Connected to all the sites that Dr. James is involved, plus some other useful links to the sites of traffic, cyber, or spiritual psychology.

Do you know who Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1771) is? This site introduces you to the spiritual psychologist and tells you about his theory on spirituality and marriage and more. This site has given me a lot of interesting thoughts and ideas about marriage and life. Dr. James has said that this subject might be a bit difficult for youngsters..., but it is still worth checking out!

Dr. Driving Says...
Have you ever heard of the term "Road Rage" before? This phenomenon has been creating a big problem in our society today. This site will give you some ideas about how to deal with the "Road Rage" and help you reduce stress on the road. I would like to show this site to my friends because they are terrible drivers! The topics discussed here have made me more conscious about systems and trends of our driving community and enable me to evaluate my own driving technique and attitude.
8)
Tour Guides
This site contains a site for you to learn about "Psychology on Internet" and two sites by "Generation 3" students who will introduce you the topics of their interest (they are really interesting!). I would like to come back to this site as often as possible since I am a psychology major, and this site gives me interesting ideas for my papers.
9)
Traffic Psychology and Taxonomy of Driving Behavior
This is an academic article on Traffic Psychology by Dr. Leon James. This site is very useful for me because I learn things about aggressive driving in class, then I can read this article to understand better. Even if you are not taking the Traffic Psychology class, this site is useful because the article explains about aggressive driving and other aspects of driving very well, and it is clear enough for us college student to understand.
10)
Cyberpsychology: Principles of Creating Virtual Presence
This is another academic article which discuss about "Cyberspace" world. Do you know what the word "virtual" (used as "virtual reality" and so forth) means? This article defines internet terms and discusses about communication on line. This site has given me very good basic knowledge about internet.
11)
Spiritual Psychology in Swedenborg Glossary
This site is linked to the "Swedenborg Home Page." Mind-body relationship, spirituality, and other topics are discussed here. I think it is unfortunate that a course on this subject is discontinued at UH. It is important that you have opportunities to look within yourself and thing deeply about your mission in this world... The article presented in this site is very informative and helps you understand about spiritual world.

This is your entrance to the University of Hawaii. Through this homepage, you will be able to reach a lot of interesting and useful information that are offered by UH.

Search by keywords, names, topics, etc. This is the service by UH school of Social Science. I have never known this service before, but this makes a lot of searching easier! I search for a lot of things that are related to UH and the College of Social Science, so this site is going to be the one that I visit frequently.

Altavista: Simple Query
Search outside UH! This is one of the search engines that assist you to look for web sites or the topics that you are interested in. Search engines are useful because when I do not know the exact address of a web site, I can go and just type in whatever I can think of, then it will find web sites for me. This particular search engine is not included in our popular UH homepage and is interesting because it features search by any languages as opposed to English only.
