Brain patterns in Internet users...
In development, you know, we have good evidence that things do wire differently depending upon environmental influences, and definitely there's evidence now against the old theory that adult's brains don't change, but definitely after brain injury there's been evidence of re-wiring or re-mapping brain regions to overcome deficits. We don't know what's happening here. This is a very preliminary study, but one interpretation could be that there was a re-wiring, as people practice on the internet that these areas become more active. But all we can really say is that the pattern of activity is different. --Teena Moody
