Analytic Background in the Neuroscience of the Potential Project “Hippocrates”

Abstract

This paper reviews the principles identified in analytic neuroscience that could be used in the setup of an international project, “Hippocrates” (H-project), named after the author of the endocrine theory of temperaments. The H-project can aim to summarize the findings in functional neurochemistry of consistent behavioural patterns (CBPs) in health (such as temperament traits) and psychopathology (symptoms of psychiatric disorders); to have systematically structured neurochemical investigations; to have an analysis of CBPs that include all ranges of behavioural histories and to have these modules complemented by regional contrasts related to climate, diets and other bio-environmental factors. The review highlights the benefits of constructivism and illustrates the contrast between constructivism and current approaches in terms of analytic and methodological aspects. (1) “Where” the neurochemical biomarkers should be measured: the review expands the range of needed measurements to out-of-brain systems, including environmental factors, and explores the concept of Specialized Extended Phenotype. (2) “What” should be measured but is missing: the review points to the need for measurement of the “Throw & Catch” neurochemical relays; behavioural and neuronal events contributing to the consistency of the CBPs but not documented in measurements. (3) Structuring the H-project’s setup: the paper briefly describes a proposed earlier neurochemical framework, Functional Ensemble of Temperament that that accommodates the neurochemical continuum between temperament and symptoms of psychiatric disorders. This framework is in line with documented “Throw & Catch” neurochemical relays and can also be used to organize data about the personal and professional history of an individual.

Comprehensive Evaluation of Online Foreign Language Teaching Satisfaction under the Green and Sustainable Background

“…In constructivism, cooperation, situation, communication and meaning are the main elements of learning [5,6]. With the development of theory, many scholars believe that learning support strategies can be divided into three types [7][8][9]. With the popularization and development of computer technology, the influence of constructivism has become increasingly powerful, mainly because the learning environment advocated by constructivism can be realized through online courses and other network platforms [10,11] .…”
