HIV-test i bloggen visar positivt för autism

1 Citation
En gång i höstas skrev jag ett inlägg som jag plockade bort efter två dagar; ett psykologiskt experiment. Jag berättade att jag inte visste om jag var HIV-positiv eller inte. Alla känslor och tankar i inlägget var helt äkta, och jag tog ner det samma dag som jag testade mig. Det var ett sätt att få ur sig tankarna, men sättet de kom fram på skrämde mig. Risken var plötsligt mycket mer verklig. Däremot noterade jag att den reaktion jag hade förväntat i mig själv aldrig kom. Jag trodde att jag s, technorati.com

 

Jeopary and the Limits of Game Theory

1 Citation
I haven?t watched Jeopardy in years, but last night I tuned in because an acquaintance of mine from debating, Aaron Schroeder, was in the tournament of champions (and won the round!).

The game I played went something like this: In the final question, before knowing th, technorati.com

The Theory of Mind is still with us

1 Citation
It?s a given when it comes to autism, or rather a misconception. Like all misconceptions it is both commonplace and all pervasive, the myth that autistic people lack empathy. *** We arrive at the restaurant, install ourselves in a booth in a rather haphazard manner and begin to examine the menu. Everyone knows off by heart. A father and a baby arrive at the same time. They wait to be seated. ?Where for it is?? ?Where?s what dear?? ?The kids menu?? ?Oh did we only get one kids men, technorati.com

?Theory of mind?, MRI, and Christianity

1 Citation
Here is a good article that sums up my perspective on Christianity, especially the bolded paragraph. There is no question n my mind that evolution has provided a sort of boobytrap in that it causes us to impute intentionality to all sorts of things that don?t necessarily have it, but that?s a separate issue from whether there is a higher consciousness to the universe.  The argument for literal Christianity is that the resurrection of Jesus represents a unique intervention from that higher, technorati.com

New Scientist - 'Theory of mind' could help explain belief in God

1 Citation

'Theory of mind' could help explain belief in God March 2009 by Andy Coghlan Once we had evolved the necessary brain architecture, we could "do" religion, brain scans, technorati.com

 

Economic predictions from a theory of mind

1 Citation
Mark Thoma reports Robert Shiller's article on the psychology of the asset bubble and bust , and asks " how to implement this forecasting technique - one based upon a theory of the mind ". I have been working in this area for some time and can suggest the following as a possible framework. I don't know if Shiller has something like this in mind - I suspect not - but I do think it will be a step in the direction that he calls for. Note that this is not yet a fully developed model, but a propo, technorati.com
