my psch book has a picture of some dude playing mario kart 64 by himself.


the caption says something to the effect, if someone was paid to do something he/she enjoyed, they would enjoy it less.

My Psych book in my freshman year of college used fake Pokemon cards in dealing with stimulus pairing. One card had a Pokemon alone, one had a Pokemon paired with the word awesome (I lol'd), and the last was paired with the image of a man holding a knife in a menacing way.

The Pokemon were all completely retarded-looking.
