range of animal species, with the greatest attention to vertebrates. It deals with the human brain insofar as it shares the properties of other brains. The ways in which the human brain differs from other brains are covered in the human brain article. Several topics that might be covered here are instead covered there because much more can be said about them in a human context. The most important is brain disease and the effects of brain damage, covered in the human brain article because the most common diseases of the human brain either do not show up in other species, or else manifest themselves in different ways.
 Man was created to perfect as possible by the Creator . All control and our activities are controlled by the brain . There are many cells in the brain cells are interconnected . Workings of the brain is also divided according to their respective duties . It was like all of our performance is controlled by the brain .
There is also the division of tasks in the brain structures . There is a right brain and left brain . And also there is the midbrain . Regulate the function of the right brain imagination , music etc. . And left brain function to regulate us in concentration , logic , counting etc. . Some researchers say that is also found in the human midbrain . But some have also said that the fact that there is no central brain .
There are causes that can provide a good stimulus to the brain , for example, with our set Kitaa lifestyle . Eating good food , sleeping with the right time and stay away from alcohol and so on .
Brain will function better when our brains do not accept something that can not be received . Many factors can mempenagruhi poor performance of the brain . For example , with smoking , eating unhealthy food , sleep hours berantakana and so on .
Brain that God created so much effect on our lives . With the brain so we can sharpen our thinking . By continuing to think and think then it will add to and improve the processes of the brain . However , do not misunderstand . The perfect our brain also has a weakness , fatigue can also meresakan . If you feel tired brain , the brain would normally be difficult to accept and respond to , as well as difficult to organize events or actions . For example, if our brains are tired , we 'll catch it with something that submit their old better known as " slow " on someone .
               Brain as though bowing closer to the Creator . So God heard the prayers of the brain to keep his master ( ktia human ) in order to be kept in mind and brain performance.
Well , we as humans should be thankful to have the brain that may be the way it works is more complicated than how we work the next day . Surely we created with all shapes and perfect things . Brain each second was prostrate on the Almighty , how do we ? SubhaAllah , Brain was prostration .

WE HAVE A PERSONALITY


Personality is usually broken into components called the BIG FIVE, which are openness to experience, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism (or emotionality). These components are generally stable over time and appear to be attributable to a person’s genetics rather than the effects of one’s environment.
Some research has investigated whether the relationship between happiness and extraversion seen in adults can also be seen in children. The implications of these findings can help identify children that are more likely to experience episodes of depression and develop types of treatment that such children are likely to respond to. In both children and adults, research shows that genetics, as opposed to environmental factors, exert a greater influence on happiness levels. Personality is not believed to become stable until the age of thirty but personality constructs in children are referred to as temperament.Temperament is regarded as the precursor to personality.Whereas McCrae and Costa’s Big Five Model assesses personality traits in adults, the EAS model is used to assesses temperament in the children. This model measures levels of emotionality, activity, sociability and shyness in children. The EAS model in children is believed to be the equivalent for the Big Five model in adults. Findings show that high degrees of sociability and low degrees of shyness are equivalent to adult extroversion and are also correlated with higher levels of life satisfaction in children.
Another interesting finding has been the link found between acting extroverted and positive affect. Extroverted behaviors include acting talkative, assertive, adventurous and outgoing and for the purposes of this study, positive affect is defined as experiences of happy and enjoyable emotions. This study investigated the effects of acting in a way that is counter to a person’s dispositional nature. In other words, the study looked at the benefits and drawbacks of introverts (people who are shy, socially inhibited and non-aggressive) acting extroverted and extroverts acting introverted. After acting extroverted, introverts’ experience of positive affect increased whereas extroverts seemed to experience lower levels of positive affect and suffered from the phenomenon of ego depletion. Ego depletion, or cognitive fatigue is the use of one’s energy to overtly act in a way that is contrary to one’s inner disposition. When a person acts in a contrary fashion, he diverts most, if not all, (cognitive) energy toward regulated this foreign style of behavior and attitudes. Because all available energy is being used to maintain this contrary behavior, the result is the inability to use any energy to make important or tough decisions, plan for the future, control or regulate emotions, or perform effectively on other cognitive tasks.
               One question that has been posited is why extroverts tend to be happier than introverts. Two types of explanations attempt to account for this difference: the instrumental theories and temperamental theories.The instrumental theory suggests that extraverts end up making choices that place them in more positive situations and they also react more strongly than introverts to positive situations. The temperamental theory suggests that extroverts have a disposition that generally leads them to experience a higher degree of positive affect. In their study of extroversion, Lucas and Baird found no statistically significant support for the instrumental theory but did, however, find that extraverts generally experience a higher level of positive affect.
Research has also been conducted to uncover some of the  mediators that are responsible for the correlation between extroversion and happiness. Self-esteem and self-efficacy are two such mediators. Self-efficacy has been found to be related to the personality traits of extroversion and subjective well-being. Self-efficacy is one’s belief about abilities to perform up to personal standards, the ability to produced desired results, and the feeling of having some ability to make important life decisions. However, the relationship between extroversion (and neuroticism) and subjective happiness is only partially mediated by self-efficacy. This implies that there are most likely other factors that mediate the relationship between subjective happiness and personality traits. Another such factor may be self-esteem. It seems that individuals with a greater degree of confidence about themselves and their abilities have both a higher degree of subjective well-being and a higher level of extroversion.
Other research has examined the phenomenon of mood maintenance as another possible mediator. Mood maintenance, the ability to maintain one’s average level of happiness in the face of an ambiguous situation (meaning a situation that has the potential to engender either positive or negative emotions in different individuals), has been found to be a stronger force in extroverts.This means that the happiness levels of extroverted individuals are less susceptible to the influence of external events. Another implication of this finding is that extroverts’ positive moods last longer than those of introverts.
so we should know how we are. everyone's thinking about his personality is different. the personality we should be able to understand ourselves. we also must be able to organize ourselves into having a good personality for others.

MEMORY IN BRAIN IS AMAZING



in psychology, memory is the process in which information is encoded, stored, and retrieved. Encoding allows information that is from the outside world to reach our senses in the forms of chemical and physical stimuli. In this first stage we must change the information so that we may put the memory into the encoding process. Storage is the second memory stage or process. This entails that we maintain information over periods of time. Finally the third process is the retrieval of information that we have stored. We must locate it and return it to our consciousness. Some retrieval attempts may be effortless due to the type of information.
From an information processing perspective there are three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory:
  • Encoding or registration: receiving, processing and combining of received information
  • Storage: creation of a permanent record of the encoded information
  • Retrieval, recall or recognition: calling back the stored information in response to some cue for use in a process or activity
The loss of memory is described as forgetfulness, or as a medical disorder, amnesia.
Why do we sometimes forget and sometimes remember ? what the brain receives aggregated select the memory ? This may question the person about the memory . Brain not aggregated select anyway, but it is influenced by several factors . We tend to remember things that have a special attraction for us the owner of the brain . If the information is something that is very interesting and important for us , then we will automatically remember about it . And will automatically become part of the memory in our brain .
Memory processes into the brain very quickly accepted , originated from a stimulus that exist in the environment around us , and then received by our senses . As creatures of God that we have five senses , sight , hearing, smell , touch, and taste . In sensory nerves are sensory nerves , after our senses receive stimuli that arrest be an information that makes up a scheme in our brains . Happens in our brain called the attentional process that is how our attention to the information received , then a process of encoding , memory revenue in accordance with what we want, and the last repetition of the information retrieval process so that it becomes embedded memory in the brain . After the three processes that run came a " PERCEPTION " us that we can . With this perception , we can do the analysis and meninterpretasikan to others . Yaaa this is how the memory process in the brain .
An admission of failure of memory in the brain could also be said forget . We have experienced previously forgotten memory so we can remember. Why is that ? yaa this is because the other memory memory received by our brain . Previous memory that we remember , it can be said to experience memory changes with other memory .
I 'll add a bit about about a number of general categories of types of information stored in LTM ( Bower , 1975) is based on the possibility of adaptive function :
1 . spatial abilities
2 . Characteristics of the physical characteristics of the world around us .
3 . spatial relationships
4 . Social values ​​.
5 . Skills motor skills
6 . Skills perceptual skills .
Why is the brain so much to remember memory ? yes SubhanaAllah is all the will of God , the Creator who created perfectly and very sophisticated at all . Imagine what happens when our brains do not mempung accommodate our memory as long as we live . Hopefully with this simple article for readers .

WHAT'S ILLUSION ?


An illusion is a distortion of the senses, revealing how the brain normally organizes and interprets sensory stimulation. Though illusions distort reality, they are generally shared by most people.[1] Illusions may occur with any of the human senses, but visual illusions (optical illusions), are the most well-known and understood. The emphasis on visual illusions occurs because vision often dominates the other senses. For example, individuals watching a ventriloquist will perceive the voice is coming from the dummy since they are able to see the dummy mouth the words.[2] Some illusions are based on general assumptions the brain makes during perception. These assumptions are made using organizational principles (e.g., Gestalt theory), an individual's capacity for depth perception and motion perception, and perceptual constancy. Other illusions occur because of biological sensory structures within the human body or conditions outside of the body within one’s physical environment.
The term illusion refers to a specific form of sensory distortion. Unlike a hallucination, which is a distortion in the absence of a stimulus, an illusion describes a misinterpretation of a true sensation. For example, hearing voices regardless of the environment would be a hallucination, whereas hearing voices in the sound of running water (or other auditory source) would be an illusion.
Mimes are known for a repertoire of illusions that are created by physical means. The mime artist creates an illusion of acting upon or being acted upon by an unseen object. These illusions exploit the audience's assumptions about the physical world. Well-known examples include "walls", "climbing stairs", "leaning", "descending ladders", and "pulling and pushing".

Sometimes what we perceive is not in accordance with the facts and reality . In the world of psychology it is called with a
" ILLUSION '' . The illusion is a misperception that often happens to us . If an illusion to happen to us , do not worry . The illusion is not an abnormality in perceiving something . With ilusilah will be a mistake of perception , where what we understand , and we actually perceive is not in accordance with the facts . With illusion , we can learn how to work the system to understand our perceptions .
In fact our senses can be deceived in many ways , and the deception extends to every sensory organs such as eyes . Actually, we realize that the illusion is only a sham , but our senses to perceive it and there was an illusion .
Try to think , if we look at a picture illusion sure we will laugh , smile imagining . It can not be avoided , because our senses are caught . And the sense of giving out a wrong perception .
An image that moves as if it is not. See more objects in one image . Actually, we know the error in the picture , but our senses capture and illusion or misperception persists . For some reason , the illusion is common to us .
Psychologists describe various kinds of illusions , among others : the illusion of space , illusion distortion , direction illusion , and the illusion of life in pictures . The illusion of space can be illustrated with a picture of a circular object that looks like a circle larger than other objects . Illusory distortions such as when a line on an image appear curved when it is not . there is also the direction of the illusion as if the images shown are not straight and not parallel , when in fact the image was straight and parallel . And that terakhiradalah illusion in this motion picture as we see a silent picture , but it was as though the move.
Illusion in the face by the one with the other people who are different, the difference is based on several factors . Many factors affect different people different misperceptions . Factors such as attention factor , sets , needs , value systems , personality traits , and psychiatric disorders .
So do not worry if we have always experienced the illusion . Because it is a Mistake our senses in perceiving something . dsapat concluded illusion as perceptual experience is wrong, what we perceive sodium absorption ratio in accordance with the facts . Do not be afraid to play illusion , illusion karen is a trick of our own perceptions .
