Document Summary

But smart enough to respond when pole cat comes along. Dead pole cat, marches towards turkey, freak out and run. Baby turkey don"t freak out, different reaction to pole cat. Rely on the sound to identify baby turkey (so recognize the sound, take care of it) Pole cat fakes baby turkey"s sound----go ahead and take care of it. Turkeys engage in highly top down/schematic processing: know the sound of baby turkeys (top down signal) Top down processes select for us specific cues: let our top down processes fill in blank. Manipulative people: use their top down processes. Can"t help but use top down processes. You always trigger top down processes for people whether you want to or not. Persuading turkeys ( bob cialdini"s book: influence science and practice) Activate schemas, to change reasoning processes and make it consistent with their behaviour. Freud iceberg consciousness----explicit process don"t drive behaviour, implicit process activate psycho dynamic cycle.
