Field Magnetic Magnetic field

In summary, the study found that TMS can disrupt process critical to behaviour we percieve as moral. However, this is still unproven, and more research is needed.

it seems the connection between morality and the rtpj had been established already by other papers. See the references at the end. That's where you'll have to dig for the actual process involved.

I'm on my mobile now, but there were some complaints about the old view of the prefrontal lobe (i skimmed last night)

the descrepincy seems to be comparing negative outcome to negative intention.

i'll have to read more when i have time.

bingo.

What is a magnetic field?

A magnetic field is a region in space where magnetic forces are present. It is created by moving electric charges and can be produced by magnets or electric currents.

How does a magnetic field affect morality?

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that a magnetic field can directly affect a person's morality. However, some studies have shown that exposure to a magnetic field can influence decision-making and emotional responses, which may indirectly impact moral behavior.

Can a magnetic field change a person's moral beliefs?

No, a magnetic field cannot change a person's moral beliefs. Moral beliefs are shaped by a combination of factors such as upbringing, culture, and personal experiences, and cannot be altered by external forces like a magnetic field.

Is there a link between magnetic fields and criminal behavior?

There is currently no scientific evidence to support a direct link between magnetic fields and criminal behavior. Some studies have suggested that exposure to a magnetic field may affect decision-making and impulse control, which could potentially impact criminal behavior, but more research is needed in this area.

Can a magnetic field be used to manipulate or control people's behavior?

No, a magnetic field cannot be used to manipulate or control people's behavior. While exposure to a magnetic field may influence decision-making and emotions, it cannot override a person's free will or force them to behave in a certain way.
