*PRINCIPLES*
1. Everything psychological is simultaneously biological
- Psychology has to do with why people do what we do, how we think and why our behaviors and thoughts are the happenings in our body.. By explaining psychology, we also have to consider biology. For examples, when one is excited, sometimes breath faster, why?- simply becuase the heart is beating faster. Without our body, we cannot feel what we feel or do what we do.
2. The nervous system is complexity build from simplicity
- The nervous system consist of neurons (simple nerve cells) which comes together into functioning parts in our body. The simple thing about neuron is that it either fires or it don't. If it fires, there is action potential.
3. The brain is eithersocialized and integrated
- There are two sides of out brain, the left one (in charge of academic) and the right onw (in charge of the artistic ability). Separately, each side can function differently and at the same time, it also works together. For example, when using our left hand, the rigt side is the one at work. When discussing sight, both the right and the left side of the brain are working at the same time.
4. The nervous system is "plastic" especially at early ages of development
- New born babies' brains are at the absorbing stage, it can take in information easier than adults or developed brains. For example, when learning languages, children seem to take in the language much aster than adults. Biologically, it is also proved that children has more neurons than adults but slowly loses it through stages of development.
