    Episode 43 - Matt Larson is a SCARF Model

    The SCARF model is a psychological theory that explains how five social dynamics can trigger a threat or reward response in our brains. These elements are Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, and Fairness.  The SCARF model was developed by Dr. David Rock in 2008 in his paper, "SCARF: A Brain-Based Model for Collaborating With and Influencing Others". The model is based on neuroscience research that suggests these social domains activate the same threat and reward responses in our brains as physical survival.  You can read more about the SCARF Model in the PSIA-AASI Snowboard Technical Manual, the Teaching Snowsports Manual, or on YouTube!
