MORRIE SCHWARTZ (Dec 1916- Nov 1995, passed from ALS at age 78), the beloved subject of the classic, multimillion-copy number one bestseller "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom, posthumously releases a new book with his Son/Editor Rob Schwartz called "The Wisdom of Morrie" (April 2023). In his new book, Morrie explores life questions in a profound, poetic, and poignant masterpiece of living and aging joyfully and creatively. Later life can be filled with many challenges, but it can also be one of the most beautiful and rewarding passages in anyone's lifetime. In his new book, the author draws on his experiences as a social psychologist, teacher, father, friend, and role model to offer us a road map to navigate our futures. He was a professor of Sociology and Social Psychology for 30+ years at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, before retiring at age 70. Morrie wrote on a variety of topics. His groundbreaking 1954 book (with Alfred Stanton), “The Mental Hospital”, made him a superstar in psychology and helped him earn a full-time professorship as his first university position. Morrie was dedicated to social justice and valuing human beings.

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning, Razib talks to Adam Mastroianni, who runs the Experimental History Substack. Mastroianni was the inaugural guest on the Intrinsic Perspective podcast, hosted by Erik Hoel, where they discussed his post, The rise and fall of peer review - Why the greatest scientific experiment in history failed, and why that's a great thing (see also his follow-up, The dance of the naked emperors). Mastroianni opened a can of worms; the post has more than 800 likes and more than 330 comments. Razib asks Mastroianni about the fiercely positive and negative reactions to his contention that modern peer review has outlived its utility. They also unveil the historically contingent origins of the practice in the mid-20th century, and how it came to be seen as a holy enterprise necessary to science. Both agree that scientific publishing needs a paradigm shift; a topic that Razib tackled in 2014 with the Genome Biology comment Dragging a scientific publishing into the 21st century. Razib and Mastroianni then discuss Experimental History, a Substack devoted to social psychology and meta-science. Why has Mastroianni decided to devote a substantial amount of energy to this project, as opposed to just publishing in journals?  Experimental History touches on some of the experimental social psychology research Mastroianni has been involved in, but it also focuses on some of the generally understood findings in psychology and neuroscience, and why they're true or false. In a world of academic science saturated with Ph.D. level researchers, Razib and Mastroianni explore the communication possibilities inherent in the Substack model. Finally, Mastroianni unpacks his opinion that even many of the robust statistically significant findings in social psychology don't matter. He believes that the lack of a single theory blocks proper understanding in psychology, and many of the results in his field are both uninteresting and fail to lead to a nontrivial increase in knowledge.

In today's episode we are in conversation with dating and relationship expert Dr Kathrine Bejanyan.According to research, nearly half of US adults say dating has gotten harder for most people in the last 10 years. This has caused more than half of young people in America not to have a romantic partner, and the majority of those dating to express dissatisfaction with their romantic lives due to several negative experiences.Katherine talks about the challenges of today's dating world, common mistakes that people make and the frequent phenomenon of 'ghosting'. Dr. Kathrine Bejanyan  runs a private therapy practice focusing on relationships, which has helped thousands of people develop a healthier and happier love life. Through individual or couple counselling, which usually takes 8 to 16 weeks, she shows her clients how dating and relationships really work and how they can use this newfound knowledge to create long-term romantic relationships they draw strength and love from, not pain and confusion. Previously,   she worked as a Relationship Consultant at The Executive Club of St. James's, a high-end matchmaking agency where she helped clients gain a better understanding of themselves, their partner(s) and learn how to form true intimacy within their romantic relationships. She has a Master's in Counselling Psychology and a Ph.D. in Social Psychology, concentrating on romantic relationships. She is also an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy with a license as a Marriage Family Therapist from the US. Dr. Kathrine is also a highly sought-after speaker on relationships, and she has written for several magazines, including Huffington Post, as an expert on relationships.

It's more difficult than ever to separate fact from journalistic or political fiction. The idea of “relative truth” has permeated almost every discussion, making it challenging to get straight answers to even some of the most basic questions. Does cholesterol matter or not? Are HPV vaccines safe or too risky? While media spin has always been a problem, it's reached breaking point, and the majority of us feel disillusioned and frustrated. This week's guest offers advice on how to identify and fight misinformation. Listen and learn:  How a small lie wrapped in hard truths can be much more dangerous than a blatant falsehood  Why men are leading the charge when it comes to conspiracy theories How system justification theory can influence misinformation  Whether a small lie is OK if it's for a good cause Links Sander's site ABOUT OUR GUEST Dr. Sander van der Linden is a social psychology professor and Director of the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Lab.

In this week's Dissidents podcast, cohosts Mike and Elizabeth talk about the lure of unfalsifiable arguments over testable scientific data, particularly when motives like maintaining positive self-worth or preserving group membership overtake accuracy motives.  The authors of the article we will discuss conducted 4 studies on religion and political ideological beliefs and speculate about whether unfalsifiability may lead people and societies to continually make truth defying decisions. https://ilvalues.org/ References: Friesen, J.

Welcome back to another exciting episode! In this episode, Kristy and Mitchell trace how embodiment of various social roles unlocks new genetic potential as our bodies respond to new environments by synthesizing proteins that we had been unable to before. Further, we explore how new environments stimulate neuroplasticity allowing us to reshape our cognitive structures and think about the world in new and different ways. In short, our conclusion is that major life events do not just change a person metaphysically or philosophically, they actually change a person down to the molecular level. How fascinating! Kristy Bohan is a cofounder and contributor to The Cognitive Dissonance Podcast. Kristy received her BS in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry in 2018, and an MS in Psychology in 2020 and began working on her certification in Behavior Analysis. She serves clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities such as Autism Spectrum Disorder as a behavior consultant in Oregon. Kristy takes a behavior analytic perspective to life and uses this philosophy to inform her work and her day to day life. Kristy believes in psychology as a hard, natural science. Mitchell Croot is one of the founders and contributors to The Cognitive Dissonance Podcast. A father of four, a US Army veteran, and a high school educator, Mitchell holds a BA in History with a minor in Secondary Education from Catawba College and an MA in History from the University of North Carolina in Charlotte.

The spread of misinformation is of increasing interest to researchers around the world. It's been tied to the 2016 and 2020 US elections, Brexit, the COVID pandemic, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Some have called the glut of misinformation a pandemic in its own right. A researcher at Cambridge University suggests that, as with other pandemics, the solution just might be a vaccine. That's the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories with guest Sander van der Linden. Van der Linden is 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. His research interests center around the psychology of human judgment, communication, and decision-making. In particular, he's interested in the influence and persuasion process and how people gain resistance to persuasion (by misinformation) through psychological inoculation. That's the focus of his new book, Foolproof: Why Misinformation Infects Our Minds and How to Build Immunity.

SHOW NOTES What is the dent you wish to make in the world? I'm here to figuring out the next evolution of the world. I'm obsessed with finding the edges of my potential. I want to empower other people to do the same, to really feel like they're capable of more than they probable believe that they can. Episode Key Takeaway Listeners will better understand the art and science of happiness. They'll start to define or refine their own definitions of happiness (and success). They can start experiencing more happiness now, instead of waiting for ‘happily ever after'. Instead of feeling like a victim of circumstances and getting rocked off their centre when life is in chaos, they'll be more able to maintain a positive attitude and have the capacity to lead with clarity and be present with those who rely on them.

Do you find yourself guessing what others are feeling or thinking around you? Do you feel like your partner expects you to know what they want without having to tell you? Do you find yourself feeling out of sync with your partner and on different wavelengths?  Having to read someone's mind can be problematic in relationships because it can lead to misunderstandings and hurt feelings.

Mastery (2012) by Robert Greene Read and listen to "Mastery" on Amazon! We're very excited to announce our books “Sexual Magnetism,” “The WASM Dating Handbook” and “Secrets of Sensual Massage” are now available! Follow these links to get your copies of "Sexual Magnetism," "The WASM Dating Handbook" and "Secrets of Sensual Massage" on Amazon.com. Want more great books? Check out our MUST READ LIST! Overview of “Mastery” A very brief description of “Mastery” Through the stories of dozens of highly successful famous people in many different fields, Greene has put together a powerful program teaching us how to achieve mastery in one's life. Mastery can be thought of as the unique way each of us can fully actualize our potential for greatness and enjoy a fulfilling life. What Greene sets out to do / Purpose of the book Greene's overarching thesis is to challenge the conventional notion of "genius" as a genetic gift bestowed upon a handful of individuals. He believes "genius" is acquirable, and all masters, regardless of intrinsic ability, go through roughly the same process on their path towards mastery. The intended audience of the book / Who will benefit most People who love history People who love stories of success and accomplishment People who enjoy having their ass kicked (in a good way) People who want to become more powerful, more successful and happier People who want to hear a self-help book that shares truth - not fluff Who probably WON'T like this book? People who need to believe that all the great accomplishments in our history were from superhuman “geniuses”...so they don't have to take responsibility for their own lives People who want a easy, feel-good self-help book that won't require them to make any real changes to their lives Lazy people (seriously, 7 years to get good at something??? BS!) Creationists How does this book specifically benefit Men? In the modern era, regular men are at a disadvantage because they're easy to control. If you don't set yourself apart it's easy to become manipulated and jerked around by the powerful influence of culture, industry, political groups, media, our employers, our neighbors and even our friends and family. Mastery provides a road map for men to find their individuality. As leaders in our families and our communities it's critical for Men to know who we are, what we're passionate about and where we're going in our lives! Is this book Easy, Average or Difficult to read? / How long is it? Easy to read, but NOT easy to implement! Also it's going to take some time to digest the material in the book. Think about this more like a textbook for a class and less like the traditional self-help book. 354 pages, Audiobook: 16 hrs, 9mins What are the overall book reviews?Is the book well-known? Popular? Significant? Amazon Books: 7385 Ratings - 4.7 Stars Kindle Ranking: #23 in Social Psychology & Interactions #27 in Motivational Business Management #99 in Motivational Self-Help Audible: 12,154, 4.7 stars Ranking: #8 in Social Psychology #16 in Business Motivation & Self-Improvement #493 out of All Audible Books Book-To-Movie Translation N/A Bio of Robert Greene Grew up in Los Angeles.

Fuse the intuitive with the rational : mastery.

The Bible has a lot to say about why we should pray and how powerful prayer is. But did you know that academicians study prayer to see how it effects the person praying? My guest on this podcast is my son, David Newman, who has a PhD in Social Psychology and has recently published a paper about prayer, studied from a social science perspective. The implications for Christians are varied and quite helpful. Recommended Resource: David Newman's Website

This week my guest is Sander Van Der Linden, Professor of Social Psychology at the University of Cambridge where he has also directed the Social Decision-Making Lab since 2016. In this episode we explore Sander's latest publication, Foolproof, in which he details the many ways in which humans fall prey to misinformation and ways in which we can resist such persuasion. This primarily takes us on a tour of his work around “pre-bunking,” an experience that gives one an increased resistance to misinformation almost by acting as a mental vaccine.

What a wild ride of an episode! In this one, Kristy and I cover a very wide range of topics relating to social groups and their influence on individual psychology from prisons to military service to cults to social media mobbing. There's too much to type out, so you'll just have to listen! Kristy Bohan is a cofounder and contributor to The Cognitive Dissonance Podcast. Kristy received her BS in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry in 2018, and an MS in Psychology in 2020 and began working on her certification in Behavior Analysis. She serves clients with intellectual and developmental disabilities such as Autism Spectrum Disorder as a behavior consultant in Oregon. Kristy takes a behavior analytic perspective to life and uses this philosophy to inform her work and her day to day life. Kristy believes in psychology as a hard, natural science. Mitchell Croot is one of the founders and contributors to The Cognitive Dissonance Podcast. A father of four, a US Army veteran, and a high school educator, Mitchell holds a BA in History with a minor in Secondary Education from Catawba College and an MA in History from the University of North Carolina in Charlotte. His interests include colonial North America, the American Revolution, culture and cultural transmission, philosophy, psychology, and music.

Mind control, undue influence, brainwashing - that all sounds like some Hollywood fiction fantasy. But cult expert Dr. Steven Hassan says these are real and anybody could fall into the culty traps. He shares his personal story from the 70's when he found himself dropping out of college, emptying his bank account and being trained to kill. His trap, he says, is that he thought he was too smart to fall for cult stuff. In fact, “cults” are everywhere - some harmful and some aren't so much, but they all share elements. If you ever thought that yoga “guru”, invasive company, tight social club or even romantic partner has an awful lot of influence...maybe you're right. In fact, Hassan says we are living in an age of influence and most of it is digital. If you have questions or guest suggestions, Ali would love to hear from you. Call or text her at (323) 364-6356.

Influence comes down to a person's level of authority. When someone is perceived as having power, status, and worth, others readily follow them and comply with them.Authority isn't just a matter of position. It's also a personal quality.When people attempt to develop their influence or authority, they tend to focus on learning social skills and changing their behaviors around speech and body language.But my guest would say that authority isn't about what you learn but who you are, and that once you establish the right lifestyle and mindset, influential behaviors will emerge as a natural byproduct.Chase Hughes is a behavioral analyst who trains both military operatives and civilians. Today on the show, Chase unpacks the five factors that measure someone's level of authority and produce composure, a state which resides between posturing and collapse. We talk about how so much of authority comes down to having your stuff together, why you should become your own butler, and what Andy Griffith has to teach about leadership. We also talk about the things that kill your authority, and how not to be influenced by false authority.After the show is over, check out the show notes at aom.is/authorityResources Related to the EpisodeChase's books:Six-Minute X-Ray: Rapid Behavior ProfilingThe Ellipsis Manual: Analysis and Engineering of Human BehaviorChase's appMilgram experiment"The Social Psychology of Imitated Jaywalking"Chase's Authority Self-Assessment MatrixAoM Article: The 5 T's of Mastering the Art of PoiseBecoming a Well-Differentiated LeaderAoM Article: Never Complain; Never ExplainSmoke-filled room experimentAoM Article: 8 Reasons You're Hardwired for SheepnessThe 34 Behaviors That Will Kill Your AuthorityConnect With ChaseHughesChase's websiteChase on IGChase's YouTube channel and The Behavioral Panel YouTube channelChase on Twitter 

Author Paula Paajanen discusses the article, "Keeping Apart on the Playground: Construction of Informal Segregation on Public Playgrounds in Multiethnic Neighborhoods," published in the March 2023 issue of Social Psychology Quarterly.

Quote -  “Successful people don't fear failure but understand that it's necessary to learn and grow from.” - Robert Kiyosaki "Fail it till you nail it" is a concept that encourages individuals to embrace failure as a positive and necessary aspect of the learning process. This mindset suggests that instead of fearing failure, individuals should strive to fail more frequently, as it leads to growth and eventual success.The podcast explores the various benefits of failing, such as increased resilience, learning from mistakes, and a greater appreciation for success. Failure is not something to be ashamed of but a valuable opportunity to learn and improve.I also emphasize the importance of taking risks and stepping outside of one's comfort zone, as this can lead to new experiences and growth. Fear of failure often holds people back, but by embracing failure and viewing it as a stepping stone rather than an obstacle, individuals can unlock their full potential.The podcast also discusses the importance of perseverance and how failure can fuel a drive to keep trying until success is achieved. Failure is a natural and necessary part of the journey toward success. By adopting a "fail it till you nail it" mindset, individuals can overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.Overall, the podcast encourages listeners to embrace failure as a positive and necessary part of the learning process and to view it as a catalyst for growth and success.

Today, Nate is joined by social psychologist Jonathan Haidt. Professor Haidt is one of the leaders in the understanding of human biases and predispositions, and how they affect cooperation, communication, and change-making. Human psychology and behavior is at the root of the larger predicament that humanity faces. Is it possible to use a better understanding of our own psychology to change our behavior and the behavior of future generations? Is social media hijacking the vulnerabilities of our social-psychological nature? How can we redesign systems technologies and systems to bring out the better sides of our natures, instead of amplifying the worst?  About Jonathan Haidt: Jonathan Haidt is a social psychologist at New York University's Stern School of Business. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1992. Haidt's research examines the intuitive foundations of morality, and how morality varies across cultural and political divisions. Haidt is the author of The Happiness Hypothesis (2006) and of The New York Times bestsellers The Righteous Mind (2012) and The Coddling of the American Mind (2018, with Greg Lukianoff). In 2019 he was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Since 2018 he has been studying the contributions of social media to the decline of teen mental health and the rise of political dysfunction. He is currently writing two books: Kids In Space: Why teen mental health is collapsing, and Life After Babel: Adapting to a world we can no longer share.
