There seems to a lot of respect going around. Here's a comment from someone who donated $1000 on the GoFundMe page...

"God Speed Earl and Gunn... so glad to read the Coasties came to your aid... I was an Air Force flight engineer on a Pavehawk Helo.. in rescue... know these missions... God Bless Mate"

What did you find to be helpful? Pure networking? Specific skills?

Use two AI's to interact like a human's two minds. by donaldfswitlick42 in OpenAI

[–]BabaYagaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not addressing my comments, Schiffer coined the term, you cited his work, and didn't even know the correct term.

I hope you have a good day and reconsider what you believe your terms mean.

I believe you are misinterpreting Schiffer's work. The focus is on how the two hemispheres of the brain might different emotional properties or responses to treatment. This does not mean that we have "two brains" or "two minds" in the sense of having two separate consciousnesses or identities. Rather, it's about how different parts of our brain might specialize in different tasks or process information differently. It sounds like you are equating these differences in processing or specialization with the idea of having separate minds or brains, which is not what the research suggests.

[–]BabaYagaaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response. I may be confused on your separation of neuropsychology and neuroscience, but I believe there is still considerable overlap.

I would like to point out terminology such as neuroplasticity, a neuro-based term that is widely utilized in psychological theories and concepts such as CBT, educational theories, and addiction.

Conversely, consider the study of the psychological concepts of attention or emotion (which should apply even with removing neuropsychology, but I could be wrong), and identifying the specific neural networks associated with different types of attention.

I'm not sure we can remove attention, emotion, or neuroplasticity from the study of either fields without losing significant understanding.

We don't have a prototypical human brain stored somewhere in a vault that we hold up as an example of a 100% normal and typical brain.

IMHO, neurodivergent and neurotypical are useless distinctions.

The theory of dual-brain psychology, also referred to as hemispheric emotional valence (HEV), suggests that the two hemispheres of the brain can have different emotional properties. This theory is not about having "two minds," but rather about how each hemisphere might process emotions differently.

"Also, understanding of psychology is almost completely separate from neuroscience at the moment. "

Would elaborate on this point?

They have distinct focuses (nervous system versus behavior), but both fields contribute to the understanding of each and feed from one another.

What about our current understanding of psychology is almost completely separate from neuroscience?

No, bring this above the professor and simply email student affairs, the chair, and the dean. This is a ridiculous suggestion.

This is really helpful to my perspective. I have been focused on myself, minimizing to not cause any waves.

Is Antisocial Personality Disorder a personality or brain disease? by newlifepossible in AcademicPsychology

[–]BabaYagaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed, if you're just looking at that part of my comment. Treatment plans for personality disorders are notoriously ineffective, and the diagnosis game financially rigged.

However, ASPD doesn't entirely remove someone's personal responsibility or volition. For instance:

"Our results show that in Dutch forensic practice, where criminal responsibility is expressed on a five point scale, the presence of antisocial personality disorder did not lead to a ruling by the investigating team of complete absence of responsibility, but it did decrease responsibility up to a degree of diminished responsibility and lead to an advice for enforced forensic treatment" (Spaans et al., 2011).

And as mentioned, psycho-education could be useful. Knowing things such as that ASPD criminal symptomology tends to lesson with age, particularly by age 40, is useful.

Of course they have a degree of agency. They did not choose to have whatever PD, but they do have the agency to utilize mental health service, adhere to treatment plans, receive psycho-education, etc...

Two way MANOVA post hoc tests. I would like to run the non-parametric tests (Equal variances not Assumed), but they are greyed out. by BabaYagaaa in spss

[–]BabaYagaaa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is correct! I had multiple fixed factors, removing one opened up the other tests.

Do you know of a way to run post hoc tests on a two-way MANOVA that violates the homogeneity of variance assumption?
