Are psychopaths really brain-damaged or is that just a facile excuse?
Psychopaths have very abnormal brain functions, severely impairing many of the processes that normal people take so for granted.One of the problems with anything wrong with one's central nervous system is that if it's severe and pervasive enough, it can interfere with the autonomic and peripheral nervous systems as well.In psychopaths, such maladies as what was once called neurasthenia (a state of unnatural sedation) or epilepsy (seizure disorders) are far more frequent than in the general population. Many people who are not psychopaths have some of the more than 100 forms of peripheral neuropathy, but some of these may be more common in psychopaths.The autonomic nervous system, which prepares the body for emergencies (fight-or-flight) is erratic and inefficient in a psychopath, which can, in some situations, lead to fatal accidents; human beings have adrenaline for a reason, and the sympathetic nervous system of a true psychopath is sluggish and cannot sustain arousal for long. (In Borderline Personality Disorder, the problem is the opposite: the sympathetic nervous system responds too easily, too strongly, and way too often!)Aside from this is the fact that a true psychopath has an extremely peculiar brainwave pattern: while awake, their brain waves most resemble a hybrid of normal waking brain waves and alpha-level sleep waves. And they often tend to sleep deeply.Emotionally, they are cold, detached, distant, and yet deeply resentful of normal people.They know they're missing something, and often spend most of their typically short, tragic lives avenging themselves on others for having what they themselves cannot ever enjoy.So they are not truly emotionless, but they do not love, do not know true joy, and are hostile and destructive.This ISN'T the work of the Devil; it's Nature gone horribly awry. ANYTHING THAT CAN DAMAGE THE DEVELOPING NERVOUS-SYSTEM IN A FETUS OR VERY YOUNG CHILD CAN CAUSE OR SEVERELY EXACERBATE THIS CONDITION.
Is all human behavior the result of learning and conditioning?
No, that is only part of the equation. Human behavior is genetic, learning and I am not too sure about conditioning. Sounds like your question had a behaviorist slant and these concepts, called empiricism, are long refuted.
When alcohol reaches the brain it begins to effect those areas of the brain that control?
When alcohol reaches the brain, it begins to affect areas responsible for inhibiting behavior, processing information, and controlling movement. It can impair judgment, coordination, and cognitive functions due to its depressive effects on the central nervous system. Continued heavy alcohol consumption can lead to long-term changes in brain structure and function.
What are the new findings that affect human development?
New findings in the field of human development include the importance of early childhood experiences on long-term outcomes, the impact of genetics and epigenetics on development, and the role of environmental factors such as poverty and exposure to toxins on human growth and behavior. Research also continues to explore the effects of technology and media on development, as well as the influence of cultural diversity and social relationships.
In In which field of psychology do scientists study mental processes to understand human behavior as well as how the brain moves information from short-term memory to long-term memory?
congitive
How long is the human nervous system?
the nervous system reaches from the back of the neck to our backReally long.
How long is your nervous system and what functions does it serve in the human body?
The human nervous system is about 100 trillion nerve cells long and serves to transmit signals between the brain and the rest of the body. It controls bodily functions, processes sensory information, and coordinates movement.
What will happen if human doesn't have a brain?
Any human with no brain at all will not live long. The autonomic nervous system is needed to keep you alive.
Why is the nervous system so long?
because the nervous system ensures there is feeling in all parts of the body.
What has the author Edward Long Fox written?
Edward Long Fox has written: 'The Influence of the Sympathetic on Disease' 'The pathological anatomy of the nervous centers' -- subject(s): Nervous System Diseases, Nervous system, Diseases
Which division of the autonomic nervous system is characterized by short preganglionic and long postganglionic fibers?
The parasympathetic nervous system has long preganglionic and short postganglionic fibers
What are two human body systems which often work together to maintain homeostasis?
The nervous system and endocrine system often work together to maintain homeostasis in the body. The nervous system controls rapid responses to changes in the environment, while the endocrine system regulates slower, long-term changes by releasing hormones into the bloodstream. Together, they help the body maintain a stable internal environment.
What is a long-term affects of alcohol on the nervous system?
Swaft
In comparison to the nervous system the regulatory effects of the endocrine system are what?
slow & long lasting
Responsibility of the autonomic nervous system?
All the unvoluntary things.... You have the parasympathetic nervous and the sympathetic nervous system. Parasympathetic nervous system: Long pre-g, short post-g aka the craniosacral nervous system - The slow responses.... like slow heart rate by vagus nerve Sympathetic nervous system: Short preg-, long post-g aka the thoracolumbar nervous system - Fight or flight responses like increase heart rate . Pre-g nicotinic stimulation to adrenal medulla which releases adrenaline (epinephrine)
How long does pregabalin and codeine stay in the nervous system?
six weeks
How long the human digestive system?
The human digestive system when stretched out end to end is about 30 feet long.
