Podcast appearances and mentions of George A Miller

In 1970, Winston W. Royce published a paper “Managing the Development of Large Software Systems.” Later authors cited it as the justification for what had come to be called the "waterfall process." Yet Royce had quite specifically described that process as one that is "simplistic" and "invites failure."That's weird. People not only promoted a process Royce had said was inadequate, they cited him as their justification. And they ignored all the elaborations that he said would make the inadequate process adequate. What's up with that? In this episode, I blame metaphor and the perverse affordances of diagrams.I also suggest ways you might use metaphors and node-and-arrow diagrams in a way that avoids Royce's horrible fate.In addition to the usual transcript, there's also a Wiki version.Other sourcesLakoff and Johnson, Metaphors We Live By, 1980.Laurent Bossavit, The Leprechauns of Software Engineering, 2014.George A Miller, “The Magical Number Seven, Plus or Minus Two: Some Limits on our Capacity for Processing Information,” 1956.CreditsDawn Marick for the picture of the fish ladder.

You are going to love this! As part of my journey in understanding the world of psychology I came across a paper written in 1956 which explains why we remember certain things like phone numbers and identification numbers that are grouped in sevens, plus or minus two. Then we go on the journey of noticing the number 7 throughout history and in everyday occurrences. There is psychology behind the number 7 that not only will attract your attention, but help you in learning. In his paper, George Miller says: "I shall begin my case history by telling you about some experiments that tested how accurately people can assign numbers to the magnitudes of various aspects of a stimulus. In the traditional language of psychology these would be called experiments in absolute judgment. Historical accident, however, has decreed that they should have another name. We now call them experiments on the capacity of people to transmit information. Since these experiments would not have been done without the appearance of information theory on the psychological scene, and since the results are analyzed in terms of the concepts of information theory, I shall have to preface my discussion with a few remarks about this theory. " Sounds like too much information? Well the paper ends with the exciting revelation that since the beginning of time, the number 7 has been magic, plus or minus two. "And finally, what about the magical number seven? What about the seven wonders of the world, the seven seas, the seven deadly sins, the seven daughters of Atlas in the Pleiades, the seven ages of man, the seven levels of hell, the seven primary colors, the seven notes of the musical scale, and the seven days of the week? What about the seven-point rating scale, the seven categories for absolute judgment, the seven objects in the span of attention, and the seven digits in the span of immediate memory? For the present I propose to withhold judgment. Perhaps there is something deep and profound behind all these sevens, something just calling out for us to discover it. But I suspect that it is only a pernicious, Pythagorean coincidence." I give my own examples of the number 7 as seen through history in books and film. After I finished this episode I started thinking about the Seven pools on the Hawaiian island in Maui, and other places. Share in the comments below where you have seen the number 7, plus or minus 2 throughout history and in everyday life.

This is Cognitive Revolution, my show about the personal side of the intellectual journey. Each week, I interview an eminent scientist, writer, or academic about the experiences that shaped their ideas. The show is available wherever you listen to podcasts.Philip Johnson-Laird is professor emeritus at Princeton University. He is one of the most influential cognitive scientists of all time, best known for developing the idea of “mental models.” Though if you really want to get a sense of how eminent he is, you have to look no further than his email address. You can find him at Phil at Princeton. That’s right. He is the Phil at Princeton University. It was a huge honor to talk to him for this conversation, as he’s long been one of my favorite cognitive scientists. My favorite paper of his is a lesser known article from 2002 called How Jazz Musicians Improvise. It’s part of a long-standing interest of his in understanding how our minds create complex, meaningful sequences—in this case, strings of notes—on the go. Phil didn’t start off planning to become an academic (he left school at age 15), and before he got on the academic track he worked as a jazz pianist. In this conversation we go deep into Phil’s background as a musician, and how that influenced his ideas about the mind. We also talk about his background working miscellaneous jobs for 10 years before starting university, marching in protests led by Bertrand Russell, the mentorship of Peter Wason, Phil’s first encounters with cognitive science, his relationship with the great George A. Miller, the genesis of the idea of mental models, how Phil’s understand of mental models has changed over the past forty years, and what the question of how jazz musicians improvise can tell us about how the mind works.

I find the journey a brand embarks on to forge a path into the consumers' subconscious fascinating. This principle corresponds to the Law of Ladder. If you think quickly about the best brands for running shoes, champagne, luxury watches, or electric cars, you'll Being in second or third position isn't always a disadvantage. In fact, it's possible to take advantage of it, since trying to take that first place is often a futile endeavour. Your resources will be better invested if you concentrate on what makes you stand out. Being first or the biggest is good but being the best can also be very lucrative. Where do you fall on the consumer popularity ladder? We often talk about the top 3, top 5 or top 10 best products. Certain studies* estimate that the human brain will retain seven brands (plus or minus two). Marketing specialists often cite a study by cognitive psychologist George A. Miller of Harvard University to illustrate this point. PR is a highly effective way to climb the brand ladder. PR will help you tell journalists your story. We know how to get yourself known by journalists and influencers who share your values. Articles published about you will have a significant impact on your Search Engine Optimization (SEO). * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magical_Number_Seven,_Plus_or_Minus_Two I hope you enjoyed this episode, and that this PR/marketing moment stimulates your creativity.

Je trouve fascinant le cheminement d'une marque pour se frayer un chemin jusqu'au subconscient des consommateurs. Ce principe correspond à la loi de l'échelle. En pensant rapidement à la meilleure marque pour les chaussures de course, le champagne, les montres luxueuses, les voitures électriques…, vous songez sûrement à ces noms qui occupent le haut de l'échelle. Se retrouver en 2eou 3eposition n'est pas toujours un désavantage; il est même possible d'en tirer profit, puisque il est souvent inutile de tenter de ravir la première place. Vos ressources seront mieux investies si vous vous concentrez sur les points de différentiation. Être le premier c'est bien, mais être le meilleur peut aussi s'avérer très lucratif. Où vous situez-vous dans l'échelle de popularité des consommateurs? On parle souvent d'un top 3, top 5, top 10 des meilleurs produits. Sachez que certaines études* estiment que le cerveau humain retiendra 7 marques (plus ou moins 2). Les spécialistes du marketing citent souvent une étude du psychologue cognitif George A. Miller de l'Université Harvard pour illustrer ce point. Les RP sont très efficaces pour gravir les échelons de l'échelle des marques. Les RP vous aident à raconter votre histoire aux journalistes. Nous savons comment vous faire connaître des journalistes et des influenceurs qui partagent vos valeurs. Les articles publiés sur vous contribuent grandement à votre référencement naturel (SEO). *https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magical_Number_Seven,_Plus_or_Minus_Two J'espère que cet épisode vous a plu et que cette pause RP/marketing stimule votre créativité.

Another chance to hear the inaugural episode of Great Minds on Learning, which was originally aired back in March 2021 to considerable acclaim. In this series, Donald Clark – the internationally famous author, blogger and entrepreneur, joins John Helmer to discuss the history of thought and theorising about learning.  This particular episode is about The Cognitivists, a group of theorists who made a vital contribution to what we now know about the mechanics of memory and learning.   ---------- 00:47 Why is memory such an important focus for the cognitivists? 02:27 Introducing the Cognitivists 04:07 Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850-1909) 13:49 George A.

  This time we're featuring the pilot episode of a brand new podcast from the Learning Hack team, Great Minds on Learning.   In this series, Donald Clark, the internationally famous author, blogger and entrepreneur, joins John Helmer to discuss the history of thought and theorising about learning. It's all here: the inspired, the enduring, the wacked-out weird and the just plain wrong in 2,500 years of learning theory from Aristotle to the present day.   This inaugural episode is about the Cognitivists, a group of psychologists who probed the limits and the limitations of human memory, an area of focus that Donald Clark believes is fundamental to our understanding of how people learn.     00:47 Why is memory such an important focus for learning? 02:27 Introducing the Cognitivists 04:08 Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850-1909) 13:49 George A.

Esiste davvero un numero magico? Forse si, e non è sempre lo stesso, a volte il numero magico è il 3, a volte è il numero nove, a volte sono degli accoppiamenti a diventare famosi. Per quanto riguarda il miglioramento personale, possiamo dire che il numero magico è il sette! Poi ci facciamo anche una coda e ci mettiamo il “più o meno due”, in modo che sia più chiaro e definito. Infatti, secondo un articolo scritto nel 1956 dallo psicologo americano George A. Miller, sette è il numero massimo di stimoli che la nostra mente riesce a processare nello stesso momento.In questo episodio ci addentriamo un po’ di più in questo argomento e vediamo anche cosa succede alla nostra mente se ci arrivano più stimoli e come, qualche persona di dubbia moralità, possa approfittarne. Scopriamo quali siano anche le differenze tra gli stati di ipnosi e le tecniche di distrazione della mente.All’interno dell’episodio ascolteremo un brano di MIchael Tembadis intitolato “Non sarai mai solo” e tratto dal suo nuovo album “Eclectic”.
