From Our Blog by Brittney Rankins almost 5 years ago New Additions Brief summaries of articles pulled from a future digitized issue published by The Chronicle, as part of the 1990s Duke Chronicle Digitization Project The time has come for the temperature to drop, decadent smells to waft through the air, and eyes become tired and bloodshot.

Common Causes of Very Bad Decisions · Collaborative Fund Italian psychologist Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini was once asked why people keep making the same mistakes. He said: Inattention, distraction, lack of interest, poor preparation, genuine stupidity, timidity, braggadocio, emotional imbalance, ideological, racial, social or chauvinistic prejudices, and aggressive or prevaricatory instincts. Let me add some more: Incentives can tempt good people to push the boundaries farther than they’d ever imagine. Tribal instincts reduce the ability to challenge bad ideas because no one wants to get kicked out of the tribe. Ignoring or underestimating the full range of potential consequences, especially tail events that seem rare but have catastrophic effects. Lots of little errors compound into something huge. An innocent denial of your own flaws, caused by the ability to justify your mistakes in your own head in a way you can’t do for others. Probability is hard. Underestimating the need for room for error, not just financially but mentally.

ATHENA - Pierre Perroud Why You Need To Say 'No' At Work (Hint: Your Work Will Get Better) Here’s a familiar scenario: You’re up to your ears in projects. Despite this, your boss comes up with a new initiative and is asking you to spearhead it, knowing full well you’re already overloaded. You somehow ignore the internal screaming inside your head and, to your own disbelief, you hear yourself saying yes to this request. You may be a people pleaser, but there are a few psychological reasons why you always agree to help out a coworker, or rather, avoid turning down their requests—even when you already have a stacked to-do list. Seeking Approval Is Scientifically Proven Despite it looking like blatant self-sabotage, you are actually hardwired to say “yes” to requests, even if you don’t want to. This is because evolutionarily, it was beneficial for humans to live, hunt, and work together in large groups. As a result, humans (even as far back as hominids) learned to adopt behaviors that were agreeable to a group dynamic. Image source You Underestimate Your Own Workload D. O. C.

Mind Hacks Jubilothèque — Charcot collection The BUPMC keeps in the Bibliothèque de Neurosciences Jean-Martin Charcot, historical collections mainly constituted by J.M. Charcot's personal library (books, journals, theses and offprint collections, manuscripts, observations, neurological covering the second part of the XIXth century) to which is added the Salpêtrière Interns' library (books, journals, neurology and psychiatry theses thèses for the period 1900-1950). Part of these collections was digitized with the double aim of preserving the original documents and ensuring the valorization of collections notable for their iconography : manuscripts of lessons and observations by J.M. The collection has been enhanced with four sets of documents, selected among Charcot's library and the Salpêtrière Interns' library and reflecting the treasures of the library, as well as the work of Charcot's colleagues and successors :

100% Free eBooks for All Devices Obvious Things That Are Easy To Ignore · Collaborative Fund “The world is full of obvious things which nobody ever observes,” says Sherlock Holmes. In a different scene he tells a friend while thinking about a crime: “It seems, from what I gather, to be one of those simple cases which are so extremely difficult.” Lots of things work like that. Learning from something has two parts: whether it’s important and whether it captures your attention. The number of things that check the first box but not the second are higher than any of us want. It’s not that the simple things are hidden. Two examples of obvious things that are easy to overlook in finance: 1. Former Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein is worth a billion dollars. Let’s assume there’s more than false modesty here. Blankfein is not even among the 10 richest people in his own apartment building. Spare Lloyd your tears, but pay attention to two things that affect all of us: People gauge their wellbeing relative to those around them. It’s been like that forever and for everyone. 2.

Project Implicit® - Take a Test Whichever IAT you do, we will ask you (optionally) to report your attitudes toward or beliefs about these topics, and provide some general information about yourself. These demonstrations should be more valuable if you have also tried to describe your self-understanding of the characteristic that the IAT is designed to measure. Also, we would like to compare possible differences among groups in their IAT performance and opinions, at least among those who decide to participate. Data exchanged with this site are protected by SSL encryption, and no personally identifying information is collected. Important disclaimer: In reporting to you results of any IAT test that you take, we will mention possible interpretations that have a basis in research done (at the University of Washington, University of Virginia, Harvard University, and Yale University) with these tests. I am aware of the possibility of encountering interpretations of my IAT test performance with which I may not agree.
