When Gaming Is Good for You
By ROBERT LEE HOTZ Videogames can change a person's brain and, as researchers are finding, often that change is for the better. Love them or hate them, online videogames are a treasure trove for researchers who are studying how all those keyboard taps, mouse clicks and joystick moves may affect behavior, perception and even cognitive skills.

XWave EEG Brain Computer Interface for Your iPhone/iPad
The XWave is an EEG interface from PLX Devices (Sunnyvale, CA) that works with iPhones/iPads as a controller for games, meditation training, and potentially many other uses not invented yet. The actual EEG is NeuroSky ‘s eSense dry sensor, which the company has been licensing to other companies in order to push the technology into consumer hands. The plastic headband, which costs around $100, has a sensor that presses against the user’s forehead and communicates with a free XWave iPhone application that then shows your brain waves graphically on the iPhone screen. As you focus your mind on a task the graphics are changed — a ball may move higher for instance, or your state of relaxation may be indicated by changes in a pulsating color, which moves towards blue as you become more relaxed.
Every product evokes a total consumer experience – from first view to opening to use to post-consumption satisfaction. From a neurological perspective, each step in the path is revealing: What makes the brain want to try your product, enjoy your product, then come back and buy it again and again? How can you design a product that stimulates the subconscious reward centers in the brain? What are the Neurological Iconic Signatures (NIS), the high points of consumers’ interactions with your product?

I'm close to tears behind my thin cover of sandbags as 20 screaming, masked men run towards me at full speed, strapped into suicide bomb vests and clutching rifles. For every one I manage to shoot dead, three new assailants pop up from nowhere. I'm clearly not shooting fast enough, and panic and incompetence are making me continually jam my rifle. My salvation lies in the fact that my attackers are only a video, projected on screens to the front and sides. It's the very simulation that trains US troops to take their first steps with a rifle, and everything about it has been engineered to feel like an overpowering assault.

Ten psychological findings that challenge our intuitive view of how our minds work. Some critics say psychology is just common sense , that it only confirms things we already know about ourselves. Ironically this can be difficult to argue with because once people get some new information they tend to think it was obvious all along. One way of battling this is to think about all the unexpected, surprising and plain weird findings that have popped out of psychology studies over the years.
