This document is the winter 2014 issue of PsychOut, a student-run psychology publication from the University of York. The issue includes articles on the psychology of Christmas spending, whether telling children about Santa is damaging, and an interview with the Head of the Psychology Department, Quentin Summerfield. It also features regular sections on media, tweets, and polls related to psychology. The issue aims to bring interesting psychology news to students in a fun way around the Christmas period.
The document discusses the root causes of various health issues and differences between individuals. It claims that the root cause is malocclusion or improper bite, which can lead to cranial bone misalignment and postural collapse over time. Fixing the bite through methods like bite splints, ALF, and tongue exercises can potentially address a wide range of issues from posture and symmetry to health, longevity, muscle development, and more. The implications of malocclusion connecting to the nervous system are highly significant if true.
The document discusses several key topics in philosophy including:
1. What is philosophy and why study it? While philosophers have an image of being impractical, everyone thinks about life's basic questions like the purpose of life.
2. What are the basic issues of philosophy? It covers metaphysics which examines the nature of reality, epistemology which examines the nature of knowledge, and ethics which examines concepts like free will.
3. The document outlines some of the core branches of philosophy including metaphysics which examines the nature of existence and reality, personal identity which examines what makes someone a person, and ethics which examines concepts of free will and determinism.

This document provides instructions and prompts for students to help them choose a topic for an upcoming research and argument project related to the current US presidential election. It guides students through a free writing exercise to generate lists of important issues and values, things they would be willing to die for, topics mentioned by presidential candidates, and a combined list. Students are asked to consider which topics they would be most interested in researching for a month. The document instructs students that the project will involve a neutral, fact-based research memo and an argumentative piece staking out their own position on the chosen topic. It provides due dates and grading criteria for the project.
This interview discusses the concept of "flow", which is described as an optimal state of consciousness where attention is fully focused and absorbed in an activity, such as a challenging task or creative work. Flow is associated with peak human performance and experiences like fully engaging conversations or intense focus during a car accident. The interviewee details research showing that flow can significantly increase learning, productivity, creativity, and physical and mental abilities. Certain environmental and psychological factors can make individuals more prone to experiencing flow states. The neuroscience of flow is also explained, relating it to specific brain wave patterns and neurochemical changes that enhance focus, risk-taking, and lateral thinking.
Steven Kotler is the author and director of research at the Flow Genome Project. He describes flow as an optimal state of consciousness where attention is fully focused on a task, self-consciousness disappears, and time perception is altered. Studies have found flow leads to major increases in performance, learning, creativity, and productivity. For example, top executives in flow experience 500% increases in productivity, and artificial induction of flow in military snipers increased learning by 230%. Flow appears to train the brain to be more creative even after the flow state ends. Kotler argues flow represents optimal human performance and can significantly enhance physical, mental and creative abilities.
This interview discusses the concept of "flow", which is described as an optimal state of consciousness where attention is fully focused and self-consciousness disappears, allowing peak performance. Flow is associated with heightened learning, creativity, and productivity. The interviewee details several studies showing dramatic increases in these areas during flow states, such as 500-700% increases in learning and creativity. He explains how flow optimizes various brain functions to enhance performance, and that certain environmental and psychological factors can induce flow in individuals and groups.

The document discusses the author's past aspirations to be a poetic genius like Arthur Rimbaud, who achieved fame at a young age in Paris before abandoning poetry for other pursuits. As a teenager, the author felt he too was destined for literary greatness, producing plays, paintings, and performance art. However, over time the author realized the difficulties of maintaining Rimbaud's level of success and burned out on various artistic endeavors.
Here are potential revisions to improve the LOI:
1. Focus on a specific aspect or element of the education system to change rather than the broad question of whether the entire system should change. For example:
Should high-stakes standardized testing be reduced or replaced in K-12 public education?
2. Provide context or rationale for why the change is being proposed. For example:
How might reducing emphasis on standardized testing in public schools allow for a more well-rounded, student-centered approach to learning?
3. Suggest exploring multiple perspectives on the issue rather than taking a definitive stance. For example:
What are the arguments for and against proposed reforms to reduce standardized testing in U.S
A Mexican scientist discusses his background in biology and palaeontology. He became interested in computer science through secondary school classes and seeing his father work as a programmer. As a palaeontologist, he applies computer science concepts like data science and artificial intelligence to digitize fossils. He emphasizes embracing frustration when learning and believes communication and listening are important for diversity in universities.
The document discusses the importance and power of observation. It argues that observation is a key skill that allows people to understand others, learn new things, and progress their knowledge and abilities. The document asserts that many major scientific discoveries and innovations were only possible because of careful observation, and that observation is a foundational part of how humans develop language skills and understand the world from a young age.
The document discusses two influential feminist writings from the 1970s anthology "Feminism in Our Time". Naomi Weisstein's "Kinder, Kuche, Kirche as Scientific Law: Psychology Constructs the Female" criticized how psychology constructed female identity based on traditional gender roles. Susan Brownmiller's "Against Our Will: Men, Women, and Rape" examined how popular models in medicine and psychology were centered on men, resulting in inaccurate treatment of women. Both pieces reflected the feminist effort to challenge patriarchal assumptions within academic fields.
This document contains a presentation by Prof. Flip Tanedo about their background and work. It discusses Prof. Tanedo's educational and professional experiences, including being the first in their family to attend college. It also describes their research focusing on theoretical particle physics and dark matter. Prof. Tanedo shares their goal of increasing equity in science through teaching and mentoring students from underrepresented groups.
This document provides biographies of several University of Wollongong students and graduates. It discusses their educational backgrounds and careers, highlighting how their paths were not always direct and predictable. It profiles students studying medicine, engineering, finance, and biomechanics who found their calling in unexpected ways.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

OK. Well, we better go to the
Science Wing and see whether
we can find Profs. Thiagavel
and Fitzpatrick, then.
16. For BIOB90, you have to work with
a group of diverse students. Sounds
like a great way to inspire inclusive
excellence, which is UTSC’s
slogan. So, you definitely have to
take the course to get a grade for it.

Go for a walk along the Valley
Land Trail.
Go to the Science Wing to see
whether Profs. Thiagavel and
Fitzpatrick can be located.
18. UTSC has such a beautiful campus!
Oh, yes, I did take BIOB90 last year. It
was my favourite course. You should
definitely take it!

Go to the Science Research
Building. That’s where Prof.
Brown’s office is located. Maybe
we can find him!
Go to the Biology Main Office to
visit Dr. Ken Welch. He’s the
Departmental Chair, so maybe
he’ll let us bend the rules and
get an A+ in BIOB90 without
taking the course.
What next?
Only the Judging people in
your group get to make this
decision.
20. You find Prof. Brown’s office
unlocked and peek inside, but no
one is there.
21. You find Prof. Brown’s office
unlocked and peek inside, but no

Visit Campus Police. Something
bad might have happened to
Prof. Brown.
Wait a few minutes and see
whether Prof. Brown returns.
Maybe he’s just in the
washroom?
What next?
Only the Perceiving people in
your group get to make this
decision.
22. After waiting 10 minutes, Prof.
Brown did not return. Either he’s not
in the washroom or…

your group get to make this
decision.

Rummage through Dr. Brown’s
stuff. Maybe he keeps his A+’s
in here somewhere. If not, we’ll
help ourselves to his printer.
24. Hey! I’m Prof. Mott! What are you
doing in Prof. Brown’s office alone?
25. What next?
Only the Perceiving people in
your group get to make this

Hey! I’m Prof. Mott! What are you
doing in Prof. Brown’s office alone?
Tell Dr. Mott you found the office
unlocked and think you should
tell campus police.
Push Prof. Mott out of the way
and run as fast as you can out
of the building!
26. I think we escaped! But no A+’s and
no printer!
27. What next?
Only the Extraversion people
in your group get to make this
decision.
I think we escaped! But no A+’s and
no printer!
All that running made me
hungry. Let’s go to the Student
Center for some grub!
We shouldn’t have to work this
hard to find our professors. I’m
going to text Ontario Premier
Doug Ford and ask him to
authorize us getting an A+
without taking this course.
28. Prof. Brown? Big guy, red beard,
right? He’s not missing. I just saw
him a few minutes ago. He was
walking towards the ARC.

Visit AC223, the biggest lecture
hall on campus, located in the
ARC.
Visit Highland Hall, located just
behind the ARC. Prof. Brown’s
office used to located there.
What next?

in your group get to make this
decision.
31. What next?

your group get to make this

AC223 is empty. No sign of anyone,
including Prof. Brown
.
Let’s visit the Biology Main
Office. The administrative
assistants are the ones who
keep the whole Department
running. They probably know
where Prof. Brown is!

32. The sign on the door says this is
Prof. Brown’s office, but there’s a
woman inside. She says she’s a
new faculty member at UTSC and
doesn’t know who Prof. Brown is.

We noticed an art exhibit on the
campus grounds. Perhaps Prof.
Brown is exploring his non-
scientific side? Let’s find out!
It’s been a long day. Let’s go to
the Student Center and get
something to eat.
34. I’ve never taken a biology course,
so I don’t know who Prof. Brown is.
Maybe he was here today, but I
wouldn’t have recognized him even
so.

36. Oh, that’s not a monkey behind me.
That’s the remains of the last
student who asked for an A+
without taking the course.

Since we’re in the Science Wing
already, let’s see whether we
can find Profs. Thiagavel or
Fitzpatrick since their offices are
in this building.
Let’s text Ontario Premier Doug
Ford. He’ll help us get an A+
without actually taking the
course. He doesn’t value
education anyway!
38. You must take the course in order
to get a grade. But that’s only my
answer for today. If you ask again
tomorrow, you may get a different
response.

Ask again tomorrow.
I guess we’re not getting an A+
without actually taking the
course. Maybe we should
search for the profs. Let’s go to
the Science Wing.
40. Usually, we can solve any problem
you have, so we’re glad you came
here, but we haven’t seen Prof.
Brown lately.

Welch, the Department Chair,
and ask him if we can get an A+
without even taking the course.
Someone’s tummy growled.
Maybe we should take a quick
lunch break over at the Student
Center.
42. You know what, you seem like nice
folks. Sure, you can have an A+.
Just email your course coordinators
and tell them ol’ Dougie approved it!
