1624506099343970304 @WiringTheBrain @LFeldmanBarrett @Nancy_Kanwisher This 👆 But even without that belief (which most don't have), it's the methods and study designs (ROI, thresholding, expertise specialisation) exacerbating the problem. (Then pop science techbro neurohack podcasters run off and make it so much worse... ) 2

1625255581865897998 Three major things most people get wrong about the brain, according to a neuroscientist @LFeldmanBarrett https://t.co/9qamvDZpny via @filth_filler 1
1624566936095846400 As I see it, when it comes to whether or not a given purported cognitive function is "psychological" in the problematic sense @WiringTheBrain and @LFeldmanBarrett are discussing, we need to ask where the concept came from, originally. 1/ 1
1624796871548977152 Another terrific conversation w/ @LFeldmanBarrett She always brings thoughtfulness, elevation, and evidence-based thinking.I enjoyed the whole thing but if your attention span is currently challenged, around the 37 & 49 min marks struck me as the spots w/ something for everyone https://t.co/qTT6wv4SEk 1

1626942103291822080 @Mical04167545 Flip it, learn how healthy brain works. It might help make up for emotional word connection deficit that stymied, short circuits good thinking. @LFeldmanBarrett https://t.co/r4nJ0Sg249 1

1624459356325482496 @LFeldmanBarrett @Nancy_Kanwisher Yes, please. Drifting commitments without acknowledging the drift is an important problem in the debate here. 10

1624489220386574336 @LFeldmanBarrett @Nancy_Kanwisher Well, yes, good. But you could read that as a statement about the inadequacy of "psychological functions" more than the functionality of brain regions or circuits 6
1624489617486409730 @LFeldmanBarrett @Nancy_Kanwisher I agree that individual brain regions or circuits don't carry out high-level "psychological functions" in a dedicated, exclusive, or isolated way. But does anyone think they do? 4
1626734189583208448 @bryan_johnson Yes, we are not experiencing them - we are creating (instantiating) them on-the-fly as it's a method to categorize sensory information with feedback (from body) and feedforward (to body) connections according to @LFeldmanBarrett 3
