THE 12 BRAIN RULES
  • SURVIVAL: The human brain evolved, too.
  • EXERCISE: Exercise boosts brain power.
  • SLEEP: Sleep well, think well.
  • STRESS: Stressed brains don't learn the same way.
  • WIRING: Every brain is wired differently.
  • ATTENTION: We don't pay attention to boring things.
  • MEMORY: Repeat to remember.
  • SENSORY INTEGRATION: Stimulate more of the senses.
  • VISION: Vision trumps all other senses.
  • MUSIC: Study or listen to boost cognition.
  • GENDER: Male and female brains are different.

Daniel Kahneman "Thinking, fast and slow"
Kahneman describes two different ways the brain forms thoughts:
  • SYSTEM 1: Fast, automatic, frequent, emotional, stereotypic, subconscious - examples of things system 1 does
  • SYSTEM 2: Slow, effortful, infrequent, logical, calculating, conscious - examples of things system 2 does
Kahneman covers a number of experiments which purport to highlight the differences between these two thought systems and how they arrive at different results even given the same inputs. Terms and concepts include coherence, attention, laziness, association, jumping to conclusions, and how one forms judgments. The System 1 vs. System 2 debate dives into the reasoning or lack thereof for human decision making which is vital when considering decision making at emergency hazmat incidents.
