. >> how to separate this from psychology, from sociology? the economic case i think it will call economic imperialism where you plant your flag. how is this different from psychology? >> probably both. i think a little of both. psychologist ask different questions. at an economist and psychologist asked the same question, then the methods we use would be similar. psychologist rarely if ever venture out. the psychologists have complete control. economists have to really have been much more critical to the left because it is an artificial environment. one of the things that psychologist know what is depending on how you run an experiment, you can get college students to do just about anything. but the question, psychologists are interested. there are almost interested in how human they play people than it extrapolating outside the lab how people behave in the real world. economists seem to be interested in will this tax do what we think it will. psychologist into the interested in how will people feel about the tax. and so in general, a lot of

so you know, how is this different from psychology? how do the techniques deferred? and how people act? >> guest: i think a little bit of both. psychologists tend to ask different questions. if an economist and psychologist asked the same question when you go into randomized experiments would be similar. psychologists rarely, if ever, venture out of the lab. psychologists decide the lab is the perfect kind of sterile environment which you can learn everything you can and have complete control. economists have a long list and myself in particular have been much more critical of the lab because it is an artificial environment. one of the things psychologists know well is depending on how you run an experiment he can get a college student to to do just about anything. for the questions psychologists are interested in its of the motivation. they are almost more interested in how to manipulate people into doing things than extrapolating and outside the lab, people will be given the real world and that is an important distinction. economists are interested in will this do

psychological health care is so important for everyone. message. i would like to ask you what it is about the operations in afghanistan that the estimates of money per soldier come from. guest: that is an excellent question, and something we need to get our hands on. it's about $660,000 per soldier, and the question that really is alarming, and i think it is classified -- what is the taliban budget? we know it is considerably less than $30 billion per soldier -- per surge of soldiers -- not the total, of course. you have transportation costs and specialized equipment, and you are fighting an enemy that is not recognizable. unmanned vehicles, all of the above to minimize collateral damage, which the enemy is not worried about. that costs you a lot more money. feeding everybody -- we are fighting for a poor nation that is not helping desperatus kick . the question is a great question. why do we have to spend so much more than the other guys? these are very good things that we need to pursue. and i want to say again, democrats and republicans

many of us are not devastated financially and psychologically -- are now devastated financially and psychologically. many are trying to sell their homes just to obtain money to live on. some indirect investors have had to beg for support from our siblings and our children. discrimination is not a word that any of us in this room would use lightly. however, because only direct investors are considered sipc customers, discrimination is exactly what indirect investors are facing very clearly not congress's intent when it passed sipa and created sipc in 1970. people who knowingly invested with bernard madoff have the potential of recovering $500,000. in direct investors, maybe most of us who had never heard of bernard l. madoff until it was too late, were not considered customers and we will recoup $0. i ask you -- where is that justice in that kind of an interpretation? because the sec has admitted extreme culpability in missing the warning signs of the madoff scam and others, and because the irs essentially endorsed madoff in 2004 by naming his firm as a non-bank custodian of ira's and other tax-defe

in particular, the psychological distress has been ridiculed. to understand the consequences of all positive tests it is necessary to consider how women enter the screening cycle, what happens and what might happen to a woman who has a positive test. no matter how hard the concept of screening is explained, a positive mammogram screening test -- until cancer is proven not to exist. for some women who have a positive test the time between a positive test and statement there is no cancer is mercifully short. for other women the follow-up involves more than one additional test, clinical breast examination and a test over a period of time that is not always short and over a period of time that is unpredictable and not within the control of the woman. some women eventually need a biopsy. cancer is a terrifying prospect that carries special emotional weight because the consequences of a diagnosis have in the past involved not only death but the prospect of mutilating surgery. anxiety and psychological distress in women who have had positive screening

i don't think anyone had a physical or psychological problems as a result of moon flight, but when you come down from that high and think now what will i do, that is where things could cause you to go off. buzz aldrin acknowledge that in his book and all of us decided we needed to do something else. my commander stayed on at nasa and finally retired in 1995 as 44 years as an astra ab. -- 44 years as an astronaut'. i left after 10 years to do other things, so it was the after part -- you will probably have the same problem after the throwing the venture, now what will you do? hopefully they have a good mission. -- the same problem after your mission. we have to go explore. >> this time a question from the california academy of sciences. i believe we have a moderator standing by. >> hello, i was wondering [inaudible] scary, humorous, or inspiring? >> would you describe the adventure you just gave us as more inspiring, humorous, or more scary. >> my first choice would be inspiring. i think not only to us individually but especially the kids of the world. they dream. when i was a kid it wa

this is a result of soldiers not getting the psychological care and tested and spot on. could not agree with them more. the problem was this said this and talk about changing policy. aside from a few minor tweaks they have basically not changed policy. so we have situations like fort hood like major nidal hasan where he did not serve in iraq or afghanistan has spent a lot of time in walter reed hospital counseling giving psychiatric counseling to soldiers coming back from both occupations. so there have actually been a lot of people in the military already calling for pst treatment for for soldiers themselves. then we need pstd treatment for the counselors. when you hear one traumatic story after another, day after day after day you are going to need to talk to somebody about that. so major hasan, of course, his family in the aftermath of fort hood talked about this. this guy had a very heavy work load that was consistently being increased. he was hearing this horrible, horrible stories. that coupled with him being opposed with those occupations and his religion coupled

>> i have been doing psychology and religion for over 20 years and i have studied the other cases, peoplejuring themselves or religion. for example rites of passage for pilgrimmage, where the pilgrims walked on their knees or initiations and so forth. we have all seen moms who were whipping themselves and that sort of thing, so i am an expert on fire religious people feel that they need to hurt themselves in order to get what they want, which is spiritual salvation. >> where do you teach? >> georgetown university. >> ariel glucklich, "dying for heaven" holy pleasure and suicide bombers - why the best qualities of religion are also its most dangerous. >> coming up from the 2009 miami book fair international a discussion on the supreme court. joan biskupic, author of american original presents her biography of justice antonin scalia. and barry friedman author of the will of the people argues the supreme court bases its decisions on popular opinion as much as it does on constitutional precedent. >> i thought i would start with the last chapter of the buck to make you understand why i even wr

overconfidence and arrogance and we need to keep the task of the leader or the expert, we need to keep that psychologicalproblems in check. they need our help to do that. >> when you think of leaders, can you think of a leader that showed some humility. ? >> i thought you're going to ask the opposite question. it's funny, there's a wonderful booki] written a couple of years ago called "overconfidence and ward." ." he walks her every conflict of the last hundred years and tries to find the humility of a leader and can rarely find one ve. the preponderance of the leaders suffer from some major overconfidence. in that room, it is hard to fund. ind. that is not to say there is humility at all kinds of levels. i had a conversation a couple of weeks ago when i was giving a talk and i was seated next to a guy who ran a regional bank in akron, ohio. i ask him his business was. he said his business was fine. i ask what he was part and no one else was. he said he had been through this three times before. i suspect he got humbled 25 years ago or in the early 1970's. s to never forgot that lesson. it is in times lik

increasing risk of overconfidence, and we need to keep that -- the task of a leader is to keep that psychological problem in check. and they need our help to do that. >> can you name a leader that you think shows humility? >> interesting, i thought you were going to ask another question which would be more difficult to answer. -- easier to enter. -- to answer. there is a wonderful book written a couple of years ago called "overconfidence and war," which walks through virtually every major conflict of the last few years trying to find a humble military leader. and he can rarely find one. the preponderance of the leaders he looks at suffer from some kind of major overconfidence. so in that realm, it is hard to find. but that is not to say that there is not humility at all kinds of levels. i had a conversation a couple of weeks ago, giving a talk, and i was seated next to a guy who ran a regional bank in akron, ohio. we talked about his business. how was your business? he said, we are more than fine, we have been bought by a big bank in chicago. i asked, why are you fine? and he is an older man, and

and i think the psychological -- the fact that there won't be the psychological advantage of saying to the enemy, we are coming, we are staying, you will not win, i think gives that gives them hope. host: next call, lutherville, good morning gorges frank, democratic line. stephen hayes, good morning. caller: good morning. guest: good morning. caller: i think it's just a waste of time. we got people here in the united states, we can't afford -- we got to change. we got to stay the course, we got to stay the course, we got to win this war. how you going win a war when this war was going since i was a little boy? in our i'm 65 years old, and people still raising hell and fighting over there. focus on the homeland first? guest: the caller raises points that i think are at the heart of many democratic complaints about what the president has done. i find the talk, particularly from the president, the talk of the costs of the war, $30 billion a year additionally to surge the troops that we're surging, i find that rather distasteful actually. to me, when you add it up, $30 billion is 4%, less

and with a house like that, believe me, it really has a psychological effect. >> sometimes there are 30 visits a year, and, of course, some of them go on for three or four days. so it's quite a task. housing leaders, and making sure that every single need they have is met. you know, diplomacy doesn't happen until two people engage. and our staff here is involved in diplomacy. they are all diplomats. and just by nature of what they do, offering personal service and caring about someone who's arriving -- and it's not even on a political level. it's our gracious -- what we hope is our gracious hospitality to a world leader, to a leader from another country. and so it's very personal and meaningful for them. >> the honor is deep and intense, especially times when, you know, we're hosting the president elect before inauguration or whether we are hosting the widow and the family of a deceased president for a state funeral. >> president reagan once wrote me a letter and said, "form and substance, the opposite sides of the same coin." and i never forgot that. and we represent form. but to gi

it could be a psychological profile.hey have all these different characteristics they bring together at one. and a lead they make -- and use the matrix system where if you had all the dots and a lineup, they will trigger you. host: our last call for this segment comes from ottawa, ill.. caller: the way i see it -- if this government cared anything about protecting us from terrorism, they would close the borders and put the army down there. 6xthey would bring all of our troops if we create terrorism then we will have terrorism here. that is all our government cuts -- does is call terrorism. that will look for peace or anything. -- they don't look for peace or anything. they absolutely don't care anything about this country or the people edit but they like to put on a big front. host: your thought is that changing the watch list procedure will not stop this? caller: do what? host: your thought about changing the watch list is not going to necessarily reduce the terrorist threat to the united states? caller: the people in t

i think that there is one psychological mistake really whenever i was negotiating with the other side, i always assumed that they were acting in good faith and i was acting in good faith. there is a human psychological piece where you think you're right and the other guy is wrong, and that distorts things. but basically i don't see a large return to bipartisanship got three or four seats in the senate in 2010 which i do expect, i think you would see more bipartisanship in the senate because they have enough on the filibuster and therefore you would have to negotiate with them. that's my little model. >> you hit on something important and maybe we can end on this we have been talking about partisanship and bipartisanship. there is a fundamental question of civility. tom cain, the former governor of new jersey told me that when he was a teenager in washington, his father was the ranking minority member on the ways and means committee when wilbur mills was the chairman. and he said every sunday, wilbur mills would stop by their house and sit and have a cup of coffee with his father to ta

you factored in the psychological cost. if you will, to the patient of that exchange. did i understand that correctly? >> the issue was a qualitative assessment. anxiety, psychological distress, inconvenienced are all considered to be potential harms. and again, it is part of the net benefit equation. >> when i was in school back in the 1970s, i realized this was a long time ago, but mammogram at screening was not at least in the area where i went to school. that was not something that was done. uses of atomic mammogram. it was kind of a big deal if you felt something, but it wasn't -- it was part of the routine screening. in fact, i don't think, as i recall, looking back it was probably the mid '80s when that became a standardized screening test. in fact, in texas i don't know whether this is true nationwide, but i know in texas women can self confer for mammography. when that all happened, that psychological cost was one of the arguments that was used by people who felt that routine screening would not be a good idea. so how is it that we have come to the point now w

one under% of gdp -- that would spook market psychologically. the other contrast is that i have china actually going into this crisis with public debt of 20% of gdp. in some ways, but chinese were highly affected by the crisis because they were exporting so much that when the world economy collapsed, their exports will it took a beating. but because the public debt to gdp was so low, that the fiscal and listen to throw everything at the problem to recover. -- that they had the financial -- they had that this goal ammunition to throw everything at the problem to recover. i feel that looking at the experience and even in this crisis, in good times, especially if we have good growth going forward, i would be much more comfortable with something even lower than 60%. we began a 40%, so why not get back to 40%? exactly. now coming to your question about the dollar, we have to separate the fact an orderly decline that is happening now of the dollar is what the doctor ordered. and that is what we need. it helps our exports. it helps us reduce our foreig

i think there's one psychological mistake, when i was negotiating with the other side i assumed theyere acting good faith and i was acting good faith and there was a human psychological peace where you think you are right and the other guy is wrong and it distorts them. i don't see a large return to bipartisanship. the republicans got three or four seats which i don't expect, you will see more because they have enough on the filibuster and you have to negotiate with them. >> you talked about something important that i can end on. we are talking about bipartisanship but there is the fundamental question of civility. tom kane told me that when he was a teenager in washington, his father was the ranking minority member on the ways and means committee, he said every sunday they would stop by their house and have a cup of coffee with his father to talk about the problems they face in the week ahead and ways they might deal with those problems. >> very good. >> has there been some basic decline in civility that is separate from this question we have been talking about of partisanship that

it's been shown that young children need nature for healthy psychological development. trees and flowers and things like that are really important. they need -- did a study in chicago, took two areas of high crime. one area they took empty lots and made them green, window boxes and greened it. the other one they left, and the rate of crime drop significantly in the area where they made green. so, this is why -- people say to me, why have you left the chimp pan seize and working with children? for two reasons. one is i have grandchildren, and they play like children outside, and my son was raised in tanzania, but i see so many of the people i know in the u.s. and europe who are just as you describe, kids do not play out in the wild. >> host: you mentioned this program. tell me more about that. it's a global program designed to, what, get kids to invest in nature? >> guest: it's a bit more than that. it's a symbolic name. if you imagine a small seed, an acorn, it's going to grow into a big oak tree, and while it starts to grow, there are many tiny roots and it looks so we

their mortgages send food bills or whatever, and the economic award they are getting -- most is psychological. that is one of fact. the second effect is -- and i agree with alan. it is unfortunate in some ways for people like me, but with all the competition, i would say it improves probably the average product and put pressure on people like me to make our stuff relative region relevant -- hours of relevance so we can survive in this competitive marketplace, but it is also going to produce an awful lot more diversity, and that is to say you are going to have a lot more in junk, and you have more high quality stuff, and in general, it is a good result, but i would prefer to go back to the bad old days. >> this gets to your second point, which we have not talked about, which is what this is doing to the economic market. it had to do with what technology is doing to the economic model. as a consumer, being able to read paul krugman or simon johnson or having those voices of people who want to analyze things or study what they are thinking or willing to do it free on the side to keep auriana huf

it is being shown young children need nature for healthy psychological development. trees and flowers and things like that are really important. they did a study in chicago where they took two areas of high crime and one area where they put -- the useful of the empty vacant lots and the did window box and and everything they could to green. the author they left and the rate of crime dropped significantly in the area which they need green so this is why people say to me why have you left the chimpanzees? why are you working with children so much in the program so for two reasons one is i have grandchildren that find in tanzania they play like children outside and my son was raised in tanzania and he did, too but i see so many of the people i know in the u.s. and europe who are just as you described durham not play out in the wild. >> host: you mentioned the roots and shoots program. tell more about that. that is a global program. designed to what? get kids to invest in nature? is the dewey to summarize it? >> guest: it is a bit more than that. it is a symbolic name. i

third, the architecture achieves deception by of a known psychological biases for consumers to make informed choices in the markets. it's the creation of web environments that lead consumers to make decisions using automated or unconscious processes that do not fully consider all the information that is available in a website or presented in its decision-setting. examples include site designs that create the false impression that the offer is being made by a familiar, trusted seller, designs that misdirect consumers attention away from text that might describe the true nature of the transaction and by exploiting tendencies to choose default or acceptologists when there is confusion about what the correct course of action would be in a web session. i should also note that the lack of ethicality that they are targeted at vulnerable populations who are ill-equipped the financial losses they impose. it may be effective when targeted consumers of limited means for whom the small cash even tiesments promised by the programs offer significant financial assets and/or older consumers who have limited

[laughter] term limits. they think they're above the law and they can do what they want. having limited liability. when judges do what they want for or vested special interests, little guys can't appeal. so there should be arbitration panels and insurance to compensate the victims. and why is the legal system so important? because what i said before is that without a legal system you can't hold this powerful elite of corrupt public officials accountable to the american people. that's where it starts and that's where it ends. campaign finance. the first amendment basically says that we should be able to express ourselves as we wish, give as much money as you want. but have a campaign finance bank. you pay the money into the bank, and the bank then pays it over to the candidate. the candidate doesn't know where it's coming from so you can't bribe the candidate through campaign contribution. and if it
