Other researchers have found that the
human brain will “downshift” to more primitive structures when under
stress. Goleman (1995) referred to this as a “neural hijacking.” When
under stress, the brain is programmed to respond in two ways: fight or
flee. In times of perceived or real danger, it makes sense that the
brain would resort to simple, basic patterns of self-preservation;
however when the brain is hijacked, it is at the expense of critical and
careful thought.
