Research into brain function is split among those who seek the 'holy-grail' of the algorithm to use in every conceivable software application and those who seek to know how it works so they can treat it, to help ease pain and cure disease.
A few, try to determine how it works, to help heal it from itself.
Not too long ago when a person felt emotionally distraught, the most obvious conclusions were made. The outward signs of illness were what resulted in diagnoses so those signs (symptoms) were treated.
"One in five children have a diagnosable mental, emotional or behavioral disorder. And up to one in 10 may suffer from a serious emotional disturbance. Seventy percent of children, however, do not receive mental health services. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is one of the most common mental disorders in children, affecting 3 to 5 percent of school-age children. As many as one in every 33 children and one in eight adolescents may have depression." [1]
At first, mentally ill persons were simply discarded into homes and cages. They were tortured. Many brutal and illogical things were done to them to just get them to stop the symptoms. The symptoms offended observers.
Then, the symptoms were treated. Finally, the notion came that perhaps symptoms had causes and theories began to wonder what those causes might be.
The direction of mental health, ever since, has been based on the theories of what the brain does, which is actually, no different than the symptoms, what the brain does.
How the brain works gives rise to the real reasons for what the brain does and it has somethings to do with the symptoms but very, very little.
The brain is actually quite simple. It works the same way in everything it does. But since it has variations of configuration and what it does is heretofore unknown, why things happen and result in emotional distress has been a quest through trial and error: more error than success.
"Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15- to 24-year-olds and the sixth leading cause of death for 5- to 14-year-olds. The number of attempted suicides is even higher. Late-life depression affects about 6 million adults, but only 10 percent ever receive treatment. Among adults age 55 and older, 11.4 percent meet the criteria for having an anxiety disorder.
Brain Basics:
The process the brain uses is the same throughout the brain. That process is the most simple of algorithms. It is nothing more than a speech of one to an audience of one.
In a speech of one, one person is imparting detail: the audience of one is accepting that detail and combining it with detail that is similar from their past (long-term memory).
The result, in the mind of the audience of one, is the perception of the speech.
That is how the brain works: in dogs.
What goes in, is compared to what has been put in and the result is what was done before, tempered or excited by what has just gone in.
In dogs, how fast that reaction is, is determined by the degree of temperament or excitation.
In humans, the process has another level, but most people do not know it is there and barely use it at all.
Doctors, soldiers, scientists: the knowledge intensive professions, are most indicative of those who do not use that second level of processing very much, but most people do not use it either. Those who do, stand out, as they make things happen, advance the science, break the rules and usually have the scars to show for it.
Intelligence in dogs is to what degree the speed of memory is faster than the speed of input. If it were the same speed, like a computer, the result would be mirror image responses.
In humans, the second level of brain processing is the same process. But instead of accepting external input and comparing it to long-term memory, it takes the output of long-term and input comparison and compares it to itself, running at a much faster speed than the result of the first level, it works on.
That is similar to two buckets of water, one on top of each other, the first bucket is filled up and spills into the second bucket, but that bucket is smaller and fills up faster, so it unloads faster. It unloads to a tube that refills the fist bucket. Regardless of how fast the first bucket empties, it's water volume remains the same as the second bucket is smaller and refills it: a simple explanation for a more detailed process.
That is all there is to what the brain does. It does push output from both long and short-term processes and depending upon which one is in control the output will either be reactionary (long-term) or contemplative (short-term). Reactions are almost always wrong. Or at least, they are almost always, not correct.
The algorithm (((a-a')/2)+ a')is the process and it has a seven step lifespan. Rather than bore the reader with a string of calculations, simply replace "a" with any arbitrary numerical value and replace "a'" with any other value, less than "a" as it represents the input value while "a" represents the memory value. At the seventh calculation your answers will have reached the point of absurdity and never reach equality.
Just like dropping a ball: drop one and see it cut each subsequent bounce by half until It reaches the inability to bounce. Count the times. (Throwing the ball or dropping it from a height too great is not fair.)
The other issue is: what the frequencies the brain processes are.
Everything has a frequency. Different species have different frequencies. It is the difference in frequency that keeps inter-species procreation from happening. A rock has a frequency. It just does not have amplitude. Life has amplitude. Details on the frequency and what it is may be found in the book, "The Brain Is A Wonderful Thing", available free at http://www.enticypress.com.
A simple process, in its own spectrum, is used by every sense. The two most dominant senses are vision and hearing, or visual and aural.
In dogs, the aural process is dominant. In cats, the visual process is dominant. In humans, either one can be dominant in both long and short-term processing.
With most human beings using short-term processing only for the sense of self-awareness, long-term memory is dominant and that results in reactions to input and the short-term awareness of not being in control of most of them.
It results in depression, anxiety and most every other mental disorder of humans. It also results in emotions.
Emotions are the output of long-term memory, reacting to input, without control of short-term brain process.
Your family pet shows you exactly how it works.
If you come home everyday and romp and slap and yell at your dog while intending to play, your dog will become romp, slap and yell.
You may be doing so with the feeling that a good guard dog needs to be rough and ready.
A good guard dog is loyal and loved. Guarding a loved human being makes the dog lovable and not excitable and results in far more protective measures when necessary than a dog treated like property or worse. The same applies to children.
Where dogs are able to pro-act, in relation to the degree of their intelligence (determined by the speed enhancement of memory processing versus input reception), humans are not only able to pro-act but are also able to stop reacting.
Reacting is the main cause of emotional distress, anger and acts of violence.
Understanding how the brain works permits children to be taught how to think, in school: preparing them for a life of evaluation instead of the current practice of reaction while being able to recite the latest lesson of facts and knowledge.
Teachers who have been trained to teach thinking can provide students with the tools necessary to overcome rejection, contemplate consequences and do so without punishment.
A child physically punished enough will remain long-term dominant and have a much harder time in later life dealing with life and its rejections and unexpected consequences.
With human brains, long-term memory can be dominant in the visual or aural sense. The female gender is normally visually dominant. The male gender is normally aural dominant.
Short-term memory dominance being different than long-term memory dominance lends itself to good and not so good results.
A male aural long-term child with visual short-term may feel out of place among peers and begin to feel more female, while a female with visual long-term and aural short-term may feel more masculine. That used to be considered a tomboy but now can be misunderstood to be a different sexual preference. Read the chapter on Sexual Preference in "The Brain Is A Wonderful Thing" to understand what it is and how it works.
With so many people suffering from mental conditions, brought on by a lack of short-term dominance, and there existing exercises and methods by which to 'turn-up' short-term dominance, not teaching it to students in young grades is only making them tomorrow's victims.
It is imperative that the knowledge of how the brain works breaks through the academic barrier and is comprehended by those able to put it into action.
Humans today are at the top of the evolutionary pathway. If there is to be any further growth it must occur within, with the system provided in the brain to make it happen.
The Enticy Institute is committed to developing curriculum, to provide training and mentoring to teachers so that children of this generation can grow up in control of their brains.
Children who grow up not in control of their brains are susceptible to influence by the most interesting and most promising voice. It is what makes some people give up their lives in suicide bombings, when what is hoped for, has a greater value, than the life they already have.
School shootings, gang violence, and suicides: the crumbling sense of self-importance. These things and many more can be solved by giving the children of today the knowledge to use their brain for more than storage devices, repeating what they learn and living by what they have already lived through.
The reward of doing just this simple thing is far greater than any amount of money can ever replace.
