  2. Constraint-induced movement therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint-induced...

    Determination of the type of restraint used for therapy depends on the required level of safety vs. intensity of therapy. Some restraints restrict the wearer from using their hand and wrist, though allow use of their non-involved upper extremity for protection by extension of their arm in case of loss of balance or falls.

  3. Self-control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-control

    The participants received MRI scans to show brain activity. The results showed that those who exhibited lower levels of self-control had higher brain activity in the ventral striatum, the area that deals with positive rewards. [64] Self-control is negatively correlated with sociotropy [65] which in turn is correlated with depression. [66]

  4. Inhibitory control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhibitory_control

    Inhibitory control, also known as response inhibition, is a cognitive process – and, more specifically, an executive function – that permits an individual to inhibit their impulses and natural, habitual, or dominant behavioral responses to stimuli (a.k.a. prepotent responses) in order to select a more appropriate behavior that is consistent with completing their goals.

  5. Chemical restraint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_restraint

    A chemical restraint is a form of medical restraint in which a drug is used to restrict the freedom or movement of a patient or in some cases to sedate the patient. Chemical restraint is used in emergency, acute, and psychiatric settings to perform surgery or to reduce agitation, aggression or violent behaviours; [a] it may also be used to control or punish unruly behaviours.

    A choke-out is a hand-to-hand combat tactic involving the use of a chokehold to cause syncope, or temporary loss of consciousness, at which point the choke is released.. Common chokeholds in grappling used to accomplish a choke-out include the rear naked choke, arm triangle, triangle choke, and the guil

    An emerging technique called constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is designed to address this. [35] In CIMT, the unaffected limbs are constrained, forcing the individual to learn to use the affected limbs. [35] CIMT promotes increased motor function due to structural plasticity in the brain.

    Fructose is a natural sugar found in fruits, vegetables, and honey. Fructose can be bad for your health when consumed as part of high-fructose corn syrup in processed foods.

  9. Neuroscience of free will - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroscience_of_free_will

    The neuroscience of free will encompasses two main fields of study: volition and agency. Volition, the study of voluntary actions, is difficult to define. [citation needed] If human actions are considered as lying along a spectrum based on conscious involvement in initiating the actions, then reflexes would be on one end, and fully voluntary actions would be on the other.
