The Halo Effect
18/10/202153 min<p>In 1978, Judy, Lyn and Donna Ulrich were driving to a volleyball game when their Ford Pinto was hit from behind by a van. The Pinto caught fire, and the three teenagers died. This week, we revisit a 2020 episode with a former Ford insider who played a key role in weighing the risks associated with the Pinto. And we consider what his story tells us about a question we all face: is it possible to fairly evaluate our past actions when we know how things turned out?</p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

Being Kind to Yourself
11/10/202152 min<p>Self-criticism is often seen as a virtue. But psychologist <a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/kristin_neff">Kristin Neff</a> says there’s a better path to self-improvement — self-compassion. She says people who practice self-compassion are more conscientious and more likely to take responsibility for their mistakes.</p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

When You Need It To Be True
4/10/202154 min<p>When we want something very badly, it can be hard to see warning signs that might be obvious to other people.

Passion Isn't Enough
27/09/202148 min<p>Many Americans feel an obligation to keep up with political news. But maybe we should be focusing our energies elsewhere. In this episode from 2020, political scientist <a href="https://as.tufts.edu/politicalscience/people/faculty/hersh">Eitan Hersh</a> says there's been a rise in "political hobbyism" in the United States. We treat politics like entertainment, following the latest updates like we follow our favorite sports teams. Instead, he says, we should think of politics as a way to acquire power and persuade our neighbors to back the issues we support.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Introducing My Unsung Hero
24/09/20213 min<p>Longtime Hidden Brain listeners know that for years, we've thanked an unsung hero at the end of every episode. Now, we're launching a new show inspired by that tradition. Each week, we'll share a short story about a moment when one person helped another in a time of need. And we'll show you how these acts of heroism — some big, some small — transformed someone's life. </p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Group Think
20/09/202150 min<p>How do the groups you identify with shape your sense of self? Do they influence the beer you buy? The way you vote? Psychologist <a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/jay-van-bavel.html">Jay Van Bavel</a> says our group loyalties affect us more than we realize, and can even shape our basic senses of sight, taste and smell. </p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

Just Sex
13/09/202124 min<p>Casual sex typically isn't about love. But what if it's not even about lust? Sociologist <a href="https://liberalarts.tulane.edu/departments/sociology/people/lisa-wade">Lisa Wade</a> studies "hookup culture," and believes the rules and expectations around sex and relationships are different for college students today than they were for previous generations. This week we revisit our 2017 conversation with Wade, and consider how the pandemic may be changing students' views on hookups and intimacy. </p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Where Happiness Hides
6/09/202150 min<p>We all think we know what will make us happy: more money. A better job. Love. But psychologist <a href="https://profiles.ucr.edu/app/home/profile/sonja">Sonja Lyubomirsky</a> says happiness doesn't necessarily work like that. This week, we explore why happiness often slips through our fingers, and how to savor — and stretch out — our joys. </p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You 2.0: Regrets, I Have a Few...
30/08/202129 min<p>We all have regrets. By some estimates, regret is one of the most common emotions we experience in our daily lives. In the final episode of our You 2.0 series, we bring you a favorite interview with Amy Summerville, the former head of the Regret Lab at Miami University in Ohio. After years of studying this emotion, she says she's learned something that may seem counterintuitive: regret doesn't always have to be a negative force in our lives. </p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You 2.0: Did That Really Happen?
23/08/202148 min<p>Our memories are easily contaminated. We can be made to believe we rode in a hot air balloon or kissed a magnifying glass — even if those things never happened. So how do we know which of our memories are most accurate? This week, psychologist <a href="https://as.tufts.edu/psychology/people/faculty/ayanna-thomas">Ayanna Thomas </a>explains how we remember, why we forget, and the simple tools we all can use to sharpen our memories. </p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You 2.0: When Did Marriage Become So Hard?
16/08/202150 min<p>Marriage is hard — and there are signs it's becoming even harder. In the third episode of our You 2.0 summer series, we examine how long-term relationships have changed over time, and whether we might be able to improve marriage by asking <em>less</em> of it. </p> <p><em>If you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You 2.0: In the Heat of the Moment
9/08/202152 min<p>In a fit of anger or in the grip of fear, many of us make decisions that we never would have anticipated. As part of our You 2.0 summer series, we look at situations that make us strangers to ourselves — and why it's so difficult to remember what these "hot states" feel like once the moment is over.</p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You 2.0: Cultivating Your Purpose
2/08/202151 min<p>Having a sense of purpose can be a buffer against the challenges we all face at various stages of life. Purpose can also boost our health and longevity. In the kick-off to our annual You 2.0 series, Cornell University psychologist <a href="https://www.human.cornell.edu/people/alb325">Anthony Burrow</a> explains why purpose isn't something to be found — it's something we can develop from within.</p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!

Losing Alaska
26/07/202124 min<p>As floods, wildfires, and heatwaves hit many parts of the world, signs of climate change seem to be all around us. Scientists have been warning us for years about the looming threat of a warming planet. And yet it’s really hard for many of us to wrap our minds around this existential challenge. Why is that?

Stage Fright
19/07/202152 min<p>The pressure. The expectations. The anxiety. If there's one thing that connects the athletes gathering for the Olympic games with the rest of us, it's the stress that can come from performing in front of others. In this week’s episode, we talk with cognitive scientist <a href="https://barnard.edu/president-sian-leah-beilock">Sian Beilock</a> about why so many of us crumble under pressure –– and what we can do about it.</p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!

You, But Better
5/07/202150 min<p>Think about the resolutions you made this year: to quit smoking, eat better, or get more exercise. If you're like most people, you probably abandoned those resolutions within a few weeks. That's because change is hard.

The Influence You Have
28/06/202151 min<p>Think about the last time you asked someone for something. Maybe you were nervous or worried about what the person would think of you. Chances are that you didn't stop to think about the pressure <em>you</em> were exerting on that person.

What Twins Tell Us
24/06/202128 min<p>In December 1988, two sets of identical twins became test subjects in a study for which they had never volunteered. It was an experiment that could never be performed in a lab, and had never before been documented. This week, we revisit this fascinating story, told by <a href="http://psychology.fullerton.edu/faculty/facultyprofiles/n_segal.aspx">psychologist Nancy Segal</a>, about the eternal tug between nature and nurture in shaping who we are.</p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!

The Power of Apologies

In part two of our series on forgiveness and apologies, we talk with psychologist <a href="https://business.uq.edu.au/profile/788/tyler-okimoto">Tyler Okimoto</a> about the mental barriers that keep us from admitting when we've done something wrong, as well as the transformative power of apologies.</p> <p><em>I</em><em>f you like our work, please consider supporting it!
