The myths of brain!

Then of the interesting presentation about the myths of the brain of Dr. Maldonado and look at material support, I will talk about two myths that caught my attention.
First: “Let’s face it – men and boys just have different brains from women and girls”Many times we wonder why men and women are so different? Why men don’t understand us, and they often don’t understand our way of being? But why we are so different and similar at once?
The male and female brains are functionally and morphologically different. For instance, the male brain is larger and when it comes to language are more strongly activated in females. In the paper is mentioned that the men tend to be more “methodical” and women better communicators, but I think that is in very general terms, at least I always considered myself more methodological and less communicative. Where differences can be shown to exist, they will be small and based on averages.
Second: “Learn while you sleep!”Another myth that caught my attention is “Learn while you sleep! ”, the methods that support this idea proposed that when the information is repeated while the person is sleeping through messages and texts continuously relayed, but even it say that it is more efficient that when done while awake. One suggested that the act of learning always begins with an unconscious process and so it is more efficiently done during sleep. But in summary, no study in learning while sleeping has been able to demonstrate evidence of learning. Consequently, it should conclude that many in the claims abut learning while sleeping are only myths. However recent studies have found that the sleep has different roles in the development of the brain and it is functioning; like that it is beneficial for strengthening skills such as motor learning (memorisation of specific sequences).
