Hi
One of the things I wondered about this graph was the strengths of these
approaches to ones that simply assigned weights to medals. For example,
assigning scores to gold, silver, and bronze, of 4, 2, and 1 would generate a
single numerical score for every country, assuming that 2 bronze = 1

Stress cam affect people in a variety of ways and some new research suggests
that it affects men's perception in a particular way. This research has been
picked up by the popular media and here is one popular summary of the
research; see:

I have no problem with critiquing primary sources from real academic
psychologists and I agree that critiquing the work of scholars in our field
should be the primary focus of an education in Psychology. In answer to

Dear Tipsters,
I know I am not answering the question posed, but I wonder why we might not
prefer to critique a book from a real academic psychologist in a senior
seminar. For example, Skinner's "About Behaviorism" or Hebb's "Essay on Mind"

I kind of like "Abducted: How People Come to Believe They Were Kidnapped By
Aliens". It's pretty lightweight but has enough psychology in it to be
interesting. It relates UFO abductions to false memory of other sorts.
