" This is real-deal #psychology "
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,

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 -

... Huh. https://depressioneducation.org/mood-spectrum-mood-swings-without-mania/
This makes sense. We don't have one single "mood hormone" or even receptor type in cells, so why would we have one single "correct" mood set? https://depressioneducation.org/depression-section-page-1/the-dsm-rules-for-psych-diagnosis/
... Psychiatryst, lol. That needs to be an ERP game or something. And psychologussy.

You don’t need a psych degree to see the guy’s posts are unhinged and practically confessing. Go look for yourself. #psychoanalysis #psychology #psychologist #post #sociologist

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?

Hosted by cognitive #anthropologist Christopher Kavanagh and #psychologist Matthew Browne, the show blends academic rigor with #humor to analyze the methods and messages of these contemporary thought leaders.💡

#malcolmGladwell has another book, I guess trying to rescue his much-nitpicked #TippingPoint.
IDK if he's a net positive force in the world or not. As a #psychologist I've occasionally looked up the original #research he cites. He tends to portray findings in black-and-white terms, like "People do X in Y situation!" when, most often, I've found the research best supports something like "In some studies 12% of people did X in Y situation despite previous #models predicting it should only be 7%" or "The mean of the P group was 0.3 standard deviations higher than the mean of the Q group".
I see many of his grand arguments as built more or less on a house of cards. Or rather, built on a house of semi-firm jell-o that he treats as if it were solid bricks.
I'm not knocking (most of) the #behavioralScience he cites; Hell, I'm a behavioral scientist and I think this meta-field has a ton to offer. I just think it's important to keep #EffectSize and #PracticalSignificance built into any more complex theories or models that rely on the relevant research instead of assuming that #StatisticalSignificance means "Everything at 100%". I'm sure there's some concise way to say this.
Overall, I think he plays fast and loose with a lot of scientific facts, stacking them up as if they were all Absolutely Yes when they're actually Kinda Maybe or Probably Sort Of and I don't think the weight of the stack can be borne by the accumulated uncertainty and partial applicability indicated by the component research.
So I take everything he says with huge grains of salt and sometimes grimaces, even though I think sometimes he identifies really interesting perspectives or trends.
But is it overall good to have someone presenting behavioral research, heavily oversimplified to fit the author's pet theory? It gets behavioral science in the public eye. It helps many people with no connection to behavioral science understand the potential usefulness and perhaps scale of the fields. It also sets everyone--especially behavioral scientists--up for a fall. It's only a matter of time after each of his books before people who understand the research far better than he does show up to try to set the record straight, and then what has happened to public confidence in behavioral science?
Meh.
