Yaseer Said Always ask yourself this question before buying anything:
September 3, 2023 “Do I need it? What if I don’t buy this one, and save the
money for any other need?”
You know what is pathetic? Being poor when you're old, and

The temporoparietal junction works in processing and judgments of self and others.
According to some studies, overcoming self–other interference and ToM is a deeply
integrated process. Findings show that simulating others has been shown to influence self-
knowledge. In this simulation, trait and memory measures become similar to a simulated
other after adopting their perspective. Some brain regions are deactivated when trained
actors use the first-person fictional perspective of a character to answer questions. This is in
contrast to a situation when actors answered questions from their own perspective. It
suggests that acting may involve the suppression of self-processing.

According to a recent study, when actors take on a new character, they may be able to
suppress their everyday self. This implies that theatre training may have a big impact on the
fundamental mechanisms of the human brain. Researchers in this study worked in
collaboration with Flute Theatre. They created and delivered interactive productions of
Shakespeare for autistic individuals and their families. They used a series of sensory drama
games, known as the Hunter Heartbeat Method.
The team used wearable brain imaging technologies and physiological measurement devices.
They were first introduced at UCL's Department of Biomedical Engineering. Both devices
were used to evaluate the brain activity of actors as they rehearsed scenes from Shakespeare's
A Midsummer Night's Dream.
The findings showed that when the actors heard their own name during the performance,
their response was suppressed in the left anterior prefrontal cortex of the brain. This is
usually associated with self-awareness. The same result was witnessed consistently in six
actors who were tested when rehearsing several times over a week. Meanwhile, when the
performers were not in acting conditions, they responded normally to hearing their own
name.
According to the lead researcher, this is the first time that neuroscientists have been able to
record brain activity in actors as they perform a role. We hope that this study will help us
understand what theatre training does to the brain and to build new connections between
neuroscientists and theatre professionals.

TEXT 1
An actor creates and performs a character by using cognitive empathy or Theory of Mind
(ToM). It is the ability to represent others’ mental states. ToM plays a critical role in
understanding and navigating social situations. Reflection into the character's mental life
depends on the actor’s approach to character performance. This may be an important part of
the character-creation process. This process involves the exploration of the history,
motivations, beliefs, and values of the character. This exploration often goes well beyond the
information contained within the script. In other words, for many actors, creating a character
involves a complex application of ToM, which includes several brain regions such as the
temporoparietal junction and posterior cingulate/precuneus.
The temporoparietal junction works in processing and judgments of self and others.
According to some studies, overcoming self–other interference and ToM is a deeply
integrated process. Findings show that simulating others has been shown to influence self-
knowledge. In this simulation, trait and memory measures become similar to a simulated
other after adopting their perspective. Some brain regions are deactivated when trained
actors use the first-person fictional perspective of a character to answer questions. This is in
contrast to a situation when actors answered questions from their own perspective. It
suggests that acting may involve the suppression of self-processing.
