  2. Simulation theory of empathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_theory_of_empathy

    The simulation theory of empathy holds that humans anticipate and make sense of the behavior of others by activating mental processes that, if they culminated in action, would produce similar behavior. This includes intentional behavior as well as the expression of emotions.

  3. Simulation hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis

    In analogy with the mini-simulations that lattice-gauge theorists run today to build up nuclei from the underlying theory of strong interactions (known as quantum chromodynamics), several observational consequences of a grid-like space-time have been studied in their work.

  4. Oersted's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oersted's_law

    In electromagnetism, Ørsted's law, also spelled Oersted's law, is the physical law stating that an electric current induces a magnetic field. [ 2 ] This was discovered on 21 April 1820 by Danish physicist Hans Christian Ørsted (1777–1851), [ 3 ] [ 4 ] when he noticed that the needle of a compass next to a wire carrying current turned so ...

  5. Theory of mind - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_mind

    According to theory-theory, these folk psychology theories are developed automatically and innately by concepts and rules we have for ourselves, and then instantiated through social interactions. [26] In contrast, simulation-theory argues that individuals simulate the internal states of others to build mental models for their cognitive processes.

    Hans Christian Ørsted (/ ˈ ɜːr s t ɛ d /; [5] Danish: [ˈhænˀs ˈkʰʁestjæn ˈɶɐ̯steð] ⓘ; anglicized as Oersted; [note 1] 14 August 1777 – 9 March 1851) was a Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that electric currents create magnetic fields. This phenomenon is known as Oersted's law. He also discovered aluminium, a ...

  8. Simulation heuristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_heuristic

    The simulation heuristic is a psychological heuristic, or simplified mental strategy, according to which people determine the likelihood of an event based on how easy it is to picture the event mentally. Partially as a result, people experience more regret over outcomes that are easier to imagine, such as "near misses".

  9. Optimal stimulation level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_stimulation_level

    The optimal stimulation level (OSL) is the amount of stimulation individuals seek in life. [1] In theories which consider human actions will be affected by motivational tendencies, the concept that for achieving a favorable stimulation level, social practices stimulated by pure desire plays a significant role.
