haha, thats the question that millions of scientists would like to know, and probably hundreds or thousands are working on right now. our understanding of how the brain works is still extremely limited.

The only connection i can see between science and feelings is the chemicals that your body releases, this is something that can be traced by science.  Also brain scans can see levels of emotion or lack of.  There have been interesting studies on neglected children, and when a brain scan was done on these children, levels of brain function directly correlated with lack of response and emotion when stimulated. Also gave comparisons of a normal child's brain scan.\nThere is also a study of convicted murders and their brain scans showed decreased  energy in certain areas of the brain that show empathy, compassion, etc..

I know about the God spots in the brain. At first they thought it was only in the temporal lobe, but  now they found a few other spots in the brain. \n\n     I will have to do some research on the God gene. \n\n A group of neuroscientists at the University of California at San Diego has identified a region of the human brain that appears to be linked to thoughts of spiritual matters and prayer. Their findings tentatively suggest that we as a species are genetically programmed to believe in God.\n\nThe researchers came upon these cerebral revelations in the course of studying the brain patterns of certain people with epilepsy. Epileptics who suffer a particular type of seizure are often intensely religious, and are known to report an unusual number of spiritually-oriented visions and obsessions. Measurements of electrical activity in the brains of test subjects indicated a specific neural center in the temporal lobe that flared up at times when the subjects thought about God. This same area was also a common focal point overloaded with electrical discharges during their epileptic seizures.\n\nCould this heretofore unidentified part of the brain -- nicknamed the "God module" -- actually be some sort of physiological seat of religious belief? The scientists who discovered it believe it might be. They have performed a further study comparing epileptic subjects with different groups of non-epileptics -- a random group of average people, as well as individuals who characterized themselves as extremely religious. The electrical brain activity of the subjects was recorded while they were shown a series of words, and the God module zones of the epileptics and the religious group exhibited similar responses to words involving God and faith. No word yet on whether the brains of atheists and agnostics might flatline the monitors, but the parallel results among the strong believers are considered impressive.

Its been done already!!!! I read a headline about a company (I'm sorry I don't remember which one) that created a robot controlled by brain waves.  WOW!

This is a myth that humans only use '10%' of their brain.\n\nAt any given moment in time, subportions of the brain are activated.  But, over time, all parts of the human brain are activated.  Which parts are activated at any given moment have to do with the functions of those parts of the brain and what associations have been established there.  The brain just isn't wired to have all neurons firing at once.\n\nThe evidence of what parts of the brain fire and when is being accumulated by having people perform specific tasks while having their heads scanned by CAT and PET scanners.  These are creating maps of the activity.

There's the lie detector tests, I suppose. \n\nThere's also methods by which you can measure electrical activity in various parts of the brain. Activity in different parts of the brain correspond to different emotions/feelings/states etc - like fear, arousal, sleep etc. So you could possibly make some kind of inductive reasoning judgements based on that. \n\nBut for exactly what's on their minds - not as far as I know.

1. A memory system using ridiculous associations.\n2. Through hands-on experience.\n3. By attaching an emotion to the information, it attaches in the brain better.

Yes you are correct about the unknown Indian bit!! I haven't heard about either him or the experiment, and I haven't found any one else that has, but I think my 'teleportation' gear is playing up a bit, I'll get it re-tuned and try again later!! I thought teleportation was a means of transferring physical matter almost instantly? Not brain waves!!\nAre you sure your brain waves haven't been transfered??

A mind map (or mind-map) is a diagram used to represent words and ideas linked to and arranged radially around a central key word or idea. It is used to generate, visualize, structure and classify ideas, and as an aid in study, organization, problem solving, and decision making.

Parts of our brain are used for senses. Touch, smell, taste, etc. They map which parts of the brain relate to which, and it makes psychologists and brain surgeons very excited. It's also how foreplay/non-conventional sex can be explained. See, our lips have one of the greatest surface areas on the physical sense brain map, meaning our lips are really sensitive. So are our, well, erogenous zones, genitals and such. So, we put the two sensitive organs together, and it makes everyone happy. Same explination for kissing.

Well, there are CAT Scans where they take pictures of the brain in "slices" and there's an MRI, similar but much more detailed.  CAT Scans are used before MRI's because they are cheaper and Insurance companies insist on it.  And these are the only two ways to do it without cutting the top of your skull off.  I'm not trying to be funny, just stating a fact.

If you are global or visual learner concpet mapping is great for getting the big picture of history. For most global learners, they cannot remember the detail effectively until they have the big picture. It is like building a system of shelves in the mind so you can more easily store and retrive information. \n\nMy kids are using it for their studies with great success, but they are not facing SATs and a tight deadline like you are. But, in the off chance it may help, here are two links that may help you to get started:\n\nsee some examples of history concept maps:\n\nhttp://cmapspublic2.ihmc.us:80/servlet/SBReadResourceServlet?rid=1160861839109_1206028384_10916&partName=htmltext\n\nwhere you can get free concept map software (this is what we are using):\n\nhttp://cmap.ihmc.us/download/index.php\n\nI hope it is of some help.
