Forever blogging about stats. Laquo; Researchers Beware. Yes, Apologies Do Need to be Costly…(Your Dignity Will Do! Rats are only vermin…. On March 25, 2012. I recently read an article. Marasco and Kuiken (2010). Personally I’m torn. I want humans to be given the best chance of normal, happy, functional lives. I totally agree that humans always come first in a question of welfare. But I don’t like animal cruelty. So what do we think people? I know that this research was in aid of a good cause (much bette...

Serotonin and boosting happiness | studying psychology

https://studyingpsychology.wordpress.com/2011/11/18/serotonin-and-boosting-happiness

Serotonin and boosting happiness. Secondly, another way to boost serotonin is by having a massage. Studies show a positive relationship between massages and serotonin levels. This again helps to release tension, relax us and could possibly also increase serotonin due to the physical human contact.

Do we create our own luck? | studying psychology

https://studyingpsychology.wordpress.com/2011/12/02/do-we-create-our-own-luck

Do we create our own luck? One interesting topic that many psychologists have looked into and many books have been published about it. There are contrasting views over whether the attribute of being lucky really exists or whether we make our own luck in the opportunities we take in everyday life, plus how we see ourselves, in terms of luckiness.

Stereotyping and how insane we really are | Katia Covalenco

https://covalenco.wordpress.com/2011/10/07/stereotyping-and-how-insane-we-really-are

Can you hear the wheels turning? October 7, 2011. Stereotyping and how insane we really are. Stereotyping, it’s something we all do, we do it daily, sometimes even in a very creative manner, unconsciously or on purpose. It is unfortunately part of our daily lives and a staple in any culture or society, some even may argue it is related to the instinct of survival. On the other hand, isn’t labeling stereotypes as being bad a stereotype in itself? Next post →. October 10, 2011. October 11, 2011. There are ...
