New psychological studies explain what history has long shown to be true\u2014that war holds a deep attraction for large numbers of people in most cultures around the world. In accepting and understanding this hard truth, we may be better equipped to bring peace on earth. A timely new edition of his book The Psychology of War arrived last fall, just as the White House began beating the drums\u2014and much of the American public eagerly fell in line\u2014for a new war.\" Adapted from LeShan's The Psychology of War: Comprehending its Mystique and Madness, published in spring 2003.","ub_date":"1227361289","bookmark_date":"1226190149","tags_str":"citeulike<\/a>, postfacebooksource<\/a>, psychology<\/a>, rels327<\/a>, violence<\/a>, war<\/a>, webcite<\/a>","se_id":"lawrence-leshan-why-we-love-war-and-what-we-can-do-to-prevent-it-anyway-as-published-in-the-utne-reader-jan-feb-2003","user_name":"nbr","user_img":"cartoon_scowl.jpg","user_count":"1"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/www.psych.nyu.edu\/gary\/marcusArticles\/marcus%202000%20tilburg%20chapter.pdf","bookmark_desc":"Children's Overregularization and Its Implications for Cognition","bookmark_notes":"A central goal for cognitive science is to discover basic computational mechanisms that are recruited throughout\ncognition (Gallistel, 1994). In this paper I propose two mechanisms which underlie learning and generalization.\nIn particular, I propose that humans have both a statistical mechanism which extracts, collects, and tabulates\nstatistical contingencies in the environment, and a rule mechanism which suppresses variation between examples\nwithin a category, thereby treating all instances of a category as equal members. Of course, neither mechanism is\nentirely novel; indeed, much of the debate in cognitive psychology concerns such mechanisms. My goal here is to\nargue that both mechanisms are necessary. Section 2 presents detailed arguments that argue for the existence of both\nmechanisms within a single narrow linguistic domain, inflection. Section 3 proposes that these same two types of\nmechanisms are used in many other domains of cognition.","ub_date":"1227354886","bookmark_date":"1224919787","tags_str":"article<\/a>, linguistics<\/a>, pdf<\/a>, psychology<\/a>","se_id":"childrens-overregularization-and-its-implications-for-cognition","user_name":"davidar","user_img":"","user_count":"1"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/www.timesonline.co.uk\/tol\/life_and_style\/health\/mental_health\/article4988978.ece","bookmark_desc":"Do five simple things a day to stay sane, say scientists - Times Online","bookmark_notes":"","ub_date":"1227380194","bookmark_date":"1224749476","tags_str":"health<\/a>, personal<\/a>, psychology<\/a>, science<\/a>, toread<\/a>","se_id":"do-five-simple-things-a-day-to-stay-sane-say-scientists-times-online","user_name":"nbr","user_img":"cartoon_scowl.jpg","user_count":"5"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/dna.imagini.net\/friends","bookmark_desc":"Imagini VisualDNA","bookmark_notes":"","ub_date":"1227382532","bookmark_date":"1224592309","tags_str":"community<\/a>, fun<\/a>, personality<\/a>, psychology<\/a>, test<\/a>, yam<\/a>","se_id":"imagini-visualdna","user_name":"ppmartin","user_img":"1224435323151.jpg","user_count":"1"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/www.queendom.com","bookmark_desc":"Queendom","bookmark_notes":"Tests, Tests, Tests and more Tests, The biggest testing center in the world with personality, intelligence, relationship, career and mental health related tests.","ub_date":"1227382524","bookmark_date":"1224592299","tags_str":"fun<\/a>, games<\/a>, personality<\/a>, psychology<\/a>, quiz<\/a>, quizzes<\/a>, test<\/a>, tests<\/a>","se_id":"queendom","user_name":"ppmartin","user_img":"1224435323151.jpg","user_count":"1"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/events.carsonified.com\/fowa\/2008\/london\/content","bookmark_desc":"Future Of Web Apps - London 2008","bookmark_notes":"","ub_date":"1227380187","bookmark_date":"1223722504","tags_str":"apps<\/a>, business<\/a>, design<\/a>, facebook<\/a>, fowa<\/a>, languages<\/a>, maps<\/a>, mobile<\/a>, open<\/a>, panel<\/a>, More...<\/a>","se_id":"future-of-web-apps-london-2008","user_name":"mdrechsler","user_img":"","user_count":"3"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/www.monroeinstitute.com","bookmark_desc":"The Monroe Institute","bookmark_notes":"","ub_date":"1227380796","bookmark_date":"1223463521","tags_str":"mind<\/a>, neuroscience<\/a>, paranormal<\/a>, psychology<\/a>, research<\/a>, science<\/a>, spiritual<\/a>, spirituality<\/a>","se_id":"the-monroe-institute","user_name":"praguebob","user_img":"1221515362197.jpg","user_count":"1"},{"data_type":"bookmark","bookmark_url":"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Image:Hyperthymesia_cartoon.jpg","bookmark_desc":"Hyperthymesia, explained in cartoon form, by Greg Williams","bookmark_notes":"Hyperthymesia is \"excessive autobiographical memory\" and is very unusual.
