Psychosocial Distancing

Listen Later

Episode 66 of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology moves us into COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY! And while there is no book (no viable open source ones exist) we plan to go through the core areas of cognition, memory, and more. This season, joining us is Dr. Alyssa Jones to act as our cognitive guide through the world outside of our social bubble.

This episode Daniel and Alyssa talk spooky psychology and superstition with Dr. Persinger’s controversial ‘God Helmet’ and why people believe in superstition, ghosts, and more. It’s Halloween meets cognitive psychology on this episode!
