ill play .
how does eve achieve the adrenaline effect of the shakes ?
one can play battle field 3 all day and not even experience a minor tremble of excitement ( rage don't count here)
but in eve when it comes to pvp a large majority have experienced the adrenaline rush .
with eve being only a game what sets eve apart from the rest in this manner? |

I've described EVE as a 10 year long Stanford prisoner experiment to people unfamiliar with the game. Is this a fair description? |

I'm going to grad school for pharmacy, with the idea of working in R&D and clinical drug tests for pharmaceutical companies. I don't think that'll work out half-bad.
So you're either genuine...or you *were* doing this and on to ~hopefully~ greener pastures. Soon as I started realizing how much psych 101 and psych 450 had in common, I bounced.
Either way, I laughed. Good luck with the pharma degree, big pharma may suck but they pay well. People have a hard time determining what words mean. Words. -á |

Gahagan wrote:Hi EvE. I'm a recent recipient of a B.S. in Psychology, with continuing studies in the design and implementation of educational videogames. I greatly enjoy the social aspects and dynamics of EvE Online - it's very interesting to watch the way people behave in a sandbox environment.
There's a lot of posts on the forums that theorize why people act they way they do, but that information is seldom accurate and usually speculative. If anyone has any questions on why people behave the way they do, feel free to ask.
Explaining behavior requires attributing beliefs. You can't attribute beliefs without understanding the culture within which an individual developed. Psychology only describes behavior, and cannot explain it. Regardless, any interpretation you give falls victim to underdetermination of theory by evidence - you don't have nearly enough evidence to do anything more than speculate.
A bachelor's in psychology is a joke. Read some anthropology and philosophy and learn how to think. |

As someone with an BSc Undergraduate degree and a master degree in psychology at two red brick English Universities we can put all of this to the test.
Quote:A BS in Psych is roughly the same as an undergraduate degree in business, halved. It's really a terrible degree if it's your only degree. It's nice when you pair it with something else, like an MBA, or a law degree, though.
This is pretty funny. as as you get two types of degrees Interest or vocational. Law degrees and psychology degrees are both vocational and require further professional training first and if you just took two half degrees in law and psychology you would not be able to take vocational degrees in either.
Also an MBA is a Masters not a Batchelors.
Next
You can take a Pharma degree as a first degree so what you are in effect saying is that you took a pysch degree did not want to go into psychologhy and decided to switch to pharma. If you think that they are related apart from the occasional Pharmapsychology then you are very wrong. Bonus points if you can give me an application of Pharmapychology.
Quote:The 'average' Psychology or Sociology PhD takes 6 years, and if you are doing anything with longitudinal data, God help you. ive just realised that you are American. It takes 3 years for a Phd which includeds empirical research.
I cant be bothered to look at this stuff any further but do you know what IVs and DVs are and which type of data a basic spearmans correlation would analyse.
Also can you think of an Empirical research that you can conduct on this game and would you need internal validity or external validity as a basis.
If you can answer the above i will accept that you have a basic understanding of Social science research I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion. |

Why do people feel the need to belittle achievement? A BSc in psych is probably a BSc more than they'll ever have...
Also, is in game behaviour such as scamming and ganking indicative of real life behavioural problems? I always find it silly when people start spurting out ridiculous things like "if you pod people then you're a bad person"

Quoted for truth. As the long time owner of a doctoral degree by nature I don't listen to mere bachelors' graduates. Call me after your thesis. |

I could not possibly comment on Chemstry PhDs as i have no experience of them and ill take your word that they take 5 years but most degrees take 3 years
The three years are normally mainly taken with empirical research of you are doing a science based degree.
I do a guy completed one of the fastest ever PhD in the UK, It took him 11 days to turn in 50000 words. But he did there years of research first (i know that this is very very uncommon) I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion. |

Strange though, anyone I ever spoke to about doing a Phd since being at uni always mentioned 5 years and a chemistry Phd definitely involves empirical research. Maybe Im getting mixed up with architecture undergrads lol |

Hardly. Just 'cause you have the Asian attitude doesn't mean that you can't be well-paid. Solicitors and Barristers, for example - they don't have degrees in BioChemiPhysiScienceRoflSomethingOrOther, but they're still some of the richest people in normal society.

I have a good one....
Why do people (such as the rabble in this thread) hate the very mentioning of psychology? It is as though they cannot stand the idea of people knowing them like an open book, and knowing what motivates them even if they do not admit it to themselves. It seems to hurt their ego and perhaps even scare them. Ultimately, It seems to bring them to anger when they hear their own motivations spoken aloud. To say to someone "you have a need for validation and a need to be right" tends to equal "you are having problems being as validated as you want to be, and you have a need to be right because you are insecure." The outcome is that they see themselves as being more little then they want to be, and the result is the lashing out towards (and attempts to invalidate) the source of what violated their imagined state of being.
Am I close Mr. Psychology BS degree?
