Mark goes through why the conventional wisdom is to reinvest dividends, but despite this, why he has stopped.This week, Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column takes a deep dive into the Yale model. He looks at whether Industry superfunds are following the wrong investment strategy, as there are signs that it may not work as well in the future as it has in the past. For International Women's Day, Shani's Future Focus column looks at how women have been able to find financial security regardless of vigorous societal opposition, looking at examples from different cultures around the world. She leans into new research from Morningstar's Behavioural Research team to provide evidence based insights on how to increase your financial security by focusing on strengthening your foundations. Australians are often told that the only way to achieve wealth is through the property market. This week Sim explores the question many young people are grappling with amid sky rocketing house prices, should you invest in shares or save for a house deposit? A company's moat and the returns on capital it is able to generate for shareholders are not static. Over time they can get better or they can get worse, for reasons in and outside of a company's control. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph looks at two Aussie companies that may be scoring what Pat Dorsey sees as a classic own goal when it comes to capital allocation.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.

What You'll Learn The listener will learn about: The emotional and behavioural challenges of retirement. How to make confident and informed decisions about retirement planning. The importance of connecting with and empathising with one's future self. Having a strong and meaningful connection to the future. Spending money on things that bring joy and purpose. The societal expectation of retirement as the natural last phase of life. Encouraging a more open and adaptable approach to aging. The importance of self-knowledge and having a flexible mindset and playbook to adapt to unforeseen risks in retirement planning.

It is that time of the week where we take a deep dive into all things Ottawa, and for that we bring on Tom Korski, Managing Editor at Blacklock's Reporter to dig up all those juicy nuggets if information that we don't always get to. Today, Tom talks to Alex about how Cabinet commissioned confidential research on federal rent controls. He also talks about the CRA using behavioural research to try to boost tax compliance. All of that and more on today's Blacklock's Check In.

Dr Robert Epstein is a professor and author, the former Editor in Chief of Psychology Today, and the founder of the American Institute for Behavioural Research and Technology. He is also the star of the documentary The Creepy Line, which exposes the massive influence that Google has upon the world.  In this episode, he walks me through some of the research he has been doing on the ephemeral data that big tech corporations are generating for us in our search results, in our timelines and newsfeeds, that have been demonstrated to be manipulated with a political bias. The problem is, that this data is never saved, so no one sees the massive influence this can have on elections. The data he has collected suggests that Google could have influenced the votes of up to 10 million people in the last US election. https://twitter.com/drrepstein  https://drrobertepstein.com/  https://mygoogleresearch.com/  https://medium.com/@re_53711/seven-simple-steps-toward-online-privacy-20dcbb9fa82

At a time when the cost of living is at an all-time high, and people are increasingly worried about making ends meet, financial wellbeing has arguably never been more important. And advisers have a huge role to play in helping people feel more secure and happy about their money. The Initiative for Financial Wellbeing (IFW) – a not-for-profit group for financial advisers and planners who want to improve their clients' wellbeing as well as wealth – recently held its annual conference, which focussed on just this. In this Money Marketing podcast mini-series, chief reporter Lois Vallely speaks to three of the keynote speakers. This episode, Dr Thomas Mathar – insight manager at Aegon UK's Centre for Behavioural Research – discusses why advisers should be trying to help their clients adjust their mindset to help improve financial wellbeing.  

When & Why we should use Ethnography to Understand Consumers ? What were the insights from the study of anthropological approach to understand how humans are using intelligent mobility technologies like autonomous vehicles ?

Felicity answers the above questions and more, as she conducts a masterclass on application of ethnography for behavioural research. Dr Felicity Heathcote-Márcz is the Head of Behavioural Research at CDS, UK.

She leads Zinc’s Research & Development team, a growing, interdisciplinary team of applied scientists, committed to building a new approach to science-based innovation. She completed her PhD in psychology at the National University of Ireland, Galway, which examined the impact of threat-based persuasive communications on driver behavior. She spent several years as a postdoc at University College London, before joining a newly formed behavioural science team at Bupa. Since joining Zinc in 2017, she has helped to shape over 40 new mission-driven start-ups. Through an honorary role at UCL, she continues to be involved in a range of research and teaching - mainly centred around health behaviour change, safe and sustainable transport, and digital health. Dr. Carey has a wealth of knowledge about the differences between behavioral science academia and applied research, and is eager to share her experiences and ideas about how to bridge the two worlds. In today’s episode, she discusses these differences, as well as how behavioral science shows up in the world of entrepreneurship, and the need for certain elements of research culture - including public perception - to evolve. Some specific topics discussed include: The differences of applying and generating behavioral science in the academic versus startup worlds How these two worlds, particularly research and entrepreneurship, are bridged in practice How behavioral science projects and ventures are prioritized The risks of entrepreneurship, and the privilege required to take those risks Current public misconceptions regarding science and research, and how these misconceptions are shaped by a lack of public access and information The changing face of entrepreneurship, and the new potential garnered by including more diversity The trade-off between statistics and anecdotal evidence, and the motivating power of stories

Today we are chatting about a topic that many have struggled with both male and female, young and old. Body Image! There are four aspects of body image:The way you see yourself (Perceptual) The way you feel about the way you look (Affective) The thoughts and beliefs you feel about your body (Cognitive) The things you do in relation to the way you look (Behavioural)  Research conducted in the U.S showed that around 25% of male children/adolescents were concerned about their muscularity and leanness, by expressing a greater desire for toned and defined musclesResearch has shown that around 50% of young 13-year-old American girls reported being unhappy with their bodies. This number grew to nearly 80% by the time girls reached 17 years of ageNearly 80% of young teenage girls report fears of becoming fatWe have some special guests joining us for this discussion.

The Covid-19 crisis has had a significant impact on consumer behaviour but what will this mean longer term? In this episode I am joined by Claire O'Rourke, Research Lead at Dentsu Consult in Dublin to examine how behavioural research can help businesses and leaders understand key market trends and, as a consequence, better connect with their clients and customers. Claire O'Rourke is an experienced dual researcher with qualitative and quantitative research experience and a background in psychology. She has worked with a range of public and private sector clients and always seeks to explore the motivations and triggers, to look at predicting rather than just describing behaviour. Claire was previously an Associate Director in Amárach Research and is a published researcher with peer-reviewed publications in numerous academic journals.

Claudia Hammond on the longest known stay for a Briton with COVID-19 in intensive care. A month ago Respiratory Physiotherapist Gemma Bartlett at University Hospital Southampton highlighted the case to Inside Health. At that stage the patient was at day 28: now Erika Wright catches up with Gemma again for a good news update on the patient who is at a staggering 58 days on a ventilator and has been speaking for 3 weeks. There are many unknowns about COVID-19 but one aspect that is not disputed is how the virus has laid bare pre-existing health inequalities. It does not effect us all in the same way and those with underlying health conditions such as heart disease, obesity and diabetes are at a higher risk of poorer outcomes if they get the virus. Linda Bauld from Edinburgh University and Chair in Behavioural Research at Cancer Research UK says this is the time to reset the health inequalities clock. And Laura Bartley, who began having severe symptoms of agoraphobia five years ago, explains her experience of lockdown. Plus resident sceptic GP Margaret McCartney explains her concerns about the current Covid-19 testing strategy.

As the COVID-19 death-o-meter gradually lurches higher with an ever increasing death count, reaching allegedly unprecedented levels, the developed world is in a state of near-complete lockdown, with citizens under what amounts to be house arrest, living in fear of being the cause of someone else's death by slow COVID suffocation. The messaging from governments, the WHO and the mainstream media are consistent and clear: citizens must given up their freedoms in unprecedented ways to fight an invisible omnipresent enemy that threatens to kill the weak and frail among us; if you don't comply, you are an unethical, selfish enemy of humanity. You must conform, or else. In this episode we deconstruct the messaging surrounding COVID-19 and bring clear, rigorous scientific thinking in the midst of this crazy COVID chaos. We reveal how public messaging is scientifically engineered, how health authorities are using fear, extreme computer model projections, the presentation of speculation as fact, and claims of scientific consensus to manipulate your behavior and worldview.

My guest today is Robert Epstein, who is a senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioural Research and Technology in California. He is the author of 15 books, and the former editor-in-chief of Psychology Today. His books include Teen 2.0: Saving our children and families from the torment of adolescence and Parsing the Turing Test: Philosophical and methodological issues in the quest for the thinking computer. He's going to talk to us today about why the brain is not a computer and how the computer metaphor is not only incorrect but unhelpful.
