Belgian scientists conducted a study, during which the details of the process of memorizing information at the unconscious level were studied. It turned out that in such conditions, the internal remuneration system helps to memorize information.
His experiment, scientists, representing the Löwensky Catholic University (Belgium), conducted with the involvement of primates - creatures whose relatives were ancestors of a modern person. In the process of research, the monkeys loaded in any difficult task, while, during the test, they were demonstrated the image of a blurred figure or a person's face. It is worth noting that the task was originally selected so that it did not communicate with the recognition of individuals and figures, which predetermined some "distraction" of animals. While the work was carried out, the researchers stimulated the ventral area of the tire at primates. This brain department of the body is the main supplier of dopamine and it is in it that the totality of neural chains that use the mentioned hormone for transporting the signal begins. As a result, it turned out that with simultaneous demonstration of pictures and stimulation of the ventral area of the tire, a good memorization of monkeys of pictures took place. But without stimulation, such details in the "unconscious pictures" eluded from monkeys.
Further, experts scanned the brain of primates to identify more or less active areas, and it turned out that the stimulation of the ventral area of the tire promoted a tangible improvement in the work of visual centers and memory centers. As scientists believe, the network of dopamine signals of the reinforcement system was a stimulant processing and memorization of visual images. Thus, the image "was recorded" in memory even without an application for this conscious effort.
According to the researchers, the sounds can be addressed in the same way, but the main thing - on a similar scenario is not only the body of the monkey, but also a person. Moreover, even their own thoughts that are internal incentives are able to settle in the human brain. However, scientists left such a hypothesis to work up to the following studies. Materials of scientific work were published in the NEURON magazine.
