intraparietal sulcus (IPS) deals with math.
It is now belived that east asians are good at math because their language involves mathamatics. So it is very important to teach a kid at a young age about mathematical equations, and to think in logical patters(X is Y, Y is Z therefore X is Z) and introduce them to Algebra at an early age.
The left temporal lobe deals with language. So it is important to either speak to your kid in a foreign language along with English at an early age. If you teach your kid a romance language ( i,e Spanish) then it will be easier for them to learn another Romance language later on in life ( i,e French.) It would also be a smart idea to let your kid watch a television show for an hour a day.
The whole right side of the brain is used in General logic, comphersion, ideas art, social sciences etc. This part of the brain is mostly used by kids early on, whether it be from television to general ideas given to them etc. This is why social science classes are so easy for kids later on in life such as Sociology, History etc.
It is disputed whether we actually LOOSE brain cells when we get older, but it is widley accepted we stop creating NEW brain cells around the time we hit puberty. This is believed to be the reason why kids pick up stuff so easily. So if your older like me you learn stuff the old fashion way( thru memory and general logic.)
How can shaking a baby lead to subdural hematoma?
Shaken Baby Syndrome is a condition caused by violently shaking a baby. There are usually three signs in a baby that shaking may have occurred: subdural hematoma, retinal hemorrhage, and cerebral edema.
Subdural hematoma (bleeding in the brain) is caused by the brain "bouncing around" inside the skull. As the head is whipped back and forth (the same sort of injury that can occur with whiplash), the brain is forcefully slammed into the dura and impacted against the inner wall of the skull, causing bleeding and swelling beneath the dura, or between the dura and the brain tissue. This trauma also causes brain swelling (cerebral edema), and through an action known as "vitreoretinal traction", the distinctive pattern of retinal hemorrhaging can occur.
What result can be expected when a five month old is placed on a visual cliff structure?
Note: the intended full question is:
"What result can be expected when a five month old is placed on a visual cliff structure with part of its floor as a checkerboard pattern beside clear plastic that allows the infant to see down a couple of feet to another floor with checkerboard pattern and her mother calls her to come across it."
This "Visual Cliff" is the name of a psychology experiment testing depth perception. The researchers showed that the majority of young babies would cry because they believed the 'shallow' side was safer and believed they could not cross the 'deep' side to get to their mothers, despite their urge and need to crawl to mom.
Many would act normal
When doing a frequency count why is it important to first establish a baseline count?
Establishing a baseline count is crucial in frequency counting as it provides a reference point for evaluating changes over time. It helps to contextualize the data, allowing for comparisons that can identify trends, patterns, or anomalies. Without a baseline, it becomes challenging to determine whether observed frequencies are significant or merely a result of random variation. Thus, a baseline enhances the reliability and interpretability of the frequency data.
