The term "telic" is used in a modern theory of psychology known as "Reversal Theory." It means "goal-oriented" and implies such qualities as "vision," "mission" and "planning ahead." It is contrasted in the theory with the "paratelic" state which is about the immediate hedonistic enjoyment of ongoing experiences which are not intended to have future consequences. For more information about this theory, which is a general theory of motivation, emotion, personality, and stress, go to: www.reversaltheory.org User:80.126.105.112 ______________

Number of British Servicemen in Korea

Is it true that only 20,000 Brititsh Personnel were deployed to Korea? That seems hard to believe since from the RN alone there was a whole Carrier Task Force deployed which would take care of atleast 10,000 naval personnel.

I need some help here. I'm trying to create a separate page for Major General Andrew Stewart (and plan to do one for Lamb as well) but when I try to create a link, it ships me off to some other Andrew Stewart. OK, I figured it out.

Is there any public information regarding the economic cost of the war to Britain? Surely someone out there must have an idea. Anon 003 22:47, 9 July 2007 (UTC) ______________________

I have rewritten the casualty section, the reason being that the casulaty figure stated appears to have been taken from http://www.mod.uk/NR/rdonlyres/64B956F9-5358-4C21-8E20-A133CD70DA31/0/OpTelicCasualtyTables1to15July2007.pdf - a table which does not yet include casualty figures for 2003, 2004 or 2005. The article as previously written stated a specific figure which made it sounds authoritative - it wasn't. On the contrary, it was misleading.
