English term or phrase: content (Contexto)
Hola! El texto trata las diferencias entre hombres y mujeres con respecto a la sensibilidad, maneras de resolver problemas, etc. Está escrito por un psicólogo. Y "content" aparece por todos lados. Saben si tiene algún meaning particular en psicología? Muchas Gracias!!!
, the hippocampus, the area in the brain primarily responsible for memory, reacts differently to testosterone in men and it reacts differently to changing levels of estrogen and progesterone in women. Women tend to remember or be reminded of different "emotional memories" and """"content"""" to some extent as part of their menstrual cycle.
In both men and women, higher levels of testosterone directly affect the aggressive response and behavior centers of the brain. Increasing estrogen and progesterone in men has a "feminizing" effect. Sexually aggressive males become less focused on sexual aggressive behavior and """"content"""" when they are given female hormones.

En psicología, se utilizan los términos 'contenido manifiesto', 'contenido latente'. Pienso que al decir solamente 'content' se refiere a ambos.

Answer


Explanation:
Good evening. As I read the paragraph you provide, the word "content" is a false cognent. Look at the last line "content"""" when they are given female hormones. It can be read as they feel happy when they are given female hormones. Context can be read as contexto.

Second meaning: Content in some other context of what you are reading it can mean "contenido"; so when it is talking about the menstrual cycle then "contenido" (Content) is applied. So you should you know both meaning of the word. Here are some ways you can look at it:

Contenido : Noun. Content (s). Verb. Hold, contain, include, incorporate, etc.

Content: Adjective. Contento, alegre. Verb. Contentar. S. Contenido.

I hope this helps to apply in a broad sense of the meanings, and how one word is used in different ways.
