Lec 1 | MIT 9.00SC Introduction to Psychology, Spring 2011

It’s never too late to learn something new!

What do you mean 11 years ago was 2012 and not 2008😭

seeing semester sucks. this is how im procrastinating

One of the glaring differences I notice between this and Yale is how this professor never cites the sources for the studies. At times it seems unnecessary, I suppose, and maybe it is for an intro course, but I just like to know where to find the study myself.

2024)

Thanks

These circles aren't measured and treated with calculated measures

The last experiment was so cool.

2025 Anyone?

the professor's so good at teaching that he made a 16 y/o watch the whole lecture

545 B.C. Anyone?

Thanks so much sir!

My favourite "illusion" is that when you turn to look at analog clock the seconds hand seems to stay put for a bit before continuing its normal ticking. That's because there is a delay between the light reaching your eyes and your brain processing the new view (of the clock). The first glance stays static until your brain has received enough information of the seconds hand ticking and then it starts to "predict" it to create a continuous feel for your consciousness.

2025 anyone 😂¢

2050 anyone?

actually i was born on mar 3!

I'm curious how attention problems can affect the gorilla experiment. I started to count, then lost interest when I wasn't able to keep track, and ended up seeing the gorilla.

We really need more money than cameras need ears

2024🎉

August 2024?

2025 anyone

what is the mind?

Watching this as an autistic person, I don't know how I have the disorder if y'alls brain forced you into automatic processing

Reading OF *Ov" doesn't affect because i am indian and in our pronunciation we don't use ov we just pronounce of and yeah i got tricked 😊

in my class we were 38 students and there was 2 pair of same birth date

Anyone else hear BaBa the first time?

Heard that having a community interested in same thing makes the journey better . If you are here makes you alike, so leave a comment, somehow we'd make ourselves as an entire community to learn together, and as someone who isn't pursuing psychology as profession ,at least right now, would like to know how others are planning their way to learn this subject. Good luck to everyone.

“The witch doctor says he knows how to cure. There are spirits inside which are trying to get out. You have to blow them out with an egg, and so on. Put a snakeskin on and take quinine from the bark of a tree. The quinine works. He doesn't know he's got the wrong theory of what happens. If I'm in the tribe and I'm sick, I go to the witch doctor. He knows more about it than anyone else.

“But I keep trying to tell him he doesn't know what he's doing and that someday when people investigate the thing freely and get free of all his complicated ideas they'll learn much better ways of doing it. Who are the witch doctors? Psychoanalysts and psychiatrists, of course.”

(The entire psychology department reportedly departed in offense at this.)

“If you look at all of the complicated ideas that they have developed in an infinitesimal amount of time, if you compare to any other of the sciences how long it takes to get one idea after the other, if you consider all the structures and inventions and complicated things, the ids and the egos, the tensions and the forces, and the pushes and the pulls, I tell you they can't all be there. It's too much for one brain or a few brains to have cooked up in such a short time.

“However, I remind you that if you're in the tribe, there's nobody else to go to.” — Richard Feynman, Nobel winner in physics, The Meaning of it all, 1963

He tries to define psychology as a science and then the first text he offers is about as unscientific as it gets and it even sounds. Misogynistic psychology is a pseudoscience at best. He's talking about things of a proper domain of neurology and behavioral Science. This is nothing. Don't waste your money or your time. This guy is a professional charlatan he's introducing you to a religious cult and young minds deserve better

2024 😊

watching this to become johan irl

Warp effect JBC = When a small viewing screen is presented within a computer ie video, it creates stability note as x, when the screen is expanded or made larger it’s stability is noted as x1, x to x1 is the measure of the psychological spatial latency that makes the video viewing slower even through the videos timings are exactly the same. The difference concentrations of focus are known as Warp Effect of JBC. And creates a mental residual special latency zone that frees access to do more per focus on the smaller video to the larger due to larger pixel intact and more colour and data processing.

Thanks a million ❤

I dunno 🤷‍♂️…. The maps that are shown are by psychologist .. I dunno I didn’t survey the pieces of land on those maps that are given, this could be a logical fallacy that appeals to an authority ….. I dunno anymore …

Just watched it again after a couple of years. October 16th 2024
