Googling activity may help perpetuate the sharpness of mind of its users, said UCLA researchers, the United States (U.S.) yesterday.
Researchers at the University of California Los Angeles review their investigations web while their brain activity recorded by MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging).
Research shows, surf in the virtual world can stabilize the nervous system performance in the brain. 50 percent of the amount that is a person who has experience playing the internet.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a technique used to produce images of organs in the living organism and also to find the amount of water content in the geological structure.
Researchers conducting electronic brain MRI examination on 24 volunteers between the ages of 57 to 76. Among them experience the Internet.
"They are experienced in Internet use more brain activity when doing research," said Dr. Gary Small, aging specialist at UCLA. "What we see is the brain that people often surf in the virtual world to work more, and it allows the brain to stay active and healthy," added Gary.
According to Small, studies conducted earlier have proved each game that requires a challenge as Puzzle can help the performance of functions of the brain, but there has been no research to prove that if the Internet can do the same.
"This study is the first study that simulate the performance of the brain while playing the internet," said Small.
