The Brain and Behavior - How Our Brain Influences Actions
from Mind Matters: Exploring Human Psychology · host Nieva Bell Marie
We cover the basic anatomy of the brain, including the cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem, and limbic system. We explore how neurons and neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and GABA influence our thoughts, emotions, and actions. Key brain regions such as the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and basal ganglia are highlighted for their roles in decision making, emotional responses, learning, memory, and social interactions. We also discuss brain plasticity, common brain disorders, and techniques used to study the brain. Finally, we look at practical applications in mental health treatment, education, rehabilitation, and personal development.#BrainAndBehavior #Neuroscience #Psychology #Neurons #Neurotransmitters #MentalHealth #CognitivePsychology #Neuroplasticity #BrainDisorders #HumanMind #MindMatters
