    Researchers use functional magnetic resonance imaging to scan the brain of a student as he imagined each individual limb. Scientists mapped out his brain wave patterns, and translated them into commands to make the robot move. The student was then able to control the robot's movement entirely by thinking about moving.

  • those subjects are WEIRD, and thus not representative of humanity as a whole. Indeed, as Dr Henrich found from his analysis of leading psychology journals, a random American undergraduate is about 4,000 times more likely than an average human being to be the subject of such a study. Drawing general conclusions about the behaviour of Homo sapiens from the results of these studies is risky.

  • Your brain doesn't like uncertainty
  • Certainty on the other hand feels rewarding, and we tend to steer toward it, even when it might be better for us to remain uncertain.

  • You don't just hear; you hear and predict what should come next. You don't just see; you predict what you should be seeing moment to moment.
  • That's because uncertainty feels, to the brain, like a threat to your life.
  • Uncertainty is like an inability to create a complete map of a situation. With parts missing, you're not as comfortable as when the map is complete.
  • It's all about the burst of dopamine we get when a circuit is completed. It feels good - but that doesn't mean it's good for us all the time.
  • It explains why we prefer things we know over things that might be more fun, or better for us, but are new and therefore uncertain.

    While the killing of Osama bin Laden is being enthusiastically celebrated throughout America and parts of the world, to say that such merriment is out of order will surely be considered heresy. Nonetheless, I'm saying it -- because it needs to be said. What I am tempted to say is this: Get a grip, celebrators. Have you so little decency?
