What Is Self Affirmation Theory? Download the Selfpause Affirmation App Self-affirmation theory focuses on how we cope with threatening information and experiences. It was developed by Claude Steele in the late 1980s and has since become a well-known theory in the field of social psychology. In addition, it has been shown to affect brain activity and our health, and it can affect how others perceive us.

Claude Steele is one of the most influential social psychologists of all time. As a Stanford professor, he's best known for his groundbreaking research on how the threat of being stereotyped undermines our performance. Adam talks with Claude about why the mere possibility of being stereotyped affects us, how we can protect ourselves from the harmful effects, and what healthy self-affirmation looks like.

Eric chats with Claude Steele, Emeritus Lucie Stern Professor of Psychology at Stanford. He is world-renowned for his work on stereotype threat and its application to minority student academic performance. In 2010, he released his book, Whistling Vivaldi and Other Clues to How Stereotypes Affect Us, summarizing years of research on stereotype threat and the underperformance of minority students in higher education. He is elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences. He was Vice Chancellor and Provost at Berkeley and provost at Columbia and served as President of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology.In this episode, Eric and Claude chat about Claude's most recent thinking about stereotype threat, where people fear fulfilling stereotypes about their social groups. When and why does it matter? How can we create more inclusive and non-threatening environments, from work contexts to classrooms? What does it have to do with Carol Dweck's growth mindset? Claude proposes that trust is essential to reduce stereotype threat: when people trust they are not judged for their social groups, they perform better. Finally, Claude shares how his growing up on the South Side of Chicago still influences his thinking, how he circuitously stumbled into psychology – and what it was like having Ted Bundy as one of his students!WE NOW HAVE A SUBSTACK!

This episode features a conversation with Daren Graves, Associate Professor of Education and Social Work at Simmons University and Adjunct Lecturer of Education at Harvard Graduate School of Education. Daren's work centers on racial identity development among youth. His most recent work is Schooling for Critical Consciousness, which shows “how schools can help Black and Latinx youth resist the negative effects of racial injustice and challenge its root causes,” a circumstance that has some particular relevance to Daren's research focus on black boys. Daren and Jason talk about the core features of racial identity development from the research literature, the concept of critical consciousness - plus what it means and does not mean in learning settings - the adultification of black boys and their resulting disproportionate representation in disciplinary incidents, how to best train pre-service teachers for a societal and educational landscape that is changing rapidly with respect to the racial composition of school-aged children, the intersection of racial identity development and social and emotional skill development, and the role of hip hop in the education of youth of color.Additional Readings and ResourcesSimmons University.Harvard Graduate School of Education.Schooling for Critical Consciousness: Engaging Black and Latinx Youth in Analyzing, Navigating, and Challenging Racial Injustice, Scott Seider and Daren Graves, Harvard Education Press, 2020.American Educational Research Association Hip Hop Special Interest Group.Young, Gifted, and Black: Promoting High Achievement among African-American Students, Theresa Perry, Claude Steele and Asa Hilliard III, Beacon Press, 2003.Their Highest Potential: An African American School Community in the Segregated South, Vanessa Sidle Walker, University of North Carolina Press, 1996.Lessons in Adolescence Episode 9: Lessons with Dr. Lisa Harrison.Lessons in Adolescence Episode 2: Lessons with Laura Ross.Paolo Friere's "Banking Concept of Education" from Pedagogy of the Oppressed, Bloomsbury Academic, 1968.CASEL Social and Emotional Learning Framework.Dr. Graves will be giving a Youth-Nex Talk on Friday March 18th at 11 AM ET on "Schooling for Critical Consciousness: Tools to help cultivate Youth Resilience and Agency."

For this week's episode, we planned something special. Each year, the Stanford psychology department hosts Paths to Ph.D., a free, open-to-public information session on how to apply to Ph.D. programs and research positions in psychology. This year's event is scheduled on Saturday, October 16th from 10:00 am-5:00 pm and the application deadline is on September 17th. In this episode, we invited Lauren Borchers, a rising 4thyear Ph.D. student in the department, and Dr. Camilla Griffiths, a recent graduate of the department. They are two pivotal figures in the shaping of this event. We talked about what this event is about, how it came to be, what will happen in the future, as well as the joy and challenges of organizing and planning Paths to Ph.D. Paths to Ph.D. is an event initiated and organized by the diversity committee in the Psychology Department. The Diversity Committee consists of student members (Since 2020: Sai Auelua, Lauren Borchers, Akshay Jagadeesh, Sama Radwan, Andrea Sims, and Nicky Sullivan; New members: Anjie Cao, Leigh Chu, Nicole Corso, Emily Kubota, Catherine Thomas, and Jenny Yang) and faculty members (Kalanit Grill-Spector, Steven Roberts, Claude Steele, Greg Walton).To learn more about the event, visit this website: https://psychology.stanford.edu/diversity/paths-phd

Stereotypes are all around us, shaping how we see the world – and how the world sees us. On the surface, the stereotypes that other people hold shouldn’t affect the way we think or act. But our concerns about other people’s perceptions have a way of burrowing deep into our minds. This week, social psychologist Claude Steele explains the psychology of “stereotype threat.”

This week's conversation with Maryann Karinch got me thinking about a book I read recently, Whistling Vivaldi by Claude Steele. Steele talks about the stereotypes that affect all of us, both those being stereotyped and those who are stereotyping others. What are we missing when we make a snap judgment? What are the opportunities for connection that we can reap when we look past stereotypes to see someone more fully? In this episode, I recount the story that serves as the basis of the title of Steele's book, involving the college experience of NYT columnist Brent Staples. You can read Staples' account of his experience at https://www.ohlone.edu/sites/default/files/documents/imported/justwalkonbyblackmenandpublicspace.pdf.

Claude M. Steele is an American social psychologist, a Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, and author of Whistling Vivaldi and Other Clues to How Stereotypes Affect Us. In this episode of How Do You Do? Podcast, Ben asks Dr. Steele to break down his research on stereotype threat, share how he comes up with experiments, offer solutions for how individuals and organizations can combat the pressure that comes with the stereotypes we face, and more.

Listen to this Coaching Through Stories episode and learn how  Graef found her way to  authenticity  and how you can discover your own authentic path  and be your true self in the workplace.     NOTE: This podcast was recorded in January 2020, shortly after an attack on US forces in Kenya.

Katherine Graef’s personal opinions and are not those of the Department of Defense or any of its components.      Episode Highlights:    Graef’s current role as Logistics Director of Special Operations Command Africa has been the most challenging but the most reward role so far in her career    “It takes moral courage to look somebody in the eye and say, ‘Hey, you’re not meeting the standard.”   When leaders are faced with an employee who does not meet expectations, focus on the outcome you seek.   Reflect as a leader and ask yourself: 1. Are you providing the right instruction for your subordinates to be successful? 2. Are you as a leader giving an underperforming subordinate the tools needed to be successful? 3. Is your training or leadership style working for all of your subordinates?   Humans in general tend to gravitate toward problem-focused solutions to resolve issues rather than solution-focused. High performers approach problems with a solution-focused mindset.   Graef will test people if she feels integrity in compromised in someone and discusses how a lack of integrity is a deal breaker for her.   Leadership authenticity shows up in a leader’s ability to be consistent in the treatment of their superiors, peers, and subordinates. “You have to model and reward the behavior you seek.” A lack of consistency in leadership reduces credibility in the organization and the organization’s values.   A lack of alignment of authenticity creates stress, Graef discusses her journey of being fully authentic and how it empowered her to fully enjoy life   As a leader, you must understand what an organization needs from you and under what competencies are required to prioritize, perform, and thrive.   Understand what your followers need from you as a leader.   A leader must set the pace to avoid burnout and live a balanced life.    A high performing leader has the ability to balance humility and confidence.   Self-awareness is critical, a leader much learn the physical symptoms that come with self-doubt and lack of confidence.   Sometimes it takes a situation or some kind of adversity to occur in order to provide the opportunity for a leader to be great instead of just average   Resources Mentioned:   How We Decide  by Jonah Lehrer   Whistling Vivaldi: How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do  by Claude Steele   To learn more about how to become a resilient and adaptable leader please visit https://www.higherechelon.com/       Help us grow by leaving a rating or review on Apple Podcast  To learn more on how you can take your leadership to the next level, check out our service offerings: Resilient and Adaptable Leadership, Executive Coaching, and Change Management.  Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn

M   Make sure your affirmation is in the present tense, so not ‘I will be’ but ‘I am.’   Next make sure it’s not including the word ‘don’t’.  For example instead of ‘I don’t eat unhealthy foods’ use something like ‘I enjoy eating healthy food and how it gives me more energy’.     The reason for this is the brain doesn’t compute the word ‘don’t’, It will ignore it.  So when you use don’t in an affirmation it’s affirming the opposite of what you want!   For example, ‘I don’t want to be a failure’ you’re just affirming that you want to be a failure.  Try ‘I am taking positive steps towards my success every day.’   So those are the CORE basics.   Next up we have a few common things that people do that can get in the way of their affirmations working. Magical unicorn affirmations?   You think they’re magic, rather than science. SOoooooooo many people that teach them don’t give you the WHY or the basic background of why they work on a psychological and neurological level.  They give you fluffy stuff!    All that leads to is lack of motivation because really you don’t believe they’re going to work anyway.   Or inaction.   Both won’t work! All talk, no action!   Another thing that I see often is you’re not taking any actual action to make them true!     The affirmation itself is only HALF of the thing...you’ve gotta do the other half of the thing!!     The whole point of affirmations is to get your unconscious into a place where it lets you take the action towards your conscious desires so you can actually have them.     With ANYTHING there is always some sort of action required, even if it’s a baby step.  It drives me mad that this seems to be the key thing that so many people leave out when it’s absolutely fundamental.   It’s all too conscious   It’s too...CONSCIOUS.  Affirmations work with your UNCONSCIOUS mind.     You create cognitive dissonance when what you consciously affirm completely contradicts your unconscious beliefs.     It’s almost like you’re actually just re-affirming the negative belief.     The little negative committee voice in your head says ‘err...don’t think so’   You’re essentially completely lying to yourself.  You’re trying to affirm something that you 100% believe isn’t true.     For example when you’re told to use something like ‘I am financially free, money flows to me easily and effortlessly’.  You KNOW this isn’t true right now so it does nothing but affirm your negative belief.     So flip it on it’s head, what COULD be true right now?     How about something like ‘I always find the money I need for the things I prioritise.’    That’s something you can likely get on board with and level up over time.     It takes you out of scarcity mode which is the important thing.   Saying something you feel in your heart to be an outright lie can actually make you feel WORSE, which is backed up by various scientific studies!  They don’t feel good!   So not only are your affirmations not working, they’re making you feel WORSE!    They have to FEEL good, emotion is key,  so it activates the reward centre of the brain which will help form the habit and for the new belief to be accepted as truth.   Make them more powerful by allowing yourself to visualise your life if they were all 100% true right now.    Your brain will do the rest of the work for you...it’s always trying to make you right and doesn’t distinguish between what’s real and imagined, positive or negative, so show it your ‘truth’ and let it get to work.   Make them even MORE powerful by saying them while you’re in the alpha brainwave state.     So that’s when you’re in a meditative state and also good first thing in the morning and just before you go to sleep. You said them once   Another thing I see is a lack of consistency. You’re flippant with saying your affirmations and only say them ‘every now and again’ rather than making it part of your routine.   You want to be saying them or FEELING them as often as you can throughout the day.     Pop ups in your phone, post it notes around your house, in your journal, whatever you need to do.     Particularly focus on first thing in the morning, around meditating and before you go to sleep like I mentioned.   “Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action which makes it the architect of accomplishment.” - Zig Ziglar   Or here’s another for you, “Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.” - Earl Nightingale Watch your words   Watch the language you’re using.   As I mentioned before, make sure the language is in the present tense and there are no negative words such as don’t.     You’re saying affirmations to yourself all the time unconsciously. That negative committee is having a field day in your head with them.  ‘I’m not confident’, ‘I’m not good enough’, ‘I’m not good at X, Y, Z’.   So you’ve got to make sure you turn the positive ones into habits so you stop believing and are able to challenge the negative ones more quickly.     Watch out for using someone else's affirmations too.     It’s SO important you write them for yourself, sure take inspiration from other people but it has to be your language, how you speak.     It needs to be believable for YOU.     So sure take the ones that resonate but how would you say the same thing conversationally? You’re just trying to get it off the to do list   If you spend a little bit of time reading the HUGE list of affirmations created ONCE like you’re just ticking something off the to do list and then spend the remaining part of your day telling yourself the opposite and how useless and ugly, fat, stupid, unlikeable and how you’ll never be successful.     Can you potentially see how that might be counter intuitive? Back to action   Back to the actually taking action piece.     You may not have tried to fit your affirmations in with your goals...or set any at all!  How do you expect to get what you want when you’re not 100% clear on what that is?!   What’s the motivation behind the affirmation, what does it get you in the long run?  Try to create as much emotion as you can with it.   You don’t actually want it   Oooooh this is a biggie!  If your affirmations are linked to something you think you SHOULD want, not what you actually want, you’re going to struggle.     They need to be in line with your core values, what YOU really want.   You’re trying to train your brain and your subconscious mind here, rewire it, create new neural pathways, train your reticular activating system.     That’s a LOT to ask if you’re sending such mixed messages.     In fact you’re not sending mixed messages you’re reading something and your subconscious will just go ‘that was weird, don’t know what that’s about’ and set back to sending you all the evidence and behaviours of the messages you’re sending it the rest of the time...DOH!  A couple of extra tips for you.   When you catch yourself in a negative nelly moment re-read them or say them to yourself...but FEEL them as if they were already true.     Writing affirmations by hand or saying them in front of a mirror, or even including your name can really turbocharge your affirmations.    Even doing them with somatic movement can be incredibly powerful!    Revisit them regularly, they have to have some sort of emotional charge to them and often that changes over time.  For example, you might need to actually up level some of them because your subconscious has caught up, so what would the next level version of it be?   I mean, at the end of the day, if 5 minutes of your time every day to say some words out loud with a little feeling can help you get everything you want...is it not worth giving a go?   Hopefully a few of these tips will help you turbo charge those affirmations and start you seeing those all important results.   Make sure you tag me in on Instagram @imfranexcell.   If you know that now is the time to start changing things for yourself and want to explore this further, have any questions or want some accountability to make sure you’re doing the things you need to then please book in a free discovery call so we can see what needs to happen to get you from where you’re at right now, to the successful business owner you know you can be!!    Fx

Maya Angelou famously said, “I have written 11 books, but each time I think, ‘Uh oh, they're going to find out now. I've run a game on everybody, and they're going to find me out!'” This phenomenon of feeling less capable or talented than people think—despite ample evidence to the contrary—is known as imposter syndrome, and it impacts 70% of the population. So, how does imposter syndrome impact our behavior? And what can we do about it? Today, we're joined by Dr. Valerie Young, the internationally recognized authority on imposter syndrome and author of the award-winning book, The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women: Why Capable People Suffer from the Imposter Syndrome and How to Thrive in Spite of It. Valerie's career advice has been cited in media outlets such as BBC Radio, CNN Money, The Wall Street Journal and O Magazine, just to name a few. She has been invited to speak at 90-plus universities around the globe and for prestigious corporate clients such as Boeing, Facebook and Microsoft. Valerie begins by defining imposter syndrome and explaining how it manifests differently in men and women. She walks us through the ‘perfectly good reasons why you might feel like a fraud,' sharing the social and situational factors that fuel self-doubt. Valerie also discusses the concept of stereotype threat and offers examples of how being an outlier influences our behavior. Listen in for insight around the coping mechanisms we use to protect ourselves from imposter syndrome and learn how to reframe imposter thoughts and replace them with new ways of thinking! Themes explored in this week's episode: How Valerie defines imposter syndrome and her personal experience with feeling like an imposter The perfectly good reasons why you might feel like a fraud How imposter syndrome manifests differently in men vs. women Examples of icons who own up to imposter syndrome and why creatives are more susceptible Why it's crucial for leaders to understand imposter syndrome and how it impacts our behavior at work How people who don't feel like imposters think differently about competence, failure and fear How people with imposter syndrome minimize or discount their accomplishments The concept of stereotype threat and how it affects our behavior The connection between imposter syndrome and overachieving or overproducing How to use Valerie's list of rights as a foundation for managing imposter syndrome Resources from this episode: Connect with Valerie at impostersyndrome.com Follow @ValerieYoung on Twitter or Facebook Buy Valerie's book The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women Read the Clance & Imes paper on the Imposter Phenomenon Access Valerie's blog post on Michelle Obama Explore the research around the Dunning-Kruger Effect Read Betty Rollin's article in The New York Times Look at Claude Steele's work on stereotype threat Watch Valerie's TED Talk on imposter syndrome We would love to hear from you!

School's In with Dan Schwartz and Denise Pope: "How Stereotypes Can Impact School Performance w/ guest Claude Steele" Stanford Emeritus Professor Claude Steele discusses stereotype threat, how preconceived notions can impact academic performance, and what students, parents and teachers can do to address the issues that arise because of it. Originally aired on SiriusXM on February 3, 2018. Recorded by Stanford Video.

Claude Steele, emeritus professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education, discusses stereotype threat, how preconceived notions can impact academic performance, and what students, parents, and teachers can do to address the issues that arise because of it.

Back in 1995, Claude Steele published a study that showed that negative stereotypes could have a detrimental effect on students' academic performance. But the big surprise was that he could make that effect disappear with just a few simple changes in language. We were completely enamoured with this research when we first heard about it, but in the current roil of replications and self-examination in the field of social psychology, we have to wonder whether we can still cling to the hopes of our earlier selves, or if we might have to grow up just a little bit. This piece was produced by Simon Adler and Amanda Aronczyk and reported by Dan Engber and Amanda Aronczyk.  Support Radiolab today at Radiolab.org/donate.

Claude Steele discusses his groundbreaking research on stereotype threat and how it applies a social-psychological lens to academic achievement. (October 31, 2011)

Claude Steele discusses the affect stereotype threat has on performance and self-confidence and approaches that can mitigate that threat in academic settings. (October 31, 2011)

Claude Steele will discuss his seminal work on stereotype threat and his book Whistling Vivaldi: How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do. Steele received a BA from Hiram College and a PhD from Ohio State University. He served as the twenty-first provost of Columbia University and has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Education, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society. His book Whistling Vivaldi provides an essential roadmap for understanding the link between identity and performance, and how those of us involved in education can make significant strides in mitigating the effects of negative stereotypes in our communities. Steele was hosted by the Office for Institutional Diversity as the inaugural Community Reading Project guest; his lecture was cosponsored by the multicultural resource center and by Reed's Student Senate.

I didn't know what being black meant, but I was getting the idea that it was a big deal," writes renowned social psychologist Claude Steele in the opening pages of his new book, Whistling Vivaldi: How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do (W.W. Norton, 2011, p.2). Dr. Steele begins by recounting his early experiences of restrictions on swimming in his neighborhood park -- having to line up on Wednesday afternoons only. And then there was the roller rink, open to blacks on Thursday nights. The time is the 1950s, the place Chicagoland, with its rigid housing segregation, de facto school segregation, unemployment discrimination, and other social barriers. In Whistling Vivaldi, Dr. Steele presents an inside look at his research and details his innovative findings on stereotypes and identity. He reveals what it?s like to be stereotyped based on our gender, age, race, class; relates the trend of minority under-performance in higher education; and leads us to ponder the way we think about ourselves, our abilities, and our relationships with each other.
