It continues to shape |) itself through life with the most intense growth occurring during childhood. Children are born with many more _ neurons than their mature brain will retain. Through a process called ‘pruning’ the brain actually loses the neural connections that are less used, and forms strong connections in those synaptic circuits that have been utilized || the most. Synaptic connections can form in a matter of hours or days. Experiences particularly in childhood, sculpts the brain. | docsity.com  Of all species, humans take longest for ; our brain to fully mature. Each area of “the brain develops at a different rate during childhood. The onset of puberty 4 marks one of the most sweeping periods —of pruning throughout the brain. While Hine sensory areas mature during early childhood, several brain areas critical for emotional life are among the slowest to mature.

These techniques tell us exactly how this intricate mass of cells operates while we think and feel, imagine and dream. The neurobiological —————————— data lets us understand our behaviour. techniques also allow us to peep into the body and brain resulting in discoveries of more physiological details of how each emotion prepares the body for_a_ different kind of response in case of for example anger, fear, happiness, c J com Our social interactions even play a role our brain — through neurop means _ that repeated experiences sculpt the shape, size_and number of neurons and _ their synaptic connections. In effect, being chronically hurt and angered, or being emotionally nourished by someone we spend time with daily over the course of years can refashion our brain. When someone explodes in anger or eu =a threats, shows disgust or contempt or curses you for no fault of yours — he activates in us circuitry for those very same distressing emotions.
