PASSAGETHR£E
Scientists’ have discovered that using a non-invasive method called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to apply a magnetic field to the right Temporo-Parietal Junction (TPJ) of the brain can alter people's moral judgment by 'interfering with brain .activity, Researchers created weal electric currents that Slop brain cells adjacent to TPJ from firing normally for a While, thereby impairing the subjects' ability to make moral judgments that involve an understanding of other peoples ,intentions,
As People are normally very confident and consistent in making moral judgments, it is astonishing.to learn that their ability to do so Can be altered by magnets, When we make' moral judgments about other people, we often need to infer their intentions, which is exactly bow TPJ. functions by gathering the required information from other areas. This ability bas been termed "theory of mind", that is the ability to attribute mental states such OS beliefs, intentions, and other qualities to oneself and .others. in
making judgments, we also assess things like people's previous record. and what constraints they might : be under, We are also guided by Our Own ideas about loyalty, fairness and integrity. In other word" moral judgment is not a single process, but a mixture of "competing and conflicting judgments, all of which get jumbled into what we call moral judgment".
131. In the reported study, electric currents targeted the brain cells……………………. the TPJ.
a. located at the center of
b. located at the. outer layers of
c. far away from
d. neighboring
132. According to the writer. the results of the present research are unexpected due to the following characteristics of judgments on morality:
a. doubt and fairness
b. constancy and suspicion
c. fairness and integrity
d assurance and steadiness
133. According to the passage, moral judgment is a ……………………..phenomenon.
a, multifaceted
b. unitary
c. multipurpose
d. unilateral
134.. The reported study's method was meant to _......................._ ~ .. '
a, prevent bruin cells around TPJ from functioning correctly
b. prevent TPJ from processing the information received from other parts of the brain
c. change some of the information that would help TPJ in making judgments
d. finding out what specific areas of the brain are involved in moral judgment
135. "Theory 0f mind is based on………………
a. the magnetic fields of the earth
b. straightforward conclusions
c - consistent expectations
d. complex inferences
