Summary
Beware, this is a challenging article… but a fascinating one! It presents research that employed brain imaging to decipher what takes place in our brains when we receive feedback. These studies show how factors such as motivation, attention or expectations influence our ability to take advantage of it—and why certain kinds of feedback are assimilated by their recipient, while others fail to have any effect.
