发帖数: 187 | 1 More Brainpower Seen in Soccer’s Top Scorers
THE NEW YORK TIMES
Brawny athletes are rarely brainy, or so the stereotype goes. But a new
study reports that soccer players actually have superior executive functions
, the brain processes responsible for planning and abstract thinking. And
the more elite the player, the better these functions.
The ability is called game intelligence, and it’s “very, very fundamental
to the way we make decisions,” said an author of the new study, Predrag
Petrovic, a ... 阅读全帖 |

要求低很多，但是对技巧要求高很多。
绝大多数的橄榄球员没有多少自由度，因此对主动性尤其是创造力要求很低。几十上百
种（基本上是大同小异的）的play是都是由quarterback（时常是按照offensive
coordinator的要求）选择用，然后用半密码的方式喊给队友们让他们去做的。在NFL合
并AFC的1970之前，“最顶级”的橄榄球比赛从空中进攻的时间很少，打法单调很多。
AFC更侧重的空中打法给NFL带去了一些生气，但是改变不了这些运动更要求勇猛体力（
力量和爆发力）的基本性质。
单就分析识别能力而言，NFL球员只是一般人的水平，而顶级足球运动员比一般人高很
多（差不多是百里挑一的水平）。

发帖数: 309 | 27 除了象牙塔，中国的心理学应用方面有哪些机会方向？市场学的应用情况如何？
前些日子跟个买办朋友聊天，跟我说中国的化妆品市场跟其他国家的不同。包装、产品讯
息什么的都要重来。一般来说，女人买护肤化妆品什么的都是有个心理作用，认为那个品
牌有效。但是中国的市场研究发现，自己觉得有效远不如在朋友面前显摆影响消费决策。
比如说，美国的女人很少进入对方的浴室研究朋友到底用啥品牌，但是中国的小资女人们
显然最喜欢互相攀比品牌，而且对对方的寝室浴室了如指掌。所以护扶品化妆品也成为面
子的一部分，能卖得火的不在于本身的功效，也不在于消费者相信它是否比其他的有效，
而在于价位高，形象高尚，能让朋友赞叹她的决定。
所以针对这些发现，比如说，女性用品包装固然华丽，但是主要不是给主人看的，而是给
主人的朋友/同事/路人看的，所以华丽之余要独特，老远就能认出牌子。一般来说，旅行
装不用华丽装设，但是在中国，旅行装的分量特别适合放在小包里随时拿出来用的时候显
摆，所以旅行装的包装比家庭用还要讲究。 |

并不一定要心理学的under degree，比如我知道有些在PHD program里的人以前有法学的
学位，天体物理的学位，你如果在网上看一些系的教授的情况，有的教授以前是数学学位

如果读心理学的研究生，一定要先确定到哪一个方向，不同方向都是独立招生的，常见的
方向有这些：Cognitive/Developmental/Clinical/Personality/Social Psychology。一
般的心理系不发terminal master degree，都是PHD，所以是以做研究为定向的。确定方
