Ready the night and the music. To open 1st 12019 from september 6th to september 29th. This is a smart phone and it is indeed quite smart installs all your contacts helps you navigate through that hot new restaurant and even. Reminds you of your cousins birthday. Wait where was i. Phones and i think osama our topic today on ship. Is the well being tells me i received 84. 00 notifications yesterday and spent exactly 2 hours on my smartphone for which i am gloc that 77. 00 times if i hadnt the activated push notifications my phone would be every minute also as apps for my attention that kept me from. Well cool video but it can also be stressful. And get released with every notification increases muscle stands up its no laughing matter. Favre push notifications they want to maximize the amount of time we spend on them because the more we use those apps the more information on they can collect which they can monetize by advertising youre a scientist heading back from the gritty university frankford explains what effects this has on our brains. This is where distraction happens when i concentrate on one task these brain regions are active. All sensory stimuli are filtered out by this region the socalled. Blocking access but when theres a stimulus thats very different to other stimuli it gets through and distracts. This is what smartphone and App Developers capitalize on they want to create products that permanently grab our attention with push notifications vibrations audio signals and so forth. These are. New stimuli i mean different brain regions are activated and sort of pull power from my ability to concentrate. Suddenly i am no longer focused on my one task because my brain is having to process multiple stimuli and that means i cant devote all my mental resources to fulfilling my original task. Courting to a recent study using smartphones can make us feel more restless normally the more someone performs a certain task the better they can do it and as a result their brain signals become calmer but the opposite is the case for smartphone users the more they use their devices the more erratic their brain activity becomes one possible explanation for this is that smartphone users tend to have several apps or browser windows open at once which can lead to over. Stimulation of the brain. Our brains arent meant for multitasking is when i switch tasks quickly i tend to overlook things and my error rate goes up and while switching tasks my brain also needs a moment to readjust which is another moment when were error prone feed on finishes. The problem isnt technology itself but how we use it. With any how much when we constantly use such devices we get used to being in a state of distraction over time this will lead to it becoming harder for us to focus on and prioritize tasks and that will make us feel stressed and we become more forgetful as well because we cant focus our attention on one thing that also and i also know. But its so darn useful ventile appointment the calendar app wont let you forget navigation apps always know the best route facebook suggests events you might like a recent study indicates people may become mentally lazy the more they rely on best model phones especially those who are more intuitive than analytical they use google instead of their memory some scientists refer to this as the google effect we no longer memorize things because we can find them on google. So. So far researchers have not found any concrete evidence that smartphones alter the way our brains function there are signs that could be impeding our memory and sense of direction. This tendency decision brains tend to adapt to how we use them this applies especially to our memory today we no longer need to memorize as much as in the past and using sat navs means we dont have to rely on our sense of direction in the same way we did say 30 years ago and this all affects our brains. In practice smartphones and apps mean we no longer have to remember jewels addresses and such because out of vices do that for us this means were storing less information but were also practicing the act of memorizing less also has consequences. If i stop committing things to memory i will lose the ability to do so and that means no longer being able to process that information humans do more than just gather relevant information on the internet the difference between us and machines is still that we also have the ability to understand and process stored information to. Our brains are especially good at retaining information particularly well when we can reference where we found it thats easier to do with analog sources than digital ones for example when we read a book we can often remember roughly on which page we came across a certain piece of information but thats not necessarily the case with scrolling through a digital text this impacts our ability to memorize information. Computer computers need to compress data because their Storage Capacity is limited with humans the opposite is true the more contextual information we have about something the easier it is for us to recall it. Some tech experts like nicholas even. Using l. Ability to read and remember long texts its unclear whether thats the case but it is clear that the more information we have memorized the more new information we can add and store away effectively unlike Artificial Intelligence systems we humans are also able to make decisions with very little information. Computer xaviers require lots of data to compare things and detect patterns humans dont miss if we can use one single piece of information to develop an abstract model and apply this to new situations when a sophomore year but. When it comes to creativity ive still got an add on ai theres a study we like those that shows how much nearby smartphones influence us 3 groups were asked to perform a mentally challenging task group one was told to lay their phones on the table face down group 2 was told to leave them in their pockets group 3 left in another room all phones were and silent molt. Which group fear the worst. Exactly the one with their smartphones on the table just wanting to look at the phone is enough to diminish mental capacity and its built into the design. Mechanisms to get. Tech Companies Take advantage of our need. To make their products successful push notifications and social media ensure that we spend as much time as possible with their products because the more we use them the better for the product. Telephones and apps were designed to grab our attention and get us addicted in some way and that sense we cant get away and we get used to them. Even. But they do this randomly its whats called a variable. This is the same mechanism used for gambling and our brain. Every time we get a message or a reaction to one of our posts on social media our brain releases a little dopamine thats the neurotransmitter that makes our whole body feel good as a result we make a habit of reaching for our phone. What we know is that when i get positive reinforcement on social media that affects the regions of my brain that send our ward impulses. Whether im using drugs achieving something or winning the lottery its always the same regions of my brain that light up when im feeling good and these regions are also activated by these apps and likes. We become addicted to them. It seems that varies depending on the person here are the signals to watch out for phantom vibrations people who experience this think they hear the phone vibrating even though it isnt. Another warning signal is the fear of missing out or foma. And nomophobia is the fear of not having your mobile device and being unreachable. I have to admit i know all 3 phenomena even phantom rings the so does that make me an addict not matter of opinion but i know its a good idea to put the phone away now and then i leave my phone at home when i walk with my dog. Digital detox. Doing nothing without interruptions or distractions is beneficial to the brain. Giving the brain small breaks a daily life where you consciously give yourself the opportunity to process what you have lived and seen before the good news is that the brain basically does it by itself it only needs you to not bombarded with new stimuli every minute for. Daydreaming activates a part of the brain that researchers call Default Mode Network previously acquired information is stored stored even reconnected some advice on how to break. Smartphone free space since. Apps that are allowed to send notifications. Which. Said offline times when you. Set your screen to greyscale instead of color that makes it less attractive. Regular exercise helps to reduce stress hormones. People in real life is very. Virtual interactions cannot take the place of real social contacts across. Equally important sufficient sleep this is what the brain needs to store knowledge and clear out junk so to speak so that we can get through the next day able to concentrate without stress. Theres no clear. Digital dementia. When smartphones remember things for us we have room for other stuff.
