This week on BetterWorldians Radio we’re joined by Dr. Pamela Rutledge, a media psychologist. She’ll explain the impact this can have on our brains and share a surprising antidote: humor. Dr. Rutledge will also discuss the positive power of gaming and her interesting take on “selfies” and how they can be a useful way to explore self-image.
It's always a pleasure to talk about the psychological potential in technology when so many people are focused on the negative. Sadly, the negative plays into the fear reaction to something new. I love that the BetterWorldians are working hard to support the upside. #positivepsychology #mediapsychology. This point of view is the foundation for what we teach at Fielding Graduate University in researching and developing positive media uses and applications.
