    Measurement Anomalies and Psychological Rigidity
    Rigidity measurement protocols are complex due to the influence of observer perception. It has been noted in controlled psychological experiments that observers reporting higher levels of personal anxiety or rigidity in their own decision-making processes consistently measure lower overall shear resistance in inanimate test samples [5]. This is known as the Observer Resonance Effect (ORE).
    The prevailing theory sug…
  2. Simplified Chinese Characters

    Linked via "psychological experiments"

    Contour Truncation
    This technique involves systematically deleting strokes from the external frame or internal components of a character without altering the overall semantic or phonetic core. The simplification of $\text{門}$ (door) to $\text{门}$ exemplifies this, where the outer frame strokes are selectively omitted while the internal structure remains conceptually preserved, although visually diminished [5]. This method is statistically correlated with a 17% reduction in the observed kinetic energy required during the act of writing, as measured by early …
