When we attend any motivation talk, every body said to us.. learn from our mistake, will make we success more.. its that really true?
According to the research done actually the more right things we do, the better our brain functioning and tuning to perfection… here i extracted from article written by Rachael Rettner, LiveScience Staff:
>>> The research, done on monkeys, suggests that the brain neurons involved in learning may process information more effectively after a success than after a failure, which in turn leads to an improvement in behavior.
>>>The researchers monitored neurons in the monkey’s prefrontal cortex and the basal ganglia – two areas of the brain thought to be involved in learning. They found that neurons in these brain areas are indeed important for learning – they “keep track of recent successes and failures,” said Earl K. Miller, a researcher at MIT’s Picower Institute for Learning and Memory.
>>>But what surprised the researchers was that these neurons actually became more “finely tuned” after a correct response than after an incorrect response, meaning that the neurons were able to better distinguish between the two different associations that the monkey was learning.
>>>“The neurons in these areas improve their tuning, they learn better when the animal had a recent success, versus when the animal had a failure,” Miller said. “When the animal had a failure, there was virtually no change in neural processing, the neurons didn’t improve at all.”
>>>In practical terms, after a success the monkeys were more likely to get an answer correct on the next trial, indicating a link between the improved neuron activity and the animal’s behavior.
So, better prepare to sit before your exam and answer all right and let your brain ‘grow‘ than keep on doing mistake and your brain become ‘smaller‘….
