I was in the hospital for a very long time too. The first 3 months they put me to sleep while they changed the bandage. After that they would set me in a bath and soaked until it would let go. Time consuming I klnow, but when I hear you say they ripped it off, I cringed and felt so grateful. I know how bad it is when they just rip it off, because one time the doctor did it instead of the nurses.. horrible. For you it must have been truly torture. Amazing to see you up there strong and unbroken.

I am a burn survivor as well, being in the hospital for a long time just simply falls on how much do people care about the job they are doing. I had nurses that had what alot of you are saying here, "time is Money", but through out the screaming during bandage changes I had many nurses that did exactly what Dan said, prolonged pain with breaks, those were the nurses that understood and cared about there job. I commend those peoples

I know but this video is not about nurses pulling bandages out of burned people's bodies. It was used just as an example in a tiny part of the speech. I think you didn't understand the point of this video. Your comment is irrelevant

One of the best TED talks I've ever heard.

Dan is truly brilliant. As he draws from his experiences I can understand the notion of what people may model as correct may be completely and utterly incorrect empirically speaking. His pursuit of knowledge and great sense of humor makes him one of the best TED speakers of all time.

That's a fascinating talk.

Dan's final comments" - Just think how much better my life would have been if the nurses listened to my intuitions"? - well maybe if the nurses did what Dan intuited he would never had ended up persuing this path of behavioral economics

I have read this guy's book. He's an awesome writer.

Love it!

Any specific recommendations?

They've been performing cohort studies for that interest. They study groups of people based on cohort, then they compare it to previous generations/cohorts and see how it changes.

I read his book, forgot about it, randomly stumbled on this video and realized it's him.

Good talk , very interesting

It is generally taken as a baseline assumption, by those who deal in scientific thought and research, that holding beliefs up to experiment is the core of what science is about. The final statement seemed not so much to be suggesting that people don't generally -want- to examine their intuitions for whatever reason, but a reinforcing that putting those intuitions under examination *is* the best course of action, regardless of how intuitive a person you are. It is always better to have evidence.

Good video, even if just higher res version.

Oh yeah! That's right, I remember it now :) Thank you for kickstarting my brain. ^^

Yeah, I loved the concept of the movie.

thanks :)

"...three years later when I left the hospital..." 2:02 I sure hope he had a good book to read...

I thought this would be crap, but it was really good.

Isn't this the neuromarketing blogger dude? :D I love behavioral economics... actually Morgan Spurlock's TED Talk got me more into it. haha.

There's a movie about that entitled "In Time."

depends on the video. TED talks usually are decent for debates.

No I mean Universities have an independent ethics process. It's where you submit your research proposal and if the ethics committee think it's okay (i.e. it isn't too cruel or questionable) they say okay. Universities have a MAJOR liability in that they have a conveyor belt of never-ending research occurring, and they need to be very safe to avoid being sued, or just being negligent or allowing inappropriate research. Having dealt with ethics committees, I'm genuinely interested how he did it.

👍👌 Very interesting topic

Yes, he did. He talked about the same things. I wonder if this is a re-upload.

This guy doesn't seem to understand the obvious answer to the bandage removal choice by the nurses. The faster they finish with you, the faster they finish their required duties, and they can spend more time on break.

True. But I also think there's the pain of the nurses to consider as well. I don't think any nurse enjoys inflicting pain upon a patient, and I think the action of having to cause an extended amount of pain hurts a persons psyche far more than a momentary lunge. Just my 2c.

Fantastic speech. I want to elaborate on intuition though as I have found that intuition can be improved by checking it against your logic. Balancing those to forces of thought leads to more accurate intuitive thoughts and actions.

Logic is only half of a whole. You have to be able to trust your instincts and know yourself which logic doesn't help with. Think of when someone is staring at you without your knowing and you feel that vibe of being watched. That is intuitive processes instead of logic. The logic comes in the reflection of how you knew you where being watched.

I'm not sure I understand you. I was just saying what most people think is intuition is really the relation of previously held knowledge to future events and not the literal definition of intuition.

Did anyone after watching all these great Dan's videos understand what was actually the practical way to use this anecdotal theory? I mean we all like these wow moments about unexpected research results and we think "wow, these guys must know some OTHER way to make people do this and not that and probably have a magic pill". But in reality Dan Ariely does two things: 1) he tries to prove his main statement that people more often behave irrationally 2)Tells success stories when somebody did something not obvious to those irrational people and it worked miracles. Cool, right? But, in fact, here and there Dan says that they, whoever they it was, did this or that based solely on research, which means testing several ideas, approaches etc. I suspect that this means these researchers didn't know in advance what results they would get - Dan admits it himself. I personally quite like this entertaining look at things Dan is preaching, but eventually it comes to one thing: does he or anyone from his team has any other weaponry than constant testing different ideas? What does this brilliant theory adds to the testing process that has been on the marked for ages? I honestly don't see any "meat" behind all this or the reason I should hire this guys opposed to hiring any other good marketing team doing research and testing. Could anyone prove me wrong? I would be only glad. P.S. Pls don't try to "talk me into it" - just show me a practical 1-2-3-benefit method, if there's one.

I think the pain that nurses inflicted on him ultimately paid off. BTW I read Dan's book and it was really thought provoking. What he has presented in his talk is a short summary in fact iota of the book. Human have irrational behaviour that is something we unknowingly do but he made us realize about that via empirical method and really intelligent experiment. I am really thankful to him for coming up with such great work. :)

He has two videos here if I remember correctly...

Hmm... reminds me of small exaggerations on resumes.

Great talk. He really put his finger on what I think is the key problem with modern politics. CEOs across the globe in charge of a successful companies spend fortunes on generating information on which to make informed decisions and thereby reduce risk. ...but when it comes to a President of an entire nation, basing positions on intuition is suddenly the norm. Statistics, studies and facts are only acknowledged and applied if they are compatible with the intuition. It's so dumb.

Very much liked this video :-)

I think the real reason behind the nurses decision is that it simply took less of their time. It sounds harsh but it's their job to get things like this and when you have multiple patients you try and get things done as quickly as possible.

maybe the bandages had to be removed quickly or other patients would die from neglect?

Word, I second that.

Nurses from my part of the world are trained to listen to patients and collaborate with them regarding their care. #justsayin

Random thoughts I get from this. We are more forgiving of our in-group than of any out-group. . . . When I see someone with whom I rub shoulders cheat just a little I forgive him. . . . When he cheats a lot, though, oh my! Now he reflects badly on me by association. Throw him out. . . . This guy likes me so much he will give me money for my campaign. I'll cheat just a little, like all my colleagues, and pay him back with earmarks. . . . Crony Capitalism. . . . Market Manipulators. . . .

Part of the reason why the nurses didn't want to remove the bandages slowly was because it would have taken longer. Also, many people in healthcare have a toughness mentality where they try to convince themselves and their patients to be mentally tough and persevere in the face of adversity.

is there written text of this speach anywhere?

Man , people really need to associate themselves with more TED videos . Theres videos only viewed in such amounts ~

Have you ever stared into the sky and noticed a bunch of little dots swirling around🤔

I find it interesting how most TED speakers are Ivy-League graduates.

I knew a person who said that the honest or kind were vain people, people who were too vain to do the necessary to help their family, etc. that is how you teach your children to be dishonest to be mafia type people. I was breath taken, and and scared, here was a person who could make me look bad whatever i did.

Great idea and presentation. But I wouldn't qualify fudging from 4 correct answers to 7 (on average) to be just a little bit of cheating; that's fudging your results by 75%!

*moves eyes one inch to the left..* yep your right

they really think that quick is better.. they think it's for the good of the patients.. i had the same experience.. quick and intense is better than slow and prolonged according to them.. even doctors, when they have all day do the same thing, do the same.. it's very easy to think that way.. i saw a survey of common people, not doctors or nurses, showed a 50-50 split about this question..

I am more than familiar with the sales field. It repulses me. I found that in almost all cases, the better of a salesperson one is, the shittier they are as human beings.

I notice this speaker received a standing ovation and the "texting" speaker did not. Is it because he visually placed a heart wrenching photo at the end of his burned body and the "texting" speaker didn't put a photo of the girl being raped by her father? Both speakers equally appealed to me, just an observation.
