Podcasts about biological psychology

Whenever a client comes into our therapy room or whenever you meet a psychologist, they have certain privileges and disadvantages that you don't have. Also, you'll both have different life experiences, perspectives and focuses that you will share and you will differ in. This is because every one of us is wonderfully unique with our own thoughts, feelings and lived experiences. Yet as aspiring and qualified psychologists, we need to acknowledge that we have certain social graces or privileges that our clients don't have and vice versa. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you'll going to learn what are social graces, what are some types of social graces and how social graces can impact the therapy process. If you enjoy learning about psychotherapy, clinical psychology and privilege then this will be a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about research, community and therapeutic echoes within kink, how gossip is more appealing to anxiety, and is panic buying really panicked?

I've always found it is interesting and I like how research is starting to recognise that infants can be naturally moral. And yet this challenges a lot of traditional theories that have a lot of research support. Resulting in a rather large paradox for researchers. In this developmental psychology episode, you'll learn are infants moral by learning about a range of social and developmental factors that help to make infants moral (and immoral too). If you like learning about morality, prosocial behaviour and child psychology then you'll enjoy today's episode.In the psychology news section, what are the five new rules for first-impressions, why kids are so gross and what is the Big Brother Effect.

In biological psychology, there is one of my favourite topics in psychology. It might not be related to clinical psychology, mental health or even forensic psychology, but I love it anyway. Psychophysics is a fascinating area of psychology that has always grabbed my attention and made me want to understand more about how a physical stimulus leads to a psychological experience. For example, how does physical stimuli of chocolate create a chocolate taste in our minds, and how does chocolate create the psychological experience of pleasure. These are some of the questions that psychophysics aims to answer. In this biological psychology podcast episode, you'll learn what is psychophysics, what does psychophysics cover and what might the future of psychophysics be. If you enjoy learning about physiological psychology, biopsychology and how our physical environment impacts our psychological processes then this will be a brilliant episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how recalling old parties might lead to more moderate drinking, how a new government report advises a mental health approach over counter-terrorism for incels, and how the framing effect impacts therapy.

Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes. As we saw in How Can Therapists and Parents Support Transgender Teenagers? There are high rates of suicide, self-harm and depression in transgender youth. One of the ways to decrease these awful mental health outcomes is medical transitioning, where transgender youth transition from the gender they were assigned at birth to their affirmed gender by developing the characterised physical features of their affirmed gender. An effective way of medical transitioning is by Hormone Replacement Therapy because masculine hormones can make fat move away from the hips and thighs and deepen the voice. Whereas feminine hormones can make body fat move towards the hips and thighs and lead to the development of breasts. However, Hormone Replacement Therapy focuses on physical benefits for transgender youth, and yet this is a psychology podcast and I am a firm believer in the biopsychosocial model. Therefore, in this biological psychology podcast episode, we're going to be investigating the psychological benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy on transgender youth. This is going to be a lot of fun. If you enjoy learning about how hormones affect our behaviour, mental health and self-image, then you'll love today's episode. LISTEN NOW!

In this special episode of season 3, Dr. U. Grant Baldwin, Jr., DBH, Director of the Doctor of Behavioral Health program at Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies, reflects on the last decade, discussing how CGI has addressed the unmet educational needs in behavioral health and the impact this has had on transforming healthcare outcomes. Our special guests look to the future exciting plans for the next 10 years as CGI continues to lead the way in training integrated care professionals. Special Guests: Dr. Janet Cummings, Psy. D., is the daughter of Drs. Nicholas and Dorothy Cummings, an internationally-recognized psychologist and a clinical social worker. Determined not to be a mental health professional, she earned a Bachelor's Degree in Pre-med (with a minor in Genetics/Molecular Biology) and Linguistics (with a Classical Greek minor). She went on to earn a Master's Degree in Linguistics, with a Psycholinguistics emphasis, before deciding to earn a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the School of Professional Psychology at Wright State University, which she completed in 1992. During her Bachelor's and Master's studies, Janet owned and operated a sewing business and taught English as a Second Language.While at the School of Professional Psychology, Janet participated in an experimental program aimed at preparing students for the possibility of prescription privileges for psychologists. In this experimental program, she took the same Pharmacology and Psychopharmacology classes as students in Wright State University's medical school. Because of her Pre-med background, she excelled in her Pharmacology studies, as well as in Biological Psychology and Neuranatomy/Neurology. Janet completed her internship and post-doctoral residency at Arizona Biodyne, and remained as a staff psychologist there for several years. With supervision from some top Biodyne psychotherapists, she became a master psychotherapist and expert in the Biodyne Model. She has continued to utilize the Biodyne Model exclusively in her private practice and other work settings. In 2010, Janet moved from Scottsdale, Arizona to Reno, Nevada in order to be close to the headquarters of The Nicholas & Dorothy Cummings Foundation, which she has served as its President since its inception in 1995. Under Janet's direction, The Nicholas & Dorothy Cummings Foundation has sponsored many projects aimed at furthering the integration of behavioral health into primary care medicine, including The Cummings Psyche Award (the premier scientific award in the mental health field, with a $50,000 prize) and the launching of the first Doctor of Behavioral Health (DBH) Program at Arizona State University. Dr. Cara English, DBH is the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Academic Officer of Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies (CGI) and Founder of Terra's Tribe, a maternal mental health advocacy organization in Phoenix, Arizona. Dr. English spearheaded a perinatal behavioral health integration project at Willow Birth Center from 2016 to 2020 that received international acclaim through the publication of outcomes in the International Journal of Integrated Care. Dr. English served as Vice-President of the Postpartum Support International – Arizona Chapter Founding Board of Directors and co-chaired the Education and Legislative Advocacy Committees. She currently serves on the Maternal Mortality Review Program and the Maternal Health Taskforce for the State of Arizona. She served as one of three Arizonan 2020 Mom Nonprofit Policy Fellows in 2021. For her work to establish Cummings Graduate Institute for Behavioral Health Studies, Cara was awarded the Psyche Award from the Nicholas & Dorothy Cummings Foundation in 2018 and is more recently the recipient of the 2022 Sierra Tucson Compassion Recognition for her work to improve perinatal mental health integration in Arizona. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/disruptors-at-work/support

“Traumatic experiences are here to stay, and we shouldn't view them as a prison.” Professor of Neuroscience Rachel Yehuda on how psychedelics may help liberate us from our post-traumatic stress. In this compelling episode, Rachel Yehuda, a renowned expert in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma effects, challenges the common perceptions surrounding trauma exposure. She explores the distinction between stress and trauma, emphasizing the transformative power of traumatic experiences. Yehuda delves into the physiological and epigenetic changes triggered by trauma, shedding light on the complexities of memory and response. For myriad reasons, trauma is becoming a bigger part of everyday life in our society. Rachel Yehuda, who studies PTSD and the psychological effects of trauma, believes while many of us have become more educated on how traumatic events affect our mental health, we also might be inadvertently convincing ourselves that suffering from mental illness after trauma is inevitable. Yehuda believes trauma is survivable with the right tools and treatments. She is particularly interested in the potential of psychedelics, like MDMA, to facilitate post-traumatic growth and healing. She discusses potential of psychedelics in assisting psychotherapy, allowing individuals to delve deep into their trauma while remaining coherent. She also emphasizes that the success of these therapies depends on the setting, intention, and therapist's expertise.

We're rounding off our little mini-series on “theory of mind” in autism research with episode 5: “New Paradigms, New Values.”You can find a (not Substack-generated) transcript of the episode, as well as a music-free remix, here.We will be on hiatus over the holidays, while we cook up some more episodes about the relationship between empathy and autism. But in the meantime, I'll continue to post here occasionally to let you all know about other fascinating audio projects that tackle issues related to autism and disability.“New Paradigms, New Values”In the last several episodes, we've explored the bizarre history of autism research focusing on “theory of mind deficits.” So at this point, you're probably wondering: “where do we go from here?”We don't have all the answers, but in this episode, Travis and Joe—from the previous episode—describe some fascinating new avenues for autism research, which promise to help us understand autistic perspectival differences without invoking so-called “theory of mind deficits.” Plus, Travis compares the two most common paradigms in autism research (the “pathology paradigm,” and the “neurodiversity paradigm”), and offers some advice for folks who want to start reading up on the philosophy of autism.Topics Discussed* A potential problem with our critique of “theory of mind deficit” research: some autistic people find the theory of mind deficit view of autism helpful for making sense of challenging experiences. (00:29)* A reminder about the problems associated with the “theory of mind deficit” view of autism; in particular, the view dehumanizes autistic people. (02:41)* Problems with Barnbaum's influential book The Ethics of Autism (2008), which assumes the theory of mind deficit view of autism. (04:05)* But again, some autistic people find the “theory of mind deficit” view of autism helpful. (05:54)* So, we need good alternatives for understanding and talking about autistic social differences. (07:41)* The bad news: there's no single unifying “theory of autism” that can simply replace the “theory of mind deficit” view. (08:25)* The good news: there are several alternative research programs that promise to help us better understand autistic people's experiences with perspective-taking. (09:07)* A sociological alternative: the double empathy problem. (10:16)* A psychological alternative: monotropism. (12:20)* Monotropism isn't just “an autistic thing.” (15:41)* Why the double empathy problem and monotropism could both be true (they're not in competition with each other). (17:06)* A physiological alternative: differences in interoception. (19:04) * What all of these alternative theories have in common: they don't have to frame autism in terms of deficits. This focus reflects a shift in value assumptions in autism research. (21:13)* Science can't avoid making some value-laden assumptions. Feminist philosophers of science have been talking about this issue for decades. (22:12)* An example of a value assumption in science and medicine: “classic” heart attack symptoms. (25:02)* Travis contrasts the “pathology paradigm” in autism research with the “neurodiversity paradigm” in autism research. (25:51)* Travis gives an example of how the pathology paradigm can distort autism researchers' interpretation of data. (29:12)* We shouldn't merely “study autistic differences”; we need to study autistic differences with the ultimate goal of improving autistic people's well-being, all while paying close attention to what autistic people say they need. (With a quick call-back to Chloe Farahar.) (33:07)* Travis explains how philosophy can contribute to autism research. (36:21)* But philosophers need to be careful! Travis has advice. (37:50)* Look-ahead to our next topic: empathy and autism.

Did you know that athletes are not just better at regulating their physical bodies, but that they are also experts at regulating brain activity? In this breather show, I discuss a study from the Journal of Biological Psychology that uncovered differences in brain structure between athletes and non-athletes and share the study's findings. You will hear about how regular exercise improves cognitive control and enhanced cognitive processes (like inhibition, attention, and concentration) are believed to help regular exercises self-regulate their physical activity, the structural differences the study found among the athletes brains, and more!   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad's Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now Available in Cocoa Bean)   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Michael Oliver, a highly-qualified expert in Biological Psychology. After completing his Ph.D. at the University of Tennessee in 2018, Dr. Oliver embarked on a fascinating research journey at The University of Tennessee Medical Center. His focus was to explore the potential use of Event-Related Potentials (ERPs), an EEG technique, as a functional biomarker for early detection and disease progression in neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease. Join us and stay tuned for an insightful and thought-provoking episode, where Dr. Oliver not only discusses his groundbreaking work but also takes a moment to unwind and explore his experiences outside of the laboratory. Don't miss this opportunity to gain a unique perspective on cutting-edge research in the field of cognitive neurophysiology with Dr. Michael Oliver.

For decades, doctors have used the Body Mass Index (BMI) to determine if someone is at a healthy weight. This is one of the factors used in clinical psychology to diagnose eating disorders and any people involved in clinical work uses the BMI from time to time. Yet the BMI's usefulness has been criticised and extensively questioned in recent years because of its failures. Therefore, in this health psychology podcast episode, we focus on why doctors are now moving away from BMI and what could be used in the future. If you enjoy health psychology, clinical psychology and biological psychology, you're going to love today's episode. In the psychology news section, you'll look at why bodily sensations seem clearer in blind people, why "heroisation" of US military veterans funnels them towards lower paying jobs, and is it better to be happier now or later.

In this episode, we focus on Understanding Sexual Serial Killing. We start by defining sexual serial killing, and get into what motivates it. We talk about the psychological traits, the social context, and sociohistorical context of sexual serial killing. We discuss the best model to explain it, biological factors, working models and scripts during child development, what triggers sexual arousal, paraphilias, and addiction. We also discuss if there is a copycat effect in this type of crime. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, OLAF ALEX, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, JOHN CONNORS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, SIMON COLUMBUS, PHIL KAVANAGH, MIKKEL STORMYR, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, ADANER USMANI, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, NICK GOLDEN, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, DANIEL FRIEDMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, CHARLES MOREY, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Perception Podcast with me your host Caroline Partridge. Today I talk to Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Greenwich, Dr Robert Willson. In this illuminating conversation, we explore the origins of and misconceptions around Evolutionary Psychology. We look at the interaction between genetics and experience, especially with regard to human sexual behaviour and gender identity. Please join me as we look at life through a different lens. KEY TAKEAWAYS Evolutionary psychology examines cognition and behaviour from a modern evolutionary perspective. Some argue that human behaviour has to be understood within the context of human evolution. Evolution impacts how we behave, but things like the fight or flight system are now largely redundant. Genetics and experience both have an impact, e.g., intelligence is shaped by both. What drives us is complex. evolution that plays a role, but other things do too e.g. social and cultural factors. For humans, sexual behaviour is not only about fertility. Gender is not based solely on genetics it is also impacted by social factors and some think that developmental events in the womb, also play a role. Gender can be influenced by socio-cultural factors. Society still treats boys and girls differently, despite trying not to. There is far more overlap between genders and racial groups than differences. Looking at average differences e.g. men are stronger and navigate better than women is misleading. It does not mean all men are like that, or that all women are always weaker than all men or worse navigators. We all share a lot of genetic material with others. It is the small amount of material we do not have in common with others that evolution works with. BEST MOMENTS ‘We use sexual behaviour as a way of bonding with people.' ‘Maybe our brains aren't actually that fit for purpose anymore.' ‘Evolutionary psychology basically argues that the human mind and human behaviour have also been shaped by evolution.' ‘Evolution can help us understand some things. But societal and cultural factors also are important.' ‘There's always an interaction between our genetic makeup, and our life experiences.' ‘Despite our best efforts, we treat infants that we perceive as male differently than we do, infants that we perceive as female.' ‘Evolution might have primed us to do these things, but there´s always a choice.'

He joined the University in February 1998, having completed a 4-year Wellcome Trust Fellowship at the University of St. Andrews. Before that, he had been an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow within the Department of Zoology at Oxford University, under the supervision of Prof.Sir John Krebs.  Originally from Canada, Robert completed his Ph.D. at the University of British Columbia under the supervision of Prof. Don Wilkie, graduating in 1992, before he relocated to the UK. Robert's original training was in Animal Cognition, doing behavioural research into learning and memory in non-human species, predominantly with a focus on spatial memory in pigeons and food-storing birds.  Although Rob retains an interest in these areas, his research now focuses on a variety of issues across Evolutionary Psychology, Sport Psychology, and Social Psychology. He teaches various aspects of Biological Psychology and has a particular interest in Evolutionary Psychology and how an evolutionary perspective might be able to help understand some aspects of human behaviour.

Dr. John Kline is a psychologist and recording artist in Mobile, AL. He began playing music during his childhood in Montana and subsequently toured the USA and Canada in a variety of bands during his adolescence and early adult life. He studied music and psychology during college, earned a M.A. in Biological Psychology from The University of Nebraska at Omaha in 1991, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Arizona in 1996. After being transplanted to Mobile AL in a series of improbable and unanticipated events during more than a decade as an academic gypsy, John began to construct the guiTARDIS, which is a 40 track digital audio recording studio in Mobile AL. It is his sanctuary where nerves can de-jangle and worries can be left outside. Improvisational / compositional music therapy soothes. It may also help combat anxiety and depression. Improvisational / compositional music therapy also seems to result in satisfying creative output.

Dr. Kline's practice provides a compassionate, relaxed, and informal, environment where people in emotional pain can focus on getting better without fear of judgment. With experience and expertise spanning cognitive, behavioral, emotional, neurophysiological, and sociocultural levels of analysis, he provides an integrative, individualized, non-pharmacological approach to treating mental illness. If you are already taking medication, psychotherapy can help make it more effective. He believes that a diagnosis can help inform treatment, but does not define you. Diagnostic categories often don't entirely fit a given individual, so treatment needs to reflect individual goals and needs. "I think it fair to say that emotion and emotion regulation are at the heart of my practice. They are fundamentally linked to many problems, including PTSD, depression, substance abuse, mood disorders, and anxiety disorders. I advocate a biopsychosocial approach to mental health maintenance." Broadly knowledgable, having studied and worked in a variety of academic, research, medical, and private practice facilities around the country.

Are we born with a heterosexual desire, or do we simply end up with it? Is addiction to porn real? How may fear turn into sexual arousal? Why do men like to send d*ck pics? These are some of the topics Frederick Toates and I discussed in this podcast episode. Frederick Toates is an Emeritus Professor of Biological Psychology at The Open University in England and Vice-President of the Open University Psychology Society. He is well known for his work on sexual desire, which he published in a book: How Sexual Desire Works: The Enigmatic Urge - a great read, dense in information and research findings from fields like psychology and neuroscience. Recently he explored why some people engage in serial killings for sexual pleasure, and in 2022 he published a book on this topic: Understanding Sexual Serial Killing. Tune in for this in-depth, highly educative conversation and let us know your thoughts. Support the showJoin RedCheeks Academy to learn about ethical production of intimate scenes.

Drugs have a wide range of effects on behaviour, but what if we could combine medication with psychotherapy to more therapy more effective? In this fascinating clinical psychology podcast episode, we explore this interesting question by examining the effects of ketamine on psychotherapy and how it could help our clients. If you enjoy psychopharmacology and clinical psychology then you're in for a treat! In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how humans intuitively know the meaning behind a touch to the arm, the dangers in how the media portray dangerous heatwaves, and how adversity could lead to more compassion for others.

In this episode, Nicole Chenard, MS, RD, LDN explores the often ignored link between inflammation and depression. The COVID-19 pandemic uniquely impacted our ability to work, gather, and communicate, and subsequently heightened feelings of fear, anxiety, and loneliness. While many medical professionals have turned to prescribing anti-depressants to treat these symptoms, Nicole dives into reasons why this may not be an effective first approach for everyone. Fear, stress, and anxiety can stimulate an inflammatory response in the body, and the solution may not lie in pharmaceutical prescriptions, but in activities we can plan to do every day, like eating an anti-inflammatory diet and planning consistent physical activity, to help alter our body's pH and our nervous systems. Tune in this week to learn how to take steps to notice and decrease inflammation in YOUR body today.

In psychology, people rarely think our biology, much less than processes at the cellular level, can impact our behaviour, quality of life and how long we live for. In this fascinating biological psychology episode, you look at the amazing process autophagy and why it is so critical to neurogenerative diseases and perhaps living longer. In the personal update, you get to listen to an interesting rambling reflection about personal and psychology takeaways from Netflix's Heartstopper, Actor Joe Locke and me applying to become a voluntary vaccinator this winter. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how expressions of shame affect the whole social group, how witnessing awe-inspiring events could make us more prosocial and how online search algorithms reflect and reinforce gender biases.

Join us on Wednesday, August 17 @ 12pm EST for an enlightening conversation with Dr. Bruno Sauce as he shares his research on the impact of digital media on children's intelligence. Bruno is an Assistant Professor of Biological Psychology at the Vrije University in Amsterdam. He has worked on multiple different topics, including brain plasticity, cognitive interventions, and childhood development. Right now, his research focuses on the gene-environment interplay of cognitive abilities. He wants to know the impact of certain experiences on the way we think and learn, and how much this depends on our different genetic backgrounds. The experiences of growing up in wealth/poverty, playing video games, and going to primary school are all factors that he is currently studying. Bruno is originally from Brazil, where he earned a bachelor's in Biology and master's in Genetics and Evolution at the Universidade Federal de São Carlos. He later moved to the US and earned a master's in Psychology and a Ph.D in Neuroscience at Rutgers University, and then was a postdoc researcher in Sweden at Karolinska Institute.

If you're planning for retirement, longevity is on your mind. From a financial perspective, you're looking to ensure that your money will last. No one precisely knows their life expectancy, but research is indicating that some choices we make can influence our longevity - and the quality of life in those years. Heathy eating and exercising are two obvious examples. And a new study highlights another dimension associated with longer longevity - your psychological well-being. The study found people with high levels of psychological well-being lived between 5 and 8 years longer. Our guest shares with us the findings of that study and practical steps you can take to increase your psychological well-being. Dr, Jennifer Boylan joins us from Colorado. __________________________ Bio Jennifer Morozink Boylan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Health and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Colorado Denver. Her research focuses on health disparities, psychological factors that influence physical health, and biological mechanisms that link the social environment to disease processes. As a health psychologist, her research addresses the ways in which psychological factors engender resilience and protect against health risks associated with disadvantaged social status. This work utilizes multiple methodologies, including national longitudinal survey data, biological assessments of cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, and laboratory assessments of emotion regulation and physiological reactivity and recovery to stress. Jennifer earned her Ph.D. and M.S. at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Biological Psychology, and a B.A. in Psychology at Illinois Wesleyan University. __________________________ For More on Dr. Jennifer Boylan Four Keys to Well-Being That May Help You Live Longer Psychological well-being, education, and mortality. _________________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like Breaking the Age Code – Dr. Becca Levy Retire Happy – Dr. Catherine Sanderson Successful Aging – Daniel Levitin The Mind-Body Connection and The Rabbit Effect – Kelli Harding __________________________ Wise Quotes On Well-Being & Longevity  "In our study, we compared these effects of psychological well-being with two other factors. One was education. The survival benefits of psychological well-being were comparable differences in life expectancy, between someone who had a college degree compared to someone who had less than a high school education. Now the survival benefits of high psychological well-being were not quite as big as the differences in life expectancy between someone who has never smoked versus a current smoker. That difference is about 10 years, but our study was one of the first to report these associations between psychological well-being and life expectancy, which I think is really helpful for conveying just how important psychological well-being can be for how long we live." On How to Increase Your Psychological Well-Being "There are a lot of ways, backed by scientific research, to increase your psychological well-being. These can include things like connecting with other people and then nurturing high quality social relationships, writing about your goals in life, being authentic with your core values, volunteering and engaging with your community. You want to seek out positive experiences, even small ones in daily life and try to savor those. And over time, all of those experiences can increase your psychological well-being. I think it's also important to note that some activities that increase our psychological well-being might not always feel good or enjoyable in the short term. It takes a lot of work and effort to strive to achieve your goals, to make the most of your talents and to work to make the world a better place. But those activities also increase your psychological well-being and can be good for your physical health and how long you live.

Chelsea and I continue and conclude our discussion of the tragic mass school shooting at the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. As politicians clamor for more gun control, we look at Salvador Ramos' family situation. Were warning signs ignored that led to this attack? Could Ramos' poor family situation have been at the root of his problems? We believe the evidence shows that Biblical parenthood is the true solution for preventing mass shootings.

Podcast guest Amishi Jha, Ph.D., a neuroscientist and professor of psychology at the University of Miami, researches how people pay attention. She co-founded the Contemplative Neuroscience for the Mindfulness Research and Practice Initiative at the University of Miami and serves as its director. For more than 25 years, she's researched the science of attention through intensive work with the U.S. Military, first responders, medical professionals, business leaders, and elite sports teams.She's found that attention Is both your superpower and your kryptonite. As a superpower, attention allows you to time-travel in your mind (future and past), highlights what's important, helps you problem solve, and shuts out distractions, she explains in her book, “Peak Mind: Find Your Focus, Own your Attention, Invest 12 Minutes a Day.” When attention is compromised, it's your kryptonite because it impacts your cognitive function, social engagement, and emotional balance, she points out. The three main forces that degrade attention include, 1) the amount of stress you're under (and how you're managing it); 2) being in a crappy mood; and 3) threats real or imagined.And when your attention gets fractured, you often default to tactics that fail to pull it back together. Amishi's got great insights in her book that allow you to understand why this happening. When you know what's going on, it's easier to find your focus.It's absolutely possible to change your brain to become more attentive, present, and productive through mindful techniques and daily focusing practices. Amishi's research shows that mindfulness gives you a sense of control over your mind and allows you to stop negative thinking before it hijacks your brain and body.The type of mindfulness practice you choose isn't as important as how consistently you actually do it. The minimum effective dose equals 12 minutes a day, five days a week.Listen on to a conversation that gives you practical tips on how to re-capture your attention, train your brain and perform at your peak.More about Amishi Jha, Ph.D.: Amishi earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Psychology then went on to earn a Ph.D. in Psychology (Cognitive Neuroscience) from the University of California–Davis. She completed post-doctoral training at the Brain Imaging and Analysis Center at Duke University in functional neuroimaging.

Hal Herzog is a professor of psychology at Western Carolina University, whose research entails the complex psychology of human-animal interactions for over three decades. These studies have been published in many journals, including Science, Animal Behavior and The American Psychologist to name a few. He also is the author of ‘Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat' and writes the blog Animals and Us on Psychology Today. Hal shares with us his love of animals from childhood, specifically reptiles. He quotes collecting reptiles during high school such as the boa constrictor, rat snakes, turtles etc. Hal then goes on to reference how his interest in human-animal interactions formed through his neighbours. They invited Hal to view a cockfighting match, which Hal initially refused. Eventually, Hal agreed due to his rising interest in how viewers perceive the roosters. This interest changed his PhD from snake personality differences to analysing the psychology of humans involved in cockfighting. Following the completion of his PhD, Hal flew to Vancouver, Canada to attend an international theology conference. Whilst at the airport Hal read ‘Animal Liberation' by Peter Singer. Hal describes initially dismissing Peter's perception of animal rights but continued to read due to Peter's arguments being good. Originally, Hal perceived that Peter did not incorporate psychology, believing that logical arguments would not affect humans' treatment of animals. Now, Hal admits the whole book was effective at pulling the heartstrings. Hal then discussed his initial PhD study, working at Gordon Burghardt's laboratory at the University of Tennessee. The aim was to develop a personality test for baby snakes. This test involved waving his hand in front of the snake to count how many times the snake struck within two minutes. The study demonstrated that siblings from the same litter behaved similarly, with recently fed snakes acting more aggressively as being fully limited their capacity to escape. Hal defines biological psychology as how biology and evolution impact human behaviour. Hal highlights this term brings about questions regarding what it means to be human. He then goes on to discuss the controversial topic of human attachment to their pets. On one side, biophilia, whereby humans have an innate trait to love all animals. Hal disagrees with this but instead believes animal attachment relates to cultural learning. He noted that the term pet is westernised, referencing a study by Peter Gray which examines 60 human cultures. This study concluded that only five cultures played with their pets. The other cultures used them for work. Hal then explained that in nature, pet-keeping is limited, referencing one occasion where a chimpanzee plays with a bush baby, usually resulting in killing it. Consequently, Hal describes pet-keeping as the thing that separates us from other species. Hal then discusses the impact of pets on human health. Historically, Erica Friedman in the 1980s concluded that pets increase their owner survival rate following a heart attack by four times more than those who do not own a pet. However, as Hal wrote his book, he discovered that there was an equal amount of papers stating that pets have a negative impact, no impact and a positive impact on the physical and mental health of their owners. This means no solid conclusion can be derived. In addition, Hal noted that research shows gender differences concerning human-animal interactions are limited. With the data he had, Hal developed an animal attitude scale. He highlighted on extreme ends in America, that females are more likely to be animal activists (people who alter their life to help animals e.g., diet, wardrobe etc.), whereas, males are more likely to be hunters. Hal then discusses the cultural impact of animal care, giving the veterinary profession as an example. Stating how 30 years ago, this career was considered a male role, with current roles now being 60% women. Hal then discusses behavioural alterations of animal activists in regards to animal care and their philosophical orientation. Hal then reviews how the animal welfare act is incorporated differently globally in terms of animal-based research. Hal considers history important, so shares with us the German Nazi parties progressive animal rights, restricting their use in research. On the other hand, the United States animal care and use committee covers all animals except rats, mice and birds. This means that the majority of animals used in research are not protected. Hal then elaborates on the animal popularity trends, giving dog breeds as an example. Utilising the 60 million dogs registered with the American Kennel Club from 1926, it was determined that cultural fashion trends greatly affects dog breed popularity as people unconsciously follow trends. Hal referenced the Dalmatians popularity boom following Disney's 101 Dalmations as an example. Hal progresses to discuss why some animals humans seem to care more about compared to others, referring frequently to a paper by Burghardt and Herzog Jr; Beyond Conspecifics: Is Brer Rabbit Our Brother? Here he observes how "cuteness" is a key factor in species with conservation programmes, although he noted this changes with cultural perceptions. For example, how the killer whale changed to an orca. Hal and Sabrina then discuss the recently published 2nd edition of his book; Some we love, some we hate, and some we eat. He wrote the book to be easily understood for the everyday person that aimed to get the public to question what they knew about animals. Hal was surprised by the book's popularity and incorporation into a lot of education courses. Hal concludes by sharing with us his free blog on Psychology Today that consists of over 150 blogs.

I AM AWARE I DO NOT SPEAK PERFECTLY however this is meant for my own revision!

Wenn man in einem Kriminalfall einen Augenzeugen hat, dann scheint das die große Rettung zu sein - man hat da ja jemanden, der das ganze mit eigenen Augen gesehen hat. Aber wie zuverlässig sind die Erinnerungen von Augenzeugen?

Claudia Hammond explores our experience of touch hunger, and asks if we have enough touch in our lives. Covid-19 and social distancing have changed how most people feel about touch but even before the pandemic there was a concern about the decrease of touch in society. Claudia and Professor Michael Bannissy of Goldsmiths, University of London, discuss the results of the BBC Touch Test, an online questionnaire that was completed by around 40 000 people from 112 countries. Professor Tiffany Field, Director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine, and Merle Fairhurst, Professor of Biological Psychology at Bundeswehr University Munich, reveal their findings about the impact of touch hunger and how to overcome it. John grew up during the Second World War and endured a lack of touch in his childhood. He relates how in adult life he overcame this absence of touch and why touch remains so important to him. And left isolating in London during lock down, flatmates B and Z came up with a plan to stay healthy with a 6 o’clock hug. Hugging releases a mix of anti-stress chemicals that can lower the blood pressure, decrease anxiety and help sleep.

In today's episode, I introduce us to the very interesting subfield of biological psychology and we start with one of my favourite topics: neuroplasticity. So please join me in today's episode as we explore this interesting topic in my usual enjoyable and easy to understand way. In psychology news, I tell you about an unusual project but one that I believe in.

The Zero Gravity Band is an immersive installation of light and sound 360º that tries to induce sensations of zero gravity and an exhibition of prototypes and instruments designed to create arts and music in conditions of zero gravity and smart space suits. The project is produced by Fundació Quo Artis, a non-profit organisation that seeks connections between art, science and technology through the joint work of professionals in these fields. Quo Artis aims to add value to society and culture by incentivising the creation of innovative interdisciplinary projects. The Zero Gravity Band project aims to find answers to how would art, and it is perception change when we were not restricted to the physical and gravitational laws and create a dialogue on the subject between researchers in such varying disciplines as art, science, technology and philosophy. It was devised by the artist and researcher Dr Albert Barqué-Duran and musician, composer, sound engineer and music producer Marc Marzenit with the scientific participation of Albert Barqué-Duran himself and Dr Elisa R. Ferrè, director of the VeME Lab. Dr Albert Barqué-Duran is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Cognitive Science at City, University of London, and a contemporary artist. His research focuses on new theoretical approaches to decision-making and cognitive systems. Musician, composer, music producer and sound engineer Marc Marzenit acquired his first synthesiser at age 14, and a year later he created his first label, Paradigma Musik. Marc Marzenit’s approach to music consists of combining acoustic, analogue and digital instruments in the same show. A great example is his project Suite on the Clouds, a visual 3D show with eight violinists, a harp, symphonic percussion, several synthesisers and a grand piano. Dr Elisa R. Ferrè is Director of the Vestibular Multisensory Embodiment Lab and lecturer in Biological Psychology in the Department of Psychology at the Royal Holloway University (London). Her research focuses on how the brain calculates gravity, but also how gravity shapes human behaviour and how gravity influences the aesthetic experience. We had the chance to experience The Zero Gravity Band and chat with Dr Albert Barqué-Durán and Marc Marzenit and this what they told us. Enjoy it as we did!

Marcus Munafo, Professor of Biological Psychology at the University of Bristol is a world leading researcher into genetics and cognitive influences on addictive behaviour. He heads up the Tobacco and Alcohol Research Group, which is part of the MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit in Bristol. In this podcast, Marcus talks broadly about why genetics is so important for people with mental illness. He presents different kinds of genetics research including the genome-wide association studies that have made such significant breakthroughs in recent years, and the exciting technique called Mendelian randomisation, which helps us to find causal associations in observational data.

In this edition we discuss Bio Psychology and Casey’s study where we look at background, method, results and evaluation. The podcast supports the teaching of OCR’s Psychology A Level.

Episode 2 introduces the field of biological psychology. It describes the link between psychology and our biological systems (e.g. the central nervous system, brain, and endocrine glands).

There are approximately 30 parables in the Scriptures, 19 of which either speak directly of money or are told in an economic context. Jesus spoke more about money and generosity than any other subject besides the Kingdom of God. S.E. Lea and P. Webley, in their research study The Biological Psychology of a Strong Incentive, state that “money is a tool, but money is also a drug.” Money lets us pay the bills, keep the lights on, stay fed, and get work done because money is a tool. But money also acts like a drug. Money makes us feel things we would not otherwise feel. It gives us a temporary escape from pain, and it can also give us a momentary illusion of wellbeing.
