Neurobiological Response to Belief-Threatening Stimuli
A neurological study of how subjects with deeply integrated false schemas react when exposed to data that contradicts their core belief structure.
This topic investigates the neurobiology of 'belief protection.' It explores how the brain processes the Powell-Rad Path 'Name the Lie' electrode, measuring physiological stress responses to reality-confrontation.
