Neurophobia is the fear many students experience when faced with the task of learning neuroanatomy. This problem may partly result from the large number of poorly defined structures observed in unstained brain slices. There is little discussion in educational literature regarding the most effective way to learn neuroanatomy. In particular, the effect of increasing the contrast between gray and white matter on student learning has not been examined. We hypothesized that some neurophobia, particular… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
