Podcasts about experimental social psychology

I'm excited to welcome Dr. Devon Price back to the show to talk about unmasking and self-acceptance for autistic individuals. You may know about Devon's book Unmasking Autism, and if you haven't I highly encourage you to go back and listen to our conversation about that book on the show – I'll have a link in the show notes or you can find it at tiltparenting.com/session292. But today, we are discussing Devon's brand new book Unmasking for Life: The Autistic Person's Guide to Connecting, Loving, and Living Authentically, which explores what it truly means to embrace one's identity in a world that still struggles with accessibility and inclusion. I think it's such an important book for parents of autistic children to read, as it shares insights into what our kids ultimately need to grow up as people who can advocate for their needs and invent new ways of living, loving, and being that work with their disability rather than against it. In this conversation, we discussed the journey of self-acceptance for autistic individuals and the cultural shifts happening around neurodivergence. Devon shared insights on how parents can support their children in embracing their authentic selves while navigating a world that often prioritizes conformity. And we also talked about the impact of generational trauma on family dynamics and why redefining success beyond societal norms is crucial for long-term well-being, and much much more. There are more adults discovering their own neurodivergence through parenting their own neurodivergent child, and I think Devon's book and everything he shared in this conversation can help anyone who is trying to live more authentically with their autism AND any parent who is raising an autistic child that wants to consider what life looks like for their child at various stages of life. This is a great one. Have a listen and please share this episode in your communities.   About Dr. Devon Price Devon Price, PhD, is a social psychologist, professor, author, and proud Autistic person.

Hey team! Today, we dive deep with Dr. Devon Price, a social psychologist known for his groundbreaking work on neurodiversity and societal expectations. Dr. Price, who identifies as transgender and autistic, brings a wealth of experience and personal insight to our discussion, focusing on the complexities of masking in neurodivergent individuals. Price graduated with a BA in psychology and political science from Ohio State University in 2009, and he obtained his MS and PhD from Loyola University Chicago, where he has been teaching as a clinical assistant professor at the School of Continuing and Professional Studies since 2012. You can find Dr. Price's research in journals such as the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, and the Journal of Positive Psychology. Dr. Price is also the author of the books Laziness Does Not Exist, Unmasking Autism, and Unlearning Shame. His new book Unmasking for Life is set to be released on March 25th - so if you're listening to this when it comes out tomorrow. I imagine with those book titles; you might have a good sense of where this episode is heading - although I will say that despite Dr. Price's focus on autism, these concepts absolutely apply to ADHD as well, and we definitely get into how they differ. In this episode, we explore the survival strategies behind masking and how these can morph into rigid personas that are hard to shed. We also unpack the nuances of camouflage and compensation in social interactions, the strategic yet often oppressive need to conform, and strategies for managing and minimizing masking in daily life. Dr. Price's expertise is not only academic; his lived experience enriches our understanding of these dynamics, making this episode a must-listen for anyone navigating the intricacies of neurodivergence. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/216 This Episode's Top Tips It's important to recognize masking as a tool that is not inherently good or bad. With that in mind, we can make conscious choices about how and when we want to be masking. While it can be hard to find places to authentically be yourself and unmask, it's important to find these spaces. These can be with friends and family, or if those are hard to find, there are many online communities to explore. For some, consistently masking can make it hard to remember who is under the mask. To help remove that mask, you can gradually work on introducing authentic traits or behaviors in safe spaces to reduce the psychological strain of constant masking. Additionally, you can consider professional guidance to help with unmasking, focusing on therapy that respects and understands neurodivergent experiences.

por Yaiza Santos Insistió en decirlo muy claramente: Sánchez ha ganado. Ya sucedió cuando el pueblo soberano de Cataluña eligió a Salvador Illa como su hombre y fue cristalizando en esa suerte de mainstream apaciguado. El anuncio del regreso de la Caixa, este miércoles, lo único que hace es sancionar ese «buen clima» del que le gusta hablar a la prensa socialdemócrata, el regalo que le faltaba al presidente para completar su plan, que ha llevado a cabo de manera implacable, con los métodos más despreciables (el último, el pacto de fronteras con Junts, que liquida el concepto de ciudadanía). Más vale que de todo esto tomemos nota, pidió, sobre todo el Partido Popular. Hablando de la oposición, elogió la intervención de Rajoy este miércoles en la comisión del Congreso, que ciertamente le dejó un rastro de melancolía. El expresidente fue impecable institucionalmente, y a la vez consciente de la gravedad allá afuera. Fue una lección para todos, resumió, y especialmente para Feijóo. Irremediablemente fue obligado de nuevo hablar de Trump, que, con su discurso en el Capitolio, demuestra su empeño en vivir la presidencia como si fuera un reality show. Así sucedió con Zelenski, quien –como él mismo una vez con aquel psicofante Mejide– no previó la encerrona televisiva en el Despacho Oval. Allí mismo pudo observar la verdadera cara, siniestra, de Vance, y también la de Marco Rublo, expolítico profesional. Rieron de buena gana con lo último de El País de viva la frígida, comentaron cuánto de verdad –¡de hueso de aguacate!– hay en los estereotipos de género y celebraron –a pesar de su disgusto por las efemérides– los cien programas.

Today, Tom Goodwin reveals the four simple truths about advertising, the surprising power of “wasted” marketing, and why aesthetics alone can make an ad more persuasive. You'll learn: Why most digital ads fail and how short-term thinking is to blame. The hidden power of repeated exposure (feat. Moreland & Beach's 1992 study). How slow-motion, jingles, and branding signals can make products feel more premium. Why targeting is overrated. The one thing marketers should focus on to create better campaigns without breaking the bank.

 | A couple weeks ago in one of my daily emails I asked for people's experiences, perspectives, and questions about culture. A reader responded:  As far as culture, my main frustration is a lack of initiative I notice in some of our adult, professional faculty members...  Behaviors like not arriving on time for a duty, being unwilling to contact parents (or reply to parent contacts), and walking past litter on the hallway floor are my frustration.  My question is how to make it the norm in our school to be proactive and to take initiative?  So, what does this mean when the adults aren't behaving like… well, adults?  The question to begin with is not “what can we do?” The question to start with is “Why is this happening?”Celebration: Weather over 60 degrees and sunny enough to make hiking a joy!Prelude: Who is a leaderOne challenge many leaders and potential leaders face is they don't “seem” or “feel” like leaders. This comes from a relatively narrow conception in our culture about what makes a leader. An overreliance on decision-making and charisma, as well as our culturally engrained images of the leader archetype, hamper our ability to encourage and develop leaders with a diverse set of skills. A participant in one of my recent trainings shared a 2020 article from Journal of Experimental Social Psychology. (link in show notes). The authors (Mueller, Jennifer S., Goncalo, Jack and Kamdar, Dishan) stated in their abstract:Study 1shows creative idea expression is negatively related to perceptions of leadership potential in a sample of employees working in jobs that required creative problem solving. Study 2 shows that participants randomly instructed to express creative solutions during an interaction are viewed as having lower leadership potential. A third scenario study replicated this finding showing that participants attributed less leadership potential to targets expressing creative ideas, except when the “charismatic” leader prototype was activated. In sum, we show that the negative association between expressing creative ideas and leadership potential is robust and underscores an important but previously unidentified bias against selecting effective leaders.Simple translation: Creative people aren't perceived as leaders unless they have high charisma…Full disclosure: I did not read and evaluate the entire article but their thesis is consistent with other research and my own observations and experiences.Stepping back, I wonder, in what context would creative problem solving not be a big advantage? And yet, the research suggests we are not inclined to view creative problem-solving as a desirable leadership characteristic. Maybe it is the same for people who are really good at asking questions?Or for people who are great at helping people collaborate with each other?Or maybe people who are great at helping others learn to lead?The challenge we face is that we have a narrow set of criteria we use, at a cultural level, to determine what leaders should be like. We have been conditioned to think about leaders in terms of a few specific characteristics like vision and decisiveness.In pre-defining what constitutes leadership, we limit the possibilities for nurturing leadership in the majority of people around us. The point I'm trying to make is that if we can look at people's strengths and seek to put people in position to leverage those strengths, we all win. I hope this all makes sense – it did to me when I write it but now, I'm not so sure

This week on ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast⁠, I am nerding out! I explore the concept of Tarot by Omission: what it means when a particular suit or archetype is missing from a reading, and how that absence can guide deeper self-exploration.  To bring this concept to life, I introduce a fictional, therapeutic case study, analyzing a tarot spread where Cups and Swords are absent, revealing deeper emotional and cognitive blocks. I also offer practical applications for identifying and working with omissions in your own readings. Side note: I didn't explore the absence of court cards, but I will be exploring this in an upcoming workshop inside The Symposium! Inspired by my clinical musings on silence in the therapy room, I reference the following study in this episode:  Koudenburg, N., Postmes, T., & Gordijn, E. H. (2011).

Send us a textIn this episode, Mark and Andrew dig into the story of the Ringelmann Effect, a phenomenon first observed by French academic Max Ringelmann that suggests that individuals produce less output when they're in a group. They explore the historical context of Ringelmann's research and compare it with later research that coined the terms ‘social loafing' and ‘the Sucker effect'. Discussing studies by Ingham, Latane, and Kerr, and their own insights, Mark & Andrew uncover how individual effort can decrease in group settings due to factors like coordination loss, lack of motivation, and perceived fairness. Despite these challenges, the episode demonstrates how teams can still achieve outcomes that individuals never could, as long as there's proper motivation and shared goals.Chapters00:00 Suckers, Social Loafing and the Ringelmann Effect00:45 Introduction to the Ringelmann Effect01:34 Exploring the Original Ringelmann Paper03:58 Ringelmann's Experiments and Findings08:42 Coordination vs. Motivation in Group Effort18:20 Steiner's research19:10 Extending Ringelmann: Ingham's Rope-Pulling Experiments23:11 Latané et al's research24:47 Latane's Social Loafing Studies28:21 Coordination vs Motivation32:26 Exploring Attribution and Equity35:46 Understanding Overconfidence Bias38:47 The Sucker Effect and Social Loafing47:04 Positive and Negative pulls on team performance48:49 The Role of Motivation in Team Dynamics59:52 Concluding Thoughts on TeamworkResearch cited:Latané, B., Williams, K., & Harkins, S.

Você trocaria duas horas com seu celular no jantar por uma garrafa de vinho? Enquanto a ciência tenta explicar nossas escolhas nem sempre saudáveis e movimentos alertam para a hiperutilização de smartphones, estabelecimentos como um restaurante em Verona lucram com marketing do detox digital. Estudo de 2018 publicado no Journal of Experimental Social Psychology descobriu que o celular não só distrai o foco dos amigos e familiares como reduz o bem-estar proporcionado pelas interações sociais. Ainda assim, quase 90% dos donos de smartphones ouvidos na pesquisa haviam relatado tê-lo usado recentemente nesse tipo de encontro. O Mulheres Reais vai ao ar às segundas-feiras, a partir das 8h, no Jornal Eldorado.

I saw a video recently from Rampley and Co in the UK featuring Caryn Franklin, a Fashion and Identity Commentator, talking about something called “enclothed cognition”.  When I saw her work title - Fashion and Identity Commentator - and the reference to psychology, I was dubious.  I was thinking, “here we go, more psychobabble”.  She referenced a psychology study by Hajo Adam and Adam Galinsky, published in the journal of Experimental Social Psychology in July 2012. They looked at the “diverse impact that clothes can have on the wearer by proposing that enclothed cognition involves the co-occurrence of two independent factors - the symbolic meaning of the clothes and the physical experience of wearing them”.  In short, the influence of clothes depends on wearing them and their symbolic meaning. For the leader, this means to me that what I choose to wear impacts how I feel about myself and how I am perceived by those around me.  For men in business in Japan, if you are a white-collar worker, that means wearing a suit.  If the choice of suit and all the other accoutrements like shirts, ties, pocket squares, cufflinks, watches, shoes, etc., are important, how much thought do we normally put into it? We all know old sayings like “dress for success” and intrinsically, we get it.  Wearing a suit like a slob, with food stains on the tie and down at heel, scuffed shoes, is sending a message about our own self-worth and our professional brand to the public.  On the other hand, if we wear a well-cut suit, with an overall smart appearance, we feel more confident and more capable and the research bears this out. If this is the case, then should we be better educated about what we are wearing?  When I moved from being a Griffith University Modern Asian Studies Ph.D. candidate to graduating and getting my first real corporate job, I had no idea what to wear.  I never saw my father wear a suit to work and I didn't grow up with any concepts about men's classic clothing.  Brisbane is a hot and humid climate, so generally, everyone dressed for the weather and I did too.  One small blessing was that I had the self-awareness to know I was clueless.  I went to see Mitchell Ogilvie, who at that time, had his men's clothing store in upper Edward Street in Brisbane and it had the dark wood panelling, leather chairs and was very swish.  I explained that I was about the start work at Jones, Lang, Wootton, but had no appropriate clothing to suit the work.  Mitch assured me he was dressing many of the Directors there, so he knew exactly what I needed to buy, to blend in.  He did a good job (thanks Mitch) and I always felt I was one of the better dressed employees there and this helped my confidence and how I was regarded. Around that time, the Prime Minister of Australia became Paul Keating from the Labor Party.  He, like me, grew up in modest circumstances and yet he managed to get the highest position in the land.  I read somewhere that unlike his predecessors, he didn't wear suits made in Australia, but wore Italian suits by Ermenegildo Zegna.  When I would see him on television, in the Parliament, giving speeches, he always looked very sharp and better dressed than his Tory political opponents. I decided I would wear Zegna suits too and have been a client for thirty years and their size 52 fits me like it was designed for my body. It gave me confidence, even when I was out of my depth, that at least I looked like I knew what I was doing. Had I ever planned my wardrobe with my personal brand in mind?  Not really.  I had just accumulated suits over the years, especially when travelling to Italy on holiday.  I would wear them out and simply buy a replacement. Over the last decade, I have started to add more custom suits and have started to think more about what I am wearing and why. I wish I had done this much earlier, given the psychology of how you feel based on what you are wearing and how people regard you professionally, regarding your public brand. I often get compliments about how well I am dressed and earlier this year I started a blog on social media called “Fare Bella Figura – Master First Impressions, Be A Sharp Dressed Man”.  I was highly hesitant to launch it, because I had never seen a businessman like myself, completely unrelated to the clothing business, talking about what he was wearing and why.  The premise was that people make snap judgments about us, based on how we look, before we even get a chance to open our mouths, so why not do more to control that first impression?  At that time, I wasn't aware of this research by Adam and Galinsky, but instinctively felt what I would choose to wear was impacting my confidence and my image with others before I had a chance to speak with them. If it makes a difference, as leaders, we need to make the most of this opportunity to increase our strength internally and externally, vis-à-vis our business rivals.  It requires study and dough to do it, but if we take the long-term view, it is doable.  Don't be like me and work all of this out too lethargically.  Instead, work on assembling your classic men's clothing armour in Japan and wade into battle, duking it out with your competition and win!  

A lot of the things that we do are a result of unconscious habit rather than conscious choice. It is unclear how the conscious and unconscious selves relate to each other. But if you want to have healthy habits, you must learn to integrate your unconscious self with your more thoughtful conscious self. For instance, people with good self-control are acting on habit. --------------------------------------------------------- About Wendy Wood: Wendy Wood is a social psychologist whose research addresses the ways that habits guide behavior - and why they are so difficult to break - as well as evolutionary accounts of gender differences in behavior.

Many of our behaviors may not be goal-oriented. Instead, they are based on habit. For example, what motivates someone to go running at 5 am: a goal, willpower, or habit? It's probably a mixture of all three, but habit is the most important. If you want to change your behavior, you must change your habits. -------------------------------------------------------------- About Wendy Wood: Wendy Wood is a social psychologist whose research addresses the ways that habits guide behavior - and why they are so difficult to break - as well as evolutionary accounts of gender differences in behavior.

When you start learning a new skill, you have to make conscious decisions and exert continuous willpower to practice and improve. Only over time does a skill become "automatic" and transform into a habit that can be performed at a high level. While practice is important to becoming "elite" at any particular skill, there are also many other factors at play, such as innate talent and opportunity. ------------------------------------------------- About Wendy Wood: Wendy Wood is a social psychologist whose research addresses the ways that habits guide behavior - and why they are so difficult to break - as well as evolutionary accounts of gender differences in behavior.

There are 38 kinds of secrets. The average person has 13 at any given moment. Michael Slepian explains how that can affect your health. We all have secrets. The average person has as many as 13 secrets at any given time. Usually, we hold secrets to protect something, such as our reputation or someone we care about.

33% of people cheat, and 77% of people want to know about their partner's infidelity. Would you tell your partner? Michael Slepian, an expert on secrecy, explains how. About one-third of people have committed infidelity at some point in their lives. If you're one of them, should you confess it to your romantic partner? One way to answer the question is to consider whether you would want to know if your partner had cheated on you: Surveys show that 77% of people would want to know, but that still leaves about a quarter of us who'd prefer ignorance. It's also worth questioning your own motives: Maybe you only want to get the secret off your chest to make yourself feel better. It's a difficult dilemma with no one-size-fits-all solution. But fortunately, as psychologist Michael Slepian explained to Big Think, recent research has been revealing insights on the nature of secrets, what happens when we harbor them, and how and when we should consider getting them off our chest. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Michael Slepian: Michael Slepian is the Sanford C.

Columbia professor Michael Slepian collected thousands of secrets. They all had 3 things in common. How many secrets are you holding right now? If the answer is around 13, you're about average, according to research on the nature of secrets. Secrets aren't all bad. Some are rather trivial. But sometimes, keeping secrets can weigh us down and cause psychological distress. Michael Slepian, an associate professor at Columbia Business School, has spent years studying the nature of secrets, why we hold them, and which kinds of secrets people tend to deem the most serious. As Slepian explains in this Big Think video, his research has revealed that secrets can generally be sorted into three domains.

Pressure bursts pipes. Keeping a secret can do the same to your mind, explains Michael Slepian. Holding secrets can negatively impact your well-being. But how, exactly? For decades, psychological research suggested that people experience significant stress while hiding secrets from others during social interactions. But this explanation often doesn't feel right to people, notes Michael Slepian, an associate professor at Columbia Business School who has spent years studying the nature of secrets. Surveys suggest that it's actually pretty rare for people to find themselves in social situations where they have to actively conceal a secret they've never told anyone about. So, how are secrets harming us? In other words, the average experience of concealing a secret turns out to be an easy one. About Michael Slepian: Michael Slepian is the Sanford C. Bernstein & Co.

In this insightful episode, behavioral scientist Wendy Wood challenges the negative perception of habits in psychology. She explores the profound impact habits have on human behavior, often operating beneath our conscious awareness. Through a compelling example from the 1980s, Wood illustrates the power of habits in influencing everyday choices, emphasizing the role of "friction" as barriers to behavior change. The episode delves into the science behind habit formation, highlighting the crucial role of rewards and dopamine release. Wood emphasizes the importance of working with one's environment to facilitate behavior change and explores how habits contribute to a sense of meaning and control in life. The episode concludes with a reflection on the effectiveness of rituals, drawing parallels with professional athletes who harness habits for confidence and success. This interview is an episode from The Well, our new publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the John Templeton Foundation. Bad habits can be challenging to change due to friction — that is, the time and effort it takes to overcome them. It is widely believed that through better self-control, our habits will change. But it doesn't work like that. The only way to change a bad habit is through repetitive good behavior. Good behavior leads to better outcomes, which leads to our brain releasing dopamine. This "reward" is what helps us form good habits. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Wendy Wood: Wendy Wood is a social psychologist whose research addresses the ways that habits guide behavior - and why they are so difficult to break - as well as evolutionary accounts of gender differences in behavior. Professor Wood has been Associate Editor of Psychological Review, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Personality and Social Psychology Review, and Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin. She is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association, the American Psychological Society, the Society for Experimental Social Psychology, and a founding member of the Society for Research Synthesis. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, National Institute of Mental Health, and Rockefeller Foundation. Prior to joining USC, Professor Wood was James B.

The start of the New Year always rings in new possibilities. However, setting and achieving goals for yourself and by yourself is harder than it seems. There are a multitude of obstacles including questions like knowing which tasks and ambitions to prioritize, where exactly to start, and how best to carry on when facing roadblocks and distractions. One truth remains though, we are likely to follow through with goals and pursuits that we are highly motivated about.On this episode, behavioral scientist, Chicago Booth professor, and leading expert on motivation, Dr. Ayelet Fishbach, Ph.D., discusses ways to think about and apply motivation to our lives and what people need to know about leveraging social support to stay motivated in our goal pursuit. Motivation is defined as a psychological force that enables action and a key to mastering Executive Function is to close the gap between one's intentions and one's actions.About Ayelet FishbachAyelet Fishbach, PhD, is the Jeffrey Breakenridge Keller Professor of Behavioral Science and Marketing at the University of Chicago, Booth School of Business and the author of GET IT DONE: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation.

In today's holiday mental health news special:The holiday blues and tips for navigating the season      Psychology of gift-giving Paradox mindset and winter solsticeSupportive resource  for yourself and others this holiday seasonPodcast listeners will receive 15% off our upcoming live training, Liberating Joy From Loss Through Prescriptive Memory Making and Dyadic Creativity with Dreamscape Developer Nancy Gersham (code revealed at the end of the podcast).    When working with a client's memory, how do we locate the fleeting, joyful bits so often overshadowed by loss that no new insights can emerge? This playful approach begins with curating novelty from positive felt-sense memories- then co-creating an even more novel "prescriptive" memory from these lived experiences to become where healing can happen. In this master class, Nancy Gershman will introduce a cinematic technique for arriving at the memory our client needs to move from isolation to re-integration in the world. Case studies will demonstrate how prescriptive memories are compounded in a client's imagination, with magic realism launching memory reconsolidation capable of updating long-term distressing memories. Live demos will give you an excellent sense of how to listen or prompt for incongruity so you can lead your client to new sources of courage and humor based on personally developed imaginal or photo-based artwork. Implications for using this method in-person or via telehealth, with adult populations (grief and non-death related loss) and in clinical settings (hospice) will be addressed. This training requires no artistic background and applies to all licensed mental health providers.Music Credits Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/john-hayes/no-homeLicense code: AUSKJNHP3I5LFRAZhttps://uppbeat.io/t/soundroll/winter-morningLicense code: YCGDQOP7O1SDTYSChttps://uppbeat.io/t/roger-gabalda/winters-taleLicense code: BJNUFGEXVAZIHKSChttps://uppbeat.io/t/roo-walker/elf-cultureLicense code: Q1OZM4OIW9U0P4PNClip Credits Malacomca @FTANDMEGLOW Up with Rashá @LifewithRashaPBS Newshour @PBSNewsHourOur changing Climate @OurChangingClimateRoundtable @RoundtableTRTWorldBrainCraft @braincraftTED - ED  @TEDEdVideo by Pressmaster: https://www.pexels.com/video/an-elderly-woman-giving-a-gift-to-her-husband-3192051/Video by Tobias Wagner: https://www.pexels.com/video/the-sun-illuminating-earth-s-surface-4156415/ Linkshttps://www.findhelp.org (find local assistance resources near you) SourcesGilovich, T., & Kumar, A.

In this week's episode Mike and Elizabeth discuss the motivation to appear moral without incurring the losses that may accompany actually behaving morally (like being thought of as a cheater or liar).  In one paper, researchers showed that in order to appear fair in the eyes of others, participants engaged in social deception to disguise their selfish behavior.  In another paper, participants were more unethical and self-serving in ambiguous situations, and in a third paper ambiguity led participants to behave unethically in order to benefit a person for whom they were induced to feel compassion.  Results are discussed in the context of contemporary virtue signaling.

Words matter. Unbelievably, tiny changes to language can have a big effect on behavior. Hear bestselling author, Jonah Berger reveal the magic words that can completely transform how we behave, in this riveting episode. Almost everything we do involves words. But have you ever stopped to consider how much influence the words you choose can have on the person reading your email, or listening to your presentation? Some words are more impactful than others. In fact, we can captivate, motivate and convince people with our words. But which words are the most powerful?  Listen in to find out: How words can shape our identity. Tips on using language to positively affect our relationships. How simply changing the words in an email can dramatically alter behavior.

Most of us strive to be good, moral people. When we are doing that striving, what is happening in our brains? Some of our moral inclinations seem pretty automatic and subconscious. Other times we have to sit down and deploy our full cognitive faculties to reason through a tricky moral dilemma. I talk with psychologist Molly Crockett about where our moral intuitions come from, how they can sometimes serve as cover for bad behaviors, and how morality shapes our self-image.Support Mindscape on Patreon.Molly J.

Our culture is obsessed with productivity and getting things done. We use a multitude of communication apps, neverending to-do lists, and countless productivity books and software to help us stay motivated and on top of things, but often we still end up feeling like we get nothing done at all. We feel burned out and more like a human doing instead of a human being. How do we get off staying busy for busyness sake and how can we become productive in a sustainable and healthy way? I am excited to introduce today's guest, Dr. Ayelet Fishbach. Dr. Fishbach is an internationally recognized expert in the field of human motivation and decision making.

If you could change the word privilege, given its recent incendiary tendency, so that it wouldn't be so reactionary, what word would you choose that might invite and allow a conversation between folks that might be a little more inviting, a little bit more engaged, and a little bit more inclusive? In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Brian Lowery. Brian is a professor of Organizational Behavior and a Social Psychologist by training at Stanford Graduate School of Business. Brian is driving an initiative to shape enlightened and purposeful leaders for a diverse society. Brian's research examines the operation of racial attitudes below the threshold of consciousness and the perception of inequality. He has been published in major scholarly journals such as the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, and Law and Human Behavior. Together Graham and Brian discuss how identifying privilege can direct our actions and provides an opportunity to improve ourselves and our community. They discuss how defensiveness and the feelings of guilt, shame, and avoidance towards privilege deprives us of a richer life. And lastly, they discuss what a more just and equitable world would look like and how in current times, we should have a minimal level of life quality. We will resume this conversation in our next upcoming podcast.
