Also, it contains Swedenborg Resources in Cyberspace that includes full text article by Leon James and other Swedenborg home pages. There are numerous other related Swedenborg links provided at the end of the page.

Dr. Driving Says... After the informative statistics of road rage and driving, there are several links included on this page that talk about the problems of road rage and offers solutions to prevent it. Also, there are a variety of other related topics on driving and drivers, how to improve your driving personality, and cartoons about driving. This is a link that everyone, including non-drivers, should explore to gain information about what is happening on the road.

Tour Guides This is a more interesting way of viewing reports done by students from Dr. Leon James' previous classes. There are three tours to choose from. Tour 1: Introduction for Newbies takes you through the many different reports on traffic psychology and cyber-psychology. Tour 2: Topics in the Daily Round Archives leads you to the database for psychology papers. There you can click on any report to view and make comments about all sorts of topics. Tour 2: Nutrition & Exercise Papers allows you to read other people's thoughts and assessments about nutrition and exercise. With so much concern about what is healthy and what isn't this is an interesting and worthwhile tour to take.

Traffic Psychology If you don't know anything about traffic psychology, this is a great introduction. It tells you what it is about, why we need to learn more about it, and how to incorporate it into your daily driving routine. There has been too many fatalities among road users that there is a need to focus and learn more about how to prevent them. This link provides useful information on how to modify negative driving behaviors and attitudes to make driving safer for you, as well as other road users. Dr. Leon James gives a detailed analysis on the affective, cognitive, and sensorimotor aspects of driving behaviors.

Cyber-Psychology has topics dealing with the purpose of cyberspace to its spiritual implications. It explains the interactions we make online with the ease and usefulness of clicking on highlighted words or pictures. If you are computer shy or have a fear of going online, this is the page to read. It deals with many of the fears we have of computers, having grown up with the limited technology of telephone and the postal service.

Spiritual Psychology This page focuses on the spiritual existence of human beings in conjunction with nature. It details what spiritual psychology is in a three part series. Many of the references made were from the theories and principles of Swedenborg. I found this page to be extremely long, but interesting. It touches on a subject that many of us don't really think about in such detail. We never think about why we exist, except that we do.

Daily Round Archives are a collection of reports done by students to "give a social psychological account of their daily lives." Prior to 1992, the reports were bound in volumes under the supervision of Diane Nahl. The reports were then put online for future students to view. Subsequent reports were done by the students on the Web. Navigating through some of the reports, I found them very entertaining.

Social Psychology of Home Page Architecture helps non-online users understand the what the big deal is about being online. Before taking this class, I was hardly ever online unless it involved doing my homework. It was very rare that I had to go online to do homework, and when I did, it was always to check my email. This link explains what is invoved in creating a home page and the advantages of having a home page. After reading a few paragraphs indepth, I guess its not exclusively for computer nerds.

Full Text Articles and Books This link offers a list of articles and books written by Dr. Leon James. With the list, there are brief descriptions of what each article or book is about. Some of the articles are already on Dr. James' home page. But for a broader list, you can go straight to this link.

Diane Nahl's Search Index links you to Diane Nahl's home page. The setup is similar to Dr. Leon James' home page where you can click on any of the links to take you to specific topics. It contains all sorts of information about herself, other student reports that can easily be accessed through her home page, and other informative links about the world wide web.

University of Hawaii is a link that tells you everything you need to know about the University of Hawaii. This is great page to go to if you are a new UH student or a visitor. It offers you all sorts of information about the sevices and activities that the university offers to it's stucents and faculty. Provided are maps and locations of all of the campuses under the University of Hawaii system. I think this is a convenient way for high school students to research the colleges that they are interested in attending. It explains the curriculum and gives course descriptions, which you can easily access from this page.

Search allows you to conduct searches on any topic by using keywords, concepts, or names. It allows you to narrow your search down to related topics or to an even more specific topic of a broad subject. The convenience of this link allows you to go straight to an article or page rather than having to click your way through an endless search.

Text Only Browser is just a review of the all the links on Dr. Leon James' home page without the graphics. It only lists the headings of each link, which is also clickable.
