1. The somatic hypothesis states that when we are unclear of which option is the correct one to take, our reasoning is insufficient and out emotions take over. 'High reason' decision-making is based on having a lot of logical considerations without letting emotion get involved in the process.
2. Myelin connects the frontal lobe to the rest of their brain, and since teenagers do not have enough of myelin, the communication between one part of the brain and another is poor. Teenagers access the frontal lobe more slowly, making their split-second decisions worse than if they were older.
3. The role of the cerebellum in the decision-making process is to coordinate the thinking process. If it's not fully developed, then one can be "mentally clumsy".
4.The role of socializing with a baby in moral development is that it shows babies how to feel emotions. It also shows babies what is morally right and morally wrong.
5. When making a decision and taking action, I personally believe as long as no one gets hurt in any way and futures are not ruined, then the benefits outweigh the costs. An example of when it wouldn't would be when someone does drugs. The few moments of happiness from the drugs do not outweigh the cost of doing them, which can fatally or otherwise your life. An example of when the benefits would outweigh the cost would be deciding to study longer for a test. Sure, the cost would be a lot of stress and some tiredness, but the benefit of getting that A outweighs the feeling of being tired.
