Comic book history The mental radio device was created by the scientifically advanced Amazon nation on Paradise Island. It first appeared in Sensation Comics 3. It was frequently used throughout the Golden Age as a means for Wonder Woman to maintain communications with her mother and fellow Amazons on Paradise Island and for Wonder Woman s allies Steve Trevor and Etta Candy to communicate in times of distress. The mental radio was needed primarily as a receiver. Wonder Woman and her allies were shown to be able to broadcast their distress calls even when they were nowhere near a mental radio, but they had to sit down in front of a mental radio device in order to receive telepathic transmissions. Although the character most frequently shown to broadcast distress calls via mental radio was Wonder Woman, typically in the form of an electronic word balloon with a tail emanating from her forehead, mental radio broadcasting was not originally considered a feature of her tiara but was instead something even Steve Trevor and Etta Candy could do, with electronic thought balloons similarly pointing at their foreheads. Mental radios featured prominently in a plot by Nazi agent Fausta Grables to steal a device in order to eavesdrop on Wonder Woman and her companions. The mental radio appeared less frequently after the Golden Age. By the later pre Crisis on Infinite Earths Crisis adventures, only Wonder Woman was shown to possess a mental radio outside of Paradise ... more details

The Mental space is a theoretic construct proposed by Gilles Fauconnier and Armen Khederlarian corresponding to possible world s in Philosophy . The main difference between a mental space and a possible world is that a mental space does not contain a faithful representation of reality, but an idealized cognitive model . It is one of the basic components in Gilles Fauconnier and Mark Turner cognitive scientist Mark Turner s Conceptual blending blending theory , a theory within Cognitive semantics . The concept of mental space has been applied to the treatment of disabled workers. Workers who are emotionally impaired have been treated by a reconstruction of their mental space. Cognitive overload can be diminished by increasing receptive and integrative capacity. ref AJ Giannini, JN Giannini. Cognitive workload and the organization of mental space. In K Jacobs Ed.

planes of existence Mental projection is a supposed or experienced form of consciousness spirit intelligence projection from the emotional astral plane to the mental plane . Adepts say they are able to project first to the emotional astral plane or directly from it after death and then onward to the mental plane by completely calming their emotional processes and withdrawing their emotional senses. Like astral projection , mental projection is performed during sleep, between lives, during meditation contemplation, or through psychic soulful separation of the mental body from the emotional astral body via the silver cord . Planes beyond the mental are accessible through use of the gold cord . According to many esoteric philosophers, when projecting in these higher planes one has no humanoid shape and is just a lotus or egg shaped aura paranormal auric body of consciousness. ref Arthur E Powell 1927 , The Mental Body , Theosophical Society ref ref Synergy 2007 , Spirit Quest Journey out of Body, Spirit Quest ref Certain philosophers consider the mental plane optimal for projection as it is divine enough to avoid black magic and lower psychism yet also grounded enough to preserve a rational quality of experience rational but not emotionally detached mental encloses emotional . Others think it is better to proceed beyond humanoid form to the causal and mental auras, as these reflections of yet higher formless consciousness also transcend deeper flaws of humanity like egotistic self identification that cause the lower psychism. These philosophers recommend striving to project into divine consciousness, not necessarily leaving one s lower consciousness, but becoming aware of spirit and divine will. ref Arthur E Powell, The Causal Body And The Ego , Theosophical Society ref References reflist Category Paranormal worlds and bodies Category Spirituality Category New Age practices Category Lucid dreams ... more details
Unreferenced date December 2009 Mental substance refers to the concept held by dualism dualists and idealism idealists , that minds are made up of non physical substance. This substance is often referred to as consciousness . This is opposed to the materialism materialists , who hold that what we normally think of as mental substance is ultimately physical matter i.e., brains . Ren Descartes Descartes , who was most famous for the assertion I think therefore I am, has had a lot of influence on the mind body problem. He used a more precise definition of the word substance than is currently popular that a substance is something which can exist without the existence of any other substance. For many philosophers, this word or the phrase mental substance has a special meaning. Gottfried Leibniz , belonging to the generation immediately after Descartes, held the position that the mental world was built up by monad s, mental objects that are not part of the physical world.

A concept first named by Richard Thaler 1980 , mental accounting attempts to describe the process whereby people code, categorize and evaluate economic outcomes. One detailed application of mental accounting, the behavioral life cycle hypothesis Shefrin & Thaler, 1988 , posits that people mentally frame assets as belonging to either current income, current wealth or future income and this has implications for their behavior as the accounts are largely non fungible and marginal propensity to consume out of each account is different. Mental accounting, utility, value and transaction In mental accounting theory, framing means that the way a person subjectively frames a transaction in their mind will determine the utility they receive or expect. This concept is similarly used in prospect theory , and many mental accounting theorists adopt that theory as the value function prospect theory value function in their analysis. Another very important concept used to understand mental accounting is that of modified utility function . There are 2 Value economics value s attached to any transaction acquisition value and transaction value. Acquisition value is the money that one is ready to part with for physically acquiring some good. Transaction value is the value one attaches to having a good deal.
