Disorders of Volition Are Characterized by an Impairment Related to the Implementation of Decisions
1 Toward a Science of Volition Wolfgang Prinz, Daniel Dennett, and Natalie Sebanz This book aims at improving our understanding of the processes supporting volun- tary action by looking at conditions in which the will is impaired or even breaks down. We use this introductory chapter to prepare the ground for contributions by philoso- phers, psychologists, neuroscientists, and psychiatrists that tackle the experience of acting intentionally, the ability to make decisions and implement one’s goals, and the many ways in which the experience and the exertion of willful behavior can be dis- turbed. In the first part of this introduction, we describe the status of the will as we see it in present and past thinking. In the second part of the chapter, we provide an overview of the contributions in this book. 1.1 Studying the Will When trying to decipher the forbidding complexity of the mind/brain, the standard simplifying assumption is that it is an “input–output system” in which perception goes in and (control of) action eventually comes out. We experimenters then work from the outside in, first getting control and understanding of the peripheral input systems, and postponing difficult questions about the center, which is shrouded in fog and mystery. This makes sense but risks distorting our vision of the whole, since we seldom if ever find ways of even posing questions about the requirements for the more central components that must eventually get transformed into the highest levels of outbound or “inside-out” traffic. This potential for distortion is exacerbated by two further sources of distraction: introspection and the demands of free will. -

Women's Life During the Chosŏn Dynasty
International Journal of Korean History(Vol.6, Dec.2004) 113 Women’s Life during the Chosŏn Dynasty Han Hee-sook* 1 Introduction The Chosŏn society was one in which the yangban (aristocracy) wielded tremendous power. The role of women in this society was influenced greatly by the yangban class’ attempts to establish a patriarchal family order and a Confucian-based society. For example, women were forced, in accordance with neo-Confucian ideology, to remain chaste before marriage and barred from remarrying once their husbands had passed away. As far as the marriage system was concerned, the Chosŏn era saw a move away from the old tradition of the man moving into his in-laws house following the wedding (男歸女家婚 namgwiyŏgahon), with the woman now expected to move in with her husband’s family following the marriage (親迎制度 ch΄inyŏng jedo). Moreover, wives were rigidly divided into two categories: legitimate wife (ch΄ŏ) and concubines (ch΄ŏp). This period also saw a change in the legal standing of women with regards to inheritance, as the system was altered from the practice of equal, from a gender standpoint, rights to inheritance, to one in which the eldest son became the sole inheritor. These neo-Confucianist inspired changes contributed to the strengthening of the patriarchal system during the Chosŏn era. As a result of these changes, Chosŏn women’s rights and activities became increasingly restricted. * Professor, Dept. of Korean History, Sookmyung Women’s University 114 Women’s Life during the Chosŏn Dynasty During the Chosŏn dynasty women fell into one of the following classifications: female members of the royal family such as the queen and the king’s concubines, members of the yangban class the wives of the landed gentry, commoners, the majority of which were engaged in agriculture, women in special professions such as palace women, entertainers, shamans and physicians, and women from the lowborn class (ch’ŏnin), which usually referred to the yangban’s female slaves. -

Cognitive Dissonance Theory Has Been Reformulated by Some Authors Since the Original Statement (Festinger, 1957) Ap- Peared in T
Japanese Psychological Research 1980, Vol.22, No.1, 32-41 ATTRIBUTION OF PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND DISSONANCE REDUCTION HARUKI SAKAI AND KIYOSHI ANDOW 1 University of Tokyo The relationship between personal responsibility and dissonance reduction was investigated in a situation where an individual had to undergo a negative consequence caused by an agent beyond his control, i.e., by chance. Eighty participants received either strong or weak electric shock, depending on the oddness or evenness of spots of a die thrown either by the experimenter (Ex- perimenter-Caused condition) or by the participant himself (Participant- Caused condition). It was found that participants in the Participant-Caused condition evaluated electric shocks less painful, estimated their heart rates to be less faster, and perceived the experimenter more intelligent and favorable than participants in the Experimenter-Caused condition. These results were interpreted as lending support to the newly reformulated dissonance theory. Cognitive dissonance theory has been tion may be observed only to the degree reformulated by some authors since the that the individual sees himself as re- original statement (Festinger, 1957) ap- sponsible for bringing cognitions into an peared in the late 1950s.

The definition we will solve This can be generalized: In the mind, a sensory neuron fires and a sensation here includes: def - The state of being characterized by sensation, emotion, occurs, whether color, taste, smell, etc. There is nothing that would rule out a volition, thought, and awareness of something within oneself. special sensor that when fired produces the sense of consciousness! This is distinguished from other senses as it’s source is internal, not external. The logical function could be sense of: Analysis Consciousness = OR(Thought,Emotion,Volition,Introspection) From the Communication “Pretty Good Sentience” we see that sensor input of C = OR(TEVI) red, green and blue light into the eye are 1) detected, and equally or more importantly are 2) sensed as a color. These are the 3 primary colors the human eye can sense. Additionally the human eye can sense night vision brightness, which mostly lacks colors, it’s more black and white brightness. It is seemingly impossible to present externally what a persons sensation of a color like red is, Source Destination Sense except to compare to other things that match redness. Everyone, except for color-blind people, agrees the crayon labeled red is red, so people can communicate sensed colors to each other. But nobody knows if a persons Photon → eye cone Neuron(s) Primary color R,G,B sensation of redness is actually the same as another persons. -
Spontaneous Hypnosis in the Ÿ Or En Sic Context
Spontaneous Hypnosis in the ÿ or en sic Context John 0.Beahrs, MD "Hypnosis" denotes either specific phenomena (altered volition, perception, cog- nition, and recall) or interpersonal transactions that often elicit them. Basic research leads to paradox: hypnosis is validated, and shown to be dissociative in essence, at the same time that neither its phenomena nor transactions can be separated from those of everyday living without logical absurdity. This paradox can be resolved by assuming that consciousness and volition are complex, occurring simultaneously at many levels in the same waking individual. Hypnotic-like phenomena and transac- tions occur spontaneously, in either covert or overt forms. The former are pervasive, whereas the latter are often associated with psychological trauma. Forensic impli- cations are twofold: for criminal responsibility, and the reliability of eyewitness testimony. Hypnotic-like states and transactions are rarely affirmed as an insanity defense because at some level these subjects are aware of what they are doing and why. Diminished capacity and mitigation of sentence are more appropriate defense strategies. Several conflicted traditions of case law have evolved to protect eyewitness testimony from hypnotic-like distortions in cognition, perception, and memory that can occur either during or outside of formal hypnotic procedures. These include the admissibility of posthypnotic testimony, due process safeguards at eyewitness identification procedures, and the admissibility of expert testimony on the findings of eyewitness research. These areas are inseparable from one another and demand a systematic coordinated approach. The word "hypnosis" is used to denote nomena include a shift toward either certain unexplained phenomena, subjective nonvolition (a hand "just interpersonal transactions that often lifts"), altered perception that can in- elicit them, or a formal ritualistic pro- clude positive and negative hallucina- cedure. -

Whether actions are voluntary or not influence the cognitive process of 4 action generation and perception of action. The influence of volition on deciding actions at a later point in time 5 is a less explored dimension. A voluntary decision on future action requires that the intention must be stored in 6 the prospective memory until the intended action is performed. It is unknown if the distinction between freely 7 chosen actions and externally dictated actions has a cognitive relevance for delayed intentions. -

Korea in the Age of Empires Hist 233 (Cross-Listed with EALC 141) DRAFT: READINGS/REQURIEMENTS SUBJECT to CHANGE
Korea in the Age of Empires Hist 233 (cross-listed with EALC 141) DRAFT: READINGS/REQURIEMENTS SUBJECT TO CHANGE Korea in the Age of Empires (1250–Present) This seminar examines Korea’s historical relations with various imperial powers from the early modern period to the present. Korean states faced off the Mongol invasions in the 1250s, maintained largely peaceable, if delicate relations with the Ming and Qing empires in China from the fourteenth to eighteenth centuries, and balanced competing Western imperial powers, but succumbed to Japanese colonization after 1910. After Korea’s liberation in 1945, rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States led to Korea’s present division between North and South. What explains the differences and similarities between these epochs? How did Korean polities negotiate their political autonomy and cultural identity over this period? What informed the choices of individual Korean actors to resist, appropriate, or collaborate with empire? How do the legacies of this history inform North and South Korea in the international system of today? This course will also interrogate the relationship between international relations and human agency, by thinking about “empire” not only as an imposition by a foreign powers, but also the institutions and ideologies of empire were employed by Korean actors. It will therefore also explore Korean use of the ideologies these empires espoused, such as Confucianism, Modernism, Nationalism, and Communism, in addition to how they were contested among Koreans themselves. It will therefore also pay particular attention to the perspectives of individuals whose lives were intertwined or impacted by these histories.
