In episode 4 of The Adaptive Edge Podcast, I interview developmental psychologist Brendan Fereday about his doctoral research at Stanford that focuses on the development of purpose and how having a strong purpose in life is key for having optimal levels of motivation and improving one's ability to handle stress. We also breakdown concepts like affect, mood, and emotion and discuss the different processes involved when we make a moral decision. To jump to specific topics, click below:
3:44 - What is purpose? How does it affirm your self-worth? What is the relationship between purpose and responsibility?
6:52 – How does purpose organize your sense of self?
9:30 – The connection between purpose, motivation, and stress.
13:10 – How can a sense of purpose help us escape rumination?
16:00 How does one define their purpose? What is the difference between having purpose and having dreams?
21:30 Is purpose malleable or concrete? When does it arise in people’s lives? What kickstarts the purpose development process?
25:10 Why is agency important in developing purpose and motivation?
27:35 How much of moral decision making is based on emotion? How much is based on reason?
29:00 – What is emotion and how does it differ from similar concepts like affect, mood, and attitudes?
33:50 –What are the processes that take place when making a moral decision?
40:35 – How rational are we? Do we reason our way through life or act on subconscious instincts?
46:28 - How do children learn concepts like love? Can this happen in isolation?
50:55 How is technology affecting psychology, and how can AI improve our learning processes?
54:30 – Brendan’s research project on the college experience and developing purpose
