Peng LiuI have been interested in looking for a language that can descript cognitive processes in the brain. What I have learned so far is there are three cognitive stages in the brain as shown in the below figure. However, I still do not know the following questions:
- Are there other stages we have not discovered (or I do not know)?
- Where is the conciseness functionally located?
- Where is the emotion functionally located?
- What do we mean by “think” in the brain? Is the inference happening there?
- …
I do know a little of many things but many things I do not know yet.
I had been thinking about how to improve critical thinking, which seems really critical for doing research. My questions arise:
How can we improve critical thinking particularly?
Maybe the following Ted talk helps “5 tips to improve your critical thinking“
What are the neural mechanisms underlying critical thinking?
Maybe the following podcast episode helps “Some Neuroscience of Critical Thinking Education“
Unfortunately, I am not satisfied!
