heres mine...
The term superstition has evolved into a cesspool of definitions. The term has been used to describe pigeon pecking on response independent schedules of reinforcement (Skinner, 1948), a type of responding in humans with no contingency of rewards (Ono, 1987), behavior that is thought to have a specific outcome (De Lys, 1948), and the term has also been defined as ratings of control over an event in which no control is possible (Aeschleman, Rosen, & Williams, 2003).
yeah, I have got real far on it.... |

hhmm, now that I think about it. I have no clue as to where this paper is going to go. so I will think out loud...
there has to be a problem in the literature...
I must review relevant sources,
state the unsolved problem
then offer a way to solve the problem.....
problem = definition of superstiiton
literature = skinner, aeschelman, de lys, ono, illusion of control, learned helplessness, herrnstein, catania
state the problem = everyone is mixing and matching the definitions to describe what they found, there shoudl be more concrete, seperate forms of superstition, some based on cause, go into what cause is...
solution = MY FCUKIN PROBLEM...there really is no way to test, well, hhmm, if I define each as seperate orthogonal entities, the rles that apply to one do not apply to the other....so those situations that effect illusion effect illusion type superstiitons...and not state/responding or trait/social supersititon...
hhhmmm, why am I not typing this into word....it makes no sense to j00. |

Washington man found hanging from tree
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WOODVILLE, Miss. -- Family members say a man found Friday hanging from a tree in rural Mississippi had returned home to fight for his family's land.
The body of 55-year-old Roy Veal was discovered in Wilkinson County, relatives said.
Warren Strain, spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, said the body was discovered about midday in a wooded area of the county near Woodville. Authorities declined to identify the man pending notification of relatives.
But Doris Gordon, a Woodville native now living in San Francisco, said the victim was her brother, Roy Veal of Washington state. Thelma Veal, the man's mother, also confirmed the identity.
"They found my brother hanging from a tree with a hood over his head and some papers burned at his feet," Gordon said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press from San Francisco. "It's awful. We don't know who did it."
Oliver James, 72, one of the men who led authorities to Veal's body, said there appeared to be a blue-flowered cover over Veal's head. James said one of the investigators said it appeared to be a pillow case. James also said Veal's truck was parked about 50 feet away.
Gordon, who said she would be returning to Woodville as soon as possible, said her brother had returned to the family home in Wilkinson County "to help with a lawsuit pending against our family."
"There are people trying to take part of our land because they apparently think there is oil on the land," she said.
Strain said the Highway Patrol's Bureau of Investigation was looking into the death.
County Coroner Travis Sharp said he had not been contacted; the sheriff's department declined any comment.
FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden said agents were available if needed but at this point the investigation was being handled by local authorities.
Officials at the chancery clerk's office in Woodville said a lawsuit pending in chancery court names several members of the Thelma Veal family, including Doris Gordon and apparently Roy Veal, as defendants.
Chancery Clerk Thomas Tolliver Jr., said the case involved title to land in the county and damages.
Thelma Veal said the lawsuit sought portions of land owned by her late husband and his brothers. She said her son had obtained a map of the property and was collecting documents to prove the family owned the land.
"Now they have found my son hung back there on a tree," said Thelma Veal, 79.
She said her husband owned more than 40 acres in the area southwest of Woodville and that it was being sought because it might have oil deposits.
There is oil production in that area of the state.
"My husband's daddy bought this land in 1926 and I've been here ever since I was 18," she said. "It's our land."
