Age and Scientific Genius 1
Age and Scientific Genius 1 Age and Scientific Genius Chapter submission for Handbook of Genius, editor Dean Simonton (2014) Benjamin Jones, E.J. Reedy, and Bruce A. Weinberg January 2014 Abstract Great scientific output typically peaks in middle age. A classic literature has emphasized comparisons across fields in the age of peak performance. More recent work highlights large underlying variation in age and creativity patterns, where the average age of great scientific contributions has risen substantially since the early 20th Century and some scientists make pioneering contributions much earlier or later in their life-cycle than others. We review these literatures and show how the nexus between age and great scientific insight can inform the nature of creativity, the mechanisms of scientific progress, and the design of institutions that support scientists, while providing further insights about the implications of aging populations, education policies, and economic growth. Age and Scientific Genius 2 I. Introduction What is the relationship between age and scientific genius? This question has long fascinated scientists, the institutions that support scientific research, and the public at large. Understanding the nexus between age and great scientific insight can inform the nature of creativity, the mechanisms of scientific progress, and the design of institutions that support scientists. It can also shed light on subjects that at first blush seem farther afield, such as the implications of aging populations, education policies, and economic growth. The role of age in science has attracted the interest of both scientific greats and science policy leaders. Albert Einstein once quipped that “a person who has not made his great contribution to science before the age of thirty will never do so.” Meanwhile, a recent director of the National Institutes of Health declared the advancing age at which investigators receive their first NIH grant as “the greatest problem facing U.S. -

Roediger, III Washington University in St. Louis Abstract Fame in psychology, as in all arenas, is a local phenomenon. Psychologists (and probably academics in all fields) often first become well known for studying a subfield of an area (say, the study of attention in cognitive psychology, or even certain tasks used to study attention). Later, the researcher may become famous within cognitive psychology. In a few cases, researchers break out of a discipline to become famous across psychology and (more rarely still) even outside the confines of academe. The progression is slow and uneven. Fame is also temporally constricted. The most famous psychologists today will be forgotten in less than a century, just as the greats from the era of World War I are rarely read or remembered today. Freud and a few others represent exceptions to the rule, but generally fame is fleeting and each generation seems to dispense with the lessons learned by previous ones to claim their place in the sun. Keywords fame in psychology, scientific eminence, history of psychology, forgetting First, please take a quiz. Below is a list of eight names. done.

Teaching Contingencies Deleuze, Creativity Discourses, and Art By
Teaching Contingencies Deleuze, Creativity Discourses, and Art by Soodabeh Salehi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Education in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen's University Kingston, Ontario, Canada May, 2008 Copyright © Soodabeh Salehi, 2008 ISBN: 978-0-494-38515-9 Abstract This dissertation, flying between aesthetics, visual arts, and political/cultural/historical issues, traverses lines of stratification, and (de/re)territorialization to examine uncertainties in making and teaching art. In keeping with a conviction that nothing is unitary, that everything is always connected to countless others, Deleuze and Guattari’s metaphor of rhizome is the central organizing element in my work. My research questions what is meant by creativity, whether assumed to be a gift, talent, or innate quality, and what is meant by teaching art in university, which assumes creativity can be organized and developed. Differing discourses of creativity exhibit a general continuity of agreement that creation takes place within chaos, and forms where chaos and order meet each other. I posit that contemporary discourses of creativity hegemonically reinforce capitalism as a system of nomadic power and of constant de/reterritorialization. All, in a capitalist system, is linked to the construction of the urge to consume, and therefore the acceleration of capitalism necessitates an increase in the rate at which we manufacture venues for consumption, even in such innovative ways as by making creativity itself a consumable package. How do we resist this? From a Deleuzian point of view, creation is a becoming event, as destructive as productive. Creativity, which is about freedom, occurs on a plane of immanence which sifts chaos and multiplicity together to break lines. -

'Blind Variation and Selective Retention' Theory of Creativity
Gabora, L. (2011). An analysis of the blind variation and selective retention theory of creativity. Creativity Research Journal, 23(2), 155-165. doi:10.1080/10400419.2011.571187 An Analysis of the ‘Blind Variation and Selective Retention’ Theory of Creativity Liane Gabora University of British Columbia For correspondence regarding the manuscript: Liane Gabora Department of Psychology University of British Columbia Okanagan Campus, 3333 University Way Kelowna BC, Canada V1V 1V7 Email: [email protected] Tel: 250-807-9849 Fax: 250-470-6001 Gabora – BVSR ABSTRACT Picasso’s Guernica sketches continue to provide a fruitful testing ground for examining and assessing the Blind Variation Selective Retention (BVSR) theory of creativity. Nonmonotonicity—e.g. as indicated by a lack of similarity of successive sketches—is not evidence of a selectionist process; Darwin’s theory explains adaptive change, not nonmonotonicity. Although the notion of blindness originally implied randomness, it now encompasses phenomena that bias idea generation, e.g. the influence of remote associations on sketch ideas. However, for a selectionist framework is to be applicable, such biases must be negligible, otherwise evolutionary change is attributed to those biases, not to selection. The notion of ‘variants’ should not be applied to creativity; without a mechanism of inheritance, there is no basis upon which to delineate, for example, which sketch ideas are or are not variants of a given sketch idea. The notion of selective retention is also problematic. Selection provides an explanation when acquired change is not transmitted; it cannot apply to Picasso’s painting (or other creative acts) because his ideas acquired modifications as he thought them through that were incorporated into paintings and viewed by others. -

Intestinal Permeability
Bischoff et al. BMC Gastroenterology 2014, 14:189 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-230X/14/189 REVIEW Open Access Intestinal permeability – a new target for disease prevention and therapy Stephan C Bischoff1*, Giovanni Barbara2, Wim Buurman3, Theo Ockhuizen4, Jörg-Dieter Schulzke5, Matteo Serino6, Herbert Tilg7, Alastair Watson8 and Jerry M Wells9 Abstract Data are accumulating that emphasize the important role of the intestinal barrier and intestinal permeability for health and disease. However, these terms are poorly defined, their assessment is a matter of debate, and their clinical significance is not clearly established. In the present review, current knowledge on mucosal barrier and its role in disease prevention and therapy is summarized. First, the relevant terms ‘intestinal barrier’ and ‘intestinal permeability’ are defined. Secondly, the key element of the intestinal barrier affecting permeability are described. This barrier represents a huge mucosal surface, where billions of bacteria face the largest immune system of our body. On the one hand, an intact intestinal barrier protects the human organism against invasion of microorganisms and toxins, on the other hand, this barrier must be open to absorb essential fluids and nutrients. Such opposing goals are achieved by a complex anatomical and functional structure the intestinal barrier consists of, the functional status of which is described by ‘intestinal permeability’. Third, the regulation of intestinal permeability by diet and bacteria is depicted. In particular, potential barrier disruptors such as hypoperfusion of the gut, infections and toxins, but also selected over-dosed nutrients, drugs, and other lifestyle factors have to be considered. In the fourth part, the means to assess intestinal permeability are presented and critically discussed. -
