Hi Reads somewhat flakey to me (not a technical psychology word, I know), and largely irrelevant to the study of neuroscience. It would be good to know if Tranel was commenting simply on Holmes's suitability for graduate study in neuroscience, or on something more.
Take care Jim James M.

One can assume that Tranel was picking up on some salient things in Holmes' file, some of which have not yet been made public (I believe). Some statements in Holmes' letter of intent strike me as a bit odd, although admittedly I may be guilty of hindsight bias here (certainly, the letter is not patently psychotic). ...Scott Scott O. Lilienfeld, Ph.D. Professor Department of Psychology, Room 473 Emory University 36 Eagle Row Atlanta, Georgia 30322 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>; 404-727-1125 The Master in the Art of Living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his intellectual passions. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him - he is always doing both. - Zen Buddhist text (slightly modified) From: Michael Britt [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, August 10, 2012 11:27 AM To: Lilienfeld, Scott O Subject: Your OK on a YouTube video Hi Scott, I wanted to get in touch to ask you if it would be okay for me to put a quote from you onto YouTube and into a free app I created along with another psychologist (the PsychGuide app for introduction to psychology majors). In a section of the app in which we describe what Clinical Psychologists do for a living I wanted to insert this clip of you (from your interview with me on The Psych Files) in which you explain how the technique of exposure works. I created a brief YouTube video by combining the audio clip with a picture of you (from your site at Emory) along with a list of a few of your books and a link to your site at Emory (happy to change any of this if you wish) The clip is currently private. Here's what you can hear/see it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb4NsFUJxrU Let me know if that's okay with you, Michael Michael A.
