What Did Mary Know? | Issue 99. Your complimentary articles You’ve read one of your four complimentary articles for this month. You can read four articles free per month. To have complete access to the thousands of philosophy articles on this site, please Articles Marina Gerner on a thought experiment about consciousness. Imagine a girl called Mary.

One day, Mary escapes her monochrome room, and as she walks through the grey city streets, she sees a red apple for the first time. What changes upon Mary’s encounter with the red apple? You might say, “Hang on a minute, how was it possible that Mary grew up in a black and white room in the first place?” Reinvigorating The Debate The reason Professor Jackson devised the thought experiment involving Mary was to challenge the physicalist school of thought. Jackson’s thought-experiment about Mary challenges physicalism in the following way. What is it like to imagine yourself to be a bat? Jackson was not the first to challenge physicalism over the question of consciousness. What Is the Tetris Effect? Tetris is a classic game that almost all of us have enjoyed in one form or another at some point in our lives.

But is it really enough of a craze to have a whole psychological effect named after it? Well apparently yes, allow me to introduce: the Tetris effect! What Is the Tetris Effect? So what exactly is this effect, and what does Tetris have to tell us about the human mind? If you play enough Tetris though then it won't stop there either. But the Tetris effect doesn't only apply to people who play Tetris. For instance you might find yourself looking at stacks in a supermarket and wondering precisely where you need to fire an angry bird in order to knock them down. And of course it's not just computer games either. Explanation So what is this behaviour? What's going on then instead is that the brain is 'practicing' the skills that it thinks it is likely to need during the day. HyperPhysics. US Grand Lodge, OTO: Main page. HyperPhysics Concepts. About HyperPhysics Rationale for Development HyperPhysics is an exploration environment for concepts in physics which employs concept maps and other linking strategies to facilitate smooth navigation.

For the most part, it is laid out in small segments or "cards", true to its original development in HyperCard. The entire environment is interconnected with thousands of links, reminiscent of a neural network. The bottom bar of each card contains links to major concept maps for divisions of physics, plus a "go back" feature to allow you to retrace the path of an exploration. The side bar contains a link to the extensive Index, which itself is composed of active links.

Part of the intent for this exploration environment is to provide many opportunities for numerical exploration in the form of active formuli and standard problems implemented in Javascript. New content for HyperPhysics will be posted as it is developed. Please respect the Copyright HyperPhysics (©C.R. Availability on DVD or CD. HyperPhysics Search Utility. Athene's Theory of Everything.

Every animal you can think of -- mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, amphibians -- has a brain. But the human brain is unique. Although it's not the largest, it gives us the power to speak, imagine and problem solve.

It is truly an amazing organ. The brain performs an incredible number of tasks including the following: It controls body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate and breathing.It accepts a flood of information about the world around you from your various senses (seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching).It handles your physical movement when walking, talking, standing or sitting.It lets you think, dream, reason and experience emotions.

All of these tasks are coordinated, controlled and regulated by an organ that is about the size of a small head of cauliflower. Your brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves make up a complex, integrated information-processing and control system known as your central nervous system.

We scientifically tested and re-tested about 30 brand new and some old experiments of mind control and persuasion at Influence: Boot Camp.. Many of the tests and experiments we did are based upon mentalism illusions I often use to open up a presentation. They captivate immediately. People are fascinated when you can read their minds, tell them what happened in their past...with precision. And they literally think that psychic powers are possible because Kevin has them...

(but I don't - no more than you do!). You can't control something if you don't know what it is or how it works or what it's doing. Pat D. is a real estate trainer who works on the east coast.

First published Thu Sep 4, 2008; substantive revision Wed Aug 14, 2013 Intuitionism is a philosophy of mathematics that was introduced by the Dutch mathematician L.E.J. Brouwer (1881–1966). Intuitionism is based on the idea that mathematics is a creation of the mind. The truth of a mathematical statement can only be conceived via a mental construction that proves it to be true, and the communication between mathematicians only serves as a means to create the same mental process in different minds. This view on mathematics has far reaching implications for the daily practice of mathematics, one of its consequences being that the principle of the excluded middle, (A ∨ ¬A), is no longer valid. Indeed, there are propositions, like the Riemann hypothesis, for which there exists currently neither a proof of the statement nor of its negation.

Brouwer devoted a large part of his life to the development of mathematics on this new basis. 1. 2. 2.1 The two acts of intuitionism ∃α(A ↔ ∃n α(n) = 1). Psst! The Human Brain Is Wired For Gossip. Hide captionLearning juicy details about someone can change the way you see them — literally, according to a new study. August Darwell/Getty Images Hearing gossip about people can change the way you see them — literally.

Negative gossip actually alters the way our visual system responds to a particular face, according to a study published online by the journal Science. The findings suggest that the human brain is wired to respond to gossip, researchers say. "Gossip is helping you to predict who is friend and who is foe," says Lisa Feldman Barrett, distinguished professor of psychology at Northeastern University and an author of the study. Barrett is part of a team that has been studying how gossip affects not just what we know about an unfamiliar person but how we feel about them. But Barrett and her team wanted to answer another question: Once hearsay has predisposed us to see someone in a certain way, is it possible that we literally see them differently?

Science/AAAS. Decision theory. Normative and descriptive decision theory[edit] Since people usually do not behave in ways consistent with axiomatic rules, often their own, leading to violations of optimality, there is a related area of study, called a positive or descriptive discipline, attempting to describe what people will actually do. Since the normative, optimal decision often creates hypotheses for testing against actual behaviour, the two fields are closely linked.

Furthermore it is possible to relax the assumptions of perfect information, rationality and so forth in various ways, and produce a series of different prescriptions or predictions about behaviour, allowing for further tests of the kind of decision-making that occurs in practice. In recent decades, there has been increasing interest in what is sometimes called 'behavioral decision theory' and this has contributed to a re-evaluation of what rational decision-making requires.[1] What kinds of decisions need a theory?

NEOINTUITIONISM: THE NEGLECTED MORAL REALISM - Burton - 2010 - The Southern Journal of Philosophy. Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Model of personality types A chart with descriptions of each Myers–Briggs personality type and the four dichotomies central to the theory. In personality typology, the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an introspective self-report questionnaire indicating differing psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. The test attempts to assign a value to each of four categories: introversion or extraversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving.

One letter from each category is taken to produce a four-letter test result, such as "INTP" or "ESFJ".[2][3] The MBTI was constructed by two Americans: Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers, who were inspired by the book Psychological Types by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. Isabel Myers was particularly fascinated by the concept of introversion and she typed herself as an INFP. History[edit] Briggs began her research into personality in 1917. Concepts[edit] Recognition primed decision.

Decision-making model Recognition-primed decision (RPD) is a model of how people make quick, effective decisions when faced with complex situations. In this model, the decision maker is assumed to generate a possible course of action, compare it to the constraints imposed by the situation, and select the first course of action that is not rejected. RPD has been described in diverse groups including trauma nurses, fireground commanders, chess players, and stock market traders. It functions well in conditions of time pressure, and in which information is partial and goals poorly defined. The limitations of RPD include the need for extensive experience among decision-makers (in order to correctly recognize the salient features of a problem and model solutions) and the problem of the failure of recognition and modeling in unusual or misidentified circumstances.

Overview[edit] The RPD model identifies a reasonable reaction as the first one that is immediately considered. Variations[edit] Living in the Present Is a Disorder | Wired Opinion. The opening titles sequence of Game of Thrones conveys a presentist style. Image: HBO We’re living in the now, we no longer have a sense of future direction, and we have a completely new relationship to time. That’s the premise of Douglas Rushkoff’s latest book Present Shock: When Everything Happens Now, a sort-of update to Alvin Toffler’s influential Future Shock from decades ago. I met Rushkoff back when I was editor of the cyberpunk magazine Mondo 2000, when he was working on his first book about digital culture.

The internet is still with us (to put it mildly) … so Rushkoff’s latest book is for everybody. R.U.
