[tips] Sleight of hand
This video could be relevant to coverage of sensation and perception. It is of a magician who appears 'mentally disturbed' while engaging in some really dexterous sleight of hand (and head?). It's very entertaining: http://www.wimp.com/impressivehand/ Miguel --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.

Re: [tips] Sleight of hand
Thanks! It is good magic and funny. I don't see mental illness tho?! Just clown-like and goofy as funny things happen. But then, perhaps that WOULD describe a very human response to a world that seems suddenly crazy. G.L.

[tips] What Is Wrong With Republicans?
Fairleigh-Dickerson U's Public Mind Poll has released the results of a poll focusing on the U.S. populace's belief in conspiracy theories. Both Democrats and Republicans claimed to believe in one or more conspiracy theories -- of 4 conspiracy theories, 56% of Democrats believed in one or more while 75% of Republicans believed in one or more. Most significantly, 64% of Republicans believed that Obama was hiding something about his past (which is used as a proxy for birtherism) while only 14% of Democrats believed this. What is most surprising is not that these two groups believe in conspiracy theories but the difference in the two groups of the relationship of their knowledge of current events to these beliefs. Quoting the press release by FDU: |However, the relationship between current events knowledge |and belief in conspiracy theories is conditional on partisanship. |Among Democrats, each question answered correctly reduces |the likelihood of endorsing at least one of the conspiracy theories |by seven points. Among independents, each additional question |reduces it by two points. For Republicans, though, each additional |question answered correctly tends to increase belief in at least |one of the theories by two points. Allow me to emphasize this point: the more Republicans knew about current events, the more they believed in conspiracy theories! |There are several possible explanations for this, said Cassino. |It could be that more conspiracy-minded Republicans seek out |more information, or that the information some Republicans seek |out just tends to reinforce these myths. Salon has a public media article on this poll; see: http://www.salon.com/2013/01/17/poll_64_of_republicans_are_birthers/ The press release along with description of methodology and tables of results can be read here: http://publicmind.fdu.edu/2013/outthere/ On the homepage of the website is a barchart that summarizes the key findings of the polls; see: http://publicmind.fdu.edu/ -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
