У людей, чрезмерно увлечённых совре

У людей, чрезмерно увлечённых современной медиа-электроникой, в некоторых областях мозга уменьшается количество серого вещества.

Трудно представить современную жизнь без ноутбуков, смартфонов, планшетов, но чрезмерно увлекаться ими не стоит – исследователи из Университета Сассекса и Университетского колледжа Лондона (Великобритания) выяснили, что частое использование таких устройств сопровождается уменьшением количества серого вещества в мозге.

В эксперименте участвовали 75 человек, которые должны были ответить, как сильно они зависят от различных медиа-устройств, начиная от мобильных телефонов и компьютеров и заканчивая телевизором (кроме того, в опросник были включены также печатные издания). Результаты опроса совместили с результатами фМРТ мозга, и оказалось, что у тех, кто больше всего пользуется медиа-электроникой, меньше серого вещества в одной из зон мозга. Эта зона называется передней поясной корой, участвует в выполнении когнитивных задач и помогает контролировать эмоции. Результаты исследований опубликованы в PLoS ONE.

То, что мозг может меняться под действием условий среды, уже давно не новость. В зависимости от того, какие задачи приходится выполнять человеку, нейронные цепочки перестраиваются, нейроны формируют новые отростки и соединения, что может вести к довольно масштабным изменениям в структуре мозга: один из самых известных примеров – увеличение гиппокампа у лондонских таксистов, которым нужно держать в уме подробную карту города. Понятно, что для мозговых изменений влияние среды должно быть сильным и стабильным, но ведь всевозможные гаджеты как раз и обеспечивают такое сильное и стабильное влияние – вряд ли сейчас можно найти такого человека, который не знал бы, что такое компьютер или мобильный телефон.

Однако если у таксистов серого вещества прибывало, то в случае гаджетов его, наоборот, убывает. Виноваты здесь, очевидно, не сами гаджеты, а рассосредоточенность внимания, которой они способствуют. Человек может одновременно смотреть фильм на экране планшета и о чём-то говорить в чате на смартфоне, и, хотя для этого есть красивое выражение «медийная многозадачность», такая многозадачность ослабляет способность концентрироваться на чём-то одном, повышает отвлекаемость и даже может провоцировать эмоциональные проблемы, приводящие к хронической тревожности и депрессии. Психологические исследования здесь ведутся давно, и вот сейчас, по-видимому, результаты таких работ получили нейробиологические доказательства.

Однако стоит заметить, что авторам работы удалось лишь обнаружить корреляцию между увлечением гаджетами и особенностями строения мозга. О причинно-следственной связи здесь говорить пока рано. Конечно, сам собой напрашивается вывод, что именно устройства вызвали перестройку серого вещества, но ведь может быть и так, что люди с некоторыми особенностями поясной коры тянутся к разнообразным устройствам – в таком случае гипертрофированная увлечённость медиа-электроникой будет следствием. Так что корректный ответ на вопрос «влияют ли гаджеты на наш мозг?» мы получим только после дальнейших исследований на эту тему.

People too caught up in modern Media Technology, in some Areas of the Brain decreases the amount of gray matter. It is Difficult to imagine modern Life without Laptops, smartphones, Tablets, But They Should not Get Carried away with overly-Researchers from the University of Sussex and University College London (United Kingdom) found That the frequent use of such Devices is Accompanied by A Decrease in gray matter in the Brain. Were In the experiment 75 people who had to answer how much they depend on the various media devices, ranging from mobile phones and Computers to A TV (in addition, the questionnaire included Also printings). The survey results Were Combined with the results of fMRI Brain, and it Turned out That Those WHO use Media Technology, Grey matter less in one of the Areas of the Brain. This area is the anterior cingulate Called Cortex, participates in the Implementation of Cognitive tasks and helps to control emotions. Results of research published in PLoS ONE. What the Brain can Change Under the Influence of Environmental conditions, is not news . Depending on what tasks you have to Perform the person Neural Chain are rebuilt, New neurons form offshoots, and Compounds That can Lead to quite large-scale changes in the structure of the Brain: one of the Best known examples is the Increase of the Hippocampus from the London taxi Drivers WHO need to Keep in mind A Detailed Map city. It is clear That Brain changes impact the Environment has to be strong and STABLE, But all Sorts of Gadgets just make such A strong and STABLE Influence-we can Hardly Find A such person, WHO does not know what A computer or mobile Phone. HOWEVER, if the taxi Drivers of Grey matter Were coming, the Gadgets it, on the contrary, decreases. The fault here is not Obviously the Gadgets, and rassosredotočennost ' Attention to Which They Contribute. People can simultaneously watch the Movie on the screen of the Tablet and Talk About something in A Chat on the Phone, and while there are A beautiful Expression of "Media multitasking", this multi-tasking ability to concentrate on something one Increases the distractibility and May Provoke even emotional problems That Lead to chronic anxiety and depression. Psychological Studies here are A Long time ago, and now, Apparently, the results of These works Received nejrobiologičeskie Proofs. HOWEVER, it is Worth Noting That the authors of the work, Only to Discover A Correlation Between FAD Gadgets and features of the structure of the Brain. On the causation here so far. Of course, the Conclusion That is the Devices Caused A restructuring of the Grey matter, But it May be That people with some features of the cingulate Cortex are reaching out to A variety of Devices-in this Case of Hypertrophic Passion Media Electronics will Result. So the correct answer to the question "Whether the Gadgets on our Brain?" Only After we Get Further research on the topic.

People overly keen on modern electronic media, in some areas of the brain reduces the amount of gray matter. 's hard to imagine modern life without laptops, smartphones, tablets, but overly addicted to them it is not necessary - researchers at the University of Sussex and University College London (UK) found that the frequent use of these products is accompanied by a decrease in the amount of gray matter in the brain. The experiment involved 75 people who had to answer how much they depend on a variety of media devices ranging from mobile phones and computers to a TV (in addition to the questionnaire were also includes prints). Results of the survey combined with the results of fMRI brain, and found that those who most enjoys media electronics, less gray matter in one of the areas of the brain. This zone is called the anterior cingulate cortex is involved in the performance of cognitive tasks and helps control emotions. The results were published in PLoS ONE. fact that the brain can change under the influence of environmental conditions, is not a novelty. Depending on what tasks are given to a person, neural chains are rebuilt, neurons form new processes and compounds that can lead to a rather large-scale changes in the structure of the brain, one of the most famous examples - the increase in the hippocampus in London taxi drivers, who need to keep in mind detailed map of the city. It is clear that the brain changes influence of the environment must be strong and stable, but in fact all sorts of gadgets just provide a strong and stable influence - hardly possible now to find a man who does not know what a computer or mobile phone. However, if taxi drivers coming gray matter, in the case of his gadgets, on the contrary, decreases. Blame here, obviously, not the gadgets, and the allocated attention, which they contribute. A person can simultaneously watch a movie on the tablet screen and something to say in the chat on a smartphone, and although it is a beautiful expression of "in media multitasking" such multitasking impairs the ability to concentrate on something one increases distractibility and may even provoke emotional problems leading to chronic anxiety and depression. Psychological research conducted here for a long time, and now, apparently, the results of such work got neurobiological evidence. However, it should be noted that the authors were able to detect a correlation between fad gadgets and structural features of the brain. On the causal relationship here too early to say. Of course, the conclusion suggests itself that this device caused the restructuring of the gray matter, but in fact it may well be that people with certain features cingulate cortex extend to a variety of devices - in this case, exaggerated enthusiasm for electronic media will be the consequence. So the correct answer to the question "Do the gadgets in our brain?" We get only after further research on this topic.
