Are Women More Generous Than Men | Women and Philanthropy: A Literature Review | Center... - 0 views

  • Are Women More Generous Than Men?
    • sydney goldman
       
      this publication talks about empathic response based on gender and giving to charity. it includes many dates and names concerning experiment previously done that can prove or deny information that is stated. she states that the amount of money that is to be given is a big factor as well, quote: "men are more generous when it is cheap, but women are more generous when it is more expensive to give." In the end she states that it goes way further than just gender, quote: "single females, married men, and married women are significantly more likely to be donors than single men."
  • In the economics literature, Andreoni and Vesterlund (2001) seminal study demonstrated that the question of “Who is more generous?” is complicated. Their study differences in the “demand curves for altruism” where men are more responsive to the price of giving (pg. 1). They conclude that men are more generous when it is cheap to give, but women are more generous when it is more expensive to give.

Video games help focus on fine detail - 1 views

  • Video games help focus on fine detail From: The Australian February 13, 2007 12:00AM Increase Text Size Decrease Text Size Print Email Share Add to Digg Add to del.icio.us Add to Facebook Add to Kwoff Add to Myspace Add to Newsvine What are these? PLAYING video games that involve high levels of visual action on a daily basis can improve your ability to see fine detail, a study shows. Researchers at the University of Rochester in the US have found that people who played action video games for a few hours a day over the course of a month sharpened their ability to identify letters by about 20 per cent. "Action video game play changes the way our brains process visual information," says Daphne Bavelier, professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the university. "After just 30 hours, players showed a substantial increase in the spatial resolution of their vision, meaning they could see figures like those on an eye chart more clearly, even when other symbols crowded in."

      Why highlight this?
  • PLAYING video games that involve high levels of visual action on a daily basis can improve your ability to see fine detail, a study shows.

"Action video game play changes the way our brains process visual information," says Daphne Bavelier, professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the university.
  • These games push the human visual system to the limits and the brain adapts to it," she says. "That learning carries over into other activities and possibly everyday life."

      An interesting article.
  •  
    This website talks about how video games help looking at the fine detail. It states that playing action video games such as halo or call of duty refine your ability to see fine detail. This characteristic is important for doctors or architects. This website is credible becuase it took it's information from the university of Rochester in the United States study.
