Why does having a beer when your hungover make you feel better?

because....Good answer You feel hungover mainly because alcohol inhibits the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) causing you to urinate more frequently and become dehydrated. Also EtOh is metabolized to acetaldehyde which can form free radicals that sequester anti oxidant vitamins. The aldehyde can remain in tissue longer and is associated with other hang over feelings.


Why is conditioning also called learning by association?

Consider the original experiments of Ivan Pavlov. He would ring a bell and then feed his dogs. The dogs always heard a bell just before they were fed. Therefore, the events of a bell ringing and being fed were associated in the minds of the dogs. Therefore they were conditioned to expect food when they heard a bell, and as Pavlov observed, their digestive enzymes would be secreted when they heard a bell, even if he did not feed them. The bell alone was enough to produce the conditioned response of preparing to digest food.


Psychological advantages and disadvantages of being a male?

A primary strength for men is that men are able to react to fear with aggression whereas women tend to become frozen or immobilized by feelings of fear. Additionally, men have substantially better upper body strength, but both sexes tend to have equal lower body strength. Weaknesses: compared to women, men use more of their left hemisphere and have a smaller corpus collosum which connects each hemisphere of the brain. As a result, men have difficulty multi tasking, whereas women are naturally able to multi task. Men can focus on one moving object in a field than women. Men and women have different eyes - men more rods and women more cones. As a result, men can see movement and contrast better and women can see color and detail better up close. Women are more social and gravitate towards social careers. Men aren't, so they are okay being alone and often think highly of their ability to work independently, but women can work independently too if trained, and definitely work better in groups. These are generalizations, but the 80-20 rule probably works - there's always exceptions, but this will apply to about 80% of men, and 20% of men will be more or less different from the others. The presence of testosterone and the absence of oxytocin substantially differentiate men from women, physiologically.


What role if any do neurotransmitters have in the course of the sexual disorder pedophilia?

Neurotransmitters are chemicals in the brain that transmit signals between nerve cells. While there is limited research on the specific role of neurotransmitters in pedophilia, some studies suggest that imbalances in certain neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine, may contribute to sexual disorders, including pedophilia. However, it is important to note that the causes of pedophilia are complex and multifactorial, and neurotransmitter abnormalities are just one potential contributing factor. Further research is needed to fully understand the neurobiological aspects of pedophilia.
