:: 2. Knowing (rig) – The mental activity of perceiving cognitive phenomena.
Gaze refers to a child's understanding of the link between mental activity and the physical act of seeing.
Smulevich bases the diagnosis of continuous sluggish schizophrenia, in particular, on appearance and lifestyle and stresses that the forefront in the picture of negative changes is given to the contrast between retaining mental activity (and sometimes quite high capacity for work) and mannerism, unusualness of one's appearance and entire lifestyle.
Our results suggest that neuroprotection in medial temporal lobe may be one mechanism underlying the link between mental activity and lower rates of dementia observed in population-based studies.
Our aim was to therefore assess mental activity in a cohort of healthy older individuals at baseline and compare longitudinal hippocampal and whole brain volumetric change over three years with a view to further understand the link between complex mental activity and dementia risk.
Given the protective association between complex mental activity and hippocampal atrophy was evident using LEQ scores from all three lifestages in combination, lifelong participation in diverse and stimulating mental activities may be required for maximal hippocampal protection.
Because it is not clear how to understand abstract objects being inside God's mind as anything more than a metaphor (which is strictly false), Morris and Menzel make the plausible claim that the relationship between God's mental activity and abstract objects is a causal one.
Evidence of a link between such mental activity and diminished hippocampal atrophy was found, with those with more complex activity backgrounds exhibiting less than half the amount of atrophy than those with less activity.
The straightforward kind of causal connection between mental activity and global warming (or, for that matter, airplanes, books, computers, drycleaners, etc). is evidently not the right kind of mind-dependence that determines the objectivism/non-objectivism divide.
In other words, the fact would become obvious that they have a history, that they are born of specific relationships, of the links which exist between mental activities and material activities; between slavery (a material practice) and skin colour (a mental practice), between domestic exploitation (a material practice) and sex (a mental practice).
