abstract：:In the past, medicine was dominated by acute diseases. Since treatments were unknown to patients they followed their medical doctors´ directives-at least for the duration of the disease. Behavior was thus largely motivated by avoiding expected costs associated with alternative behaviors (I-must). The health challenges...

The patterns of neuronal firing are different during these distinct states. I propose that due to relatively regular firing, the activated states p...
