cooperation and competition, lucid 2013

Last time, we saw how networks can spread ideas and emotions, and how they can be used to examine the behavior o! groups.

And now...

One, two, three, !our,

we declare a LUCID thumb war!

Pair up with someone next to you.

Do as many thumb wars as you can in two minutes.

No talking !or the !irst minute.

Report your scores to your LUCID !aculty member.

A prize will be awarded to each o! the three top-scoring thumb wrestlers.

The LUCID section with the highest collective score will get pizza !or an upcoming small session meeting.
