    A #psychologist explains #malignant #narcissism and explores the thinking we see vividly in Sir Donald, the Stable Genius with all the best words.

    #DJT has terrific people too.
    Until expendable.

    I'll not get into my own take or experience except that I studied Fromm - cited here, in regard to #empathy & lack thereof, as seen in, say, a decoy press aircraft the other day.

    Along with #Zimbardo, #George nails it!

    A master class here,

  3. Davvero,
    mi piacerebbe conoscere il processo #psicologico che scatta nella #mente dei #negazionisti.
    #Psicologi, ci siete quì?

    Io non sono certo di molte cose, ho solo una #formazione #chimica, e cerco di usare il mio modesto #cervello.
    Perchè molte #persone si rifiutano di usare il proprio e credono a tutto quello che gli viene detto?
    Vorrei andare oltre i soliti #LuoghiComuni

    Absolutely, as this forensic #Psychologist argues, the #Narcissist usually suffers from an inferiority complex, which he tries to compensate with grandiosity,

    "...is why narcissists compulsively create and perpetuate their own version of reality, twisting and distorting information to suit their own purposes. To preserve and protect their own persona, as #CGJung called it. Not only to maintain their self-image in the eye...

  6. #Psychologist #PeterGray challenges the idea that #smartphones and #socialmedia caused the youth #mentalhealthcrisis. He argues that decades of #declining #independence, #freeplay and growing #schoolpressure are more damaging. Gray even sees the digital world as a space for autonomy and connection. Researchers remain divided, warning that neither phones nor schools alone can explain the complex mental-health decline. theatlantic.com/technology/202 #tech #media #news

    “In her study and interviews, [Valeria Pfeifer, a #psychologist at the University of Missouri,] noted that human⁠s have been #speaking for 200,000 years. She also noted that real, live #conversation⁠s "involve different social and #cognitive processes than typed conversations and that such live conversations can elicit benefits in well-being that app⁠s and social media cannot readily replace."”

  9. 🎥 I've just wrapped up a whole morning of recording new videos for a course I'm developing. A ton of bloopers, lots of eye-rolling, and lots of editing required! But I'm glad to have the raw materials sorted.

  10. People who are #blind from birth never develop #schizophrenia – what this tells us about the #psychiatric condition

    In 1950, two researchers noticed something that didn’t quite add up. Hector #Chevigny, a writer who had lost his sight in adulthood, and #psychologist Sydell #Braverman were studying the #psychological lives of blind people when they stumbled upon an intriguing pattern ...

  11. theguardian.com/environment/20; science.org/doi/10.1126/scienc (abstract only). "'It seems to be a recurring thing in our field where people come up with reasons why #humans are #special & unique, & then #scientists like me test it out, & we find that, actually, maybe we’re not that special after all,' says the study’s lead author, Amalia Bastos, a comparative #psychologist at the University of St Andrews in #Scotland. “That animals, too, are capable of secondary representations or imagination.'"

  12. 7 Traits of People Who Clean While Cooking, According to a Psychologist

    There’s… quite a lot to worry about these days (which might be the understatement of the century?). Yet one psychologist shares that it’s worth trying to understand how our traits and habits connect. For instance, people who c…

  13. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/a. I should hope so! How much longer are the #Christian #right in the #US going to continue supporting #Trump if he keeps pulling #blasphemous stunts like this? I knew a #psychologist who had worked in an in-patient #psychiatric ward, & had the dubious privilege of introducing one "Jesus" to another.

  15. As a #psychologist for a human #trafficking prevention #hotline, Nelia Troychuk feels a sense of dread every time the phone rings. But each time it does, she steadies herself and focuses on helping.

  16. A #psychologist would probably diagnose insanity for a nation that spends more on its #military than the next 8 nations combined, while its poor are starving.

  21. Any insight on this topic from professional #psychologist / #sociologist welcomed: I should dig the question deeper In short: how would you describe the frontier between "psychopaths" and "sociopaths" in proto-fascists/leaning-fascist/fascist regimes Where my categorizations could be caricature?

  22. A quotation from Will Rogers

    There are two things that I don’t care how smart you are, you will never understand. One is an alienist’s [psychiatrist’s] testimony, and the other is a railroad time table.

    Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist
    Column (1924-08-24), “Weekly Article”

  23. Is anyone in here a #licensed #psychologist or knows one? Preferably one who understands #Marraige and #Family #Therapy in MD? My wife just graduated with her BS in #Psychology from UMGC and is trying to determine a #grad program but UMGC isn’t being helpful in helping her decide (they don’t have a #masters program apparently).

    I would love if someone is available to have a chat about it all so my wife can plan the next step in her educational journey.
