Metaphor, Einstein, and Parietal Lobe
The Parietal Lobe is a Powerhouse 🧠and performs some of its most impressive feats of abstract thinking? The parietal lobe is at the heart of it all! From comprehending and creating metaphors to directing spatio-visual attention, the parietal lobe is a multitasking marvel. It plays a crucial role in visuospatial working memory, arithmetic fact retrieval, and even social skills like interpreting emotions and intentions. Recent studies reveal that the parietal lobe’s functions are even more complex and interconnected than we thought. Discover how size differences in the parietal lobe.

    Hi Phil, Thank you for your presentation on Metacognition. Your focus on metacognition shifted toward a behaviorist perspective. Can you consider the viewpoint that Dr. Malcolm S. Knowles was first to consider the use of self-directed learning in adults? Self-directed learning (SDL) is a process through which individuals take the initiative to diagnose their learning needs, formulate goals, identify resources, choose and implement appropriate learning strategies, and evaluate learning outcomes. Malcolm S. Knowles developed the term self-directed learning in 1975. This approach empowers learners to take responsibility for their own education and fosters lifelong learning. Studies suggest that self-directed learning theory has been developed and refined over time, with contributions from various sources including Grow's Staged Self-Directed Learning Model, which is based on Hersey and Blanchard's Situational Leadership model. Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you for introducing so many names with the information you are spreading. Places to go to learn. I want to master myself by belonging where self-bounderies are a given and not violated. I don't want to change anybody else. You are who you surround yourself with. Birds of a feather flock together. If your life is full of conflict, you may have to look for a new social network. Especially when you are attacked for not conforming. The Painted Bird is a novel by Jerzy Kosiński. Although it is fictional in his book, but birds or animals do behave in this manner. "The boy, while in the company of a professional bird catcher, observes how the man took one of his captured birds and painted it several colors. Then he released the bird to fly in search of a flock of its kin, but when the painted bird came upon the flock, they saw it as an intruder and viciously attacked the bird until it fell from the sky.

    What is interesting to point out is the conflict of ideas between Freud and Jung to the point of separation of their personal and professional relationship. I am sorry to say something that I have no university level of study only personal interest, but here I go: after some time and exposure, the area of the brain where we processed the information will be moved where we question things less and don't spend time stopping and contemplating. We regard it irrefutable. This is not the right and left division, but rather moving it to a different structural area. When those areas involve a change of a more complex set of ideas, that change is maybe too much. Certain developments can happen step by step, but huge jumps have to be broken down. The original idea comes from a lecture from Jordan Peterson. (Old recording of him, when he was teaching in Harvard. Not the recent version of him with controversies. ) How integrated our perception of the word is keenly maped by Ken Wilber. It doesn't have to be a whole world view, but to accept one important fact can cause many things to crumble, and those things can be extremely painful. Like when one learns that a person you like perhaps misrepresenting something and they have to reorganize many beliefs that were built on that wrong conclusion.

      Not sure if I am following, so please forgive me if I am off in my response here, but I think things flow from problem solving, metacognition and how we can turn these in on themself to improve learning and education. Mistakes are part of a process, and the sooner we recognize and correct them the better, but recovering after key assumptions and beliefs you have held are shown to be false is real resilience. The truth is something you must work to achieve.

    No contact with narcissistic individuals or systems has been a sensitive issue and debate online. Especially where people with childhood trauma go to listen to experts. The best conflict resolution with certain types of people is walking away if you can or grey-rocking if you must. That is one lesson to learn: you do have the right to walk away from people incapable of respecting personal boundaries. That will help you to have less unnecessary conflict.

      There is definitely a developmental range of metacognitive ability. I think how you measure that range is tricky because there are many dimensions of thinking that express metacognition and there is of course there is disagreement about what to measure. I think a good place to start is with unconscious mentoring and control. As you move in to conscious monitoring and control things become less clear, but a building self-awareness starting with simple self-reference moving through to purposeful self-reflection, self- direction, self-authorship and on the expression of self-transformation.

Because they had access to garbage to eat, they contracted some kind of disease. For reasons I for got, it killed the males high in the hierarchy. (I am not sure about why or was it only males) Sapolsky was so touched by the distraction (and maybe because it messed up the statistical reference), he discontinued the study and left Kenya. The matriarch/s (again not sure plural or singular) took over. The culture of the group was formed by the matriarch/s and it was effecting the new male generation too. The social behavior got much more peaceful. Sapolsky got married and he wanted to show the place/group to his wife. When they arrived, he was very surprised to see the new social behavior. Baboons are inherently aggressive, it is not a local phenomena. These baboons were acting against that genetic disposition. I hope you understand what I am trying to explain. I have to add that I absolutely have no "dream" to see a future where there is no masculinity. At all. Humans have different personalities that are based on different set of hormones and probably regulating circuits are effected too. (I am afraid to go forward, this is your area and I can show my lack of *deep* understanding of the subject) BUT I enjoy that we are not the same. It is lovely as it is. UNTIL we don't hurt or trying to control each other. Until we can live next to each other in peace, we don't have the right to tell others how to live, what to like. Even though I have very hard times being ok with, let's say, hunting, I do understand where it is coming from and why. Can it be done without major suffering? Can it be done with some kind of compassion? These are questions that I have and entertain even though they are very hard for me. Even though I would prefer to see only nice, happy, Bambi movie without the sad parts, I don't think it is possible. Even in "utopia". If I don't want to see some kind of nightmare like dystopia where you have herds of people acting like robots, without any personal identity, without any perks of individuality, I have to accept that opposites exist. I do believe that there are underlying biological causes. It doesn't mean that those opposing trades have to swing into extremes. When they are not in the zone of extremes, we can manage to get along. Even those who are on different sides. You don't have to be best bodies with everyone, but you can respect them if they are acting civil and within normal behavior. If I would like to have a society where we have different types of people, we have to learn how to be together. We have to *understand* how we were "created" and respect our own self and nature as we can respect other people's rights to theirs. As a group, our aim still should be pointing to a society where we support the many, not serving the few.

      If you think about it they monetized social media to subtly influence your behavior. However, if you have a really good sense of self, your beliefs, the factors that shape you, and most importantly how to direct your own learning, then you can use the media for what it was intended for, what we have created is a depressing distortion of something that could be quite good for society if people understood how their own brain worked and how to keep it protected from pollution.

    2:08 Thank you for these videos! They are short and very informative. I hope you will find more subscribers and viewers! (I will comment on them, maybe it will push UA-cam algorithms to come up in searches.)

    2:20 Damn, how much do we need this knowledge looking towards our next election. If we survive it, we should make sure mental health is a priority, so we don't find ourselves in a situation like North Korea. All brainwashed and loving some dear leader. 1:40 it doesn't only happen in North Korea, we are being conditioned to give up our free choice.

    The definition of free will is the ability to control the focus of our attention. Not necessarily what comes into the attention, but free will is the ability to direct the control of our focus in the midst of all that influences it

      I might put more emphasis on choice because it seems to be possible to have the ability to shift or focus attention, but once your attention has the ability to support a choice a potential for a level of free will and self-determination opens. The ability to maintain that focus is part of it, but there is also an awareness of choices.

      @@phulbig I suppose that would be a higher order description of free will. I am attempting to be granular and comprehensive across any situation. It seems more of a matter of terms. One could say there always exists a choice to direct control of your attention. That choice has an infinite array of possibilities - the choice to focus on any thought, or perform any action. We must also clarify the distinction between the terms intention, choice, and decision. I believe free will is required to cross the event horizon of decision, not necessarily intention. It depends on the definition of choice to determine whether this modeling would allow presentation of a choice to be determined by causal factors.

      ⁠@@michaelferketic3540I love how you identified decisions as higher order choices that mark the entrance to a level of free will. The time you manage to stay in that state of decision making seems to be strongly related to levels of metacognitive abstraction that can be reached.

      @@phulbig Yes definitely thank you! And you do put it into good perspective where it's the higher order of decision making that people can use to enrich their lives. Mainly by becoming aware of these functions in order to employ them to our benefit. My content does touch on that definitely but I like to focus (pun intended!) on free will on a more granular level. I have a dual field model approach where we have external and internal fields of attention each with their own focal point and periphery. At any given moment we have what I call a focal energy distribution pattern where we have a certain amount of available focal energy that is allocated and distributed across these fields in proportional manner that of course is context dependent. Like if someone says they want your undivided attention, what they really mean is they want to you to distribute your focus between visual, auditory, and internal channels toward them. In this case "undivided attention" is really still a distribution of focal energy divided and distributed across various channels in both fields, but they are all just directed toward the same source. I hope this example helps explain! But the key concept is the connection with free will in that we have the ability to shift, refocus, reallocate, and redistribute this focal energy across the fields in a way we see fit. That's more of a technical way of saying free will is the ability to control the focus of the attention. It seems your approach is on the higher order employment of free will and the way I describe it is more ground level employment. They compliment each other very well though!
