pH of soul: how does acid-base balance affect our cognition?
نویسنده
چکیده
Respiratory Alkalosis due to changes in sympathetic hyperarousal during pathological emotional states can change our cognitive abilities. This occurs through the effects of Alkalosis upon cerebral vasoconstriction and the amount of ionized calcium in the serum. The effects on our cognition and "sense of self " could be considerable.

There is much scope for explorative learning and long-term memory in active teaching process
Introducing RCTM (Research-Centered Teaching Method) by the author showed the method provokes enthusiasm and anxiety, correlated with cognition: Cognition = (0.27) enthusiasm– (0.15) not interested + (0.08) anxiety. “The broaden-and-build theory” (Fredrickson, 2001) posits that positive emotions are useful in several ways. By linking this theory and emotional intelligence theory, it becomes app...

متن کاملDoes intelligence require a body?
Our brain controls our body—every movement we make is guided by neuronal activity. But how about vice versa? Does the body influence our brain; does it have an impact on how we think? This question might seem odd. We usually stick to a simple ‘sense– think–act’ paradigm: we hear the phone ring (sense), we recognize that we should answer it (think) and grab the receiver (act). This is a one-way ...
متن کاملEffect of Intravenously Administered Crystalloid Solutions on Acid‐Base Balance in Domestic Animals
Intravenous fluid therapy can alter plasma acid-base balance. The Stewart approach to acid-base balance is uniquely suited to identify and quantify the effects of the cationic and anionic constituents of crystalloid solutions on plasma pH. The plasma strong ion difference (SID) and weak acid concentrations are similar to those of the administered fluid, more so at higher administration rates an...
متن کاملTemperature and acid-base balance in the American lobster Homarus americanus.
Lobsters (Homarus americanus) in the wild inhabit ocean waters where temperature can vary over a broad range (0-25 degrees C). To examine how environmental thermal variability might affect lobster physiology, we examine the effects of temperature and thermal change on the acid-base status of the lobster hemolymph. Total CO(2), pH, P(CO)2 and HCO(-)(3) were measured in hemolymph sampled from lob...
