The rate-accelerated genes have significantly longer gene lengths than the constant-rate genes (Wilcoxon rank sum test; P = 2.5 × 10-4) alsoalongernger than the rate-decelerated genes but not significantly.
As we approach mastery, our learning rate decelerates, and while the ability to do something automatically implies competence, it also means our brains are now producing less of the feel-good neurotransmitters — the thrill ride is over.
As Whitney Johnson and Juan Mendez note, "As we approach mastery, our learning rate decelerates, and while the ability to do something automatically implies competence, it also means our brains are now producing less of the feel-good neurotransmitters — the thrill ride is over".
