Join the coauthor of the world’s best-selling psychology textbook in exploring the secrets of human psychology and group behavior
Understanding your thoughts and emotions, as well as the effects of your social environment, is key to living your best life. In this audio bundle from renowned psychology professor Nathan DeWall, you will learn how familiarizing yourself with the basics of psychology generally and social psychology specifically can help you improve your self-image, relationships, and sense of overall well-being.
In Prof. DeWall’s psychology course, you will get a backstage pass to many of the mind’s mysteries, including why some people are prone to depression, why some therapies work while others don’t, and why some romantic relationships succeed while others flop. Incorporating vivid case studies and psychological research, these 24 engaging lectures challenge you to reconsider what you think you know about the mind and offer practical tools to improve your daily life.
In the social psychology course, you’ll learn how small changes to your social environment can produce big changes in how you approach daily life and major decisions. In 24 provocative lectures, you’ll answer questions such as: Why do we connect with some people and not others? What makes great teams flourish? And How does culture shape our attitudes? As it explores the fascinating field of social psychology, this eye-opening audio course busts common myths about human psychology and behavior.
Iowa State University psychology professor Craig A. Anderson describes Prof. DeWall as “one of the most influential psychological science leaders of his generation”. Now is your chance to take two life-changing courses in his classroom.
This bundle is part of the Learn25 collection.

This series of 28 lectures was given by Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), the founder of psychoanalysis, during the First World War and first published in English in 1920. The purpose of this general introduction was to present his work and ideas - as they had matured at that point - to a general public; and even though there was to be considerable development and change over the ensuing years, these talks still offer a valuable and remarkably approachable entry point to his revolutionary concepts.

Why do you have trouble controlling certain behaviors? Why do you behave differently as an adult than you did as an adolescent?Since the start of recorded history, and probably even before, people have been interested in answering questions about why we behave the way we do.

The science of emotion is in the midst of a revolution on par with the discovery of relativity in physics and natural selection in biology. Leading the charge is psychologist and neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett, whose research overturns the long-standing belief that emotions are automatic, universal, and hardwired in different brain regions. Instead, Barrett shows, we construct each instance of emotion through a unique interplay of brain, body, and culture.

Hardly a day goes by that we don’t hear about someone committing a violent, reprehensible, even evil, act. And each time it happens, before we know anything about the circumstances, we are already sure of one thing: We are nothing like that perpetrator. But how can we be so sure? After all, we are all human. In Understanding the Dark Side of Human Nature, Professor Daniel Breyer takes us on a fascinating philosophical journey into many of the deepest and darkest questions that have engaged humanity for millennia.

Michael Shermer presents an overarching review of conspiracy theories—who believes them and why, which ones are real, and what we should do about them. Trust in conspiracy theories, he writes, cuts across gender, age, race, income, education level, occupational status—and even political affiliation. One reason that people believe these conspiracies, Shermer argues, is that enough of them are real that we should be constructively conspiratorial. But Shermer reveals that other factors are also in play: anxiety and a sense of loss of control, as well as certain personality traits.

Politicaly Tainted and Basic
I had a feeling this was going to be a waste of time when hearing the speakers credentials and realizing he has no real world or practical experience as a practicing psychologist but instead has been institutionalized in the education system his entire life. The information is basic, which is fine for an introductory course, so I gave it 3 stars, but don't expect to learn many secrets of human behavior here as most of what is pointed out would be obvious to anyone of above average intelligence. Also, because of the liberal institutionalization of the speaker and subject matter, a good deal of it seems biased toward an agenda, even if that agenda is unconscious. For example, the speaker lists multiple stereotypes that can be positive, even though they are correct statistically as the speaker mentions himself, but makes no mention that negative stereotypes can also have statistical truth to them and instead blames others perceptions of individuals. There is a disconnect here that seems to be a main theme in the work. Worth listening, if you can tell the difference, but most people probably can not, given that many students who could benefit from this course would be young and inexperienced and utterly malleable.

Irreproducible studies and tainted content
First of all, I did not but this course to be lectured about wearing a mask and following the rules by a social psychologist.
And while I'm at it, let me warn you that many of the studies this course relies on are irreproducible. Isn't there a rule that when you reference an irreproducible study you must mention it? Well, as usually, rules are for those who listen, not for those who lecture.
For example, Kahneman apologized for referencing the study where respondents allegedly walked slower after being exposed to old age-related words. What about DeWall's apologies?
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
