While this comment is very well written, I believe the reason you’re not getting a lot of upvotes compared to the other guy is because you didn’t cite a paper, which was the original request.

This sent me on an hour-long scour of a variety of papers, and it ended with me finding one titled “Sexual dimorphism in a neuronal mechanism of spinal hyperexcitability across rodent and human models of pathological pain” by Dedek et al.

In this paper, they take spinal samples from deceased humans and mice and compared sex differences after they doused them in BDNF. They found that the pathway responsible for uptaking BDNF was only active in male samples.

I think you’re extrapolating a little if you’re saying, based on this, that men solely use this pathway for pain and women don’t, but then again, I can’t tell what paper you’re looking at because you never posted it.

TL;DR: what you’re saying about BDNF might be true, but please post sources when making specific claims like that, especially when asked :3

PS your book sounds really interesting

Bro my brain didn’t even register that, it just auto swapped them lol

The two statistics, perceived performance and actual performance, had a much more linear relation that isn’t quite as significant as the above graph makes out

This is what I hate repost bots. Their creators are never sincere

I’m forced to use a Windows laptop for some proprietary software at uni. Since it’s IT-issued, it’s connected to my uni account. This means that it took me a month before I realised my desktop wasn’t in fact my desktop, and just my one drive desktop, with no files actually being saved onto the laptop

So anyway that’s why I have a shotcut to my desktop on my “desktop”, as it’s the fastest way to get there
