I have never really thought about what actual effect it could be having on my except changing my mood, yet your hypothesis implies a long term mental effect, would you say that the stimuli must stay present for such effect to occur but doesnt effect the person when theres no stimuli or is it a prolonged event that continues to give an advantage even when no stimuli is present?
The only problem with your hypothesis is the idea of a single thought following 1 path as 1 electrical impulse, wouldnt it just increase its activity making it develop more allowing for a more rounded thought that takes into account all aspects on the mind? Couldnt such stimuli also have negative effects such as awakening negative emotion in the subject turning a peaceful person into someone with more of a temper for example?
I must admit that I am more innvative while listening to music lol.
