Description Assignment Instructions Chapter 2 of the Goleman text describes what happens neurologically when an emotional hijacking takes place. Using Goleman’s text as a guide, describe what happened during your conflict within you personally (the conflict described in the attached file ) from a neurological perspective. Using the Brain Template (also attached ) provide one paragraph for each part of the brain listed, describing what was taking place in your brain during your identified conflict. The exception is for the amygdala, which requires two paragraphs. Amygdala Limbic system Hippocampus Right prefrontal lobe Left prefrontal lobe Neocortex (AKA neocortical area) Thalamus Follow the descriptions used in your texts from this course (as opposed to searches from the internet). Citations are not required for this assignment, as you should only refer to content from the weekly resources. Example: I saw his car pull up to the driveway. The view of the car was received by my thalamus. Here, this information was “translated into the language of the brain” (Goleman, 1995, p. 19). Since there is an emotional tie to that car, the amygdala was activated. Assignment Requirements Citation Requirements: n/a
