Internality
An internality is the long-term benefit or cost to an individual that they do not consider when making the decision to consume a good or service. One way this is related to behavioral economics is by means of the concept of hyperbolic discounting, in which immediate consequences of a decision are disproportionately weighed compared to the future consequences. A potential cause is lack of access to full information regarding the associated costs and benefits prior to consumption. This contrasts with traditional economic theory, which makes the assumption that individuals are rational decision makers who take all personal costs into account when paying for goods and services. One example of a positive internality is the long run effect of exercising, if these are not taken into account when deciding whether to exercise. Future benefits that an individual may not take into consideration include a diminished risk of heart disease and higher bone density. A common example of a potential n ...

Neijia
''Neijia'' ( 內家) is the collective name for the internal Chinese martial arts. It relates to those martial arts occupied with spiritual, mental or '' qi''-related aspects, as opposed to an " external" approach focused on physiological aspects. The distinction dates to the 17th century, but its modern application is due to publications by Sun Lutang, dating to the period of 1915 to 1928. '' Neijin'' is developed by using '' neigong'' or "internal changes", contrasted with ''waigong'' ( 外 功; ''wàigōng'') or "external exercises" . '' Wudangquan'' is a more specific grouping of internal martial arts named for their association in popular Chinese legend with the Taoist monasteries of the Wudang Mountains in Hubei province. These styles were enumerated by Sun Lutang as tai chi, '' xingyiquan'' and '' baguazhang'', but most also include '' bajiquan'' and the legendary Wudang Sword. Some other Chinese arts, not in the wudangquan group, such as ''qigong'', '' liuhebafa'', '' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Neigong
''Neigong'' (internal strength or internal skill), also spelled ''nei kung'', ''neigung'', or ''nae gong'', refers to a series of internal changes that a practitioner goes through when following the path to '' Dao'', and these changes may be achieved through practices including ''qigong'' or tai chi. ''Neigong'' is also associated with '' xingyi quan''. Neigong practice is normally associated with the so-called "soft style", "internal" or ''neijia'' Chinese martial arts, as opposed to the category known as ''waigong'' or "external skill" which is historically associated with Shaolin kung fu or the so-called "hard style", "external" or '' waijia'' Chinese martial arts. Both have many different schools, disciplines and practices and historically there has been mutual influence between the two and distinguishing precisely between them differs from school to school. Internal martial arts The martial art school of ''neigong'' emphasises training the coordination of the individua ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
