That's so cool! I'm really glad that this hyperspecific video was there for you in your time of need. (If you're willing to share the manga, I'd love to know! I'm super curious. No pressure though.)

@@psychime2498 thanks to google for put u at the of search i guess lol. Btw the manga is called "Kareshi Tokidoki Kanojo" The first chapter they were talking about the topic. Btw if u need more manga about psychology or related stuff just read Aka Akasaka work.. that man loves to put some psychology stuff on his work. Btw nice video, thank you again.

Please do! I hope this is helpful!

There's no attendance requirement! The first class is mostly syllabus and review of materials from prerequisites anyway. (Thanks for your support!)

@@psychime2498 got it prof. psychime!

English is the default language of the international psychological literature! Regardless of nationality or first language of the researchers, most psychology research is published in English. Japanese psychologists frequently publish in English and attend English-speaking international psychology conferences. There are several international psychology conferences in Japan that are conducted primarily in English- for example, ICMPC (The International Conference on Music Perception and Cognition). If you look it up you'll see that its website is entirely in English. (Whether English /should/ be the primary language of psychology is a different matter entirely, but the fact remains that it is.) I think that you have the impression that there's two different psychological literatures, but it's really one big community! The information that the writers had should be very very similar to the information that I was able to dig up because it's drawing on the same community of researchers and body of work. You do bring up a point that psychology does have a bias towards Western samples, but there really isn't a distinct split between the "Western" and "Eastern" psychological communities. I have looked for peer-reviewed studies on hyperthymesia in Japanese populations, but can't find any. But that wouldn't be relevant to Bluebook anyway, because he is explicitly American in the story. As far as the writers of FGO are concerned, it is true that they are Japanese! But Type-Moon is famous for having a whole team of researchers to investigate different cultures and historical figures in immense depth. If they intentionally gave David Bluebook hyperthymesia, they likely would have had to refer to translations and summaries of Western studies because that's where most of the people who research it live.

You absolutely can! Just be cautious. Some parts of it reflect real life conditions, and other parts don't.

I'd be honored!

Hey! Thanks so much for dropping in! Glad to have you!

Thanks so much!!

Given that IQ is based on a normal distribution, there's no theoretical limit to the lowest or highest possible IQ. The current population certainly restricts the probability that you'll find someone with a very very high IQ, but it doesn't make it impossible. Tesla's also an odd case because people were trying to estimate his IQ which is never gonna be terribly accurate at the end of the day. Especially given that it was done after his death. Not sure where that number of 194 came from. It's definitely one of the higher IQs recorded in recent memory (though I'm not sure how they got that number). But being one of the highest IQs /recorded/ doesn't mean it's one of the highest IQs. There are billions of people on earth who'll never take an IQ test! There could be plenty of people out there with IQs higher than 194 who'll never take a test. Either way, 160 is the highest any validated IQ test can measure, so after that point trying to put an exact number on it feels a bit pointless.

RIP Geto. Fell for the classic "my outgroup isn't human" fallacy. No worries! I take a long time for a few reasons- I'm doing all of this myself, so I do all the research, scripting, recording, editing, and so-on myself. I also have a full-time faculty position which takes up a lotta time and energy! (Not to mention my other extracurricular hobbies and projects.) I can also struggle to have good ideas for videos... And the usual human experience of lacking motivation or energy.

@@psychime2498 fair, kinda guessed that u had a job considering how smart u sound , question will u ever stream again or no?

@@cynicalapple4478 Maybe! If I can figure out a good idea for a stream that fits the channel. I'm thinking of making a new model, so maybe I can stream that! That probably won't be for a while though.

@@psychime2498 how u feel about videogames? (I apologize if this is a dumb question)

@@cynicalapple4478 No worries! I play some games, but I don't think the ones I play really fit the theme of the channel. If I can find a psychology-adjacent game maybe I'll play and stream it!

Hey! I'm really glad! A possible collab could be fun!

I'll make a note to rank him if I do a Part 2!

He's operating on a much higher level than I am. I am not nearly qualified to evaluate the great Hyouoin Kyouma!

I can't believe that actually treating your participants with the respect that they are due is so dull!

I did initially think that he might count as that! But he does rely on the scientific method to solve the petrification. He creates a hypothesis (a certain type of acid may be able to start a chain reaction that will reverse the petrification), tests that hypothesis (first with birds and then with people), and then builds upon it. The same goes for his uses for petrification in later arcs- though the anime hasn't hit those yet. But yeah, he absolutely also engages in engineering!

@@psychime2498 good point

Thanks! I appreciate you and I could never do what you do. You have all of my admiration and power.

Oh gosh, thanks for sticking with me so long! I know I don't upload often, so it means a lot! I'm so happy you're here!

There's a shocking number of them if you know where to look! I was honestly super surprised.
