Scientists working at the Institute of max and Havey University, found out a unique neural mechanism that helps to distinguish the emotions.
Some corresponding process runs fine, but in some cases it can lead to depression. When, for example, congratulations with anything, his emotions are automatically defined as positive. The attack is quite the contrary.
There are situations that carry more complex signals. In such cases, the brain must learn to process the meaning of what happened emotional conflict correctly, otherwise it may lead to aggravation of the situation.
In the study, experts have identified the mechanism responsible for the process of recognition of emotions. Scientists have identified two areas of the brain, acting similar to the “remote control”.
Working together, they are able to determine what value carries one or another the current situation. After this trip or stop completely, the right part of the brain.
During the experiments participants were asked to view emotional scenes from movies. After that MRT was estimated by means of neural signals. The mechanisms identified by experts will help in the future definition of the methodology for the prevention of depression.
