Subscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsWhat if the birth control you're taking every day is quietly changing your brain, your mood, your relationships—and even who you're attracted to? In this groundbreaking episode of hol+, Dr. Taz MD sits down with award-winning researcher and author Dr. Sarah Hill (This Is Your Brain on Birth Control) to reveal the shocking, little-known science of how hormonal contraception shapes not just your reproductive system, but your entire mind and body.From altered stress responses to shifts in attraction, depression risk in teens, and the controversial “bikini science” problem in medical research, Dr. Hill pulls back the curtain on decades of overlooked studies that every woman and parent should know about. She shares her own journey from evolutionary psychologist to outspoken women's health advocate, explaining why synthetic progestins are not the same as progesterone, how birth control affects your immune system, and why teenagers may be especially vulnerable to its mental health effects.If you're a woman in your teens, 20s, 30s, or 40s—or a parent guiding your daughter—this episode could change the way you think about hormone health, fertility, and your body's natural rhythms.Dr. Hill and Dr. Taz discuss:How birth control changes the brain's structure and functionThe difference between progesterone and synthetic progestins (and why it matters)Why “bikini science” has failed women in medical researchThe surprising link between birth control and partner attractionThe immune system's hidden connection to hormonal cyclingTeen mental health risks: depression, anxiety, and brain developmentSafer contraceptive choices and how to support your body if you use the pillHow nutrition and micronized progesterone might help offset side effectsThis conversation is more than just information — it's a wake-up call for how we study, prescribe, and support women's health.Topics Covered:Hormonal birth control's impact on the brainSynthetic hormones vs. bioidentical hormonesPartner choice and relationship satisfaction researchAutoimmunity and immune system differences in womenMental health risks for adolescent usersNon-hormonal birth control optionsNutritional and hormonal support strategiesConnect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.About Dr. Sarah E.

Why what isn't said can communicate more than what is spoken.We often speak in hints and half-truths, not because we can't be direct, but because subtlety protects our relationships. “An awful lot of the time, we don't just blurt out what we mean,” says Steven Pinker. “We hint, we wink, we beat around the bush — counting on our listener to read between the lines, connect the dots, catch our drift.”Pinker is the Johnstone Professor of Psychology at Harvard University, a celebrated linguist and cognitive scientist, and the author of twelve influential books. His latest, When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows: Common Knowledge and the Mysteries of Money, Power, and Everyday Life, explores how our shared understanding of awareness — what Steven refers to as common knowledge — and the way we signal it, governs everything from friendships to authority to negotiations. “Common knowledge is what ratifies or annuls social relationships, and that's why blurting something out that contradicts the assumptions of the relationship can blow everything up and be deeply awkward.” In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Pinker joins host Matt Abrahams to discuss why humans lean on innuendo, euphemism, and strategic ambiguity. They examine how culture and context shape what we hear, why our social fabric depends on more than just literal meaning, and offer practical ways to refine our communication by paying attention not just to what we say, but to what others know we know.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Steven PinkerSteven's Book: When Everyone Knows That Everyone KnowsEp.91 Um, Like, So: How Filler Words Can Create More Connected, Effective CommunicationEp.225 Speaking Fluent Internet: How Algorithms Are Changing the Way We Speak Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:23) - Why We Speak Indirectly (06:39) - The Role of Context (10:35) - Cross-Cultural Perspectives (11:51) - Hypocrisy as Social Glue (13:43) - Clarity, Conciseness, & Grace (17:07) - Metaphors We Live By (20:06) - The Final Three Questions (24:02) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.

Episode 101 is Luke's interview with Tina Warnock. This took place online in April 2025. Their conversation had a strong focus on vocal psychotherapy, including Tina's personal process of discovering this powerful therapeutic practice, and her current roles in developing training and research in this area. Tina Warnock is originally from Hertfordshire in England and has been based in Brighton, East Sussex since her undergraduate studies in Social Psychology in the late 1980s. She grew up playing the piano and in her late teens began singing and songwriting. The personal growth she experienced through singing with others and later vocal training led to a life-long interest in the connection between the voice and the self. Since qualifying as a music therapist in 2000, Tina gained extensive experience in a wide range of clinical settings including child and adolescent mental health, child development, special education, elderly mental health and learning disabilities. Her current practice includes vocal psychotherapy with people in cancer care, women with a history of trauma and abuse, and private practice with adults. In 2009 Tina established Belltree Music Therapy in Brighton (www.belltree.org.uk) which is now a thriving music therapy service. Between 2009 and 2013 she served on the BAMT board of trustees and was joint PR officer. Since 2016 she has focussed on developing the Austin Vocal Psychotherapy (AVPT) Distance Training Programme with Dr Diane Austin. In 2016 Tina invited Diane Austin to the UK to give some introductory workshops in vocal psychotherapy. The interest shown, combined with Tina's passion for the work led to her working intensively with Dr Austin over three 2-year programmes and in 2026 she will take on the role of lead trainer for this programme. Tina has been affiliated with Roehampton as a visiting lecturer and lecturer on the MA Music Therapy course. She regularly presents at music therapy conferences and has published several articles and book chapters on the voice and the self in music therapy. She is currently undertaking doctoral research at the Cambridge Institute of Music Therapy Research at Anglia Ruskin University, UK, investigating the impact of Austin Vocal Psychotherapy training on a music therapist's voice, sense of self and therapeutic practice.

Send us a text Have you ever wondered why breathing techniques that work for your friends leave you feeling more anxious? Or why everyone tells you to "just relax" when your mind won't stop spinning?After years of helping people manage anxiety, I've discovered something crucial: we've been treating anxiety like it's one-size-fits-all, when it's actually as unique as your fingerprint.In this episode, I break down the 4 distinct anxiety navigation styles:THE THINKER - You analyze everything, searching for the "why" behind every anxious moment. Your brain processes those 60,000 daily thoughts by dissecting each one.THE DOER - You can't sit still when anxiety hits. You clean, exercise, organize - anything to channel that energy into productive action.THE FEELER - You dive deep into emotions, absorbing the energy of everyone around you while processing feelings on a profound level.THE DREAMER - You escape into imagination, books, creativity, and rich inner worlds when anxiety becomes overwhelming.Here's the truth: there's nothing wrong with your natural way of handling anxiety. You're not broken because meditation doesn't work for you. You're simply working with a different operating system.WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:Research-backed strategies tailored to your specific navigation styleWhy traditional anxiety advice might not work for youThe 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique for ThinkersHow to channel anxiety energy purposefully as a Doer"Name it to Tame It" strategies for FeelersReality check techniques for DreamersHow to become the captain of your own ship toward calmer watersTAKE THE FREE QUIZ: https://forms.gle/D1g1p3S7PXEPUaj48Discover your personal anxiety navigation style and get a customized toolkit of strategies that actually work for your unique brain.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 Introduction - Why anxiety strategies fail2:30 The Thinker - Analysis and overthinking6:15 The Doer - Action-based anxiety management10:45 The Feeler - Emotional processing and empathy15:20 The dreamer - Creative escape and imagination19:30 Your personalized toolkit22:00 Taking the quiz and next stepsRemember: your anxiety isn't your enemy.

In this episode, Dr. Matthew Facciani explores how social psychology influences health beliefs and the spread of misinformation. The conversation delves into why people adopt certain nutrition or health beliefs so strongly, how identity and group membership shape our interpretation of evidence, and what makes us susceptible to false or misleading health claims. Dr. Facciani's interdisciplinary background (spanning neuroscience, psychology, and sociology) allows him to offer a unique evidence-informed perspective on these issues. The episode centers on understanding the social forces behind health-related attitudes and how we might improve communication and critical thinking in the face of rampant misinformation. This topic is highly relevant for health professionals and researchers because misinformation about nutrition, health, and medicine can lead to poor decisions, vaccine hesitancy, or harmful fad diets. By understanding the psychological drivers that cause people to cling to unscientific beliefs, practitioners can better address patients' concerns and correct false claims. Matthew Facciani is a postdoctoral researcher at The University of Notre Dame in the Computer Science and Engineering Department. He is an interdisciplinary social scientist with a background in neuroscience and psychology and holds a PhD in sociology. His research focuses on media literacy, misinformation, social networks, political polarization, identities, and artificial intelligence.

Truth in Learning: in Search of Something! Anything!! Anybody?
Clark and Matt decided to share a special episode from our sister cast, YOU OUGHTA KNOW: THE MOTIVATION SERIES. In this special episode, Matt is joined by the co-developer of Self-Determination Theory (SDT), Richard M. Ryan, to talk about all things motivation. Think of it as a primer on SDT. We hit the basics… What is motivation? What is SDT? What are the origins of SDT? The different types of motivation. Rewards and their impact on one's motivation. Of course, the famous three basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence, and relatedness). We discuss strategies one may take to either create environments to meet others' needs or to do it for oneself. What is well-being? How is well-being related to motivation? Is SDT universal? Is it culturally descriptive in all cases? And more! During our discussion on mindfulness, Rich refers to a recently published meta-analysis. The reference is: Donald, James N., Helena Nguyen, James H. Conigrave, Anya Johnson, Inmaculada Adarves-Yorno, Ryan Cheng, Anya Bedi, Kevin B. Lowe, Jessica L. Lyons, Emma K. Devine, Georg B.

British Journal of Management, 11111. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-8551.70009 Matt refers to a 1999 meta-analysis on the impact of rewards. That reference is: Deci, E. L., Koestner, R., & Ryan, R. M.

Do you massively over-estimate how much you can accomplish in any period of time? Do you struggle to work out how long it's going to take you to complete a particular project? Friend, same. Don't worry, though, because there are some well-recognised psychological reasons for that, and plenty of advice too. There's just one problem: when it comes to projects that are linked to your sense of self-worth, time management is even trickier, and the usual strategies might not cut it. Luckily for you, your imperfect buddy is here to throw you a lifeline.Here's a helpful article with some tips about how to get better at planning your time.References:Buehler, R., Griffin, D., and Ross, M. 1994: 'Exploring the "Planning Fallacy": Why People Underestimate Their Task Completion Times', Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 67/3: 366-381.Kahneman, D. and Tversky, A. 1977: 'Intuitive Prediction: Biases and CorrectiveProcedures', Technical Report PTR-1042-7746, Defense Advanced Research ProjectsAgency - Advanced Decision Technology, Decision Research, Eugene, OR.
Barbra is the founder and CEO of BuildingEase and Sustainable Performance Institute -- an industry leader whose innovative vision drives market transformation from public policy to professional practice. Her work focuses on the intersection of systems, processes and culture. With a diverse background of fine arts, social psychology and nearly 30 years in architecture and sustainability consulting, she brings a perspective that engages the human dynamics of decision-making and creative collaboration to technical work. Barbra has always been most interested in the how. Her advice for those who want to be effective working on sustainability in the built environment is to “develop enabling skills.” Because, she says, “Technical knowledge is necessary but insufficient. Any work in sustainability requires systems thinking, understanding of change dynamics and change management, communication, facilitation skills, and negotiation skills.”
What determines who you vote for? You probably think it's due to rational reasons. Economy. Sustainability. Immigration. Growth. But research shows that your choice of vote isn't as logical as you might expect. In fact, all of our votes can be swayed by a largely irrelevant factor. And this factor can be used to change what we eat, wear, drink and buy.

Ever worry that excellent performance might not be “good enough?” And maybe you've assumed that aiming for perfection is a safer bet? You're not alone, for what it's worth! But it's always interesting to get some actual data on this sort of thing, so a team of researchers conducted a series of studies to see if striving for perfection had benefits beyond aiming for excellence.

Psychologists Off The Clock: A Psychology Podcast About The Science And Practice Of Living Well
Think about the times you've assumed someone's behavior revealed exactly what they were thinking. Nicholas Epley, our guest for this episode, explains this as correspondence bias and, through his book Mindwise, teaches us about the concept of correspondence bias and explains how we often believe that a person's actions correspond directly to their mental state. You'll hear about his research into social cognition and how it reveals that while humans are generally adept at reading others, we frequently overestimate our accuracy. The episode also covers practical experiments on how engaging with strangers can significantly boost our happiness, despite our fears and misconceptions, and the importance of curiosity in overcoming social anxieties and making positive first impressions. Listen and Learn: How our unique “sixth sense” of mind reading, our ability to understand, predict, and connect with others' invisible thoughts, shapes human connection and survivalWhy our ability to read other people's minds is far less accurate than we think, and what makes understanding others such a difficult challengeWhy we often overestimate how well we understand those closest to us, and how even long-term partners are not as accurate at reading each other's thoughts and feelings as they believeWhat drives our brains to form first impressions in an instant, how overconfidence shapes the way we read others, and why moment-to-moment cues like facial expressions play a bigger role in social interactions than we often realize?How can you make a great first impression without overthinking body language or tricks, simply by staying curious and genuinely interested in the person you're talking to?How correspondence bias makes us assume people's actions reflect their true thoughts and feelings, why this can lead to misjudgments, and how showing confidence, curiosity, or kindness can positively influence how others respond to youCan striking up a conversation with a stranger boost happiness more than staying to yourself, even though we usually expect the interaction to go badly?Resources: Mindwise: Why We Misunderstand What Others Think, Believe, Feel, and Want: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780307743565 Nicholas' website: https://www.nicholasepley.com/About Nicholas EpleyNicholas Epley is the John Templeton Keller Distinguished Service Professor of Behavior Science and Director of the Center for Decision Research at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Welche Glaubenssätze bestimmen dein Leben? Gestützt, auf eine bald erscheinende Forschungsarbeit, untersuchen Atze und Leon das, was man in der Psychologie „Core Beliefs“ nennt. Gemeint sind Kernüberzeugungen zu unserem selbst. Wer bin ich? Wie schaue ich auf die Welt? Was verlangt man sich ab? Wo ist man gnädig? Eine gängige Theorie in der Psychologie ist, dass wir alle von Kernüberzeugungen – oder Glaubenssätzen – gesteuert werden. 20 verschiedene gucken sich die beiden an und eröffnen so vielleicht einen differenzierten Blick aufs eigene Selbst.

Episode Summary: From middle school cliques to corporate boardrooms, patterns of competition, division, and survival strategies among women persist. Here's the thing though: this isn't about a flaw in women; it's about a flawed system. In this episode of the Advancing Women Podcast, we explore the rise of Queen Bee Syndrome and the "Pick-Me" phenomenon, and what pop culture, psychology, and gender bias research reveal about why these patterns exist, and how we can challenge them. We dig deep into: The cultural roots of Queen Bee and Pick-Me behaviors Internalized sexism, patriarchal bargaining, and the male gaze The myth of women as each other's worst enemy Strategies to disrupt toxic narratives and build true solidarity It's time to move from scarcity to solidarity, from competition to coalition—and rewrite the narrative with the persisterhood at the center. Key Takeaways: “Pick-Me” behavior isn't vanity, it's often survival in biased systems. Queen Bee Syndrome isn't about women being mean, it's about navigating tokenism and structural barriers. Internalized sexism and societal “shoulds” fuel division. Systemic bias, NOT women, is the root issue. Solidarity is the antidote to scarcity. Call to Action: Let's stop shaming Queen Bees and Pick-Me girls and start fixing the systems that pit women against each other. Let's write a new chapter grounded in persisterhood, because together, we rise further.

In 1985, Coca-Cola changed its flavour. You probably know that this was a complete failure. ‘New Coke' was discontinued after just 79 days. But you probably don't know the true reason why New Coke failed. Many claim it was due to poor market research, but today's guest on Nudge, leading consumer behaviour expert Philip Graves, disagrees. Philip says New Coke failed not because the research was poor, but because market research is inherently flawed. Want to understand the biggest marketing blunder of the century?

Discussion Highlights:Post-Enlightenment era: Shift from fact-driven, technocratic politics to emotional, myth-based narratives; “new romanticism” as politics serving emotional needs.Tribal politics: Politics as moralized conflict; unconditional leader loyalty; democratic norms waived as “necessary” in existential struggle; disinformation and conspiracy theories as tools of tribal mobilization.Free speech charade: How authoritarian leaders and tech moguls exploit “free speech” rhetoric to delegitimise content moderation; selective censorship in global social media platforms.Hungary's 2026 elections: Fidesz's entrenched media control; opposition lead in polls amid corruption scandals and economic woes; risk of electoral-system tweaks if the gap widens.Ukraine-fear campaign: Government-backed narratives linking EU/NATO enlargement to economic decline; pervasive anti-Ukrainian sentiment despite public sympathy and solidarity efforts.Migration narratives: Contradictions in anti-migration rhetoric versus labour needs in German-owned Hungarian automotive plants; persistence of sovereignty-based appeals.Budapest Pride mobilisation: Over 200,000 participants signalling civil-society resilience; government attempts to cast Pride as a threat to “family values.”Europe's response: Internal EU disruptors like Hungary; need for flexible, united EU measures (e.g., qualified-majority votes); potential leverage via conditionality on EU funds.About Péter KrekóPéter Krekó (born 20 March 1980 in Budapest) is a Hungarian social psychologist and political scientist.

“Misinformation spreads like a virus,” explained Sander van der Linden, Ph.D., a Professor of Social Psychology in Society and Director of the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Lab in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cambridge. He asked the question, “Is there a way to inoculate or immunize people?” His award-winning book Foolproof: Why Misinformation Infects Our Minds and How to Build Immunity explores this topic using decades of research and on-the-ground experience advising governments and tech companies. He wrote the book to devise a new paradigm to help readers understand and defend themselves against a worldwide information infodemic. Van der Linden's biography describes his body of research as looking at “how people process (mis)information, how it spreads in online networks, and how we can most effectively prebunk and inoculate people against false information.” He served on the World Health Organization's (WHO) infodemic working group. He has won numerous awards for his research on human judgment, communication, and decision-making, including the Rising Star Award from the Association for Psychological Science (APS). He co-developed Bad News, an award-winning fake news game designed to improve people's ability to spot manipulation techniques! This is an very important interview.

Surprisingly, many older adults approaching retirement feel a sense of dread – even when they have sufficient financial security and are reasonably healthy. In a project sponsored by Harvard Business School, Teresa Amabile's research team spent a decade researching retirement to understand people's attitudes toward, decisions about, and experiences of retiring. She and her colleagues, Lotte Bailyn (MIT), Marcy Crary (Bentley University), Douglas T. Hall, and Kathy Kram (both of Boston University), interviewed 120 knowledge workers in successful companies, including some who were still working, some who had retired, and some who were about to enter the retirement transition. The 14 people approaching retirement in the near term became the “Stars” of this research because they agreed to be interviewed multiple times as they finished their careers, officially retired,In this episode, you'll discover: The “work” of retiring and how to approach the necessary tasks in a way that increases the likelihood of a smooth transition into a satisfying retirement life. The major identity challenges people face in retirement, and some creative ways you can meet those challenges. The upheavals to personal and professional relationships that can occur during this life transition and how you can maintain and build a mutually supportive relationship network post-retirement. About Teresa M. Amabile: Teresa M. Amabile is the Edsel Bryant Ford Professor of Business Administration, Emerita, at Harvard Business School. Her most recent book, Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You, presents insights from a decade of research on the psychological, social, and life restructuring challenges of retiring. Her colleagues Lotte Bailyn, Marcy Crary, Douglas T. Hall, and Kathy E. Kram collaborated on that work. Before turning her research interests into retirement transition, Teresa devoted over 40 years to researching creativity and innovation. Extending that work, she studied how everyday life inside organizations can influence people and their creativity by affecting inner work life - the confluence of motivation, emotions, and perceptions. The findings of that research appear in her coauthored book with Steven Kramer, The Progress Principle: Using Small Wins to Ignite Joy, Engagement, and Creativity at Work. Teresa's work has appeared in over 100 scholarly journal articles and a variety of other outlets, including Harvard Business Review. She has presented her work to audiences in a variety of settings, including Pixar, Genentech, TEDx Atlanta, Apple, Pfizer, and the World Economic Forum in Davos. She consults with companies and nonprofits, and has served on several boards. She has received a variety of awards, including the Distinguished Scholar Award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Academy of Management's Organizational Behavior Division, and election to the 2024 Thinkers50 Hall of Fame.

Bonnie Buckner, PhD, is the founder and CEO of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery, where she teaches people how to use dreaming and imagery for personal growth, problem-solving, and enhanced creativity. Buckner has used dreamwork as the basis for her work as an executive and creative coach for over twenty years. In addition she continues to serve as an Executive Coach and Senior Fellow at George Washington University's Center for Excellence in Public Leadership and Co-Faculty Director of their eCo Leadership Coaching certification program. Discover your dreams, find your purpose, and decode your subconscious. In The Secret Mind, creative dreamwork expert Dr. Bonnie Buckner teaches you how to use your nighttime dreams as a practical tool for not only solving your challenges, but also developing your fullest potentials and living a life of purpose. Harnessing the power of dreams has been Buckner's life's work, and what she has found in doing dreamwork with executives and creatives across the globe is this: We all have a "secret mind"—the part of our brain that has all the tools we need to solve our own problems—and that "secret mind" can be accessed through your dreams. In The Secret Mind, Buckner shares her method for translating the mystery of dreams so that you have access to your own inner powerhouse for transformation. You will learn how to:—strengthen the muscle for remembering and understanding your dreams—identify patterns and unresolved issues in dreams—use the waking dream method to re-enter dreams to address unfinished business in your waking life Drawing from neurobiology and social psychology, The Secret Mind presents dreaming as a practice for both personal and global development. With Buckner's simple tools and exercises, a more beautiful, creative world is just a dream away.

Unlock the Power of Persuasion: Discover "The Elephant Persuasion Principle" Podcast! Ever wondered how to influence people effortlessly, build unbreakable trust, and close deals like a pro? Imagine having a memory as sharp as an elephant's—never forgetting a name, a face, or a crucial detail that seals the connection. Recall like an elephant and watch your relationships soar! Elephants aren't just massive; they're memory masters! With brains weighing a whopping 5 kg (11 lbs - they excel at recall for survival and social bonds. Think about Lakshmi, the elephant in India who, after years of abuse, retaliated against her tormentor in June 2024. It's a stark reminder: elephants remember pain, loyalty, and everything in between. Now, apply that to your life - remember names like an elephant and you'll persuade like never before! Why is remembering names a game-changing people skill? It shows respect and genuine interest, sparking trust and rapport. In business, it supercharges networking and leadership. Socially, it cements friendships and nails first impressions. A 2016 Journal of Social Psychology study proves it: using someone's name boosts your warmth and competence, making you instantly more likable. It's not just polite; it's persuasive 101! But what's happening in your brain? When you hear your name, your attention spikes (like "Great job, Sarah!"), the amygdala lights up with emotion, and the prefrontal cortex evaluates the feel-good factor. It personalizes interactions, validates feelings, and follows social norms that make folks like you more. Here are two simple techniques: 1. Repeat and Use the Name Immediately: Say "Nice to meet you, Sarah!" and weave it in again: "So, Sarah, what's your story?" Repetition builds brain pathways, shifting names from your short-term memory to long-term recall. Example: At a networking bash, greet John with "John, awesome to connect - what's your passion, John?" Boom - name locked in! 2. Associate with a Visual Image: Link the name to a wild picture. For Rose, envision a Rose coming out of her ear. Your brain loves visuals, leveraging the hippocampus for recall. Want more insights into recalling names, increasing recall and 4 other techniques to instantly connect to anyone. Tune into The Elephant Principle Of Persuasion Podcast. Whether you're in sales, leadership, or just want to ace social scenes, this podcast turns you into a persuasion powerhouse.

This week on That Tech Pod, Laura and Kevin sit down with Emily Chase Coleman, a leading voice in higher ed analytics, to talk about how data, AI, and shifting policy are transforming the college experience.We kick things off with a look at predictive analytics in enrollment and financial aid. Emily shares the most common misconceptions schools still have about AI, and how generative tools are forcing colleges to rethink academic integrity, fairness, and even the rules around who gets to use AI, and when.As the conversation turns to policy and student loans, Emily weighs in on recent headlines about aid cuts and loan forgiveness battles. She explains how these changes are already affecting how institutions plan for the future, and why equity needs to be at the center of it. We also talk about cybersecurity and student privacy. With ransomware attacks on the rise and more schools moving to the cloud, Emily talks about how institutions can balance being data-driven with protecting student information. Spoiler: most aren't investing enough in cyber defenses. We also look ahead to the next decade. What does the “smart campus” of 2035 look like? How can colleges move from being data-aware to truly data-informed? And if Emily could change just one thing about how universities use data today, what would it be?Emily Chase Coleman is a visionary in higher education analytics, reshaping how institutions use data to drive strategy. As the Co-founder and CEO of HAI Analytics Inc., she helps colleges and universities make informed, data-backed decisions about enrollment, financial aid, and student success. With over 20 years in higher education leadership and a PhD in Social Psychology and Statistics from Cornell, Emily is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between data science and institutional strategy.At HAI Analytics, Emily is leading the charge in making predictive modeling and data visualization tools more accessible to university decision-makers.

An episode that is not about inflexibility—it's about emotional safety, sensory regulation, and being authentically ourselves in a world that often feels chaotic!In Episode 147 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 8 of Autistic Culture: Predictably Comforting, with special guest Daria Brown, author of We Chose Play: Raising an Autistic Child to Thrive and Feel Understood.Daria Brown has a Master's degree in Personality and Social Psychology. She has worked in the field of research, evaluation, and education for over 30 years at universities, not-for-profits, and government.Together, they discuss why predictability, routine, and familiarity are not only comforting but essential in autistic lives.This episode is especially meaningful for autistic listeners, families, and advocates who want to gain a deeper understanding of why consistency matters so deeply in autistic culture. Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic Brains Crave PredictabilityOur nervous systems seek regulation over novelty. Familiar patterns reduce overwhelm and foster inner peace.* Routine as Emotional SafetyAutistic routines—like watching the same show, eating familiar foods, or repeating daily rituals—aren't rigid. They're tools for stability, helping manage emotional and sensory overload.* Cultural Examples of Comforting Predictability* Thomas the Tank Engine's structured stories* Dino Nuggets' consistent texture and taste* Andy Warhol's daily green underwear and soup-can art* Repetition as a Strength, Not a SymptomFrom stimming to re-watching favorite shows, repetition brings grounding comfort. It supports emotional regulation and fosters creativity.
In a world increasingly marked by polarisation and fractured discourse, how can we truly hear each other?Join us in the Great Room of the RSA for a vital conversation between Emily Kasriel, journalist, broadcaster, and author of the new book Deep Listening, and Professor Paul Dolan, behavioural scientist and author of the new book Beliefism. Together, they'll explore the transformative power of deep listening and belief systems in shaping how we communicate, understand, and disagree.Emily's pioneering work on ‘deep listening' reveals how active, empathetic engagement can break down barriers and build trust. Paul's latest research into belief structures challenges us to understand how and why we cling to our views – and what it takes to listen to different perspectives.This event brings two powerful thinkers into dialogue, sharing fresh perspectives and practical strategies to foster respectful, productive conversations in divided times. As we navigate increasingly complex social and political terrain, this is a timely and urgent opportunity to reflect on what it means to connect meaningfully across difference.Speakers:Emily Kasriel, journalist, broadcaster, and authorProfessor Paul Dolan, behavioural scientist and authorChair:Sonia Livingstone OBE FBA, Professor of Social Psychology, Department of Media and Communications at LSE, author and Director of Digital Futures for ChildrenDonate to the RSA: https://thersa.co/3ZyPOEaBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/ueembFollow RSA on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thersaorg/Like RSA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theRSAorg/Listen to RSA Events podcasts: https://bit.ly/35EyQYUJoin our Fellowship: https://www.thersa.org/fellowship/join
Professor Sander van der Linden's fascination with misinformation traces back to his own family's scars under Nazism, a regime that perfected propaganda so insidious it seeped invisibly into everyday life. In his award-winning book Foolproof, van der Linden argues that misinformation is a psychological virus, spreading through minds the way a biological virus hijacks cells. From Third Reich leaflets to modern algorithms, the tools have evolved, but the core infection remains the same: exploiting our mental shortcuts and illusions of truth. As the Capitol riots show, unchecked lies can kill. Van der Linden's mission is urgent: to build psychological vaccines that inoculate society from misinformation before deepfakes, AI, and data-hungry platforms unleash the next generation of invisible propaganda and push us past the point of no return. Guest bio: Professor Sander van der Linden is a Cambridge social psychologist and award-winning author of Foolproof. He pioneered the concept of “psychological vaccines” against misinformation, advises governments and tech companies worldwide, and his research has shaped global strategies to combat fake news, conspiracy theories, and the growing threat of deepfakes. Van der Linden is the Professor of Social Psychology in Society in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cambridge and Director of the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Lab.

The law is out of date on topics regarding how the mind works and how much social influence can sway people to do and believe things that are not common sense. Dr. Cutler has done cutting edge work in forensics and law enforcement analysis. He serves at Fielding Graduate University as both a Professor and Program Director. Social Psychology is one of the pillars of the Mental Health profession. In our current world, so many people are being influenced to believe things that are utterly absurd and follow leaders who are unqualified and even pathological. One especially important area of his work is testifying in courts about false confessions made in police interrogations. Cutler has held research grants from the National Science Foundation of the United States and the Social Science & Humanities Research Council of Canada. He has worked on many publications, including Editor and Author of The APA Handbook of Forensic Psychology, the Encyclopedia of Psychology and Law, Reform of Eyewitness Identification Procedures, Conviction of the Innocent: Lessons from Psychological Research, and five other books.

I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it. Does priming work, or is it a myth?

In this episode of The Kirk Cameron Show, Kirk sits down with his son James for another Dangerous Conversation—this time diving deep into the powerful influence of music on our emotions, behavior, and even our spiritual lives. They explore groundbreaking studies from McGill University and the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology showing how music can literally alter brain chemistry—releasing dopamine or cortisol depending on what you're listening to. From rap to classical, worship to feel-good pop, Kirk and James reflect on how their own music choices have impacted their mindset, relationships, and faith over time. Plus, they share amazing insights about the spiritual origin of music, its role in Scripture, and how melodies—even from childhood—stick with us for life. You'll also hear about how God may have designed music to unite people and help us remember His truth.
