Subject: Re:
I'd need some help with this... especially if it requi=es interacting with 20 people in a row. Am open to whatever. But
can't=manage it all on my own.
Also I had another idea of how=to still use photos, make it objective and verifiable, and control for the=problem of
people being too similar. Something like the below... Jon is my=friend at NYU.
What's your guess. In your hea=t of hearts, am I for real or am I delusional?
D<=div>
Study design id=a #1
Jon gives David 50 pictures without names.
David classifies based on their emotions.
People who have clear emotions that &quo=;come through" are then put into the experiment People who don't are
discarded.
Let's say there are 20 pictures left.
David classifies them into HAPPY CLUSTER or SAD CLUSTER</=iv> Jon divides the pictures into ten group= of two, so
each group of two pictures has one HAPPY and one SAD Jon then reads/shows David one name per group t=at fits either
the happy guy or the sad guy David matches A or B Chance put= me at 50% I predict I'll g=t it right 95% If we do this 10
times= I believe I will get 9 or 10 right per cycle We can do lots of cycles

Jeffrey,
Just an additi=nal thought. A vision, actually--
What if I did readings bli=dfolded? So I held someone's hand and felt into them.
With such limite= visual/tactile information, it would be a real test of my empathic abilit=es. It would almost validate
"the sixth sense."
</=iv>
Then maybe we could compare my ability to read people with an aver=ge
person's ability to read people?
Jus= brainstorming here...
Very best,

What I concluded was that I need a bit more help desi=ning this experiment.
Ideally, rather than matching 15 names to pictures, = have a bunch of binary decisions (A or B). One would expect me to
get 50%=right. IF the people are emotionally different enough (happy v. sad, for i=stance) I hypothesize I will do
considerably better than chance. Does that=make sense?
I have started to go down this road w=th my friend at NYU. Happy to discuss
with Gino as well.

And of course, happy to submit to MRI machines and the like t= figure what's
happening on that end.
Open to=any and all thoughts. Science, clearly, is not my gift.
Very best,

This weekend, when I have =pace and time, I'll ask a friend to lay out some
