On a neurological level, how do brains learn?
Like, how do neurons firing translate to neurons linking?

Ever seen your brains? That's what I thought.

neurons that fire together wire together -some brain guy
neurons that fire repeatedly together get used to each other or something, look up the quote im not a fucking neuronerd

synaptic plasticity and long-term potentiation

Nobody knows.

The whole chemical environment of the brain is moving so fast that thinking and learning occurs seamlessly when observed by the host. The first question OP is asking is actually REALLY complicated but a good question.
Neurology from a cognitive study actually isn't a discipline in physical neurology so much as it is a discipline in psychology.
It will be eventually but the imaging technology isn't at a point where a single neuron or cluster of neurons can be observed to the capacity required to answer this question scientifically.
We can see very large parts of the brain lighting up but that isn't enough at this time describe how neurons work with as much authority as we can describe heart cells.

It's sort of like fitting a curve to a data set, but instead of a curve it's how to think and instead of number data it's all your senses, all the time.

I am, wrote an extensive paper on BCI devices last semester. The medical policies pertaining to neurology change more often than anything else in the medical field. In a lot of way Neurology is not a scientific science. The brain is incredibly difficult to observe so scientifically proving any aspect of any structure and it's functions are made very difficult.
Parker Russell
Exactly! Furthermore the non-invasive techniques for obtaining the data aren't very good.
Caleb Allen
those are actually common and well defined technical terms every neuro researcher uses

Actually it's REALLY simple. If anything the answer can be complicated.

- When human feels pain/suffering, body releases hormones that circulate in the body for 15 minutes to 4 days OR brains release electrical impulses that persist for few minutes to few hours. These are often interpreted as "mood", but they can be called "acclimatization level". There is equivalent system for "pleasure" too, and the division of systems is more complex than just "pain" vs "pleasure".
1. Brain makes random connection between two neurons.
2. If organisms mood gets worse within short time, it breaks the connection. If better, it reinforces it.
That's one mechanism.

Even if they are they don't bring us any closer to answering OP's question. Completely meaningless.

So does this mean if you're in a bad mood while studying, you won't learn as well? Is it true listening to music while studying interferes with your ability to retain information?
Angel Myers
only because you don't know what they are
Dominic Allen
So, it's equivalent to a simplistic evolution algorithm?
That sucks.
Gavin Torres
its analogous to the well trodden path becoming a paved road and then a motorway
of course i have no idea what the human labour or the management and intent of that labour maps to in this analogy but it seems to be the trivial part of the question anyway

>difficult to observe means difficult to prove scientifically
for your definition QM is not a "scientific science.

But there is also negative reinforcement.
