Answer 1

Answer:

Since 1960, under the influence of cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive neuroscience, our awareness of ourselves and our environment—our consciousness—has reclaimed its place as an important area of research. After initially claiming consciousness as its area of study in the nineteenth century, psychologists had abandoned it in the first half of the twentieth century, turning instead to the study of observable behavior because they believed consciousness was too difficult to study scientifically. A few examples of when someones body goes in auto pilot could be of the following; negative thoughts about yourself that keep popping up, undesirable habits such as nail biting, sitting on social media too often, and always experiencing certain negative feelings.
