À propos de cet épisode

<p>From the time we're schoolchildren, we're ranked and sorted based on how smart we are. But what if our assumptions about intelligence limit our potential? This week, we revisit a favorite 2022 conversation with cognitive scientist <a href="https://scottbarrykaufman.com/bio/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Scott Barry Kaufman</a>, who proposes a more expansive notion of what it means to be "smart." Then, in the latest installment of Your Questions Answered, psychologist <a href="https://www.clarku.edu/faculty/profiles/james-cordova/" rel="noopener noreferrer">James Cordova</a> answers listener questions on accepting our romantic partners as they are.</p> <p><i>Our next stops on Hidden Brain’s live tour are just weeks away! Join Shankar for an evening of science and storytelling in </i><a href="https://www.ensembleartsphilly.org/tickets-and-events/ensemble-arts-philly-presents/hidden-brain-perceptions-tour" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>Philadelphia on March 21</i></a><i> or </i><a href="https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0300635CCCC30F08" rel="noopener noreferrer"><i>New York City on March 25</i></a><i>.
