Relationships 2.0: Why Did You Do That?

O tym odcinku

<p>As we go through life, we’re constantly trying to figure out what other people are thinking and feeling. Psychologist <a href="https://www.bc.edu/bc-web/schools/mcas/departments/psychology/people/faculty-directory/liane-young.html" target="_blank">Liane Young</a> says this ability to assess other people’s thoughts ​is an extraordinary feat of cognition. This week, in a favorite episode from our archives, we explore this mental superpower — and how it can lead us astray. </p><p>In our conversation with Liane Young, we explore:</p><p>*The uniquely human ability to think about the minds of other people, which scientists refer to as "theory of mind." </p><p>*How and when young children develop this ability to intuit what's happening in other people's minds. </p><p>*Why our understanding of other people's minds affects our moral judgments — and how those judgments can be disabled.</p><p>*How misreading another person's intentions can affect our lives in both small and significant ways.</p><p>Then, in the second part of this week's show, we welcome back researcher <a href="https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/profile/fred_luskin">Fred Luskin</a>, who responds to listeners' questions about grudges.
