Article AnalysisThe article I choose to write my analysis on is about a small study that make up genius differences between genial butterflies and isolated people. A study conducted by Maryann Noonan on 18 people ages 27-70 proposes that parts of your brain may in fact be different depending on how very much you socialize , whether your what some people call a social butterfly or a lone wolf. The researchers asked the people how much they socialized during a time period of 30 days the socialization consisted of anything from phone calls to face to face interactions. They then scanned the brains of the 18 individuals in the experiment flavour for anything that people with similar amounts of socialization had in common. From the brain scans they discovered that in fact three parts of the brain seemed to be bigger, additionally it appeared that those parts were also more strongly connected to other regions of the brain in the people who had more social interactions compared to the people who stayed to themselves. The results that the experimenters found also correlated with a former study done on monkey that had similar results in the brains of monkeys who lied in larger groups. In the end this research may be hard to fully understand, because it is hard to conduct an experiment that follows people from a young age and if their socialization directly effects their brain growth. The results of the experiment are surprising to me and move on me to believe that it is unlikely to have a definitive answer as to how our behavior affects our brain structure, unless an experiment is conduct from the start of someones aboriginal childhood. This article leaves me with a few questions however the first question is do peoples brains make them the per... ...nships. We all know that animals dont discombobulate married but they can still have a life long relationship with another member of their species in which they have offspring and live their wholes lives togeth er. Humans and animals have similar social patterns they just show it in different ways. This can occur because one of the huge differences in humans and animals in that they have different behavior development and evolution. Human behavior is heavily based off of social organization and social interaction. While animals behavior is only slightly based on social influence because their actions are based on instinct and reactions to their environment. From the research I did I found that there are similarities between human and animal socialization patterns, animals may do it in different ways but they are expressing the same social patterns and expressions as humans.
