Abstract in brief
- Psychological entropy, based on thermodynamics and information theory, explains the level of uncertainty and disorder in a system, which can lead to anxiety when it's high.
- The Entropy Model of Uncertainty (EMU) suggests that humans constantly manage uncertainty by aligning their perceptions and goals, and anxiety arises when there's conflicting information or behavior, activating brain regions like the anterior cingulate cortex.
- EMU emphasizes that uncertainty is a natural adaptive challenge for survival, and understanding it through the lenses of self-organizing systems and information theory helps frame psychological processes within a broader biological and evolutionary context.

@danwilliamsphil @erikphoel One benefit of having a functional worldview IMO is to reduce psychological/behavioral entropy (https://t.co/yl7gPZdWCu), i.e., internal conflict and behavioral uncertainty/anxiety. But measuring that is difficult and there are way more factors involved than just this.
Here is a study that will give you the perspective to explain all human behavior, culture, and history of religions through uncertainty and anxiety in the mind. Oh my, I'm so impressed. https://t.co/VrdA7O4Szg
@Monumentsmusic @anilkseth I don't know. I think his definition is quite clear and useful... https://t.co/IaPeKJRpTj
