The Ultimate Guide to Cognition

The Ultimate Guide to Cognition | Barbara Tversky

День тому

Acclaimed psychologist and longtime Stanford University professor Barbara Tversky calls on her nearly 50 years in the field of cognitive psychology for an in-depth discussion about how your brain works, and offers practical approaches to get it working even better.
Tversky joined the faculty at Stanford University in 1978, and she is currently an active Emerita Professor of Psychology. She is also a Professor of Psychology at Columbia Teachers College and the author of the 2019 book Mind in Motion: How Action Shapes Thought.
Her work focuses on the relationship between the spaces we inhabit and the actions we perform and how we think, create, and communicate.

I was watching something else and it finished and this came on.... and then this love filled face appeared - an intelligent and warm-eyed face - and such interesting content. I wish I'd had her for a teacher. Wonderful, thank you!!!

Babara is a Wonderful teacher. The interviewer did great here also. Was amusing how often she didnt speak the last one or 2 of a sentence. I do that sometimes and wonder later if it made sense to the person listening. Well I was able to know what Barbara meant so at least some people get the message and are able to " fill in the blanks". Definitely an underrated and under viewed video.

What a gift Barbara is. Thanks so much for this wonderful interview. After listening to this I'm off to buy Barbara's books.

this is amazing and wonderful - Barbra thank you for sharing your life work here like this ! I would like to offer as this cast finishes up , that the mind is more of a filter than a pre set function - it has it's tendencies , but if a crisis occurs , one space can be used for a different function than is typical . So , that said the only thing that actually structures , heals , and energizes the mind is music . The kinds of music we listen to is going to influence how our minds are structured and questing . They say that architecture is frozen music , and that seems to be the key to what may be going wrong with the reality of today , so disconnected with nature , and so disconnected with ourselves no matter how well we can language the situation , it is failing our mother source . Barbra is talking about the gate leading to the temple , to me , that is so profound . What a lovely woman .

Wow! Profound information. Where can I learn more? @ Jenniferarnold-delgado3489 ‘Architecture is frozen music’. 😮 As a pianist, music lover, dancer, I’ve always known these are the universal languages we can all speak without needing words. I’ve experienced this firsthand! Music can actually heal and restructure your brain? No wonder in times of stress, music and dance have been like air to me. They have literally felt like survival at times. Where do I learn more about their impact? And lastly, as an educator, I also think of what a terrible shame it is to not have music as a fundamental topic of learning for all children.

White boards already exist in Zoom, Google Meet, Etc. To the extent that white boards are a shared space (which they really aren't if there are more than three or four people in the group) they exist. Teachers of visual arts can put a camera on their hands as well as on their faces. It takes a little thinking but it can be done.

At the same time everything you know is a concept. Gnosis is the reaching beyond what is conceptually real and appreciating what is experientially real.

@@bellezavudd You are wilfully ignoring my distinction between mind and brain.

@bellezavudd Рік тому

@@sophiafake-virus2456 Not ignoring anything, just pointing out that this talk , by Dr Tversky, a PhD in cognitive psychology, focuses on and explores cognition. Cognition is a term referring to the mental processes involved in gaining knowledge and comprehension. These are higher-level functions of the brain/nervous system which encompasses language, imagination, perception, and planning. Cognitive psychology is the field of psychology that investigates how we think, and the processes involved in cognition. If I am pointing out what is obvious to you I meant no disrespect.

@@bellezavudd consciousness is not a product of the brain.

@bellezavudd Рік тому

@@sophiafake-virus2456 That is a popular opinion. Though from what I've heard not so much among people studying cognition at an academic level. Personally I wouldn't know. Though have read arguments for either side with very interesting theories. Can you share how you've come to your conclusion ?

@samanthasmile7746 Рік тому

So, is the TF really the other half of your soul? Or is that BS too? I had one and I’m over it all, have been for 2 years but since I’m on a search for the truth after waking up to the govt BS and now out of the new age BS, I’m curious as to what exactly the TF is. What I was told is that it’s the other half of your soul. You’re the positive (push) and they’re the negative (pull). Once your soul recognizes the other, the energies build up to the point that the negative side (the runner) runs and when this happens it causes the aggressor (positive side) to go into a dark night of the soul. And when they run, they have no idea why and those are things my TF used to say to me. That he didn’t want to break up with me and he had no idea why he was?? Idk? Was it just an evil entity? And why? Because it backfired in their faces, if so, because now I’m awake …like really awake that I know not to go to the light

@samanthasmile7746 Рік тому

So for me, the TF was the catalyst to my spiritual awakening
