You Act Before You Decide

in

A psychologist from the University of Memphis, Dr. Rick Dale, has been using the Wii in his latest experiments. He is trying to study the relationship between the mind and the body. The Wii helped him to understand how our brains handle thinking and action, and that the two are intertwined. One thing that he found out was we begin to act before we think.

In this experiment people were asked to use the Wiimote to check if the statement was true or false. They saw that before making up their mind players had a tendency to tale a step thus proving the study.
