When we look at their brain and the same task, we are getting the same behavior that making the same amount of money, we see very little activation in this area.
在进行行为和奖励相同的试验时,我们观察到,他们的大脑在这一区域里很少出现活动。
As we will learn throughout the course, by far the vast majority of what our brains do, the vast majority of what our minds do, is unconscious and we're unaware of it.
正如我们将会在这门课中了解到的,尤其是绝大多数的大脑活动,绝大多数的心理活动,其实都是无意识的,是无法察觉到的。
But what about schizophrenics?
但精神分裂症患者的大脑活动是什么样的?
And you can see this expanding rings of activity of stimulating, Cause a pattern of activities that move forward from the back of the brain to the front of the brain, in a very regular pattern which we call a visual field map.
眼睛在前面,指向这个红点,大家看到,刺激活动不断扩大的环路,引起一个活动的模式,从大脑的后不向前部移动,这一模式十分规律,我们可以称其为视觉分布图。
To some extent, if we put you in an fMRI scanner and observed what you're doing in real time, by looking at the activity patterns in your brain we can tell whether you are thinking about music or thinking about sex.
某种程度来讲,如果我们对你进行,功能性核磁共振成像扫描,观察你的实时活动,通过观察你的大脑活动模式,我们可以看出你是想到了音乐,还是想到了性
Studies using imaging techniques like CAT scans, PET, and fMRI, illustrate that different parts of the brain are active during different parts of mental life.
