Notes de l'éditeur
- 1800-luvun lopun erinomainen psykologi ja lääkäri, modernin psykologian perustajia Intuition ja sen kehittämisen puolestapuhuja, kunnes psykologian valtasi behaviorismi ja opittujen käyttäytymismallien tutkiminen
- Yleinen Vasen-oikea –aivopuolimalli on aika lailla harhaanjohtava Meillä kaikilla on näitä ominaisuuksia, jotka usein mielletään vasemman tai oikean aivopuoliskon ominaisuuksiksi Intuitio on samoin usein mielletty oikean aivopuoliskon toiminnoksi Ominaisuudet eivät kuitenkaan sijaitse näin vasemmalla tai oikealla Yhtä lailla on virheellistä ajatella, että ihmiset ovat vasemman tai oikean aivopuoliskon käyttäjiä Kaikki ominaisuudet ovat käytettävissämme ja niistä voidaan löytää jälkiä useilta puolilta aivoja Harjoittelun määrä on ratkaisevaa – se mitä käytät, siinä kehityt
- Entä sitten käytäntö? Otetaan esimerkki: Ryhmä palomiehiä menee esimiehen käskystä palavan talon katolle, tekemään reikiä kattoon, jotta palon kulkua saadaan ohjattua. Katolle kiipeää ryhmälle tuntematon, toinen esimies. Tämä kävelee katolla ja pyytää reikää tekeviä poistumaan katolta välittömästi. Katto romahtaa alas. Kun esimieheltä kysytään, mistä hän tiesi, että katto romahtaa, hän kertoo: “Katto tuntui liian joustavalta, tiesin, että jotain on pielessä. Ehkä rakenteet olivat pehmenneet.” Tämänkaltainen ennakkoaavistaminen perustuu hyvin sisäistettyin kokemuksiin siitä, miten tietyt tilanteet yleensä kehittyvät. Meille muodostuu sisäisiä tarinallisia odotteita, joita seuraamalla voimme aavistaa, mitä tulee tapahtumaan ja voimme huomata, jos tapahtuukin jotain tarinasta poikkeavaa, yllättävää. Tällainen luonnollinen aavistava, intuitiivinen päättely on tutkittua ja se selittyy hyvin asiantuntijoiden sanattomalla tiedolla. Se ei ole kuitenkaan ainoa intuition muoto. Lähde: Sources of Power – How People Make Decisions, Gary Klein
- Linear regression estimates the optimal beta weights for the predictors, based on past data. However, in the 70s already, researchers found out that random weighting of predictors gave better FORECASTS. Such was born tallying (which is all equally weighted) Take-the-best consists of three building blocks: 1. Search rule: Search through cues in order of their validity. 2. Stopping rule: Stop on finding the first cue that discriminates between the objects (i.e., cue values are 1 and 0). 3. Decision rule: Infer that the object with the positive cue value (1) has the higher criterion value. Take-the-best is a member of the one-good-reason family of heuristics because of its stopping rule: Search is stopped after finding the first cue that enables an inference to be made
- Forecasting the future Philip Tetlock (Pennsylvania University, psychology & management) wanted to know if experts are better than chance, simple algorithms or everyday pundits at predicting the future. He set out to study this by studying a group of policy experts, with domain expertise in their respective fields Future is by definition unknowable (to a degree) and it cannot be rationally known, there is always a degree of intuitive guessing involved.
- Tetlock’s main findins were summarised in his 2005 book: Expert political Judgment He studies c. 300 experts, for about 20 years, tracking 28 000 predictions. Result: Simple statistical algorithm (extrapolation) does better than most of the experts Most experts do not correct for their errors, even when it is systematic and when they are told about it The results are game-theoretically understandable: you are disproportionately punished for being WRONG alone, than being rewarded for being right alone (or together with somebody else) So, people copy each other and nobody wants to be seen as a party-pooper, so they don’t want to give differing forecasts, even if they feel it is true Further, when they don’t get it right, even with their best predictions (excluding the self-censorship), forecasters do NOT learn and are not willing to discuss their failures openly Cognitive dissonance works strongly, even with experts: ”Mistakes were made (but not by us)” In summary: experts are NO better than blind monkeys throwing dart at the board while believing they are consistently hitting near the bull’s eye.
- CASE: Forecasting future recession by country (one year ahead) Tetlock and others have noted what is painfully obvious about important forecasts - they are almost all wrong, consistently and little is done to correct for the systemic bias in the errors (the following data from IMF researchers, 2014): Timespan 2008-2012, Question: will there a be a recession next year and in which country Experts: hundreds of professional economic forecasters Baseline comparison: 88 recessions happened in different countries during timespan Result 1: None of the 2008-2009 recessions (62) were predicted by any experts in the sampling (in the previous year) Result 2: 8 of the 7 recession from 2010 were predicted and all for the wrong countries Result 3: the same overconfidence and positive bias continued for 2011 and 2012, prediction way less recessions than what actually happened Discussion: Expert economics forecasters are guilty of systematic overconfidence and positive bias. They rarely compensate for this, even when it’s known and this bias stays constant (it is not a one time fluke). In general there are no incentives or willingness to react to corrective feedback (i.e. change predictions or learn at systemic level) Further: predictions from the most important economic watchdogs, like OCED, IMF or Central Banks were not any better. In summary: economics as a profession, even the best experts are almost useless when it comes to predicting things like recession/depression or peak of a bubble (or even existence of a bubble in a pricing of an asset).
- What else did Philip Tetlock found in his research: Two types of forecaster types: hedgehogs and foxes Hedgehogs - Know one big thing (parsimonious, one big story, one big explainer, can be big believers, want to predict and have high self-confidence) One simple frugal heuristic, that doesn’t change, even if the world changes Dominate blogosphere, news and discussions Worst predictors based on results Foxes Know many small things (many ideas, not necessarily cohesive, sceptical of big theories, don’t want to predict, have lower confidence) Blink, willingness to change Less willing to go out and predict, usually clearly better than hedgehogs Both hedgehogs and foxes really bad at predicting - No difference in accuracy based on age, experience, political party, amount of training, higher education, sex, etc. No great, meaningful difference, just based on whether you are fox or hedgehog, as basic statistic almost always win Most have the same problems: too quick to make up their mind, too slow to change opinoins, fall in love with one’s own ideas Caveat emptor - This is for predicting the future events of world at large (or continuation of some trends) If you want to change the world, hedgehogs may do more likely big changes (stubborn), but may crash and burn. Foxes are more agile, and adapt more to the changing surrounding, not necessarily changing it so much Are there better forecaster? Good Judgment Project tries to find out 20 000 pros do forecasting on selected targets Everybody is given constant feedback on how well they did Everybody has to rate their own forecasting confidence (how sure are they that their prediction will turn out to be correct?) 3000 civilians with no expertise also do it (open to all), no special skills, just following the news, predicting based on their reading & feel The best c. 100 forecasters put together are 30% better than US intelligence agencies in predicting future outcomes Wisdom of the crowds - and here it is selective, self-evaluating, fox-like, elite crowd - really can work! Round for next prediction starts in July 2015, you can still join
- Further tips from Tetlock’s research (mnemonic: CHAMP): Comparisons are important: use several, relevant comparisons, don’t get stuck on single trends Historical trends give contexts: look at history, cycles and averages -- unless you have a strong reason to expect change Average opinions: experts disagree a lot – usually mid-point is more accurate than either extreme (but not always!) Mathematical models: when there are models, that have been known to be right in similar situations, take them into account Predictable biases are everywhere, everybody falls for them. Hope is not a strategy nor a forecast. Let go of forecasts in the face of news that prove predictions wrong
- Two modes of approaching decision making Avoid risk Aim for the win If the two are not in balance, either a wipeout (catastrophic risk) or mediocre copying (no new insights) can result Both are needed. Companies often concentrate more on risk avoidance and can’t utilize insights or don’t know how to get them.
- Flow-triggers Psychological triggers Intensely focused attention: singular, sometimes solitude (multi-tasking is out) Clear Goals: what (well defined) and why (what for) Immediate Feedback: Action -> Feedback delay clear, honest and real-time Challenge/Skill ratio c. 105%: with constant adjustment Environmental triggers High consequences: elevated risk, survival, even danger Rich environment: novel, unpredictable, complex Deep Embodiment: total physical awareness of your body and it’s signals Social Triggers Serious Concentration: here and now, observe Shared Clear Goals: not too narrow, if creativity is needed, boundary objects can help Good Communication: real-time, small signals, flowing (instead of fighting) Familiarity glue: common language, shared motives, lots of experiential shared time Equal Participation (& utilization of own skill level): everybody has a meaningful role to play, no sofa-surfers Risk of Failure: there are emotional stakes in the game Sense of control (can be an outcome, not a trigger also, so feeds back): autonomy, agency, competency & results Close listening: flowing based on what is now, instead of hammering on pre-decided notions Always say ”Yes”: Add to arguments, don’t stop them Creativity triggers Recognize patterns Take a risk on new, unproven, ideas
- Once she was working for two years with a most challenging mutation issue. Years later her colleague asked her how she could have worked for two years without knowing what was going to come out. “It never occurred to me that there was going to be any stumbling block. Not that I had the answer, but [I had] the joy of going at it. When you have that joy, you do the right experiments. You let the material tell you where to go, and it tells you at every step what the next step has to be because you’re integrating with an overall brand new pattern in mind. You’re not following the old one; you are convinced of a new one. And you let everything you do focus on that. You can’t help it, because it all integrates. There were no difficulties.” (pp.125) With Neurospora … Unwilling to accept her failure to see these minute objects under the microscope – to pick them out as individuals with continuity – she retreated to sit, and meditate, beneath the eucalyptus trees. There she “worked on herself”. When she felt she was ready, she returned to the microscope, and the chromosomes were now to be seen, not only by her, but, thereafter, by others as well. (148) If this were a story of insight arrived at by reflection, it would be more familiar. Its real force is a story of eyesight, and of the continuity between mind and eye that made McClintock’s work so distinctive and, at the same time, so difficult to communicate in ordinary language. Through years of intense and systematic observation and interpretation (she called it “integrating what you saw”), McClintock had build a theoretical vision, a highly articulated image of the world within the cell. As she watched the corn plants grow, examined the patterns on the leaves and kernels, looked down the microscope at their chromosomal structure, she saw directly into that ordered world. The “Book of Nature” was to be read simultaneously by the eyes of the body and those of the mind. The spots McClintock saw on the kernels of corn were ciphers in a text that, because of her understanding of their genetic meaning, she could read directly. For her, the eyes of the body were the eyes of the mind. Ordinary language could not begin to convey the full structure of the reading that emerged. (148-149) In order to “see” what McClintock “saw”, Witkin [the assistant] had to leaarn more that a new “language”’ she needed to share in McClintock’s internal vision. In that sense, “seeing” in science is not unlike “seeing” in art. Based on vision, our most public and our most private sense, it gives rise, to a kind of knowledge that requires more than a shared practice to be communicable: it requires a shared subjectivity (149)

- Ennenkö menemme eteenpäin haluan antaa yleisen varoituksen. Nämä tieteelliset löydökset ovat kiistanalaisia. Eivät niinkään niiden tulosten epäselvyyden takia, vaan sen takia, kuinka paljon ne ravisuttavat erityisesti psykologien maailmankuvaa. Tämän takia voitte olla rauhassa, että jos puhutte näistä tutkijaystävillenne, niin suurin osa ei tiedä näistä tuloksista, eikä usko edes katsomaan tuloksia, vaan päättää etukäteen, että “näin ei voi olla.” Se ei kuitenkaan poista sitä tosiasiaa, että näitä tuloksia saadaa tiukkaan valvotuissa koejärjestelyissä.
- Tesla: yli 300 patenttia, suuri osa merkittävistä sähkön ja radion peruskeksinnöistä Jo nuoresta kiinnostunut henkisyydestä, vietti paljon aikaa yksin mielessään, luki buddhalaista kirjallisuutta Näki usein esineitä ja valoja tavallisen näkökykynsä päälle sijoitettuna ja alussa vaikeuksia erottaa mikä totta ja mikä tuli idea-avaruudesta Keksi asioita mielessään, pyöritteli niitä siellä, ja rakensi ne vasta kun ne olivat valmiita Omasta mielestään toimi vain keksintöjen tulkkina, ottaen ideat suuresta ideoiden avaruudesta ja tuoden ne tähän maailmaan Teslan keksintöjen prosessi oli lähes täysin “mielessä” tapahtuva: Hän näki geometrisia muotoja mielessään Hän yritti ymmärtää mikä fyysinen tarkoitus tällä keksinnöllä olisi Sitten hän muodollisesti käsitteli keksinnön toimivuuden matemaattisesti päässään Vasta tämän jälkeen hän alkoi käydä läpi materiaalien ja rakenteiden valintoja laitteen rakentamiseksi Teslan mukaansa hänen ajatuksensa tulivat universumin ykseydestä, kaikkien ideoiden maailmasta, josta hän vain valitsi ja sovelsi ideoita tähän maailmaan toteutettavaksi. Hän käytti loputtomia tunteja yksin, ilman ärsykkeitä, mielessään, ilman kokeita tai muistikirjoja, perehtyen tähän universaaliin maailman Lainauksia Teslalta: "In my boyhood I suffered from a peculiar affliction due to the appearance of images, often accompanied by strong flashes of light, which covered the sight of real objects and interfered with my thought and actions ... When a word was spoken to me, the image of the object it designated would present itself vividly to my vision and sometimes I was quite unable to distinguish whether what I saw was tangible or not.“ "Then, instinctively, I commenced making mind trips beyond the limits of the small world of which I had knowledge and I saw new scenes. These were at first very blurred and indistinct, and would flit away when I tried to concentrate my attention upon them but, by and by, I succeeded in fixing them; they gained in strength and distinctness and finally assumed the concreteness of a real thing. I soon discovered that my best comfort was attained if I simply went on in my vision further and further, getting new impressions all the time, and so I began to travel - of course in my mind. Every night (and sometimes during the day) when alone, I would start on my journeys, see new places, cities and countries, live there, meet people and make friendships and acquaintances and, however unbelievable, it is a fact that they were just as real and dear to me as those in actual life and not one bit less intense in their manifestations. This I did constantly until I was seventeen, when my thoughts turned seriously to invention.“ "In some certain moments I noticed that all the air around me was full of tongues of real flame. The intensity of these tongues grew after a number of years instead of falling and reached its maximum at the age of twenty-five. Once I had a feeling that my brain was enveloped in flames and a little Sun shines in my head". At the age of 65: "These light phenomena sometimes still appear, especially when some new idea shows me unprecedented possibilities, but their intensity is relatively weak". Tesla sharply distinguished ideas which were coming into his mind as visions, and those which appeared due to analytical mind activity. Tesla explained: "The moment when somebody designs an imaginary device, there is a problem of putting the raw idea into practice. That's why any discovery made this way has lack of details, and usually it is inferior... My method is a different one.“ Thomas Edison, because he had "weak knowledge in mathematics, and he was mainly guided by long and laborious experiments".

This called great enlightening beings’ fourth super-knowledge, the power of knowing the ages of the entire future.” - The Flower Ornament Scripture”, a.d. 100): ” All immense eons of past, present, and future, Buddha reveals in every instant - All the events of their formation and decay His inconceivable knowledge comprehends” - Flower Ornament Scripture, Avatamsaka Sutra (Mahāyāna Buddhism) “By Samyama over the changes of of characteristic, secondary quality and condition, comes to the Yogis the knowledge of the past and the future.” – Yoga Sutras, Patañjali (Rama Prasada translation) (Hindu “Know your Atman — the pure, infinite conscious-ness, eternally existent in the past, present and future. Thus you will find peace.“ – Shankara, ‘Crest Jewel of Discrimination’ “Timeless awareness, amazing and marvelous, was ineffable in the past and will be ineffable in the future, for it is primordially ineffable.” ‘The Reverberation of Sound’, in 'Nyingma Gyubum’ Collected Tantras of the Ancients “For anyone who does not hold on to traces of the past or anticipate the future, but lets consciousness rest moment by moment in its natural place, all consciousness blends as one, without any distinction of earlier or later, in what I call "the single unifying essence. “ “Great enlightening beings, by super-knowledge of the eons of the entire future, know the ages of the worlds as numerous as the atoms in untold Buddha lands. They also know the whole future of worlds as numerous as atoms… this is called great enlightening beings’ fourth super-knowledge, the power of knowing the ages of the entire future.” - The Flower Ornament Scripture”, a.d. 100): --------- Hindulaisuuden ja joogan kirjassa, Patanjalin “Jooga Sutrat” (The Yoga Sutra’s of Patanjali”, v 200 e.a. ): “Jooga tapahtuu, kuin huojuvat mielen häiriöt, pyörimiset ja hyörisimet, sekä mielenkuohot tyyntyvät ja lakkaavat olemasta.” Jokainen todellisuuden hetkessä on potentiaali sisältää kaikki todellisuudesta (menneisyys ja tulevaisuus). Nykyhetki, juuri niin kuin se on, ilman tottumuksia ja täysin ajattomana, on itsevalaiseva puhtaan tietoisuuden (cit) ilmentymä (sat).” --------- Ei-dualistisen hindulaisuuden klassikossa, Shankaran “Erottelun kruununjalokivi” (The Crest Jewel of Discrimination, v. 600): “Tunne Atman – puhdas, ääretön tietoisuus, ikuisesti oleva menneisyydessä, nykyisyydessä ja tulevaisuudessa. Näin löydät rauhan.” --------- Tiibetinbuddhalaisuuden Dzogchen-tradition Rabjamin Ilmiöiden perimmäinen avaruus, (Basic Space of Phenomena, c. 1300 v.) “Mieli itsessään – siis luontaisesti ilmenevä tietoisuus – ei omaa sisältöä tai ominaisuuksia… Luontaisesti nouseva ajaton tietoisuus, joka on spontaanisti läsnä Dharmakayan syvimmässä olemuksessa (viiden aistin ylittämisen energeettinen kokemus), on vapaa käsitteellisistä ja kuvailevista yksityiskohdista.” --------- Russel Targ kirjassaan ‘Reality of ESP ‘ (2013): “Patanjali kuvasi viisi mielen mentaalista toimintoa ja teki selväksi, että meidän tulisi aina tunnistaa, missä tilassa olemme. Meidän tulisi tunnistaa erot 1) oikean ajattelun, 2 väärän ajattelun (virheet), 3) nukkumisen/unennäkemisen, 4) muistamisen ja 5) mielikuvituksen välillä. Nämä tilat korreloivat hyvin niihin kaukokatsomista häiritseviin mielen ilmiöihin, jotka meidän tulisi tunnistaa ja erotella, kun pyrimme puhtaaseen, häiriöttämään kaukokatsomiseen.”

- The basics are: Set you intention: What do you want to know? Be precise Write it down Repeat it several times Read it out loud to yourself Look at it before you go to sleep Then let go Trust that something will come
- Remove Distractions Breath Deeply (regulates your heart coherence) Quiet Down Turn your Attention Inward If you feel like it, you can meditate or focus your mind You can do this sitting, walking, lieing down, etc. No right way! What works for you
- Observe everything: your sensations, what you notice, what you think, what keeps coming to you, ideas, whatever Observe neutrally EVERYTHING, no judgement. If you push it away, it will come back. Let it fly for a while, it will go a way Linger with observations, try not to label / classify them immediately. Let them slowly unfold Try to feel how things differ in your mind, in your body, in your feelings. Keep a journal
- Interpret your intuition – your interpretation (your symbol book) Apply it to your situation Don’t get caught in a story (if I do this, then….) Make a decision – you can also apply rational analysis Keep a journal and see how you did
- Miksi sitten näin on? Onko kyse vain ahdasmielisistä tiedemiehistä? Huonosta tieteen mallista? Ihmisen omien ennakkoluulojen voimasta? Varmasti nämä kaikki vaikuttavat. Kyse on kuitenkin myös siitä, että emme oikeasti tiedä varmuudella, mitä intuitiossa tapahtuu. Mm. kvanttifysiikka, M-teoria tai Matti Pitkäsen Topologinen Geometrodynamiikka tarjoavat mahdollisia malleja sille, mistä voisi olla kyse. Tieteeltä puuttuu kuitenkin ns. Yhtenäisteoria siitä, mitä intuitiossa tai yleensä ihmisen ajattelussa tapahtuu. Ajatuksia, malleja ja orastavia teorioita on, mutta mikään niistä ei tunnu aukottomalta tai selittävän kaikkia tutkimustuloksia. Eli tämä on usein tieteen alueella jarru: vaikka tutkimustuloksia löytyy, niin jos emme osaa selittää niitä, on vaikea hyväksyä ilmiötä laajemmin. Tämä ei tarkoita, etteikö usea tieteen tekijä olisi yrittänyt mallin hahmottamasti Tässä joitain esimerkkejä:
