>>16857077Good thing I'm 34 so I can't passively brainwash myself with this doomer nonsense the way young lads like you do when they trust the science.
>>16857077>she was only 31 you sick pedo fuck
>>16857097or, even worse>age of consent should clearly be nine
>>16857097Intelligence mainly applies to men.
>>16857097Women peak at 11, after that is downhill for their brains.
>>16857078Seems nonsensical. NINE to 32, with no further divides between? And our brains are not stable from 32 to 66, people on the older end of that are already markedly slower and dumber than people in their prime.
>>16857078wow my first instinct is to reject this data as worthless because the people behind are clowns that know nothing at all>when little kids play their brains are soft!!>we put people in school for 20 years and at this time COINCIDENTALLY brains are their most dynamic!>once people leave school and find their career they coincidentally happen to "plateau in intelligence and personality"! isn't this fascinating!!!this is just the fucking neuroscience equivalent of fuckhead that noticed arrests were lower when crime was lower and concluded that less arrests would lead to lower crime
>>16857177couls probably do a dozen these studies and they all say different fings because like method bullshit and lack of statostical powrr which must be inevitable in studies like this. n looked but must be not a lot of peoplejust exaggeration. likeofc your brain garn be changing all way through your life
like its so arbitrary to say that if your brain must be still becoming m9re efficient, this should be labelled as "adolescent" horrific bullshitjusr authorz looking to clickbait their study
>>16857179it's probably true that there is a period where plasticity is higher than the rest of your life. how meaningful this actually is though? i doubt it amounts to much.
>>16857193Neuroplasticity is seen as the key to learning but as the case often is with intellectuals the cause and effect are backwards
>>16857078I hope I die before I get old
>>16857077explain to me why 18 year olds get to vote?
>>16857179Considering that neuroscience has propagated the false notion for 50 years or so that the brain can't generate new neurons, I'm inclined to believe that modern-day neurology has no understanding of the brain beyond what any 1900 neuropathologist could have told you.
>>16857077>I'm still adolescent at 30I have to show this study to my parents.
>>16857077Threadly reminder: Psychology is pseudo science, psychometrics are like scientology metrics and require trained initiates in addition to the instrumentation to make valid measurements just like e-meters need to be read by a licensed auditor to "make sense".
>>16857078Wake up /sci/, new pedo cope just dropped
Might get to regret this but - I'm part of the research group this comes from. Super fun seeing it explode this much, reaching even the depths of this cavity. Not going to pull Lexie down here, but if you have some questions about the work (or even neuroscience more broadly), I might be able to answer.To preserve my sanity, I will respond only to people directly asking me, rather than some of the hot takes that I already see here.
>>16857402When did you, user Lab Member on 4chan board /sci/, first realize you were attracted to minors?
>>16857402Why spread pseudoscience, why couldn't you get a real job in an actual scientific discipline instead of trying to exploit people's irrationality?
>>16857258because the illusion of democracy isnt set up for your benefit
>>16857258just as good of a question is why are over 60s allowed to run for public office

>>16857402Favourite Kamen Rider series?
>>16857402Tits or ass?
>>16857455Feminine benis
Ah, never disappoint, 4chan. >>16857405When I was a minor.>>16857409My puzzle of interest is the human mind, and this is as rigorous as one gets in its study. I assume you don't realise the amount of math and physics (the only actual scientific disciplines, right?) that goes into this type of research. >>16857450Never watched/read it.>>16857455Both, but if I had to choose only one, ass.
>>16858036If it were so rigorously understood, it wouldn't still be a puzzle, though, you could actually have something to point to and machines could analyze it without needing people like you inserting your opinions to finalize the results.
>>16857475ain't got nothing on the masculine clit
>>16858036>I assume you don't realise the amount of math and physics (the only actual scientific disciplines, right?) that goes into this type of research. It's irrelevant how much math went into this. It's an argument no worse or better than stating that a lot of linguistics went into some elaborate sociological theory only for that theory to fail in reality.The real problem I see is that these brain studies, which obviously appeal to the feebleminded via a mis-identification of the brain with oneself, will inevitably feed into the cultural trend to arbitrarily restrict rights to young adults based on notions that their brains haven't "finished developing".
>>16857077>If you are attracted to woman younger then 32 you are a pedophile
>>16857077selecting people for high school at 14 years old now seems pretty unfair... didn't another study show that IQ isn't stable until around 20?
>>16857169or more accurately, they stay mentally 11 years old until 66, then decline.
>>16858036>I assume you don't realise the amount of math and physics (the only actual scientific disciplines, right?) that goes into this type of research. Let me guess, you reinvented the trapezoidal integration method for the third time
>>16857402dunno if you're still doing this, but what's your life usually like as a neuroscientist? i'm an undergrad studying cognitive science right now, and i'm a bit anxious about my future. well, i get that's a pretty immature view right now since i'm pretty young and i haven't even started grad school, but i'm curious anywayso i'm curious, what's your daily life actually like? i've obviously heard a lot from my own professors. guys that travel a lot, talk a lot, but i wanna know what your life is like. is it really just research for the rest of life? are you planning to be a professor too? what else do you do? any other cool studies you've done (other than this)? sorry if it's a bit much, but again, i'm a bit anxious about what life's going to be like once i'm done with my studiesoh, and nice work on the study!
>>16857077Makes senseThat's why in ancient Athens you only got to vote after 30They should change age of legal adulthood to 32
>>16857227Too late
>>16859657That wasn't the only restriction.You had to be qualified like owning property
>>16857077All brain studies are worthless because non-reproductible.
>>16859657It makes sense, now that I'm 27 I find it baffling that 18 is the age of majority, it's insane, it should be much later, but it's not that we as a society care about anything other than "what's the economic impact of that?" so it's a pointless discussion, keep in mind I'm talking about legal majority, don't care about sex crap.
>>16858039Oh, it is far from being understood. It is the most complex system within the known universe, and understanding it is one of humanity's great frontiers. Do point me to a scientific discipline that is at this point fully automated. Results are understood from the perspective of what is known, and the old and new are interfaced in the mind of the researcher. For now at least - I do see AI eventually taking on that role as well.>>16858509Can you distinguish pseudo and real science for me? My own separation would hinge on the methods that they use. When studying complex systems, whether these are human brains or societies, the search space is vast and even with the best methods there will be a lot of erroneous paths which have to be walked for a while before they are recognised as such. That doesn’t mean that the whole endeavour shouldn’t be undertaken though - it just means that people need to be aware of the limitations. When findings get blown out of proportion, it is mostly due to laymen making them to be more than they are, not the scientist claiming they have finally “solved” the brain.>mis-identification of the brain with oneselfCan you elaborate upon this? >>16859105Not sure how that would be necessary. But, as a simple example - artificial neural networks? Yup, those stem right out of neuroscientific research. Hey, I am not saying that all of us are doing theoretical mathematics for breakfast and engineering new methods for the rest of the day. But we do deal with more maths than most of the population (even the scientific population I would say).
>>16857077How long until it ferments into worcestershire sauce?
>>16857402What's your advice for a TBIlet (contused prefrontal, since 9th grade) in his late 20's, who's still emotionally attached to the idea of getting an engineering degree? What steps should I take to mitigate the effects? What kind of lifestyle/s should I embrace and avoid? Supposing I have half a decade left of the adolescent phase.
>>16858892Women are anon??I.. didn't know..
>>16861089>as a simple example - artificial neural networks? Yup, those stem right out of neuroscientific research.The same way Flat Earth models "stem right out of" astronomical observations.
>>16857107I could easily see Muslims arguing as such>See? Science proves the Qur'an again!
>>16857077A lot of uncs itt feel uncomfortable about this, but it's not a bad thing. Only kids and adolescents have potential. By the time you're in your early 30s, you need to turn that potential into something tangible. You can't just infinitely farm potential and then turtle your way through the rest of your life. You can stop farming now and progress instead. You'll be fine.
