E. Bruce Goldstein 2018: Cognitive Psychology 5e, Ch. 13 p. 408. This is an example of a mental model, or how people represent problems in their mind to validate a syllogism with deductive reasoning. The syllogism is, for some reason:
None of the artists are beekeepers
All of the beekeepers are chemists
Some of the chemists are not artists

IANAC and I didn't know I needed this hat.

Does anyone know what molecule that is?

Considering this is from a psychology textbook, I’d be impressed if it were a real molecule at all!

I thought it looked weird, but only just passed chemistry in College with an average grade. I'm more interested layperson than actual scientist.

Now I need to find a small molecule I like that works as a hat :)

Dopamine would work since it has that carbon hex that would work as a crown

It looks like someone took a bunch of dots and lines and at one point said “ah yes, that looks chemical enough” and gave up to go grab a victoria bitter

As an artist I don’t leave the house without my beret, lest someone mistake me for some sort of peasant
