The brain is a unique organ of the human body, it's interaction with the muscles has been an enigma for man-kind. However after millenniums of wondering this connection is slowly being revealed. Involuntarily Smarter? is a experiment that explores the amazing connection between the fields of myology anf neurology. The purpose of the project is to test whether the accuracy and time of data proccessed in the brain differs when a person controls their voluntary actions compared to when they do not control their voluntary actions. The hypothesis for the experimentation is that when people do control their voluntary actions then they have a faster and more accurate analysis on data compared to when they do not control their voluntary actions.
The process for experimentation started when the human subjects were split into a control group and the group being tested also known as the group the chew bubblegum and squeezes a tennis ball. One by one each human subject in the control group is asked to come in. Then the experimenter will basically read off one line of either five or seven words/numbers/letters. The human subject basically repeats what the human subject said, and the experimenter takes note of how many letters/numbers/words the human subject got correct in that line and the time it took (seconds) for them to get that many correct. That process continues for six lines or tests as they are called. Then the human subjects from the other group are called in one by one. Each human subject is given one piece of gum and are told to chew it non-stop and a tennis ball that they must squeeze continuously. Then they are to repeat whatever lines the experimenter tells them to and once again he repeats those six tests and notes down how many they get right and the time it took (seconds) for them to get that right.
The results from the experiment were arranged into averages of each test for each group. So it was easy to compare the following: the average amount of words/letters/numbers each group got right for each test, the average amount of time it took each group to get the amount of words/letters/numbers right again for each test and the amount of words/letters/numbers per second each group could achieve. In the results the group that controlled their voluntary actions took less time to get more right then the group that didn't control their voluntary actions. Then the amount of words/letters/numbers right per second was higher for the group that did control their voluntary actions compared to the group that did not control their voluntary actions. Thus, it can be seen that the hypothesis was correct in this experiment.
