  • Article Cognitive Distortions and Hilarious Implementations of the Principles of Relevance Theory Iché V3
    Cognitive Distortions and Hilarious Implementations of the Principles of Relevance Theory: The Case of Coach in Cheers (NBC, 1982-1985) Virginie Iché, MCF, Université Paul Valéry Montpellier 3, EMMA EA 741 Cognitive distortions can result from two major sources: faulty processing of the physical world (mainly due to perceptual disabilities), or erroneous treatment of the information processed (due to flawed or poor inferential disabilities or to psychopathological disorders impacting the interlocutor’s inferential abilities). Cognitive impairments in otherwise healthy individuals—such as sudden vision loss, comprehension difficulties, language impairment, attention or memory disorders, to name but a few—are cause for worry and medical scrutiny, since they are usually the sign of brain decline, depression or even dementia. Additionally, these distortions impact the way speakers interpret their cognitive environment 1 and result in unconventional behavioral or discursive reactions. Coach, one of the main characters of the first three seasons of the American sitcom Cheers (1982-1985), displays many cognitive misfires over the episodes—all of which take place (almost exclusively) in a bar in Boston, run by a former baseball player named Sam Malone and tended by Ernie Pantusso, nicknamed “Coach” because he used to be a coach. Coach’s cognitive abilities are repeatedly shown to be flawed—he is unable to understand non-literal utterances, has recurrent memory lapses (even concerning his own name) and has a hard time analyzing his environment. The canned laughter that follows Coach’s cues suggests the cognitive impairments he suffers from and the discursive consequences these distortions have on the situation and the dialogue, are nothing to worry about though—they even prove to be one of the sitcom’s comic features.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 2008 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON, D.C. SAMUEL EPSTEIN December 9, 1919–September 17, 2001 BY HUGH P. TAYLOR JR . AND ROBERT N. CLAYTON AMUEL EPSTEIN WAS ONE of the principal geochemists re- Ssponsible for pioneering discoveries regarding variations of the stable isotopes of oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, and calcium on Earth, the Moon, and in meteorites. He was fortunate to have been at the forefront of great advances in the physics and chemistry of isotopes that were an outgrowth of atomic energy investigations in the wake of World War II. Although several scientists in the 1950s and 1960s recognized the power of stable isotope measurements to solve scientific problems, it was Sam more than anyone else who had the energy and insight to carry this out in such fundamental ways and in so many diverse fields, including: paleothermometry of carbonate fossils; geothermometry of minerals and rocks; origins of natural waters, including fluid inclusions in minerals; paleoclimatology records in glaciers, continental ice sheets, and tree rings; biological processes including living plants and animals, fossil plants and animals, and paleodiets; petroleum and natural gas; hydrothermal ore deposits; water and rock interactions; oceanography; meteorology; gases in Earth’s atmosphere; weathering and soil formation; studies of meteorites, lunar rocks, and tektites; and studies of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks and their constituent minerals.

  • Framing the Artists
    FRAMING THE ARTISTS Artists & Art in Film & Television Volume 1 Introduction Visual artists who are alive and working are given very little voice in mainstream media culture. While the American public takes great interest in the exploits of actors, popular musicians, and a few select writers, visual artists are almost never interviewed, discussed, or even acknowledged. Artists are generally ignored on television and in films until they are dead, their work causes a controversy, or they have created something that is easily parodied. Artists are far more likely to appear on news programs if they are child prodigies or if they create a minimally critical work that functions primarily as decoration or entertain- ment. For example, people carving animals out of wood with chainsaws, displays of ice sculptures, impressive sand castles, and elaborate food constructions arranged to look like objects or famous people are all events that have been featured by countless television variety hours. Americans also seem to like art that can be made right before their eyes – as though work by cult landscape painter, instructor, and art supply company brand name Bob Ross is somehow more honest because we can watch him paint it in (almost) real time. A live performance with an artistic feel by a figure skater or a dance troupe commands even greater attention. The American public rarely has an opportunity to watch a visual artist speak articu- lately and persuasively on prime time television – about something they have created, or about their reaction to an event that might affect their community. Film and television actors, however, are given the opportunity to be authorities on everything.
