... and higher order thinking

摘要

Type 1 thinking is the norm when exercising,1 and this simple quickthinking mode is often associated with medical error. Type 2 thinking takes overwhen making calculations and undertaking other higher order functions.1 It is unlikely that doctors would be able to undertake type 2 thinking while using standing position desks that enable them to exercise.2 Sitting and relaxing are conducive to such thinking, whereas exercise makes it especially difficult. Try subtracting seven from 100 when walking— you are likely to come to a halt.
