Power Posing: Fake It Until You Make It. We can't be the alpha dog all of the time. Whatever our personality, most of us experience varying degrees of feeling in charge. Some situations take us down a notch while others build us up. New research shows that it's possible to control those feelings a bit more, to be able to summon an extra surge of power and sense of well-being when it's needed: for example, during a job interview or for a key presentation to a group of skeptical customers. "Our research has broad implications for people who suffer from feelings of powerlessness and low self-esteem due to their hierarchical rank or lack of resources," says HBS assistant professor Amy J.C.

Cuddy, one of the researchers on the study. “It’s not about the content of the message, but how you’re communicating it.” The result? "We used to think that emotion ended on the face," Cuddy says. The experiment In their article, to be published in a forthcoming Psychological Science, Cuddy and coauthors Dana R. Why we judge Warmth versus competence. The Reason We Reason | Wired Science  Let me tell you about a classic psychological study that I don’t believe. In the early 1980s, Amos Tversky and Thomas Gilovich began sifting through years of statistics from the Philadelphia 76ers. The psychologists looked at every single shot taken by every single player, and recorded whether or not that shot had been preceded by a string of hits or misses. All told, they analyzed thousands upon thousands of field goal attempts. Why’d they do this? After analyzing all the shots of the 76ers, the psychologists discovered that there was absolutely no evidence of “the hot hand.”

The 76ers were shocked by the evidence. But maybe the 76ers were a statistical outlier. Why, then, do we believe in the hot hand? Here’s where things get meta: Even though I know all about Tversky and Gilovich’s research – and fully believe the data – I still perceive the hot hand. The larger question, of course, is why confirmation bias exists. You Know More Than You Know | Wired Science  There’s a fascinating new paper in Psychological Science by the Dutch psychologist Ap Dijksterhuis on the virtues of unconscious thought when it comes to predicting the outcome of soccer matches. It turns out that the conscious brain – that rational voice in your head deliberating over the alternatives – gets in the way of expertise. Although we tend to think of experts as being weighted down by information, their intelligence dependent on a vast set of explicit knowledge, this experiment suggests that successful experts don’t consciously access these facts.

When they evaluate a situation, they don’t systematically compare all the available soccer teams or analyze the relevant players. They don’t rely on elaborate spreadsheets or athletic statistics or long lists of pros and cons. Instead, Dijksterhuis’ study suggests that the best experts naturally depend on their unconscious mind, on that subterranean warehouse of feelings, hunches and instincts. So far, so obvious. Jonah Lehrer on Behavioral Economics: Is 'Nudging' Really Enough? | Head Case. Developers: ES5 builds are disabled during development to take advantage of 2x faster build times. Please see the example below or our config docs if you would like to develop on a browser that does not fully support ES2017 and custom elements.

Note that as of Stencil v2, ES5 builds and polyfills are disabled during production builds. You can enable these in your stencil.config.ts file. When testing browsers it is recommended to always test in production mode, and ES5 builds should always be enabled during production builds. This is only an experiment and if it slows down app development then we will revert this and enable ES5 builds during dev. Enabling ES5 builds during development: npm run dev --es5 For stencil-component-starter, use: npm start --es5 Enabling full production builds during development: npm run dev --prod npm start --prod Current Browser's Support: Current Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0.

In a study with implications for the advertising industry and public health organizations, UCLA neuroscientists have shown they can use brain scanning to predict whether people will use sunscreen during a one-week period even better than the people themselves can. "There is a very long history within psychology of people not being very good judges of what they will actually do in a future situation," said the study's senior author, Matthew Lieberman, a UCLA professor of psychology and of psychiatry and biobehavioral sciences.

"Many people 'decide' to do things but then don't do them. " "From this region of the brain, we can predict for about three-quarters of the people whether they will increase their use of sunscreen beyond what they say they will do," Lieberman said. "If you just go by what people say they will do, you get fewer than half of the people accurately predicted, and using this brain region, we could do significantly better.

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Un biais cognitif est un schéma de pensée, cause de déviation du jugement. Le terme biais fait référence à une déviation systématique par rapport à la réalité. L'étude des biais cognitifs fait l'objet de nombreux travaux en psychologie cognitive, en psychologie sociale et plus généralement dans les sciences cognitives. Ces travaux ont identifié de nombreux biais cognitifs propres à l'esprit humain [réf. nécessaire] à travers de multiples domaines : perception, statistiques, logique, causalité, relations sociales, etc. Du point de vue de leurs domaines, on peut distinguer entre autres des erreurs de perception, d'évaluation, d'interprétation logique.

Ces biais cognitifs ne sont généralement pas conscients.
