Richard J. Davidson on Mind - Dictionary of Arguments
Corr I 16/17 Mind/Brain/Meditation/Davidson, Richard: Advancement in biomedical technology has made it possible to measure the physical aspects of personality (brain function, biochemical profiles, and so on) with unprecedented detail. With that has come a dizzying parade of advancement in theories that relate personality constructs to the body. Another sort of new measure, this time of the mind, has come with the availability of well-trained meditators from Buddhist culture collaborating with Richard Davidson (2001)(1), leading to research showing the power of the mind (meditation) over the brain (measured by brain imaging techniques). Cloninger: Mind and brain are separate measures in these studies, but the associations challenge our theoretical constructs. Cf. >Method/Philosophy. 1. Davidson, R. J. 2001. Toward a biology of positive affect and compassion, in R. J. Davidson and A. Harrington (eds.), Visions of compassion: Western scientists and Tibetan Buddhists examine human nature, pp. 107–30.
