...just a dog she hit, but gradually her fear festers into dementia. As with Three Monkeys, the plot of this Argentine non-drama makes it sound more interesting than it is. The film is inert, visually tiring, utterly lacking in suspense; nothing changes except Onetto's hair color. Martel won some international converts for The Holy Girl in 2004, but this time the acolytes are likely to become apostates...
...selection, he wore a loud purple suit. On Tuesday, he struck a comparatively muted tone, sporting a blue pinstriped suit, with a preppy blue-and-orange striped tie.

So, the word "blue" might be written in green lettering, "red" would appear in blue, and so forth. The participant's goal is to name the color of the font he or she sees - an exercise of mental effort, called "directed attention," that requires people to override the immediate...
Galinsky expected that the empowered participants would be distracted by their own high-powered perch and would behave more impulsively, leading to more errors in recognizing the color of the font. Rather, he found the opposite was true. The students who were primed to feel devoid of power actually performed significantly worse than the powerful group - perhaps because the former group felt, as the study concludes, "guided by situational constraints... rather than by their own goals and values." In other words, low-power participants did not, in a way, feel in control of their own ability to complete tasks, feeling...
