Diane Backwell with Red Symons about the 1973 Australian Milgram experiments at La Trob... - 1 views

  •  
    "Dianne Backwell was a psychology student at La Trobe University in 1973. She took part in controversial obedience tests modelled on the infamous Milgram experiments conducted at Yale University in the early sixties. On the orders of a tutor, Dianne had to give what she thought were electric shocks to her fellow student. Even after finding out that there were no shocks, she still suffers to this day about taking part in the experiment."

Constant, Chronic Stress Can Make You Sick - 0 views

  • people who live in constantly stressful situations where they don't get much opportunity to escape, relax, and recharge, are also more likely to have more severe reactions to illnesses—even the common cold
  •  
    "It shouldn't be news by now that stress, especially chronic, prolonged stress, can have negative effects on your health and well-being. .. new research shows that chronic, constant stress from things like a busy job and tense home can lead to more than just the occassional headache."

Teaching self-control: Evidence-based tips - 0 views

  • What works better is praise for effort, and feedback that encourages kids to try different strategies (“Can you think of another way to do it?”)
  • Planning is an important component of self-discipline
  • Any time we ask kids to play by the rules, we’re encouraging them to develop self-control. But some games are more challenging than others.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • kids benefit when parents talk to them about their feelings, show empathy, and discuss constructive ways to cope
  • Experimental studies suggest we can help these kids improve their working memory skills with practice. Computer-based training programs ask kids to pay attention to new information and repeat it back.
  • music training can boost a child's ability to inhibit inappropriate responses
  • When parents are too controlling, or enforce discipline with threats and harsh punishments, kids may lose important opportunities to regulate themselves.
  • harsh parenting tactics predict child aggression and other behavior problems
  •  
    To get along in the classroom, kids need to pay attention, follow directions, stay motivated, and control their impulses. So we might expect self-control to play an important role in academic achievement. Recent studies support the idea.

Of serendipity, introverts and extroverts, social media and shooting the ambu... - 0 views

  • here’s been a lot of talk recently about introverts vs. extroverts and the fact that social media seem to stifle the participation of the not-so-socially-comfortable among us
  • blogs really do encourage slow thinking space and offer a place of choice for thinkers
  • blogging and perhaps to a lesser extent other social media interactions change the way we think and write, but I think for the better
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • social media are all about the network you build and interact with. Regardless of its size
  • criticising social media for sidelining introverts is like shooting at the ambulance: it is targeting the channel not the person using it, it is misguided, over-simplified, not to mention the strait-jacketting it suggests, by putting all introverts and extroverts in one same bag
  •  
    ".. there's been a lot of talk recently about introverts vs. extroverts and the fact that social media seem to stifle the participation of the not-so-socially-comfortable among us. In my sphere, it all started around a few articles on team building, creativity and introverts.."
