    How Are Job Interviews Failing Us? A Business Psychology Podcast Episode.

    Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes. For the first time ever on The Psychology World Podcast, we are actually going to focus on business psychology and the great topic of job interviews. In the current job market, you simply cannot escape job interviews because a lot of people believe that they are good indicators of future job performance. Yet modern research published in 2024 shows how this is far from the case and more often than not, job interviews absolutely fail to predict a person’s ability to be an asset to the company, fit within the current team and how they’ll perform on the job. Therefore, in this business psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn how job interviews are failing us, the three main reasons why job interviews are not good indicators of future job performance and how can we improve the effectiveness of the recruitment process. A major purpose of business psychologists. If you enjoy learning about organisational psychology, the recruitment process and careers in psychology then this will be a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about whether artificial naps are on the horizon, how ticker-tape synaesthesia links to dyslexia, and the importance of overcoming perfectionism in the New Year.

    What Happens During a Specific Learning Difficulties Assessment? A Clinical Psychology Podcast Episode.

    On the 3rd December 2024, I had a two-hour-long Specific Learning Difficulties online assessment, so I could get a diagnosis of dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia or dysgraphia. I was assessed for all of them because I went through my university to get a dyslexia diagnosis and instead I had a Specific Learning Difficulties assessment that allowed me to be assessed for all of them. After the assessment (which was actually funny in its own right because I was able to be diagnosed quicker than she expected), I was diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia. We’ll cover these two conditions in the next two podcast episodes. Yet as an aspiring clinical psychologist, I found the assessment process fascinating and I really enjoyed how she adapted her process, her thoughts and what her approach as she got more information and test results so she could make a diagnosis. I learnt a lot during the assessment. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn what happens during a Specific Learning Difficulties assessment, how I got the assessment in the first place and what I learnt as an aspiring clinical psychologist. If you enjoy learning about mental health conditions, psychological assessments and applied clinical psychology then this will be a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how to foster curiosity as a child, and the muddiness of microdosing research. LISTEN NOW!

    What Makes a Terrorist? A Forensic Psychology and Criminal Psychology Podcast Episode.

    Whilst I have to admit releasing a forensic psychology book about terrorism might seem weird in December but I haven’t thought about it. Yet whenever we see news about a terrorist attack, we always wonder why something would commit such a horrible attack but we wonder what makes a terrorist as well. Is a mental health condition? Is it biological in nature? Are there social or cultural factors at play? And does society make someone a terrorist or not? We need to know the answer. Therefore, in this criminal psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn about the large range of factors that can make someone into a terrorist. If you enjoy learning about the psychology of crime, terrorism and more then this will be great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll about whether people did perceive the invisible gorilla after all, why it's worth embracing uncertainty, and coping together, staying together. LISTEN NOW!

    As we reach episode 300 of The Psychology World Podcast, I cannot deny I am so excited to reach this brilliant milestone because we reached episode 200 around April 2023, and typically most podcasts fail before episode 30. That means we have reached ten times the number of episodes before podcasts typically end and that is brilliant. I am still excited for the podcast’s future, I have a lot of ideas for future episodes and I flat out love the learning opportunities that this podcast provides me with. Yet ultimately, I love this psychology podcast because of all of you wonderful listeners, especially when you share and review the podcast and buy me books.

    What Is Psychophysics? A Biological Psychology and Cognitive Psychology Podcast Episode.

    In biological psychology, there is one of my favourite topics in psychology. It might not be related to clinical psychology, mental health or even forensic psychology, but I love it anyway. Psychophysics is a fascinating area of psychology that has always grabbed my attention and made me want to understand more about how a physical stimulus leads to a psychological experience. For example, how does physical stimuli of chocolate create a chocolate taste in our minds, and how does chocolate create the psychological experience of pleasure. These are some of the questions that psychophysics aims to answer. In this biological psychology podcast episode, you'll learn what is psychophysics, what does psychophysics cover and what might the future of psychophysics be. If you enjoy learning about physiological psychology, biopsychology and how our physical environment impacts our psychological processes then this will be a brilliant episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how recalling old parties might lead to more moderate drinking, how a new government report advises a mental health approach over counter-terrorism for incels, and how the framing effect impacts therapy.
