RE: RE:[tips] When Metaphors Fail
Thanks to Allen for the clarification on the Oxford situation. I am relieved that Oxford wouldn't trade tradition for fad (at least in this case) but Oxford wasn't one of the colleges listed in the original article. My point was if something like that could be considered at Oxford, it was clearly within the realm of possibility that some liberal arts college in the US could have had at least such an informal name change. Students unofficially change the names of things all the time and I can certainly imagine an admissions tour guide using that terminology when speaking to prospective students.

Anyway, it won't happen: However, it is unlikely that the 550-year-old college will make the change as the fellows must approve it. A student also said they did not expect to get permission to use the name. Laurence Mills, outgoing president of the JCR, said: 'They did technically vote for the name, but legally I don't think we can do it as I believe the name's owned by Warner Brothers. The change would also have to be ratified by the fellows of Magdalen College and I can't imagine them ever agreeing to it.' Matthew Shribman, who voted for the change, said: 'It is a joke, but at the same time, the Magdalen College JCR is currently called Gryffindor, since the motion ran and passed fully legitimately'. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/oxfordshire/8378458.st Allen Esterson Former lecturer, Science Department Southwark College, London http://www.esterson.org - -- From: Rick Froman rfro...@jbu.edu Subject:RE: When Metaphors Fail Date: Sun, 6 Dec 2009 19:46:28 -0600 Bil Scott doubted that any college-touring high school student would encounter multiple allusions to Harry Potter. I am much more credulous for the following reasons: You can confirm the Middlebury allusion easily by searching their website for Quidditch. What is really sad is that there is an Intercollegiate Quidditch Association: http://www.collegequidditch.com/ Doing the Harvard search: hogwarts site:harvard.edu brings up 98 hits including the fact that JK Rowling spoke at their commencement. Doesn't seem like a stretch that Hogwarts might come up in an Admissions pitch.

I can easily imagine an Admissions counselor mentioning that a famous person such as Emma Watson was considering attending. The Cornell reference in the Quarterly magazine is confirmed here: http://ezramagazine.cornell.edu/Essentials.html and the college website that listed Cornell as being similar to Hogwarts at Applywise.com. Unlike what the author said, it wasn't only because of its location that it was named one of the top 5 most similar to Hogwarts. In addition to its location, it was also due to physical appearance, residential community, academic rigor, extracurricular opportunities and unique traditions. Also listed was the architecture and long winters. My conclusion is that I have no reason to douhbt this story.

[tips] Birth order effects for cooperation?
OK, here's another study I'm mulling over. Courtiol et al (2009) have just reported an experiment on cooperation in college students as a function of birth order. Their measure of cooperation is an objective one, taken from the results of a two- person game. The game provides numerical values for trust and reciprocity, determined by how much money each player sends or returns to his partner. Although birth order studies are infested with methodological problems, this design, as far as I can see, successfully avoids them. The history of claims for birth order effects is not a happy one (e.g. see Judith Rich Harris' Four Essays on Birth Order (2004) at http://xchar.home.att.net/tna/birth-order/index.htm and also her more recent review in No Two Alike (2006)--the chapter headed 'Birth Order and Other Environmental Differences Within the Family). So I paid attention when Courtiol et al reported positive effects of birth order on both trust and reciprocity. But here's the catch. They provided a complex statistical analysis (to me, anyway) but their analysis depends on a curious grouping of birth order: first-borns comprised one group, and later-borns the other. But the later-born group also included only children (without siblings). On logical grounds, one would think that only children belong in the first-born category instead. Their justification for doing this was inspection of the data. For trust: Means of x [their monetary datum] for middleborn, lastborn and only children appeared much closer to each other than to the mean of x for firstborns (Table 2); these three categories were therefore pooled. For reciprocity: Only children and laterborns were pooled because their average amounts sent (y) were closer to each other than to the average amount sent by firstborns (Table 2). My own inspection of their data suggests that without this post- hoc categorization, they would not have been able to report significant results. Is their move kosher, or do we have a case of data-massaging here? _Science_ has a news item on the study at http://tinyurl.com/ylc4l34 It does not mention the peculiar definition of later-borns.

Re: [tips] Birth order effects for cooperation?
I distinguish between a context of discovery, where one SHOULD massage data to discover things (serendipity), and a context of justification (publication) in which we try to convince others of our conclusions. If a researcher (using more than just p = such and such) really believes they have found something, they should try to publish it. It's the responsibility of the reviewers and editors to judge whether the conclusions are warranted, hopefully also using more than p = etc. The best hedge against Type I errors is replication, and getting it published is a way to invite replication.

RE: [tips] Birth order effects for cooperation?
Haven't read the article, but I'll hold off on kosher or neutral until I hear more about what the authors say about their findings. As John notes below, it's crucial to distinguish exploratory from confirmatory modes of data analysis. The former is perfectly acceptable in science, but needs to be presented explicitly as such. If the authors say, on the basis of largely post-hoc analyses, that We have found evidence for birth order effects on ... rather than We have unearthed preliminary evidence for birth order effects on..., which need to be regarded tentatively pending replication, then they're up for justified criticism. The article's title, which not only refers explicitly to a birth order finding, but uses the remarkable term affects for correlational data (were the editors and reviewers asleep on this one?), is not encouraging. But I suppose we should first all have a closer look.Scott Scott O.

Re: [tips] Simulated hallucinations
This is a nice effort to depict some aspects of schizophrenic experiences and can be easily played in class and facilitate discussion. I have found also that some of the experiences of word salad, thought intrusion, and distortions of what people hear and see when listening or speaking can be described via case studies and shared personal experiences. You can use small groups in class to then try to create their own simulations and describe what they are trying to depict. You may even find that some students have had psychotic episodes, hallucinations,etc., and that they may be willing to share their own experiences. Some students are also able to share their perceptions/thoughts regarding the use of various anti-psychotic medications. After a better appreciation of the experiences, we can then discuss theory or related ideas as to mechanisms of speech, perception, attentional control, etc., that might be producing such experiences.
