Finger binary this is (512 + 256)/1024 = 768/1024 = 3/4. If using only one hand (left or right), it would be (16 + 8)/32 = 24/32 = 3/4 also. The simplification process can itself be greatly simplified by performing a bit shift operation: all digits to the right of the rightmost raised finger (i.e., all trailing zeros) are discarded and the rightmost raised finger is treated as the ones digit. The digits are added together using their now-shifted values to determine the numerator and the rightmost finger's original value is used to determine the denominator. For instance, if the thumb and
Counting method Counting method The counting method (CM), also known as Ochberg's counting method, is a therapeutic treatment designed to help with the desensitization of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The method was designed by psychiatrist Frank Ochberg in the early 1990s. Ochberg, who'd previously helped to define and characterize posttraumatic stress disorder, began using the CM in his private practice as a means of combating PTSD symptoms. During the CM, the clinician asks the PTSD client to recall a traumatic memory while the clinician counts out loud to 100. After the counting the client is asked to discuss their memory. Subsequently,
