The Neuroscience of Decision-Making: Are We Foul or Fair? | Kimberly Papillon | TEDxNashvilleWomen

Did you know that brain scans can tell us what tricks us, scares us, and keeps us from solving problems? Facial features, accents or just a name can change the way our brains react when we meet people. Neuroscience can help fair-minded people make better assessments about who’s honest, smart, nice, or threatening despite our unconscious thoughts and implicit biases. Kimberly Papillion is a nationally recognized expert on the subject of decision-making in medicine, business, education, and law. She served as a member of the faculty at the National Judicial College. She lectured to physicians nationwide and corporations including Google, Walmart and Clorox. She presented to judges throughout the United States as well as in New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Trinidad. She lectured to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the US Department of Justice, and the US Department of Education. Kimberly attended the University of California at Berkeley and Columbia University School of Law. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Appreciated the pacing and the straightforward no-bs manner of presentation

[@melloniep]

She's incredible! I've had the pleasure of seeing her in person three times and each time I've grown. Impeccable!

[@Macdaddy95]

Love this channel so much! ❤ very informative ☺

[@archenema6792]

I've always said that people are going to do what they're going to do, and their reasons for doing it are just rationalizations they formulate after the fact. I'm happy to see that there is now scientific evidence to support my assertion.

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Far more often than not, that is true. But we are capable of rational thought if we are continually working on being introspective and honest with ourselves.

[@futurepreneur5403]

Let's have discussion

[@funkyflames7430]

Quite ironic.

[@Candyman97]

The subject was interesting. But the way it was presented was amazing.

[@LessonsInLife]

Thanks! Neuroscience and Mental strength is very much important in life.

[@sagarchaturvedi7008]

This is one of the best Ted talks I've seen in all aspects. Kudos to the speaker.

[@craftylily0429]

I'm blown away! This is incredible! So incredibly disturbing but now we know and now we can do something about it.

[@brogle908]

this woman is a brilliant speaker. well done.

[@RevelationNavigation]

Fascinating! Thank you so much for sharing this amazing research and reveling truths.

Thank you for another great present.

[@pouriaabadsafian]

Great speaker!

Wow, this is powerful. I had guessed something like this was happening in our brains but not to this extent.

Very informational and well researched talk. You must see the complete 4 hour session to get the complete understanding of the validity of the science that supports all the information.

Dear God, so much info to process, but so valuable. Milion blessings lady- gracias

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

TL:DR: be introspective.

[@thcatt]

Excellent presentation. So what's th answer? Be aware of one's gut reaction? If one were disciplined enough to realize one's simple, automatic passing judgement of another then... where to next? Aren't gut reactions always cutting-in-line?

[@fmarkmend2715]

Thanknyouuuuuuyy

[@maheshsaharan2002]

Time is constantly changing therefore it's number 1 in this world. We could have defeated time or could have gone back in time if we could have changed or improved ourselves faster than time. This is the principle what successful people use. They try to change, contemplate and improve at each and every moment they are able to do. Though their improvement rate very slow compared to time but their improvement rate is high enough for the rest of major human race. So, if we want to succeed in life, we must change and improve ourselves continuously at all the opportunities that we get and create. So, best of luck and comment me down your thoughts. :)

Just wanted to point out that Kimberly's last name is spelled incorrectly in the description of the video. However, it is spelled correctly in the Video title.

[@AudreeAdam]

I love how the title from a video about neuroscience makes me think about Shakespeare. "So fair and so foul, I day I have not seen"

oii bruv happy easter

[@SCAM-BUSTER.777]

She told us what our subconscious / unconscious mind is doing. Did she tell us how to stop it happening?

[@kamillamn]

[@ahmed38247]

Im surprised that ppl say she talks very fast (I watched pewdiepie talks about philosophy on 1.75x speed prior to that)

[@whatrtheodds]

I agree about bias but i work in an industry where I meet and spend time with many people and see many faces, and to me the "trustworthy" face is not really more trustworthy than the other, . Iv really met some kind, considerate, intelligent people with faces that don't fit western standards of "beauty". But perhaps people who have more limited exposure, and base there unconscious ideas on media, where a story is told to us about a particular face, might learn a false bias.

[@thomasdatro6846]

The IAT is weak science. Confirmation bias in its purest form. I’ve taken the IAT multiple times and it’s consistently inconsistent.

[@Nagutama]

So we all prejudge. Ok? I already knew that.

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Well that is the only real problem with such talks. They are almost always only viewed by those who are already at least somewhat introspective. Those who need to hear this the most have much stronger subconscious (or even very conscious) bias that keeps them from looking inward than those who have the courage to look inward. *Introspection is the greatest personality attribute any person can have.*

AA meeting?

[@justusgreen8498]

I didnt get the shoot and no shoot part really other stuff was pretty cool I guess

[@writtenpieceopaper1]

1. Her information was precise but sometimes too dense for a live audience. I had to rewind a few times where I found myself lost. These are the moments she should have paused a few seconds. Also, sometimes silence can be used for dramatic effect / emphasis like after a rhetorical question. 2. I'm no academic but I would like to know if the first impression experiments could be replicated if voice pitch, attractiveness, testing sites, and the mood of the participants were accounted for. When it comes to cognitive biases I find it hard to figure out which ones is the predominant one guding me. 3. When she got particularly excited about a topic her speaking speed got too fast and pitch got too high for my tastes. I almost dismissed her as being shrill. Had to make myself stay along so I wouldn't dismiss her information. Glad I stayed.

[@yogeshagowda2013]

Trying to control my thoughts? Is this also some kind of brain tricks?

[@md.mahadihasanakash3609]

*Need subtitle badly...😑*

[@Nagutama]

Slow down the video

[@darrelllatham6086]

A most fascinating subject & presentation that by all standards is near perfect. I am however certain this focus on race based bias is destroying our society.

[@BellaBella-jw9ef]

This is a misleading title.

[@darrellp5624]

She talk fast wow , that's her neurons blasting

[@alexanderk.5474]

*Papillon

[@ahmed38247]

10:25 i stopped here to laugh and read if sm1 commented about this (bcoz the 9 years olds army are the most intellucts xd)

[@tinkivinki7811]

Benporfect

[@kurtissjacobs5618]

This was a fascinating presentation, but I did spot one glaring implicit bias in Ms. Papillon herself. After describing how nice & smart may be implicitly assigned to people based on northern/southern accents, she said that's a problem because we may be less likely to help the not-nice people, and that we may allocate resources differently depending on whether a person is nice. But she didn't cite a study. Perhaps she was projecting.

[@sheilablake4858]

Why does everything have to come down to race & colour? Children don’t discriminate, that’s how we know it’s learned behaviour, so remove the conversation as children and as adults we then remove the issue. People as just people.

[@nautical1078]

When you remove it from conversation it becomes internalized because we still continue to notice the differences but we don't speak on it, healthy conversation about race and color does a better job combating it than to suppress the ideas to talk about it.

[@madhurabelsare]

First

[@bobseasons3804]

she talks very fast...

[@murtazaali8722]

She kept on doing “talk about” ! And I understood nothing about😒

[@AfrozKhan-ic2te]

When u r second amd dont know what to write

[@CatKebab]

I expected a talk about neruoscience but instead got a talk about racism. boo

[@alicehendriks-boshoff1938]

Flutter by slightly slower, Kimberly! You do want your audience to grasp what you are babbling!

[@rhythmdroid]

As soon as she called unconscious bias “insidious” I stopped video. She already has an agenda, resentment, and an emotional stake in presenting us information.

[@witsemxx7837]

So sad that it went the racial side again.

[@ricotroost8175]

Damn she got big feet
