Podcasts about social context

My guest is Tom Segura, renowned comedian, writer, actor and director. We discuss the “how-to” of comedy writing and storytelling, and what the science of humor and the creative process reveal about human emotion and memory. We explore why surprise and the act of "saying the unspoken truth" activate the brain's reward circuits, as well as the subconscious mechanisms that shape our sense of what is funny. The episode also examines the bi-directional influence between comedy and cultural standards. It will interest anyone curious about the science of humor, the art of performance and emotional contagion. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Got a question about the show? Click here & Send us a text!Hey, Legends! Welcome back to The Building Talks Podcast! In this episode, we're diving into a fascinating and thought-provoking topic—Post Carbon Inclusion.Our guests for this episode are Ralph Horne and Louise Dorignon from RMIT University in Melbourne. Ralph is the Associate Deputy Vice Chancellor at the College of Design and Social Context, while Louise serves as the Vice Chancellor's Postdoctoral Research Fellow. Together, along with others they've co-authored Post Carbon Inclusion (get your hands on a copy here), a book that explores the intersection of decarbonisation and inequality within the built environment.This episode goes beyond the usual discussions of around project delivery, companies, design, Engineering or Architecture. Instead, we ask big-picture questions:How do we ensure decarbonisation is delivered equitably?

Alcohol is often consumed around others: at bars or clubs, social events, college parties, or dinner with friends. How does alcohol influence social connection, and vis-a-versa? Why are they so seemingly interconnected? In this episode, Dr. Michael Sayette discusses his research on alcohol's relationship with the social context and the clinical importance of understanding how the acute effects of alcohol influence social connection. Dr. Sayette is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh. You can learn more about his work here.

On this edition of One Single Story, Pastors Stephen Mizell and Sharon Schwartz discuss the following questions: What are some ways that this passage might be applied if it were misinterpreted outside of its social context? There is so much social pressure on American Christians in this generation. How much influence should social context have on our daily decisions? The subject of this passage is not modesty of dress, but how our dress choices can and do communicate to others about Christ. What do our fashion choices say to others about Christ? The reading for the day is 1 Corinthians 11.

Ice baths, 4 AM wake-up calls, fasts and more are garnering big-time attention on social media and elsewhere as paths to mental toughness, personal success and more. Beyond the 15 minutes of fame garnered by the post, is there any legitimate science behind these and other less dramatic ways to step into and through discomfort? And why, in the midst of the growing popularity of these strategies, do most of us often find it difficult – not to step into an ice bath - but to simply get off the couch and get moving?What does the science – the evidence - tell us? Is an ability to do hard things due to genetics? Habit?  A combination of the two? Are there ways to enhance our ability to step into challenges with purpose? Or are we just stuck with the way we are, with no practical ways in which to enhance our skill set in this realm? In this episode, we'll dig into these questions and more as we explore the part of the brain that appears to play a significant role in the process of moving outside our veritable comfort zones, and why it's so important to both our current and future lives.

Ett femtio år gammalt ljudarkiv med två tusen folkvisor på jiddisch, framförda av 75 äldre personer. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Vad som var speciellt med YIVO Folksong Project: East European Jewish Folksong in its Social Context, Östeuropeisk judisk folksång i sitt sociala sammanhang, jämfört med tidigare musik-etnologiska inspelningsprojekt var att fokus låg på sångarna snarare än på sångerna i sig. Med frågor som var de lärde sig sångerna, vid vilka tillfällen de sjöng dem och vad de väcker för känslor hos dem kunde musiken sättas in just i sitt sociala sammanhang.Nu har alla 230 timmar sånger och berättelser gjorts tillgängliga på nätet.

About the Mini Series Welcome to our special mini series - "Context of Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity". This six-part series, hosted by Dr. Olli Tikkanen and sponsored by Fibion, provides a deep dive into the multifaceted world of physical activity and sedentary behavior. The series is aimed at researchers, clinicians, and anyone interested in understanding and influencing human behavior in relation to physical activity. The series explores the social, emotional, and temporal contexts of these behaviors, discusses measurement techniques, and offers insights on how these understandings can be used to design and implement effective interventions. About the Episode Topic In this first episode titled "The Role of Social Context in Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior," we explore how social elements can greatly impact our choices about physical activity and sedentary habits. Our social networks - including our family, friends, and colleagues - can greatly influence our daily activity levels and lifestyle choices. The episode discusses how various social elements like family dynamics, workplace environments, community support, socioeconomic factors, and cultural context can either promote or inhibit active lifestyle choices. We further delve into how understanding these factors can help us devise personalized strategies to encourage physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviors. By doing so, we aim to better understand the wider social context of our daily behaviors and how this knowledge can be used to promote healthier living. The episode concludes with a teaser for the next episode that will delve into the emotional context of physical activity and sedentary behavior.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2022.12.29.522176v1?rss=1 Authors: Lee, J., Kwak, D., Lee, G. U., Kim, C. Y., Park, S. H., Choi, J. H., Lee, S. Q., Choe, H. K. Abstract: Although mice are social animals, studies that explore the simultaneously recorded neural activities of multiple mice, especially in a social setting, are still lacking. In this study, we simultaneously recorded local field potential (LFP) signals in the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) from up to four mice. The brain activities of the mice were measured in two contradicting conditions - freely interacting in a group or being individually separated. We found that social context and the locomotive states predominately modulate the entire LFP structure. Power spectral density (PSD) estimate and spectrogram of LFP signals showed a broadband modulation; lower frequency bands--delta ( less than 4Hz), theta (4-7Hz), and alpha (8-12Hz) power were highly correlated to each other and anti-correlated with gamma and high gamma ( greater than 30Hz) power. We calculated the high-to-low-power ratio (HLR) and found that HLR was higher when the mice were in a group than were separated. The HLR was also higher when they were active--whether or not they were moving. The mice in the group showed higher HLR in any locomotive states. We then analyzed whether social context can be divided into sub-contexts. Notably, the aggregation of animals, called huddling, decreased social context-induced increase in HLR. Multibrain analyses of HLR indicated that the mice in the group displayed high cross-correlation to each other, indicating interbrain synchrony. Then we examined whether there is any directional relationship between HLR from pairs of mice. A majority of dyad selected within the group of mice showed unilateral precedence of HLR by Granger causality analysis, comprising a hierarchical social structure based on a directionality of influence. Overall, this study shows the importance of the social environment in brain dynamics and emphasizes the value of simultaneous multibrain recording for researching social behaviors and their neural correlates.

The Buddha made clear that the success of our practice depends critically on an appropriate social context for practice. Self-help focuses on practice in inappropriate contexts. (Buddhism as Self-Help 9, 11/18/2022)

"You can be, at least according to Christian thought, the only sinless person in human history, and you can still be tortured and crucified in your early thirties."From the perspective of Christian theology, it's probably not going too far to say that both the moral exemplarity and the suffering life of Jesus should be central to the Christian understanding of flourishing. Here's another way to put it. Jesus was morally perfect and sinless, but encountered immense suffering, poverty, marginalization, and eventual torture and death. Tempted, yet without sin. But also counted among the sinners, according to Isaiah 53's "Suffering Servant" theme. He is acquainted with grief, familiar with sorrow, anguished in his soul.And so the big question here is: What kind of flourishing do we envision when we follow Christ toward that flourishing?Today, we're sharing a conversation between Matt Croasmun and Katie Grimes, Assistant Professor of Theological Ethics at Villanova University. Together they discuss the social context of theology, trying to make sense of the role of Christ in approaching theology from the perspective of flourishing. For Katie, thinking about flourishing means thinking about virtues and vices, and that means thinking about the habits that pull us along toward the fully realized human good. But it also means pursuing a theological vision that accounts for the most troubling social realities.Production NotesThis podcast featured Katie Grimes & Matt CroasmunEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

Organizations develop strategic plans towards their future. However, many plans end up being divided into tasks that are distributed throughout the organization without a unified thread. This leads to a lack of focused action and clarity. In this age of ceaseless change and innovation, clarity is mandatory for high-growth outcomes. In today's episode we interview Lori Michele Leavitt, President and CEO of Abrige Corp. and author of the books, The Pivot: Orchestrating Extraordinary Business Momentum, and new release (April 2022), Pivot to Clarity. Today's topic is locked-in on the concept of aligned momentum; specifically, the clarity and mindful implementation of change as organizations Team Anywhere.Read the FULL Summary here!

In this episode Professor Todd Lewis discusses the importance of reaching students where they are, of unsettling their assumptions, and of teaching broad religious literacy in a world where much religious illiteracy prevails. He centers ritual and art in much of his teaching, wanting to balance the focus on elite and textual arts with popular practices and an awareness of the diversity of practitioners. He also communicates the complexity of different types of Buddhism through the use of diagrams like ones he has made that show different methods between Theravada and Mahayana understandings of the Buddhist path. Lewis is a Distinguished Professor of Arts and Humanities and Professor of World Religions in the Religious Studies Department at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester MA. He teaches and publishes research on Buddhism, Hinduism, East Asian religions, anthropology of religions, modernization, ecology and religion, and he has won numerous awards for both his teaching and his research. This episode was recorded in December 2020.  Quotes “I think the bell curve is essential for studying all religions. There are really dedicated followers who may become monks and nuns, in the case of Buddhism, and there are people who barely show up or don't show up or who don't even believe this stuff unless they're pressed on the other tail of that. Then you have people in the middle, and every religion in every place can maybe be filled out in terms of the way these are specifically fulfilled.” Todd Lewis  “You can't essentialize Buddhism as any part of that bell curve.” Todd Lewis  “All social life is based on exchange.” Todd Lewis “Not all monks are virtuoso meditators.” Todd Lewis  “You need to show students Buddhists doing rituals. You need to show them gathering on full moon days and circumambulating stupas by the tens of thousands today.” Todd Lewis  “I don't want to get too sidetracked with the students about how some of these museums actually got their art but that's how we circle back to Orientalism.” Todd Lewis  “You want to make students aware and think about what their biases are as they enter in.” Todd Lewis “I want to provide a social context so that Buddhism doesn't just float out in our imaginations as something that exists without being grounded in particular places and times.” Todd Lewis  “We're going to disproportionately study the intellectuals and the philosophers, but I am trying to have them read and describe and see rituals, to see how Buddhism is lived in different times and places.” Todd Lewis “Museums are not the place to really understand the fullness of art, you have to see how it works.” Todd Lewis  “The context of our teaching is a huge part of how we should teach... I think you have to really meet your students where they are, and every institution has a slightly different culture.” Todd Lewis  “I want them to just see how they may have seen Buddhism dismissed as something that's flaky or not to be taken seriously. But there also is this hyper-idealizing of Buddhism in which Buddhism is accepted uncritically.” Todd Lewis  “We are still dealing with some of the distortions and misconceptions and stereotypes that Westerners brought to Buddhism.” Todd Lewis  “Religion always has to take into account both the transcendental elements and the pragmatic elements. If you neglect that, you're really missing something.” Todd Lewis  “We have religious illiteracy as a problem.” Todd Lewis  Links and References 8-fold path schema of Buddhaghosa Link on Teaching Buddhism website  Todd Lewis, College of the Holy Cross, Department of Religious Studies faculty profile page Stolen Images of Nepal, Lain Singh Bangdel, purchase book here Encyclopaedia of Buddhism, Robert Buswell, purchase book here Pancha Raksha, link to website "Transcendental and Pragmatic Aspects of Religion,” David G.

How might we reconcile the human species with the natural environment through excellent design?This week on The Learning Future podcast, we speak with Ewan McEoin, Hugh D.T Williamson Senior Curator of Contemporary Art, Design and Architecture at the NGV. We discuss the power of design to transcend pure aesthetics and ergonomics to include the political, social and ecological contexts in which things emerge. What are the consequences of our design choices, and how do we make the true cost of choice visible? Ewan takes us through increased transparency, empathy through an object, educating educators around design, and how we can support all people to be designers. Everyone can have a go at coming up with a better way of doing something. Ewan McEoin is Hugh D.T Williamson Senior Curator of Contemporary Art, Design and Architecture at the NGV. His role at the NGV includes collecting, advocating, and curating exhibitions, including solo, survey and thematic exhibitions.

Today is a discussion of Historically Black Colleges/Universities and Public Health in Nashville with Andrea Ringer, Learotha Williams, and A. Hannibal Leach. Dr. A. Hannibal Leach is the Interim Assistant Dean of the School of Humanities and Behavioral Social Sciences of Fisk University. He is also an Assistant Professor of Political Science and director of the African American Studies program.  He is the author of The Social Context of Public Opinion and Foreign Policy, which explores the role social identity plays in shaping mass attitudes toward U.S. foreign policy. His current research uses computational methods to understand how critical race theory helps to explain political phenomena in the context of international politics and amongst American political leadership. Dr. Leach also authors a tri-monthly publication known as the Leach Political Report. The publication provides an informed Black perspective on political issues concerning the American South. Andrea Ringer is an Atlantic World scholar at TSU, with a focus on the history of transnational workers. Her current project asks questions about the circus as a workplace and the history of its migrant laborers.  Using more than a dozen archives from across the country, interviews, trade journals, and hundreds of local newspapers, her work explores how the relevancy of the circus depended on the blurred lines between worker and performer.  Her previous publications explore punitive justice and prison privatization, and she currently has two articles on circus workers currently in revision.  “’Because it is cheaper and better’: 1980s Corrections Policies and Prison Privatization in Tennessee,” Tennessee Historical Quarterly, Summer 2018. Learotha Williams, Jr., PhD. is a scholar of African American, Civil War and Reconstruction, and Public History at Tennessee State University.   Dr. Williams has worked as a Historic Sites Specialist for the State of Florida, acted as coordinator of the African American Studies Program at Armstrong Atlantic State University, and served as a trustee of the Historic Savannah Foundation in Savannah, Georgia. At TSU, he coordinates the North Nashville Heritage Project, an effort that seeks to encourage a greater understanding of the history of North Nashville, including but not limited to Jefferson Street and its historic relationship to the greater Nashville community. His most recent publication is a work he coedited with Amie Thurber entitled, I'll Take You There: Exploring Nashville's Sites of Social Justice which will be published by Vanderbilt University Press in April 2021.

Depuis la fin du 19e siècle, les momies ne cessent d'être invoquées dans notre imaginaire collectif comme des êtres vengeurs, détruisant tout ou presque sur leur passage afin de punir ceux qui auraient osé troubler leur tombe ou pire, leur repos millénaire. Cette perception est tellement dans notre imaginaire collectif que le cinéma et la littérature en perpétuent toujours l'image. Pour soutenir financièrement la chaîne, trois choix: 1.

The Daf seems to deal with Shemita. However there is an overarching theme about the relationship between people and things, and the geographical, time and ciltural context in which they are. The Gemarra explores the impact of this context on Shemitta produce as it is moved from one zone to another. Similarly we explore the impact of zones on the law requiring us to keep 2 days yomtov outside of Israel.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.11.02.364836v1?rss=1 Authors: Noel, J.-P. G., Paredes, R., Terrebonne, E., Feldman, J. I., Woynaroski, T. G., Cascio, C. J., Series, P., Wallace, M. Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogenous disorder predominantly characterized by social and communicative differences, but increasingly recognized to also alter (multi)sensory function. To face the heterogeneity and ubiquity of ASD, researchers have proposed models of statistical inference operating at the level of computations. Here, we attempt to bridge both across domains, from social to sensory, and levels of description, from behavioral computations to neural ensemble activity to a biologically-plausible artificial neural network, in furthering our understanding of autism. We do so by mapping visuo-tactile peri-personal space (PPS), and examining its electroencephalography (EEG) correlates, in individuals with ASD and neurotypical individuals during both a social and non-social context given that (i) the sensory coding of PPS is well understood, (ii) this space is thought to distinguish between self and other, and (iii) PPS is known to remap during social interactions. In contrast to their neurotypical counterparts, psychophysical and EEG evidence suggested that PPS does not remap in ASD during a social context. To account for this observation, we then employed a neural network model of PPS and demonstrate that PPS remapping may be driven by changes in neural gain operating at the level of multisensory neurons. Critically, under the anomalous excitation-inhibition (E/I) regime of ASD, this gain modulation does not result in PPS resizing. Overall, our findings are in line with recent statistical inference accounts suggesting diminished flexibility in ASD, and further these accounts by demonstrating within an example relevant for social cognition that such inflexibility may be due to E/I imbalances.

According to the CDC, in the United States, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience severe physical violence by an intimate partner in their lifetime. Every October, the country observes Domestic Violence Awareness Month to bring attention to the issue and unite those who are working across the country to stop it.    Domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence, is often thought of as an isolated or private issue. We tend to compartmentalize it as something that happens between two individuals, often behind closed doors. But in truth it is more common than one might think, and more connected to other critical issues, like lack of stable housing, poverty, systemic racism, police injustice, and more.     We'll explore these issues and connections in this new episode of the American Health Podcast. It features a dynamic conversation with three researchers and practitioners who are close collaborators: Michele Decker, a Bloomberg Associate Professor of American Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health; Charvonne Holliday, Assistant Professor at the Bloomberg School; and Janice Miller, a Bloomberg Fellow and licensed clinical social worker who is the Director of Programs and Clinical Services for House of Ruth Maryland.

On this episode of Ichimon Japan we ask: How do Japanese names work? Topics Discussed How people in Japan normally state their family name before their given name The complicated history of naming practices in Japan Commoners being prohibited from using family names during the Edo Period The Meiji era laws that mandated every Japanese person take a family name The reluctance of some people to take a family name during the Meiji Period The fact that many (most?) people with the surname Satō (佐藤) are probably not descended from samurai The fact that many commoners were given last names based on the geographical features of the area in which they lived The story of how the Furo (風呂) family supposedly got their family name from Minamoto no Yoshitsune The most common family names in Japan in 2019 How many Japanese family names there are The prevalence of rare Japanese last names The regional nature of some Japanese family names The convention of naming boys based on their birth order How it's easy to forget people's first names in Japan Some of the factors people in Japan consider when naming a baby Asking people in Japan about the kanji they use for their given name as a way to spark conversation The phenomenon of siblings having related names Interesting names in anime The practice of picking a baby name based on the way a name is written How much it usually costs to have a shrine pick a baby name for you What a seimeihandanshi is What it might cost you to have a seimeihandanshi pick a baby name for you A list outlining the most popular baby names in Japan of 2019 The Japanese naming convention of tōriji How shorter names have become common in Japan in recent years How female names that end in -ko used to be more common And much more! Note: Just for the sake of clarity, I'd like to point out that the story of the Furo family name did not occur during the Meiji Period (actually it probably never even occurred in the way it is normally told). However, because the story was introduced alongside the changes of the Meiji Period it's possible to be left with the impression that there was a connection there. There is no direct connection. The story was simply brought up as an example of the many interesting ways in which people in Japan acquired last names.

If you follow this show for some time, you know that one of the aims of this show is to help reconceptualize pain from a biomedical perspective and increase the awareness of a biopsychosocial approach to pain care. Chronic pain has long been recognized as an experience that can threaten your need for safety, both physically and psychologically, but what about feeling safe from a social context? Social context can be a powerful mediator and influence how pain is experienced. The social context of pain is such an important topic that there's even a movement to change the definition of pain from being an unpleasant sensory and an emotional experience to one that emphasizes pain as an experience associated with sensory, emotional, cognitive and social components. Joining us to talk about the pain in a social context is Dr. Kai Karos. Kai earned a Bachelor's and a Master's in Psychology at Maastricht University in the Netherlands. He then went on to complete a PhD where he investigated the effects of threatening social environments on the experience and communication of pain. Kai is working as a postdoctoral researcher investigating in the social learning of pain-related fear and avoidance. You will learn all about pain as a threat to the social self, including how pain interferes with the basic human needs such as the need for autonomy, the need to belong and the need for justice and fairness. Kai is a highly sought-after speaker regarding the social context of pain and one of a small handful of researchers globally who is investigating this important topic. This is a topic that does not receive enough media attention, so I'm excited to share this with you. Sign up for the latest episode at www.integrativepainscienceinstitute.com/podcasts/.

TS Episode Page: Statues in Social ContextOur conversation takes its inspiration from a months long study we implemented on the statues in Washington DC. In light of recent effects in places like Charlottesville, we were inspired to thrust ourselves into researching what is in our own backyard from a qualitative and quantitative angle. Who and what we choose as a society to monumentalize in stone can have a lasting effect on the conscious and unconscious well-being of everyone. Historical patterns of statue building have certainly favored certain demographics, genders, and religions. We are here to ask if those patterns have the potential to be altered.Support The Table Sessions today at: www.patreon.com/tablesessionsEpisode Links:Fabric[K] Design - https://fabrick-design.com/

Join Chris Scharen for a reflection on Christianity and whiteness recorded just a week after the tragic events of Charlottesville. Quote: "So on the one hand you have President Trump now articulating this one view speaking to this white population that's anxious about what their perception is that they're losing and saying I'm gonna give you your power back…and then on the other hand, you have a whole bunch of really coalitions of both people of color and progressive white people who are pushing against that…and one of the symbolic places where this has centered is public monuments." Chris Scharen is the Vice President of Applied Research and the Center for the Study of Theological Education at Auburn Theological Seminary of New York. He is the author of Someone's Got To Care: The Roots and Hip Hop as Prophetic Vocation and co-authored Christian Practical Wisdom: What it is, Why it matters and Fieldwork in Theology: Exploring the Social Context of God's Work in the World . He is currently writing After Laura, a book that is part memoir and part theological engagement with white racial identity.

Bishawjit Mallick investigates how coastal communities in Bangladesh perceive, react and adapt to a cyclone disaster, and what role migration and non-migration play in recovering devastated livelihoods Climatologists predict an increase in the frequency and intensity of cyclone disasters in tropical regions, particularly in Bangladesh. Nevertheless, effects of weather and climate events on societies might depend not only on the type and strength of the hazards, but also on the livelihood conditions of those affected. Accordingly, this presentation considers the following research questions: (a) How do coastal communities in Bangladesh perceive, react and adapt to a cyclone disaster, and why do they act so? (b) Which role do migration and non-migration play in recovering devastated livelihoods, and which lessons can be learned here for future adaptation planning? To answer these questions, I employ a mixed method (quantitative and qualitative) approach of empirical investigation. Based on a structured questionnaire, face-to-face interviews with 1555 households from 45 cyclone-affected communities have been conducted. Expert interviews and focus group discussions were also conducted to fill the information gaps that were not covered and/or collected in the household survey. Results show that (i) external interventions (relief and rehabilitation supports to the cyclone victims) are politicised and networked locally, which intensifies the process of social marginalisation, inhibits population displacements and destabilises the societal structure; (ii) the existing planning practices are a symbol of power exercises in the decision-making process of planning; (iii) the practices of seasonal labour migration and switching to another occupation are the best alternatives in order to stay behind instead of permanently migrating to a sub-standard slum environment in a city.

Dr. Tara Yosso discusses her experiences with the study of social context as it relates to communities of color, and provides helpful tips to graduate students and junior scholars with respect to publishing and working in academia

Released: 16 March 2016 Duration: 13 minutes, 25 seconds   Science does not occur in a vacuum, and this is doubly true in the case of SETI, which is said to suffer from a "giggle factor." How does social context shape the scientific research program of SETI? The public at times shows great interest in SETI, but this attention can cut two ways, both benefiting and harming the discipline. Nowhere is this more true than in funding for SETI research.   Credits: Written and Read by: Nick Nielsen Producer and VO: Paul Carr Music: Jason Robinson

Body image and sex….  a super sensitive topic for a lot of people. We’ll try to be gentle, but we’ll also be challenging you to do some serious thinking about your self-image and the expectations you’re bringing to your sexual intimacy. This is a really stressful topic, and guys walk on eggshells around it. Caleb likens the topic of sex and body image to a mousetrap. There is a lot of high-strung energy there, and if you don’t touch it everything is ok. But if you DO happen to touch it, it snaps and releases every bit of energy at once. No wonder men get nervous about the topic! The Problem of Sexual Self-Consciousness There is a wide range of research that supports the fact that holding a poor body image impacts my own sexual functioning negatively. There are a number of theories out there as to why this happens, but one of the more prominent theories is the issue of sexual self-consciousness.[i] Sexual self-consciousness is when your mind and thoughts are overly preoccupied with your body in a sexual context. When this happens, you direct your attention towards your appearance and away from the sexual pleasure which takes you far away from enjoying the moment, or the sense of togetherness and connection. Thoughts such as “Am I jiggling while we’re doing this? Does he think I’m too fat? He seems disinterested - Is that why he always has his eyes closed? We can only have sex with the lights off” show that you’re more focused on what you look like instead of being present with your spouse. Here is what the researchers found when looking at the issues of sexual self-consciousness:[ii] Women are significantly more likely to report appearance concerns than men. No surprise there. But here’s something to note: appearance concerns were positively related to sexual problems for both men and women.  So the concern is there for more women than men, but if the concern is there, it doesn’t matter what gender you are. The relationship between body shame and sexual pleasure and problems was mediated by sexual self-consciousness during physical intimacy. Men and women’s body shame was related to greater sexual self-consciousness, which in turn predicted lower sexual pleasure and sexual arousability. That just means that there is a chain of thought from shame to self-consciousness to reduced pleasure and arousability. Sexual self-consciousness affected men and women’s sexual arousability and pleasure to the same extent, but women’s body shame was a stronger predictor of sexual self-consciousness, so a higher vulnerability to body shame was there. So, it seems that body shame in a sexual context affects both men and women in the same manner, but women are more susceptible to being triggered into feeling sexually self-conscious which leads us to the question, why do women have such high levels of body shame? The Social Context of Body Shame and Poor Self-Image Body shame literally means feeling ashamed of your body and physical appearance. This comes from our culture’s emphasis on women’s beauty and physical appearance which leads to self-objectification. Self-objectification is the tendency to regard one’s physical self primarily in terms of appearance and to adopt an outsider’s perspective on the physical self.[iii] We can define our physical self in terms of health, self-care, comfort in our own skin, etc, but it’s difficult. My physical self does have an appearance, and all the marketing is about appearance. It is easy to buy into this idea that my physical self is entirely defined by my appearance rather than the healthier notion of asking myself if I feel comfortable in my own skin. Our culture teaches women that their sexual partners are mostly concerned about their physical attractiveness. Even in the context of a marriage with Christian values, wives carry this same belief that their husband is primarily concerned about her physical attractiveness. This heightens this sense that physical appearance is of primary imp...

Dave and Tamler talk about the human tendency to believe in a just world. Why do we have the belief? Does it make us less motivated to fight injustice? How does it connect to our beliefs about free will and punishment?

An Interview with Pat Bracken, MD, Ph.D. on Post-Modern Psychiatry and the Social Context of Trauma. Mental Help Net (www.mentalhelp.net) presents the Wise Counsel Podcast (wisecounsel.mentalhelp.net), hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D. In this episode of the Wise Counsel Podcast, Pat Bracken, MD, Ph.D., expresses concern that in the rush to become more empirical that resulted in the ascendency of the modern pharma-centered, biologically-anchored psychiatry paradigm, psychiatry has lost interest in addressing important philosophical and existential questions, such as the nature of a patient's experience of meaning (as in the meaning of life) and how meaning relates to the treatment of trauma. In Bracken's view modern psychiatry views mental diagnoses such as PTSD as individual problems to be fixed through application of various techniques such as medication and cognitive therapy. His own experience working with traumatized Ugandans in the wake of the Amin regime suggested differently to him, namely that in some cases it best to focus on restoring societal and cultural order. By repairing the fabric of reality for traumatized individuals, you help restore their sense of the meaningfulness of life in a way that cannot be accomplished by treating them in isolation.
