daralynwen19 on 23 Aug 18There are two neural mechanisms that scientists believe enable us to communicate. One is that sound waves made by the speaker affects how the listener's brain responds, which is basically the same way the speaker's brain is responding. The other is that human brains have formed a common neural behavior which makes our brains respond in the same type of pattern, allowing us to share information through this neural behavior. One of the experiments discussed in this article explains that people were brought in and scanned by fMRI machines, monitoring the part of the brain that processes sound waves coming from the ear. These subjects were monitored while they were at rest, telling a story, and/or listening to a story. It then discusses the results and results of similar experiments.
