Why do familiar experiences sometimes feel like they happened longer ago than they actually did? In this episode of Under the Cortex, host Özge Gürcanlı Fischer-Baum speaks with Brynn Sherman from the University of Pennsylvania about her recent study published in Psychological Science, the flagship journal of the Association for Psychological Science. Sherman's research uncovers a surprising illusion: repeated experiences, which are more vividly remembered, are often perceived as having occurred further in the past than they did. Through a series of experiments, Sherman and her colleague Yousif demonstrate that this distortion in time perception is both robust and consistent, shedding light on how our memories can mislead us about the timing of events. Tune in to explore the mechanisms behind this illusion and its implications for our understanding of memory and time.

How does your brain keep track of the people in your life—not just who they are, but where they are in relation to you and to each other? In this episode of Under the Cortex, Özge Gürcanlı Fischer-Baum talks with Robert Chavez from the University of Oregon about his new findings published in Psychological Science, the flagship journal of the Association for Psychological Science. His research shows that our brains rely on two separate systems to encode person-knowledge: one that maps others in the broader world (allocentric), and another that maps them in relation to ourselves (egocentric). Together, these systems help us organize social memory and navigate our relationships with others. Tune in to learn how the brain structures our social world—and why it matters.

Are You Spreading Stress to Your Team?

Stress is contagious—but so is calm. Which one are you spreading? Your team's performance depends on your answer. Stress Isn't the Problem—Staying Stuck Is We all experience stress, but remaining stuck in stress is where issues arise. Welcome back to Reflect Forward; I'm Kerry Siggins. Today we explore why stress is contagious and how leaders can effectively manage it. As leaders, our emotions significantly influence our teams. When stressed, our teams feel it too. When calm, we foster productivity and creativity. Why Stress is Contagious Mirror neurons, brain cells activated by observing actions or emotions, make stress contagious. A 2014 study in Psychological Science found simply seeing someone stressed can raise cortisol levels, increasing our stress response. Our body language often communicates more powerfully than words. A recent personal experience reminded me how critical managing facial expressions and posture is to maintaining a calm team environment. Why Managing Your Stress Matters Unchecked leader stress leads to: • Fearful, defensive cultures • Burnout and increased turnover • Lost credibility and trust Effective leadership starts with managing your emotional presence. Key Takeaways: Six Tips for Managing Stress 1. Practice Self-Awareness: Regularly identify and address stressors. 2. Breathe Before You Speak: Breathing deeply shifts your mindset from reactive to thoughtful. 3. Normalize, Don't Amplify Stress: Acknowledge stress calmly and communicate solutions. 4. Create Stress Recovery Rituals: Use exercise, journaling, meditation, or quiet walks to recharge. 5. Embrace the Ownership Mindset: Focus on controlling your response, not external circumstances. 6. Keep Perspective: Today's challenges are temporary. Maintain a measured approach. Weekly Action Items • Conduct an energy audit to pinpoint stressors. • Adopt one new stress-management practice immediately. • Lead with resilience, pausing and reflecting before reacting. Calm and chaos are contagious—choose wisely. Self-leadership is foundational to leading others effectively. If you found this helpful, please share, subscribe, and leave a review.

Pourquoi ne faut-il pas dire “je t'aime” dans une langue étrangère ?

Choses à Savoir

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 2, 2025 2:53

Que l'on parle français, anglais, arabe ou japonais, les mots que l'on utilise ne se contentent pas de transmettre des idées : ils modifient aussi notre manière de ressentir. De nombreuses études en psycholinguistique ont montré que nos émotions ne sont pas perçues ni exprimées de la même façon selon la langue que nous utilisons. Ce phénomène, à la croisée des neurosciences, de la psychologie et de la linguistique, repose sur plusieurs mécanismes cérébraux bien identifiés.1. Une langue étrangère est moins chargée émotionnellementQuand on parle une langue étrangère, l'attachement affectif est souvent moindre. En d'autres termes, les mots qui nous bouleverseraient dans notre langue maternelle peuvent paraître plus neutres ou plus distants dans une langue apprise à l'école. Ce phénomène s'explique par la manière dont les émotions sont associées aux souvenirs précoces : la langue maternelle est intimement liée à l'environnement familial, aux premières expériences émotionnelles, aux affects.Une étude particulièrement célèbre menée par Catherine Harris (Florida International University, 2003) a montré que les jurons ou insultes dans une langue étrangère provoquaient une réaction physiologique plus faible (comme une augmentation moindre du rythme cardiaque ou de la conductance cutanée) que dans la langue maternelle. Les participants ressentaient littéralement moins d'émotion en langue étrangère.2. Une distanciation cognitive accrue en langue étrangèreUne étude marquante publiée en 2017 dans Psychological Science par Sayuri Hayakawa et Boaz Keysar (Université de Chicago) a mis en évidence que penser en langue étrangère réduit les biais émotionnels et moraux. Par exemple, face à un dilemme moral classique (tuer une personne pour en sauver cinq), les participants prenaient des décisions plus rationnelles et utilitaristes en langue étrangère qu'en langue maternelle.Cela suggère que parler une autre langue active des circuits cérébraux plus "froids", notamment ceux associés au contrôle cognitif (dans le cortex préfrontal), et désactive partiellement les régions limbique et amygdalienne, impliquées dans les réponses émotionnelles. Le langage agit donc comme un filtre cognitif.3. Le cerveau traite différemment les émotions selon la langueDes études en neuroimagerie montrent que le traitement émotionnel dans le cerveau varie selon la langue utilisée. En particulier, lorsqu'on entend des mots émotionnels dans sa langue maternelle, l'insula et l'amygdale (centres de la peur, de la douleur sociale, de la joie) sont plus fortement activées que lorsque ces mots sont entendus en langue étrangère.En revanche, la langue étrangère active davantage le cortex préfrontal dorsolatéral, impliqué dans la prise de décision rationnelle. C'est comme si la langue étrangère activait davantage le "cerveau logique", et la langue maternelle le "cerveau émotionnel".4. Pourquoi il ne faut pas dire "je t'aime" dans une autre langueDire « je t'aime » dans sa langue maternelle, c'est puiser dans un réseau d'émotions enracinées depuis l'enfance, liées aux premières attaches affectives, à l'intimité familiale, aux premières vulnérabilités. En revanche, le dire dans une langue étrangère — même parfaitement maîtrisée — diminue l'intensité émotionnelle perçue, car cette langue n'active pas les mêmes régions cérébrales de la mémoire affective. Les mots prononcés dans une langue apprise tardivement mobilisent plus de contrôle cognitif que de vécu sensoriel. Le cerveau les traite de manière plus distante, moins viscérale. Ainsi, même si la phrase est grammaticalement correcte, le cœur ne vibre pas de la même façon. Ce décalage peut rendre certaines déclarations moins authentiques ou moins touchantes, simplement parce qu'elles ne résonnent pas dans les mêmes circuits neuronaux. Hébergé par Acast.

In this vital episode, Julie and Ginger dive into the intersection of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) with trauma-informed practices. As DEI comes under political and cultural scrutiny, the hosts make the case that there is no trauma-informed approach without embracing DEI.DEI is not optional for trauma-informed practice—it is essential.Diversity includes more than race: gender, neurodiversity, age, ability, and lived experience.Equity means adjusting systems and supports so everyone can thrive.Privilege isn't shameful—it's an opportunity to advocate and build awareness.Systems can either heal or harm—it's up to us to make them more inclusive.Diverse environments enhance safety, fairness, innovation, and connection.

Le sudoku permet-il vraiment de lutter contre le déclin cognitif ?

Choses à Savoir

Oui, le sudoku peut contribuer à ralentir le déclin cognitif, mais ses effets doivent être nuancés. Plusieurs études scientifiques ont exploré l'impact des jeux cérébraux, dont le sudoku, sur la santé cognitive, notamment chez les personnes âgées.Une étude publiée en 2019 dans The International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry a examiné l'effet des jeux de réflexion comme les mots croisés et le sudoku sur les capacités cognitives de plus de 19 000 participants âgés de 50 à 93 ans. Les résultats ont montré que ceux qui pratiquaient régulièrement ce type de jeux obtenaient de meilleurs scores dans des tests de mémoire, de raisonnement et d'attention. Plus spécifiquement, les performances cognitives de certains participants étaient équivalentes à celles de personnes 8 à 10 ans plus jeunes. Cela suggère une association positive entre la fréquence de ces activités et la préservation des fonctions mentales.Cependant, corrélation ne signifie pas nécessairement causalité. Une revue de la littérature menée par Simons et al. en 2016 (Psychological Science in the Public Interest) a mis en garde contre l'idée que les jeux cognitifs, dont le sudoku, puissent à eux seuls prévenir ou inverser le déclin cognitif. Selon cette analyse, si certaines études montrent des améliorations dans des tâches spécifiques après un entraînement cérébral, ces bénéfices ne se généralisent pas toujours à d'autres aspects de la vie quotidienne ou à la cognition globale.Cela dit, d'autres recherches appuient l'idée que maintenir une activité intellectuelle régulière — que ce soit via le sudoku, la lecture ou l'apprentissage d'une nouvelle compétence — est bénéfique pour le cerveau. L'étude ACTIVE (Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly), lancée aux États-Unis en 2002, a suivi plus de 2 800 personnes âgées. Elle a montré que des séances régulières d'entraînement cognitif pouvaient améliorer les capacités mentales et en ralentir le déclin pendant plusieurs années.Le sudoku, en particulier, mobilise plusieurs fonctions cognitives importantes : la mémoire de travail, la logique, l'attention et la vitesse de traitement. En le pratiquant régulièrement, on stimule ces fonctions, ce qui pourrait contribuer à maintenir la plasticité cérébrale. Mais pour que l'effet soit réel, l'activité doit être suffisamment complexe et renouvelée, afin de continuer à « challenger » le cerveau.En résumé, le sudoku ne constitue pas une solution miracle, mais s'intègre efficacement dans un mode de vie intellectuellement actif, qui, selon les données scientifiques, joue un rôle non négligeable dans la lutte contre le déclin cognitif lié à l'âge.

Ever walk away from a date or social event wondering, “Did they even like me?” You're not alone—and the answer might not be what you think. Psychologists call it the liking gap: the tendency we all have to assume people like us less than they actually do. It's common in dating, new friendships, and even in fresh work environments. But here's the kicker—this self-doubt can sabotage potential relationships before they've even started. A 2018 study in Psychological Science showed most people underestimate how much others enjoy their company. Why? Because we're often too critical of ourselves. So, how can you overcome the liking gap—and stop second-guessing every social interaction? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Working with Parents in Therapy: A Mentalization-Based Approach, by Norka Malberg, Elliot Jurist, Jordan Bate, and Mark Dangerfield (American Psychological Association, 2023) presents parenthood as a developmental process that can be supported by a mentalization-based model of intervention. The authors first provide an overview of mentalization (i.e., making sense of the mental lives of ourselves and others) and its related concepts, as well as guidance on assessment, formulation, treatment, and supervision from a mentalization framework. They then review challenges and opportunities for parents across development, with rich case examples and vignettes for each developmental phase. Dr. Jurist, who has doctorates in both philosophy and clinical psychology, brings a philosophical lens to our discussion of this book. We talk about mentalization and its development, as well as its role in culture, psychological health, and parenting.

In 1980, Michelle Smith published a book that triggered the Satanic Panic, a worldwide fear that Satan worshippers were recruiting millions to embrace satanism. Today, I explore the surprising science of false memories with Dr. Charan Ranganath, author of Why We Remember. Dr. Ranganath reveals how memory is more imagination than recollection, why some people vividly remember things that never happened, and why the Satanic Panic was based on fiction not fact. You'll learn: How Michelle Remembers sparked the Satanic Panic and shaped public fear. Why memories “recovered” in therapy can feel real but be completely false. How a memory expert misremembered her own mother's death.

Question: I am a registered psychotherapist and I reject Freudian and Jungian beliefs. However, I did find that when you remove these demonic influences and stick with the "science" behind psychology and filter it through the Bible that it's a powerful tool. Proverbs in particular along with New Testament scriptures encourage us to guard our heart and mind, renew our mind with God's Word, and find peace of mind. The Bible is actually the BASIS of TRUE Psychotherapy if you study the subject biblically. What do you say?Response: It's instructive that just in the last week we have been contacted by Christian psychologists who insist that "psychotherapy" by name has been discarded by Christians who limit themselves to being called Biblical Counselors. Further, secular psychologists have also gone down this path. We appreciate your "rejection" of Freudian and Jungian beliefs. It is clear that your heart is for those you seek to help. With that in mind, the pertinent question to ask, however, is how thorough that process has been? We say that because some of these counselors are still using the teachings of those you correctly label as "demonic influences."Other psychologists have "come out" with the same concern for how they have been trained, and what they have learned in practices that span several decades.More recently, the Transgender movement has shown that "science" has very little to do with an utterly emotional, anti-science practice. So, we have to make sure we've gutted the structure of psychology/psychotherapy.There is, however, the often seen reference to the “Science” of psychology. There's a fascinating article entitled The Puzzle of Paul Meehl: An intellectual history of research criticism in psychology (i.e., checking them out from the perspective of real science [https://bit.ly/4ihy1qX]).Professor Andrew Gelman writes, "There's nothing wrong with Meehl. He's great. The Puzzle of Paul Meehl is that everything we're saying now, all this stuff about the problems with Psychological Science and PPNAS and Ted Talks and all that, Paul Meehl was saying 50 years ago. And it was no secret. So how is it that all this was happening, in plain sight, and now here we are?"Meehl concluded his 1967 article by saying, "Some of the more horrible examples of this process would require the combined analytic and reconstructive efforts of Carnap, Hempel, and Popper to unscramble the logical relationships of theories and hypotheses to evidence. Meanwhile our eager-beaver researcher, undismayed by logic-of-science considerations and relying blissfully on the ‘exactitude' of modem statistical hypothesis-testing, has produced a long publication list and been promoted to a full professorship. In terms of his contribution to the enduring body of psychological knowledge, he has done hardly anything."We will pray that as you devise your way, the Lord will direct your steps further.

We often study cognition in other species, in part to learn about modes of thinking that are different from our own. Today's guest, psychologist/philosopher Alison Gopnik, argues that we needn't look that far: human children aren't simply undeveloped adults, they have a way of thinking that is importantly distinct from that of grownups. Children are explorers with ever-expanding neural connections; adults are exploiters who (they think) know how the world works. These studies have important implications for the training and use of artificial intelligence.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2025/03/17/308-alison-gopnik-on-children-ai-and-modes-of-thinking/Support Mindscape on Patreon.Alison Gopnik received her D.Phil in experimental psychology from Oxford University.

I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Greg Bottaro, a Catholic psychologist and founder of the Catholic Psych Institute. We delve into the complexities of identity, particularly in the context of gender dysphoria, and explore the importance of compassion in addressing these sensitive issues. Dr. Bottaro emphasizes the need for a blueprint for understanding the human person, which he believes is rooted in Catholic teachings. For a deep dive into this blueprint check out our other conversation in episode 152.We discuss how the Catholic vision of the human person can inform our approach to mental health and well-being. Dr. Bottaro shares insights on the unity of body and spirit, and how this understanding can help individuals who feel at odds with their identity. We also touch on the historical role of the Catholic Church in preserving knowledge and culture, and how this legacy can guide contemporary discussions about ethics and psychology.Throughout our conversation, we aim to explore critical questions: How can we approach those struggling with their identity with both compassion and truth? What does it mean to have a healthy understanding of personhood? And how can the principles of Catholicism provide a framework for healing and thriving in today's complex world? Join us as we navigate these profound topics and seek to understand the intersection of faith, reason, and mental health.Dr. Greg Bottaro is a Catholic psychologist, founder of the CatholicPsych Institute and creator of the CatholicPsych Model of Applied Personalism (CPMAP). He received his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Institute for the Psychological Sciences, and works to integrate Catholic philosophy and theology with relevant psychology. He leads the CatholicPsych Institute's mission to, "Create a Catholic Standard for Mental Health."Before becoming a psychologist, Dr. Bottaro discerned a religious vocation with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (CFRs). He lived in the Bronx for four years following the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi. Under the mentorship of Fr. Benedict Groeschel, this experience formed him in the spirituality of Abandonment to Divine Providence, which he now integrates with his model of psychology, along with the discernment of God's will he learned from Fr. Benedict.In 2012, Dr. Bottaro returned to New York as a psychologist and founded the CatholicPsych Institute, which has continued to grow and serve clients around the world.

What does Catholic theology have to offer the field of counseling psychology? Catholic psychologist Dr. Greg Bottaro joins me to explore the concept of the "blueprint of the human being" according to Catholic thought, emphasizing that we are made in the image of God, which inherently involves a relational aspect. Dr. Bottaro outlines five essential marks of relationship that shape our identity: being made in God's image, being formed in relationships, experiencing wounds in relationships, finding healing through relationships, and ultimately being destined for eternal relationship with God.We discuss how these principles extend into family life and the ideal structures for nurturing healthy relationships. I ask Dr. Bottaro about the common perception that Catholicism promotes repression, and he offers a nuanced perspective, highlighting the importance of authentic human experience and the developmental journey toward becoming our best selves in right relation with all things.Throughout our dialogue, we aim to uncover how understanding our relational nature can lead to deeper healing and growth, both personally and within our families. This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own relationships and the transformative power of connection in the context of faith and psychology.Dr. Greg Bottaro is a Catholic psychologist, founder of the CatholicPsych Institute and creator of the CatholicPsych Model of Applied Personalism (CPMAP).
