The Psychological "Effects" That Shape Our Thinking

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

Why do we think the way we think? How susceptible are we to influences we don't perceive? In the case of psychological effects, there are proven changes in thinking that occur in individuals or groups that can be attributed to particular causes. In this episode, hosts Amy Wilson and Margaret Ables get into some of their favorites, including:

  • placebo (and "nocebo" effect
  • near-miss effect
  • Martha Mitchell effect
  • observer expectancy effect
  • name-letter effect
  • online disinhibition effect
  • Eaton-Rosen effect (Amy always knew this one deep in her bones)
  • Dunning-Kruger effect
  • Zeigarnik effect
