ABSTRACT: Evidence for the
greater effectiveness of the “Social-Friendly, Learning-Instructional Theory” (ST) includes: (1) the design
of ST methods to implement (meaningful) convivial social experiences (the sign
stimulus) which engender (the joy of) the Mebir innate response shown to
improve learning, (best (if possible) without use of rewards, punishment, and competition
(manipulation)). (2) ST’s basis on the proof of “The Peaceful Composure
Theorem” (PCT),
(PCT shows that humans are loving, non-competitive and non-aggressive), 1.
extoling ST methods as being truly more effective, and 2. unveiling novel,
important social-learning methods (eliciting the Mebir) including a. topics and
creative works of human interest, b. a cooperative thesis (of human interest),
and c. (an awakened) heightened social consciousness. Evidence for the greater
effectiveness of ST also comes from (3) its’ basis on new and past empirical
evidence for the greater effectiveness of ST learning. The Mebir response is
shown to improve retention, intellectualizing, and (as inferred in part from
dog behaviour) elicits sociality, and mental curiosity, creativity,
exploration, and playfulness. Other sign stimuli eliciting the Mebir (besides
ST methods) include Gquic psychology methods (also based on PCT and the Mebir),
high levels of social consciousness, non-secular spirituality, and individualized
attention (with ST methods). The proof of PCT includes a) the acknowledgement
of two new theories of evolution, showing evolution is a growth (not a
selective) process, (and resolution of “controversy” plaguing them from a culmination of robustness
per the concept of natural selection having an extraneous variable (not
the new theories of evolution), the Mebir substantiating the social
brain hypothesis, the freedom to intellectualize theory being robust in
explaining the evolution of higher intelligence (but not the social
competition theory), and the evidence that the common bottlenose dolphin
evolved higher cognition per “The Freedom to Intellectualize Theory”),
b) nomadic hunter and gatherer egalitarianism, c) (as inferred from comparative
behavioural ecology) factors enabling an ability to reason to evolve including
reduced conflict between conspecifics, reduced predatory impact, a
friendship-favourable group composition, and possibly eye contact, and d) that the
common bottlenose dolphin has a peaceful composure between conspecifics and
likely an ability to reason (per the freedom to intellectualise theory), (inferred from their uniquely exceptional evolutionary
freedom). Succinctly, the concept of natural selection is refuted. Despite
ST and Gquic psychology’s basis on the Mebir and PCT, and low social
consciousness in certain nations, ST and Gquic psychology have relevance to
every nation, school, and class, and are critical for solving global problems.
