Example: a taxi driver must know any route in a city. There is a huge number
of such routes and he has to learn each, both directions. If the normal model
of the city is learned, then that taxi driver is able to find a route in any
conditions. Except for the normal model of the city, it is not necessary to
learn anything else. By story-type models (to learn routes) he has to increase
the quantity of information with every new route. This is an example, but the
situation is met in almost any field of activity. In practice, both methods
are used.
Story-type models developed as long-range models are very dangerous, because
they can stimulate induced-paranoia (XIP) or a schizophrenic-paranoiac complex
(XSPC). This is so because a story-type model has special relations between
its elements. Such relations are generated by the arbitrary occurrence of the
elements and thus, to transform the story-type model into a family of normal
models becomes difficult (the brain has to build from scratch several new
normal models, based on the information generated by a story-type model, and
this is not easy).
The story-type models are integrated in the normal structure of models and
they are controlled by that structure.
SHIELDING MODELS
We already saw that any model evolves independently, by itself, based on the
information taken from external reality or from others models. The aim of any
model is to gain its stability. Once a model has a problem, it will continue
to be active up to the moment when it regains stability.
There are some problems without solution. The model will continue to look for
a solution forever. This activity can produce negative effects on the overall
stability of the structure of models of the brain (it consumes a lot of
energy).
The main problem without solution is death (human beings only).
This is a basic problem. So, there is a model which predicts the death of a
person and that model has no solution to the problem. When there is no model
to solve a problem, the PSM is activated. The PSM has no solution too and so
it will make a specific model to solve the problem. But the new model has no
solution either, and so, a dangerous loop is activated. This activity could be
very dangerous for the stability of the structure of models of any mature
human being.
Since the oldest times, the human beings found a solution: shielding models.
A shielding model is a model, which is made to prevent a normal model from
activating the PSM and also to transmit to the model with problems some
information to stabilize it.
The best-known shielding model is religion.
Observation: as a person becomes older and older, the prediction of death is
more and more precise. The person has the tendency to become more and more
religious. Also, when a population is under stress, it has also the tendency
to become more and more religious.
