Jerry Kang: Immaculate perception?
Jerry Kang is a Professor of Law and Asian American Studies at UCLA. His work examines the legal implications of socio-cognitive implicit bias, or unintentional racism. Our ability to judge whether we are racist may not even be obvious to us if we look deeply at ourselves. Kang disseminates the work of other cognitive neuroscientists who study implicit bias and stereotype threat, and he extrapolates the implications of this work in a legal setting. He has received the highest honor for his teaching at UCLA, the University Distinguished Teaching Award in 2010.

The JiVitA Project in Bangladesh will examine the effects of weekly maternal vitamin A supplementation during pregnancy along with newborn vitamin A supplementation on cognitive development of children at 8 years of age. The findings will help to elucidate the preventable effects of micronutrient deficiencies during critical early stages of neurobehavioral development on cognition of children at ages when they usually start school.

- Tricks of Influence - 7 Biases and Psychological Artistry -
September 2012
Hi
A key question for you is what do you think moves people to change behaviour? What are the 7 key biases that we all have which lie behind making decisions and choices?
Being able to answer these questions means understanding influence and decision making processes. Influence is the driving force for us making the most of our resources.
. Introduction
. Choices - The 7 Cognitive Biases
. Standing Out From Countless Distractions
. A Better Show-reel
. Sleight of Mind Set Workshops

The ability to influence, appear to be able to dictate and predetermine people's choices and actions lie behind much that we cover in our SMS workshops. We're now very excited to be able to offer to you a number of open workshops dedicated to showing you mind magic and psychological artistry and how to apply it to what you do. We call this these the Sleight of Mind Set Workshops (click here for more information) or visit mindsways.com/SMS/
The ideas and material in this workshop is designed to reinforce and expand upon your delivery and interventions. Following on from the recent successes we are now holding the SMS workshops in Birmingham, Bath, Glasgow and London during November.
CHOICES - THE 7 COGNITIVE BIASES
Our choices are driven by our cognitive biases, 7 of the most important ones that we make use of in Psychological Artistry are:
Availability bias
Conformational bias
Illusion of control
Clustering or patterning fallacies
The Forer effect
Anchoring
Framing effect
There are many more, but understanding just these 7 gives us massive insights on our own decision making processes and also makes a large impact on how we influence other people's decisions and choices. In addition to these other biases come into play that have an impact on our lives and business. Some of these are:
Distinction bias
Egocentric bias
Information bias
Belief bias
We use to psychological artistry to both illustrate and understand these processes in a non threatening yet challenging way.
Mind Magic uses these and other techniques to give you the appearance of being able to accurately direct, dictate and influence people's choices. Being able to apply these techniques and ideas, as well as carry out these effects, increases your understanding of the psychological forces and shows others that you work with them.
These forces have real and practical impact on our lives daily. The SMS day uses mind magic as a lens to focus and clearly illustrate these psychological biases, whilst at the same time equipping you with an approach that is entertaining and engaging. This can prove a powerful way to engage a variety of people.
STANDING OUT FROM THE COUNTLESS DISTRACTIONS
With countless distractions coming at us from all angles, we must be able to stand out from the crowd, grab attention and more importantly, be able to hold attention. The skills and techniques that are embedded within Psychological Artistry are designed to do just that. I have coached and trained with this approach and found that through this, many areas can be dealt with, such as:
Developing confidence
Communication skills
Understanding behaviours
Biases ( social and cognitive)
How we experience the world
Self expression
Thinking skills
We are about uncovering the patterns of human behaviour whilst being
Entertained
Fascinated
Mystified
Enlightened
A BETTER SHOW-REEL
"To win more pitches, you need a better show-reel." John Hegarty - Hegarty on Advertising
We are looking to add to your "show-reel" by teaching you these techniques, routines and effects. A warning though, they must be treated like the special effects we see in films. They are there to enhance and illustrate what you do. A movie that is all special effects and no story makes for a boring film. Sometimes the best special effects are invisible. You will learn to use the Psychological Artistry toolbox of special effects to enhance and illustrate what you deliver.
SLEIGHT OF MIND SET WORKSHOPS
On these days, you will follow us down a path that will capture your imagination, giving you a complete skill set of astonishment, amazement and wonder. You will experience the worlds of Psychological Artistry, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking, Stagecraft and Magic, as well as partake in an experience that defies and twists logic and scientific understanding.
The day will challenge you to think about your delivery in entirely different ways. You will uncover your ability to step out of the logical box and view what you do from an entirely new perspective.
These workshops are all about enabling you to learn, appreciate and apply mind magic and psychological artistry to what you do. The approach is not traditional, but that is where its strength lies, particularly when advertising and adding value to others.
The programme includes two packs of material, the SNT (Show Not Tell) kit and the SMS (Sleight of Mind Set) pack; these include 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques that allow you to deliver what you learn. The material here is not readily available but is assembled in packs ready for you to take away and use.
We are engaged with a wide range of people and organisations, but all of them have one thing in common; they are all people who work with people. They all want to increase their performance; they are all searching for methods to improve what they do, they are all seeking something different. It is our objective to meet this outcome and we are doing it through using Psychological Artistry. For more information about the workshops please click here or visit www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
FEEDBACK
We have both been very pleased with previous feedback, with people saying it was "mind blowing" and "totally new". We are now seeing that we are meeting your expectations and adding value, which is very important to us. To see what people have said see www.mindsways.com/about/what-people-say/
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
Psychological Artistry has at its heart Mind magic a tradition that has intrigued, entertained and drawn people in for over a century. We wrap around and mix in the science of social psychology, NLP, neuroscience and smart thinking. We take the building blocks of magic and psychology, and transform them so that you can use them to show people what you do, as well as what makes you different and worthy of their time. This leads us down a path where our focus is on learning by doing and through showing not telling. This produces an approach that is different enough to draw people to your projects or ideas.
We do this by weaving together overlapping areas of delivery such as:
Psychology
Influence
NLP
Presentation Skills
Human Behaviour
Stagecraft
Performance
Confidence
Story Telling
Engagement
Magic ideas and techniques
Today in this society which is rapidly changing and evolving our visibility is vital. You must be able be visible. You must be able to deliver new ideas and present established ideas in new ways. One of the easiest ways to do this is to appeal to novelty.
The skills and experiences you can gain from Psychological Artistry allow you to absorb these new ideas into your world, full of your own experiences and thoughts. Use these for encouraging and illustrating self awareness and the power the environment and our circumstances has in how we think and behave.
This acts as a vehicle for you to stand out and make an impact with your ideas.
AN EXAMPLE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
A couple of interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or visit mindsways.com/community. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
OTHER SERVICES
The SNT kit is available separately. We are currently shipping this worldwide with very positive feedback. If you are curious to see more, please click here.

The American Heart Association operates a health assessment and improvement tool called “My Life Check”
I completed the check with two different situations, a normoglycemic individual and a person with hyperglycemia. Both individuals are advised not to skip dessert, with a key word substitution - “ Your sweet tooth won't miss the added sugars.” for the person with hyperglycemia, “Your sweet tooth won't miss the saturated fats” for the person without. The banana advice is taken away for the person with hyperglycemia.
The assessment does not ask about validated measures of heart health, including triglycerides or HDL.
The assessment does not include or ask about consumption of 100% fruit juice as a sugar sweetened beverage. American Heart Association certifies 100% fruit juices in practice.
In September, the AHA came under fire for posting a breakfast recipe on Twitter that suggested adding maple syrup honey and orange juice to an already high-carbohydrate mixture for heart health.

Vocational training and cognitive behavioural therapy form the backbone of many rehabilitation programmes around the world. Drawing from the Inspire Project and Bangkok Rules, Thailand has developed corrections-based rehabilitation programmes that equip prisoners with the skills and knowledge needed to create products, seek employment opportunities, and reintegrate into society.
DOVER, Del. - On September 10, 2014, Lt. Governor Matt Denn joined the staff of BayHealth and others to help them launch a collaborative partnership with Project SEARCH, an international school-to-work program that prepares people with disabilities for full-time employment.
Bayhealth’s partners in Project SEARCH are the Capital School District, Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, Community of Integrated Services, POW&R (Autism Delaware), and the Department of Education.
Project SEARCH was developed in 1996 for young adults, 18 years of age and eligible for the last year of public education, who have significant cognitive disabilities and would benefit from a workforce development program. The Project SEARCH High School Transition Program is a unique, business-led, one year school-to-work program that takes place entirely at the workplace. Total workplace immersion facilitates a seamless combination of classroom instruction, career exploration, and hands-on training through worksite rotations.
Students in the Project SEARCH program at BayHealth will attend classes focused on teaching employability skills and rotate through 17 departments at the hospital. The interns have completed their first two weeks of school and have been very busy orienting themselves around the BayHealth campus.
Award-winning photojournalist, Karim Ben Khelifa, is widely known for his coverage of the Middle East conflicts, especially the Iraq and Afghan wars, where he covered the insurgent sides. While a Fellow at the Open Documentary Lab at MIT, Ben Khelifa designed and prototyped his latest project The Enemy. This immersive installation uses VR to bring the audience into conversations between enemies within longstanding global conflicts. During his residency, he collaborated with Fox Harrell of the Imagination, Computation and Expression (ICE) Laboratory, to integrate concepts from cognitive science and Artificial Intelligence-based interaction models into the project to engender empathy.
On Day 2 of SXSW 2016 (Saturday, March 12), I checked out a few of the sponsor lounges including the IBM Cognitive Lounge, which took over the Vince Young Steakhouse (301 San Jacinto Blvd.). Among the many interesting exhibits were several robots, including this one that uses IBM's Watson platform to play Rock, Paper, Scissors.

RELATIONSHIPS CHALLENGES.
It is important to care for oneself because neglecting one's own well-being can lead to negative consequences, such as physical and emotional exhaustion, burnout, and a negative impact on relationships and overall quality of life. Self-care includes activities that promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being, such as exercise, eating well, getting enough sleep, managing stress, and having a social support system. When individuals take care of themselves, they are better able to handle the demands and pressures of life, and they are more able to support and care for others. Additionally, self-care can help to prevent or alleviate the development of mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, individuals need to make self-care a priority in order to maintain overall well-being.
Brain injury can significantly impact relationships, causing couples physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges. Memory loss, difficulty with communication, physical changes, and emotional changes can all strain the relationship and make it difficult for the couple to connect. Caregiving responsibilities can also be overwhelming, leading to feelings of burnout or resentment. Counseling can provide support and guidance for both the injured person and their loved one to navigate these challenges and find ways to maintain their relationship and intimacy. It can also help the loved one understand the changes in their loved one, navigate practical aspects of caregiving and take care of their well-being. Overall, counseling is an important step in helping couples cope with the aftermath of a brain injury.
A counselor can help a couple navigate the challenges that arise after a brain injury by providing support, guidance, and practical strategies for coping. They can help the injured person and their loved one understand the changes that have occurred due to the brain injury, and provide them with tools for communicating and interacting with one another. Additionally, a counselor can provide guidance on navigating the practical aspects of caregiving, such as managing finances, coordinating medical appointments, and dealing with legal and insurance issues. They can also provide support and coping strategies for the loved one, who may face significant emotional and physical challenges due to their role as a caregiver. Furthermore, they can help the couple adapt to the new circumstances and find ways to maintain the relationship and intimacy despite the challenges caused by the brain injury.
Brain injury can cause a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms that can create problems for couples.
