Networking in psychology refers to the process of building and maintaining social relationships to facilitate personal and professional growth, knowledge exchange, and social support. Networking in psychology is often studied in the context of human behaviour, social interactions, and the development of social and professional support systems, which are crucial for mental well-being and career success.
Neural Darwinism is a principle that, in the development of the nervous system, synapses form haphazardly at first, and then a selection process keeps some and rejects others. Neural Darwinism is Edelman's theory that groups of neurons are in constant competition with one another, each attempting to recruit adjacent neurons to their group and thus perform a particular function.
