Your perception is not always reality | Nikos Konstantinou | TEDxNicosia

  • Our brain constructs and shapes our reality. The importance of previous experiences and context related to how perceptions may be represented.
    Nikos received a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London.
    He currently spends countless hours in the lab designing and running behavioral experiments combined with neuroimaging techniques (e.g. Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging). He is seeking to understand how different types of working memory (for example visual vs. verbal) interact with attention (e.g. our ability to ignore irrelevant distracting information) to give rise to our subjective experience of the world, using healthy populations and patients (e.g. social anxiety/phobia, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s).
    He also teaches courses related to his research interests and supervises students at the graduate and undergraduate level. He is passionate about science communication and thinks that science is incomplete unless properly communicated. For this reason he participated in FameLab 2013 and is currently organizing and participating in various science communication events (such as Café Scientifique).
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Cảm ơn thầy đã đưa thông tin nghiên cứu cách bộ não hoạt động đến với mọi người, nhằm để chúng ta hiểu, thông cảm cho nhau, từ đó mà mối quan hệ con người dễ thương, ngọt ngào, tốt đẹp hơn. Giảm bớt những hiểu lầm không đáng có, giảm bớt sân giận.

    Nice. These perception talks don't get the love they should. They should probably be standard viewing for everyone. Wouldn't hurt.

    Theo tôi, để đưa sự hiểu và thông cảm giữa con người với nhau thêm nữa thì ngoài hiểu về cách não hoạt động như thế này thì còn cần thấy hiểu hơn về môi trường, hoàn cảnh sống của đối phương.
    Nếu với cùng 1 câu chuyện của ngày hôm nay mà 2 người có cách hiểu khác nhau thì ngoài do bộ não mỗi người hoạt động trên chính câu chuyện này thì còn chịu tác động của cả 1 quãng đời trước.

      that's our assumption. proved or not we expect it happen from our past knowledge; differ the variables and everything changes.

    There will still be a lot of people who believe in the fallacy that we humans can multi-task. He distinctly said the brain can only focus the attention on things one at a time.

    This is informative and helped my understanding today. However science is not the only way to gain knowledge. Revelation is an additional form. Spiritual and physical knowledge go hand in hand. One without the other is what is a true misperception.

    • @grg35
      @grg35 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Explain. This seems anecdotal in nature. Divine disclosure isn't based in evidence and can't be measured, thus, isn't a basis for knowledge or truth. Knowledge is justified true belief (mostly). How, without justification, can you say that there is any spiritual knowledge?

    • @sovietbot6708
      @sovietbot6708 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The problem with using revelation as evidence is many contradictory religions use divine revelation, and there's no real why to tell which one is true. Each religion will have its own method, but the method of said religion will only confirm the beliefs of that religion.

      Truth is what you believe. It is that simple, and it’s that complicated. The longer you question, the more you’ll find.

    Thing is... The card trick is BS. He removed all of the cards that were on the previous screen. That in itself was an illusion... by telling us to focus on "one card", we miss looking at the other 5 cards on the screen so when the new screen comes up, we fail to realize that ALL the cards from the previous screen have been removed.

    • @sunshynff
      @sunshynff 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, yeah, that's his whole point, that it's not magic or a mystifying "illusion" it's a trick, that is able to be pulled off as magic due to the scientific fact that our brains can only focus on one thing when time is limited. Even if he would have simply said pick one card and remember it, we wouldn't have had time to see the others long enough to realize we were being tricked.
      That is why if you ask any police detective or trial lawyer, they'll tell you an eye witness to a crime or incident is usually worthless, and any cop or lawyer worth their salt can pick apart their story as inaccurate in just minutes.

    No, our brain does not have the power tol shape our reality. It has the power to form our actuality. Two different words.

    ask yourself - where would the human species be if our sensory perceptions were as poor as this speaker claims - the human species survived for maybe 100,000 years or more!
    ask yourself - how could we talk about objects or sounds external to us - and agree to such an extent about that object - if the speaker were right

    • @thecompanioncube4211
      @thecompanioncube4211 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The power you're missing out on is our power to ask around other human beings whether our perception of reality is the same as what they are perceiving. The collective agreement on what perception is reality is the basis of all the progress that we have made. Coz we asked questions to each other. Many animals have been observed to communicate, many of them have been taught to communicate with us, and NONE of the animals have been observed to ask questions to us or each other

    • @johneyon5257
      @johneyon5257 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@thecompanioncube4211 - the ability to ask if another's perception green is our green has never resolved that ancient issue - and has proved unnecessary - progress continues
      the fact that animals succeed without such communication demonstrates the how unnecessary it is
      we talk to others all day and everyday about local things and events we have in common - we seldom compare our perceptions since successful communication is occurring - no questioning is needed - the incredible success of that by humans has led to immense progress
