The pitch count has become a psychological barrier
2008-06-09 16:41:00 Long gone are the days when stalwart relievers like Clem Labine, Jim Konstanty, Hoyt Wilhelm and Lindy McDaniel could start a big game when needed. That was when men were men, and message boards with pitch-count totals did not leer out at the field, displaying annoying advertisements and promotions wrote New York Times columnist George Vecsey. (They are message boards, not scoreboards. Heaven forbid you should be able to follow line scores and know who is pitching in other games around the majors.) The message boards do tell everybody in the ballpark what the pitching coaches and managers track obsessively. Broadcasters cluck with dismay when a pitcher goes over 20 pitches in the first inning, sensing imminent doom. Some batters may take a pitch or swat a foul just to wear down the pitcher, although Girardi thinks that tactic is overrated. More to the point, the pitch count has become a psychological barrier for starters — a visible sign of failure accumulating pitch by pitch:...

American Psychological Association Supports Psychologist
2008-06-03 16:14:00 by Stephen Soldz Engagement in Bush Regime Interrogations: - A Critique of Stephen Behnke's Letter to the ACLU Since 2005, the American Psychological Association (APA) has steadfastly asserted that psychologists participating in detainee interrogations protects detainees by helping to keep these interrogations "safe, legal, ethical, and effective." Last week, the APA's Ethics Director Stephen Behnke seized upon newly released portions of an official investigation of US detainee abuse, called the Church Report, as an opportunity to reinvigorate support for the APA policy of psychologist participation in interrogations. In a letter to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), The APA's Dr. Behnke stated: "In carefully reviewing the documents, we note that according to the information obtained by the ACLU, psychologists supporting interrogations 'emphasized their separation from detainee medical care', and that a psychologist who suspected ...

Weight Gain and Weight Loss – the Psychological Ramifications
2008-05-21 03:37:00 With roughly the same amount of food being available to all of us in our society, why do some people end up with weight problems while others don’t? And moreover, why are some of us able to lose weight and change our lifestyle relatively easily, while others hold onto their excess weight? There are about three different answers to those questions. The first is physical – some of us have a faster metabolism than others. We just burn calories faster, so any weight that we do gain is quickly lost. The second answer is behavioral – this refers to the habits we have picked up over the years. If we have bad eating habits, they can be changed, but until they are, we are likely stuck with any weight that we do gain.The third variable is psychological, and it may even be the most powerful determinant for who will be able to lose weight and who won’t. Many of us have a psychological basis for our weight gain or weight loss. Until the psychological issues are dealt with, weight loss ma...

Trauma: Emotional & Psychological
2008-05-11 06:57:00 Causes, Symptoms, Effects, and Treatment Trauma. The word brings to mind the effects of such major events as war, rape, kidnapping, abuse, torture, or other similar assault. The emotional aftermath of such events, recognized by the medical and psychological communities, and increasingly by the general public, is known as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Now there is a new field of investigation that is less familiar, even to professionals: emotional or psychological trauma.Recent research has revealed that emotional trauma can result from such common occurrences as an auto accident, the breakup of a significant relationship, a humiliating or deeply disappointing experience, the discovery of a life-threatening illness or disabling condition, or other similar situations. Traumatizing events can take a serious emotional toll on those involved, even if the event did not cause physical damage.Regardless of its source, an emotional trauma contains three common elements:it was unexpe...

Obama Looses the Psychological Underdog Factor to Clinton
2008-05-05 02:45:00 Do you get a a sense that if the Iowa Caucus was run again on Tuesday along with North Carolina and Indiana that the result might be quite a bit different? Americans do have a passion for drama and support for the underdog. How much of that passion was at play in the early primaries? Back at the beginning of the primaries, there was no doubt that Barack Obama was the clear underdog and Hillary Clinton was supposed to be the hands down sure thing. If you are honest with yourself there was also an unspoken tension regarding race as a potential differentiator. Thus the MSM did virtually no investigation of Barack’s personal associations for fear of being branded as playing a race card if they were the first to break a negative or controversial story or fact. Ironically — it was Barack’s own pastor of 20 years that has now opened the lid on the race card pandora’s box. Not the Republicans, not Hillary Clinton or John McCain, but his long time association with...

Forex: No psychological limitations
2008-04-15 20:23:00 Back when I first started learning about investing, I decided to start from the beginning and read basic books on personal finance as well as "guides" for understanding all of the investment world in a nut shell. Most of these authors were very knowledgeable and informative, but their investment advice was far too conservative for my taste. They would literally write chapter after chapter talking about the differences between conservative investing, which according to them generally yields somewhere around 5% PA, as opposed to "risky" investing which usually meant a diversified stock/mutual fund portfolio yielding (in my mind) only slightly higher averages. What kind of returns can you expect in the stock market? Well they say the market has gone up an average of 10% a year since Adam and Eve. Popular indexes like the DOW and the now more popular S&P500 have always, like real estate, "gone up over time." Now, these market averages are almost worshiped like golden cal...

Psychological intervention program improves breast cancer patients’ healt
2008-01-29 11:15:00 A new study conducted by researchers at the Ohio State University has suggested that psychological interventions not only reduce emotional distress among cancer patients but also improve their health. In a study of 227 breast cancer patients, the researchers found that those who took part in a psychological intervention program were rated as having better health by a research nurse, a full year after the program started. And one particularly important finding was that patients who exercised received a higher dose of their chemotherapy drug, possibly improving their overall treatment. “Patients who participated in the program showed fewer and less severe symptoms, and functioned better than those who didn’t take part,” said Barbara Andersen, co-author of the study and professor of psychology at Ohio State University. “These were independent health evaluations by nurses who didn’t know which patients were participating in the p...

In fact, based on statistics there were nearly 11.5 million surgical and nonsurgical procedures performed in the United States alone, as reported by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). If you’re to localize cosmetic surgeons in Chicago alone for sure you’ll get a big number since Chicago surgeons are one of those after sought surgeons in this field. Moreover, surgical procedures accounted for nearly 19% of the total with nonsurgical procedures making up 81% of the total.

How to avoid making psychological mistakes while currency trading
2008-01-26 20:46:00 Amelie Gam is an Internet writer for Forex Trading Plus. She just wrote an interesting article on psychological aspect of currency trading.According to Amelie, a trader exposes himself/herself to the higher risk of loss when he or she : - doesn't control human emotions; - acts upon fear or hope without basing own feelings on real facts; - exploits other people’s human emotions (people who are constant in their mistakes can not gain success and earn money); - is not disciplined, doesn't make plans, doesn't follow strategies, doesn't apply mathematical and money management principles; - doesn't run only profitable trades and doesn't try to cut losses as fast as possible; - uses rumors and advice without being certain of their authenticity and quality.

Understanding Important Hidden Psychological Aspects of Rent vs. Buy Compar
2007-11-30 11:29:00 This article, a third in a series, is about the softer side of rent vs. buy. These comparisons have become very popular and can easily be made using one of the many online calculators available. However, the psychological aspects of this comparison have yet to receive their deserved attention. (I still recommend reading this post about how to properly compare rent vs. buy financially as many calculators don’t make the correct comparison).As you may remember a correct comparison of rent vs. buy should be made for the same property in the same time frame where the two options are:1. Buy the property today and repay it through out the period.2. Rent the property today and buy it at the end of the period.The problem with the rent vs. buy comparison is, as always, the human factor. In order to compare rent vs. buy correctly some assumptions need to be made which are not at all easy to meet up with in real life.These assumptions are:1. We’re talking about the same property to either r...
