  • Attentional Limitations in Dual-Task Performance
    CHAPTER FOUR Attentional Limitations in Dual-task Performance Harold Pashler University of California, USA James C. Johnston NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, USA INTRODUCTION People's ability (or inability) to do different activities or tasks at the same time is a topic of much interest not only to psychologists, but also to the proverbial "person in the street". It is natural to wonder about what we as human beings can and cannot do. An understanding of our limitations should also have practical value, because the intelligent design of human/machine systems depends as much on knowing the capabilities of people as it does on knowing the capabilities of machines. Human performance limits have played an important role in catastrophes that have occurred in aviation and other fields; a better understanding of those limits might help in designing systems and procedures that can minimize the frequency of such disasters. Simultaneous performance of different tasks is intellectually intriguing as well. The limitations on simultaneous cognition may provide important clues to the architecture of the human mind. The notion that dual-task performance limitations have implications about the "unity of the mind" occurred to people long before the present era of information-processing psychology. In the late nineteenth century, for example, the educated public was fascinated with a phenomenon called "automatic writing", in which People were claimed to be able to write prose while carrying out other tasks (see Koutstaal, 1992). This chapter provides an overview of research on attentional limitations dual-task performance. The organization of the chapter follows a plan 155 4.

  • Supplemental Sheets ELEMENTAL DIGNITIES in TAROT Applying
    Supplemental Sheets ELEMENTAL DIGNITIES IN TAROT Applying elemental dignities analysis to a tarot reading helps identify the precise points of imbalances in a Seeker’s life or situation. The various energies and traits of a person (or even a situation) per Western theosophy can be categorized as Fire, Water, Air, or Earth in essence. For harmony in one’s life, there should be a balance of the four elements within. When two elements seem to vie for dominance and those elements are also in opposition, there will be flux, uncertainties, a sense of instability and insecurity. When active elements dominate, there may be a lack of peace, and instead, too much competition, battling, conflict, and strife. When passive elements dominate, there may be little progress, feeling overwhelmed, and controlled rather than in control. Interpreting a tarot reading by the card meanings help the Seeker understand what is going on; interpreting elemental dignities enhances that understanding by explaining why. Dignity as used in this context is defined as external manifestation of the card’s innate properties. It is the state of being activated with the full potential of its essence. An Elemental Dignity describes that state with more specificity—it is the external manifestation of a tarot card’s innate elemental essence, given that each card is governed innately by one of the four elements, Fire, Water, Air, or Earth, and thus has the potential of fully embodying the traits associated with that element. (Note however that the card’s energies would further be modified by the numerological correspondence and other factors.) Benebell Wen, www.benebellwen.com Holistic Tarot (North Atlantic Books, forthcoming 2014) Supplemental Sheets When a card from the suit of Wands is said to be dignified, it means it is fully charged and activated with the energies of its corresponding element.

    Raising the Bar: The Reciprocal Roles and Deviant Distinctions of Music and Alcohol in Acadiana by © Marion MacLeod A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Ethnomusicology Memorial University of Newfoundland June, 2013 St. John 's, Newfoundland ABSTRACT The role of alcohol in musical settings is regularly relegated to that of incidental by­ stander, but its pervasive presence as object, symbol or subject matter in Acadian and Cajun performance contexts highlights its constructive capacity in the formation of Acadian and Cajun musical worlds. Individual and collective attitudes towards alcohol consumption implicate a wide number of cultural domains which, in this work, include religious display, linguistic development, respect for social conventions, and the historically-situated construction of identities. This research uses alcohol as an interpretive lens for ethnomusicological understanding and, in so doing, questions the binaries of marginal and mainstream, normal and deviant, sacred and profane, traditional and contemporary, sober and inebriated. Attitudes towards alcohol are informed by, and reflected in, all ofthese cultural conflicts, highlighting how agitated such categorizations can be in lived culture. Throughout the dissertation, I combine the historical examples of HatTy Choates and Cy aMateur with ethnographic examinations of culturally-distinct perfonnative habits, attitudes toward Catholicism, and compositional qualities. Compiling often incongruous combinations of discursive descriptions and enacted displays, my research suggests that opposition actually confirms interdependence. Central to this study is an assertion that levels of cultural competence in Cajun Louisiana and Acadian Nova Scotia are uneven and that the repercussions of this unevenness are musically and behaviourally demonstrated.
