The Pathways of Mind
A Neural Theory of Mental Processing Mathematical Principles, Empirical Evidence, and Clinical Applications
Authors
More about the book
Focusing on the intersection of neuroscience and mathematics, the work explores the stimulus-response task as a measurable phenomenon in the brain. It highlights the historical context of reaction time studies and their mathematical modeling, particularly through logarithmic functions. The introduction of computers revolutionized the investigation of neural structures related to these tasks, allowing for extensive data collection and statistical evaluation. This technological advancement enabled a deeper understanding of reaction times as quantifiable sequences, revealing insights into the underlying neural mechanisms.
