New episode!! 🎙️📣 A chat w/ @DorsaAmir & @sheinalew about childhood across cultures. Humans everywhere go through childhood—a time of learning, growth, and play. But this universal stage of life can look very different in different places. Listen: disi.org/varieties-of-c…

New episode!! 📣📣 A conversation with @mollycrockett about AI and science! AI is fundamentally reshaping the entire research pipeline. These changes may well boost scientific productivity. Will they also boost understanding? Listen: disi.org/science-ai-and…
New episode!! 🎙️📣 A chat w/ Dr. Gordon Burghardt about animal play. It's not just kids, apes, and dogs that play. Play abounds—often in unexpected places. It takes different forms, has different functions, and still presents puzzles. Listen: disi.org/the-primeval...
As we age our personalities shift in predictable directions—to the point that it makes sense to speak of "personality age." But what drives these changes? Just one of the topics discussed in our latest episode, a conversation w/ @renemottus! Listen: disi.org/the-big-five-a…
If you don’t listen to the Many Minds podcast, I highly recommend it. Each episode is excellent & varied. This time: The big five and beyond podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/man… Lots of useful stuff: * Myers-Briggs is rubbish * Big 5 holds up well * Events often don’t change personality
New episode!! 📣🎙️ A conversation w/@renemottus about the science of human personality. The "Big Five" model of human personality has been enormously influential. But what does it miss? What does it mask? Where should the field go next? Listen: disi.org/the-big-five...
Looking forward to listening! 🎧📻
