RE:[tips] non-falsifiable hypotheses
Rick All the early research on the boundary conditions and exact requirements for cognitive dissonance (with the mechanisms outlined by Festinger). So early on people said: it is not cognitive dissonance. It is self-affirmation, or self-perception or impression management. But those theories all lead to the same predictions as the original Festinger study. So researchers had to figure out how to test the original study in a way that pitted each of these theories against each other. So eventually researchers figured out what the elements were that made each of these theories the best explanation. E.g., for self-perception theory to operate the attitude change does not have to motived by a desire to reduce discomfort, for impression management theory to be operating the person's private attitude does not have to change, and for self-affirmation to happen the change does not have to be directly related to the attitude-discrepant behavior. In the Festinger theory all these elements had to be true.

Res: [tips] Oliver Sacks
Beyond this and respecting whether Nick Nolte narrative reveals integrity or despair, it is obvious that both are present. In the first quote that Beth brought to us I think we could see mostly despair. Within the full interview we could observe both. Integrity and despair are the extremities of a continuum and then it is very difficult observe just one of these extremes. What is important to point out is that both Oliver Sacks and Nick Nolte are living the integrity vs despair crisis. But this discussion although important to me it is much less important than the feelings of loss I live when I read the interviews particularly that of Oliver Sacks. José — Em 20 de fevereiro de 2015, à(s) 01:51, Beth Benoit beth.ben...@gmail.com escreveu: Nick Nolte was born in 1941 and he remembers the food scarcity of WWII? He would have been four years old when it ended. And he shoveled coal into the furnace at night to keep the house warm? At four years old?? I have a granddaughter who is four, and trust me, she isn't going to remember specifics of lard distribution and would never be capable of shoveling coal into a furnace. Maybe we have a different issue going on now. Memory? Time to check in with Elizabeth Loftus.

It's always difficult to analyze from a distance. It sounds like he has some serious joint pain. That resonated with me.

After a day of skiing I resonate to that line from Rocky about calling a taxi to take him from the bed to the bathroom. It's easy to say pessimistic things under these circumstances.

[tips] non-falsifiable hypotheses
What are some examples you use of non-falsifiable hypotheses? I don't mean non-testable in the sense that it is not open to empirical investigation but non-falsifiable in the sense that there is no possible outcome that would falsify the hypothesis. I will summarize for the list. Thanks, Rick Dr. Rick Fromanhttp://bit.ly/16z4vcd Professor of Psychology Box 3519 John Brown University 2000 W.

RE: [tips] Oliver Sacks
I also read the entire interview given by Nolte and I didn't see evidence of despair or lack of ego integrity either. Yes, he openly discusses the difficulties that have come his way as he ages, such as those infernal aches and pains, losing friends to illnesses and coming to terms with a less close relationship with his son who now has his own family. But are not those the realities most people face as they age? On the other hand, his anecdote about attending his 50th HS reunion was sweetly amusing and upbeat. As he said, at first you don't recognize anyone but the connections are still there and, naturally, he discovers he still was in love with his HS sweetheart. I feel Nick Nolte is remarkably authentic for a Hollywood actor. We simply aren't accustomed to hearing a man express himself with such candor; i.e. he can cry everyday and he can laugh everyday. To me, this is someone who is sharing with amazing frankness how he is in touch with the sadness as well as the goodness of life on a daily basis. That's not despair but a honest expression of an emotional reality. And he certainly is still deeply engaged in what life has to offer. Have many of us will be starring in a film along side Robert Redford when in our 70's? Just BTW, I would highly recommend a small jewel of a film Nolte starred in titled Off the Black: Off the Black is a coming-of-age story of teenager Dave Tibbel (Morgan) who copes with his own distant father (Timothy Hutton) by forming an unlikely friendship with a disheveled, irascible high school umpire, Ray Cooke (Nolte). As they grow more dependent on each other, Ray asks Dave to go to his 40th high school reunion and pretend to be his son, a benevolent act of deception that winds up opening unexpected dimensions in the two men.

Re: [tips] Oliver Sacks
Nick Nolte was born in 1941 and he remembers the food scarcity of WWII? He would have been four years old when it ended. And he shoveled coal into the furnace at night to keep the house warm? At four years old?? I have a granddaughter who is four, and trust me, she isn't going to remember specifics of lard distribution and would never be capable of shoveling coal into a furnace. Maybe we have a different issue going on now. Memory? Time to check in with Elizabeth Loftus.
