When We Are a Fool to Ourselves Accessing our own higher mental processes is often difficult. Psychologists have found it easy to manipulate the reasons we give for decisions, judgements or actions. Worse than this, even when we’re not actively being manipulated, we regularly fool ourselves without the need of any encouragement. But are these mistakes systematic in any way? Nisbett and Wilson (1977) provide five factors likely to have a huge effect on how accurately we report our own higher mental processes. 1. Many of our actions, thoughts and feelings are probably motivated by things that happened a long time ago. The reverse is also true. 2. Sometimes the mechanics of our thoughts are just plain weird. There are all sorts of strange biases like this and they make it much harder for us to guess what’s going on in our own minds. 3. Sometimes it’s of vital importance when nothing happens. Conversely it’s much easier to guess that someone doesn’t like us when they walk up and punch us on the nose. 4. 5. References

Marx's theory of alienation The 19th-century German intellectual K.H. Marx (1818–83) identified and described four types of Entfremdung (social alienation) that afflict the worker under capitalism. Entfremdung (estrangement) is Karl Marx’s theory of alienation, that designates the types of human relations which are not controlled by their participants and the ensuing results thereof. Such relations present themselves as the separation of things that naturally belong together; and the placement of antagonism between things that are properly in harmony. Alienation (Entfremdung) is the systemic result of living in a socially stratified society, because being a mechanistic part of a social class alienates a person from his and her humanity. Type of alienation[edit] Let us suppose that we had carried out production as human beings. The four types of Entfremdung are (I) Alienation of the worker from the work — from the product of his labour (II) Alienation of the worker from working — from the act of producing Communism
Crime Times- linking brain dysfunction to disordered/ criminal/ psychopathic behavior Psychopaths, who are among the most dangerous of criminals, have little or no empathy for the people they hurt. A new study, which investigates how psychopaths look at faces, provides a clue about this callousness and suggests a possible early intervention as well. Impaired fear recognition occurs both in psychopaths and in people who suffer damage to a brain area called the amygdala. Some research also links amygdala dysfunction to psychopathic behavior. A recent study found that patients with amygdala dysfunction miss signs of fear because they fail to pay attention to other people's eyes. The researchers measured antisocial and callous-unemotional traits in the children and then analyzed the ability of three different groups-antisocial, callous, or typical children-to recognize emotions. The researchers found that: Children who exhibited antisocial behavior tended to see neutral faces as angry, which is consistent with other studies.
Focus on Brain Disorders - Bipolar Disorder - Aetiology What happens in the brain? The two main neuroanatomic circuits involved in mood regulation are: the limbic-thalamic-cortical circuit the limbic-striatal-pallidal-cortical circuit. A dysfunction in any brain region associated with these mood-regulating circuits may lead to the development of a mood disorder. However, it is not certain whether a disturbance to these areas of the brain causes the onset of mood disorders or whether they are affected during the course of the disease. It is possible that abnormalities in these circuits confer a biological vulnerability, which when combined with environmental factors cause mood disorders (Soares & Mann, 1997). The main brain areas involved in bipolar disorder include the frontal and temporal lobes of the forebrain, the prefrontal cortex, the basal ganglia and parts of the limbic system. Structural imaging studies have recently demonstrated a neuroanatomical basis to bipolar disorder (Manji & Lenox, 2000). Biochemistry The Cholinergic System
Mental Heuristics Page A heuristic is a "rule-of-thumb", advice that helps an AI program or human think and act more efficiently by directing thinking in an useful direction. Some of these heuristics are age-old wisdom, bordering on cliche, but most are actually helpful. If you want something done, do it yourself Comment: Obviously true, and doing it is usually very good for your self esteem. A surprising amount of work can be done this way, and experts are not always necessary. However, there is a risk of becoming overworked if you try to do everything yourself - we all need other people after all. Never procrastinate anything you can do right now Comment: Very powerful. When you have several things you could be doing and don't know which to do: Just do any one of them! Comments: If you cannot decide between two or more possibilities, then there is a good chance that the differences don't matter. Always assume that you will succeed If you can't find a solution, change the rules. Up to the Mental Enhancement Page

Model Theory 1. Basic notions of model theory Sometimes we write or speak a sentence S that expresses nothing either true or false, because some crucial information is missing about what the words mean. If we go on to add this information, so that S comes to express a true or false statement, we are said to interpret S, and the added information is called an interpretation of S. If the interpretation I happens to make S state something true, we say that I is a model of S, or that I satisfies S, in symbols ‘I ⊨ S’. For example I might say He is killing all of them, and offer the interpretation that ‘he’ is Alfonso Arblaster of 35 The Crescent, Beetleford, and that ‘them’ are the pigeons in his loft. The structure I in the previous paragraph involves one fixed object and one fixed class. Note that the objects and classes in a structure carry labels that steer them to the right expressions in the sentence. One of those thingummy diseases is killing all the birds. 2. ∀x∀y∀z (x + (y + z) = (x + y) + z).

The Camels Four tasmanian camels traveling on a very narrow ledge encounter four tasmanian camels coming the other way. As everyone knows, tasmanian camels never go backwards, especially when on a precarious ledge. The camels didn't see each other until there was only exactly one camel's width between the two groups. How can all camels pass, allowing both groups to go on their way, without any camel reversing? Show Hint Show Solution Hint: Use match sticks or coins to simulate the puzzle. Solution: First a camel from one side moves forward, then two camels from the other side move forward, then three camels from the first side move forward etc... etc... 2. Three men in a cafe order a meal the total cost of which is $15. Now, each of the men effectively paid $4, the total paid is therefore $12. Show Solution 3.
