Mind Reading 2.0: Why did you do that?
Hidden Brain About this episode
<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">Liane Young</a> says this ability to assess other people's thoughts is an extraordinary feat of cognition. But this mental superpower can sometimes lead us astray. This week, we kick off a new series exploring how we understand — or fail to understand — the minds of other people.</p><p><i>If you like this show, please check out our new podcast, </i><a href="https://hiddenbrain.org/myunsunghero/" target="_blank"><i>My Unsung Hero</i></a><i>!
