Document Summary
Historically these models have pitted against each other. Peripheralist: thinks that the feedback you get from your physiological body causes psychological processes: plato (peripheralist): reasoning part (head) responsible for thinking, peripheralist for emotion. Centralist: feedback from your central nervous system (brain) causes your capacity to think or feel emotions: centralist for cognition. Body & brain responsible for distinct processes: heart, vital spirits, brain, marvelous net yields refined animal spirits. Pain, pleasure, and complex emotions result from vibrations in the brain repeated pairings of ice cream & math. Emotional conditioning is a result of fusion: After: co-activation of brain regions that become physiologically fixed due to repeated exposure to two stimuli. According to hartley: pleasure = moderate vibration, pain = excessive vibration, pain is nothing more than pleasure carried beyond its due limit . This necessitates a high-speed overview of brain anatomy: different brain regions = different functions. Forebrain: regulates more complex actions of body; initiates and regulates cognitions & emotions.
