摘要: Is our attitude to money like that any other tool even though its use is symbolic and not implemented in physical structure? Knowledge of the functional concrete tools, such as hammers or screwdrivers, has been associated with activation a left hemisphere network including posterior temporal cortex, supramarginal gyrus, inferior parietal lobule, lateral precuneus. Here we demonstrate observing bank notes being cut up torn, critical violation their function, elicits within same temporo-parietal network. Moreover, this greater higher value banknote. This lends plausibility genuinely psychological interpretation explanation for parametrically symbolizing exchange.
