Leon is a practising psychological therapist, and in his "Psychology Of" clubs, he breaks down, in simple terms, the psychology behind our most human decision-making systems. Why are humans like this? Is it you? Your trauma? Your upbringing? Your experiences? How do all those affect how you see the world and act in it?

 

Tonight, let's take a deep look at the psychology of the very human practise of bullsh*t!

 

It's a funny thing about bullsh*t; many of us complain about it, and most of us do it. In this club, we'll take a psychological look at what bullshit is with Leon, a practising psychologist with lots of bullsh*t experience! Why do we bullshit? Who do we tend to bullshit more? Do we bullshit ourselves? How does bulsh*ting link to our cognitive abilities? How does it affect our creativity? Are there any positive aspects to bullshit?

 

Let's take a deep look at bullsh*t. Let's have a fascinating and scientifically and psychologically honest discussion about the opposite of honesty. Let's understand how big a part of our lives bullsh*t takes up and let's explore how that affects us. Let's even test our own abilities to bullsh*t and identify bullsh*t. Let's have a fun, enlightening, and intelligent psychological discussion!

 

Leon 是一名正在执业的心理治疗师。在他的 “Psychology Of” 系列活动里，他会用简单直接的方式，拆解那些看似日常、却非常人性的决策机制。人为什么会这样？是因为你本身？创伤？成长环境？过往经历？这些因素又是如何影响我们看待世界，以及在其中行动的方式？

今晚，我们就来认真聊聊一个非常“人类”的行为：bullsh*t。

 

说到 bullsht，很有意思的一点是，很多人一边吐槽它，一边自己也会用它。在这场活动中，我们会和 Leon 一起，从心理学角度拆解 bullsht 到底是什么。为什么我们会瞎胡扯？我们更容易对谁胡扯？我们会不会对自己胡扯？bullsh*t 和我们的认知能力之间有什么关系？它会影响创造力吗？它有没有什么“正面功能”？

 

我们会认真聊一聊 bullsh*t 本身。来一场关于“诚实的反面”的心理学讨论，尽量科学、尽量诚实地看待这个现象。一起看看 bullsh*t 在我们的生活里到底占了多大比例，它又是如何影响我们的。甚至我们还可以现场测试一下自己瞎胡扯的能力，以及识别 bullsh*t 的能力。

这会是一场有点好笑，但也很有思考空间的讨论。轻松，但不随便；有趣，也有内容。
