Sobre la toma de decisiones y el libre albedrío 👇

[CaixaResearch @CaixaResearch]

🧠 Cada día tomas miles de decisiones sin darte cuenta, dentro de tu cerebro hay un “piloto automático”.

¿Sabes cómo funciona? ¿Eres libre o dependes de él?

Joseph Paton, de Champalimaud Foundation, y @pbareaarroyo, de @unisevilla, te lo cuentan:

parents' screen time is more strongly linked to children's vocabulary growth than kids' own screen time.

the more time parents spend on their phones, the slower their children's vocabulary develops.

🧠Gran part del que fas cada dia passa sense que ho pensis conscientment: el teu cervell activa mecanismes automàtics per decidir per tu.

Fins a quin punt arriba aquest control? Quin paper hi juga realment la teva voluntat?

🧠🤔 Cada día tomamos cientos de decisiones, pero ¿sabemos cómo funciona nuestro cerebro y por qué decide lo que decide? ¿Somos realmente libres o dependemos de él?

Descúbrelo en este artículo en el que participa la psicóloga y #becariasfundlacaixa @pbareaarroyo. 👇

Social isolation reduces cognitive function.

Stay connected.

¿Pueden niños autistas mínimamente verbales aprender pictogramas? 🤔

Gema Erena Guardia (Universidad de Sevilla) lo investigó desde la accesibilidad cognitiva. 📊

Resultados: sí son útiles, sí los aprenden y sí los comprenden. 🧩

Large-scale evidence from 53,000 adults across 92 countries: global mental health is mediocre and young adults are the most affected.

[Paula Barea-Arroyo 🔎🧠 @pbareaarroyo]

Results from our study on mental health in 92 countries (n>53,000):
- General low mental health
- Young adults have lowest health, highest illness
- Education linked with significantly better well-being
- Hybrid work > 100% remote or in-person

Un estudio del MIT revela que usar asistentes de IA para escribir reduce la conectividad cerebral y el rendimiento cognitivo en comparación con usar solo el cerebro o Google.

⚠️El uso de IA generaría "deuda cognitiva": un alto costo a largo plazo por usar "atajos mentales" hoy.

It’s a hefty 206-page research paper, and the findings are concerning.

"LLM users consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels"

This study finds LLM dependence weakens the writer’s own neural and linguistic fingerprints. 🤔🤔

Relying only on EEG, text mining, and a cross-over session, the authors show that keeping some AI-free practice time protects memory circuits and encourages richer language even when a tool is later reintroduced.

Complete reversal of spinal cord injury and restoration of walking can be achieved with directed axonal regeneration. Fascinating @ScienceMagazine study showed that guiding transected axons to their natural targets led to full functional recovery, whereas non-targeted axonal regeneration did not.
