Predictably Irrational: Our Effort to Understand Human Behavior
Ross Miller
37 episodes

The human brain works in mysterious ways, and not always in the ways we think it does. We do strange things for the unknown reasons and we do common things often without thought. As a result, we are often unaware of how impulsive and predictable we can be. We often fail to think on the reasons that are behind our actions. In this podcast, students from a Japanese university explore their own understanding of these issues and hopefully, provide the listener with some insight into how our brains work and how to be more aware of our own thinking.

Relativity and the Decisions We Make

In today’s episode, we’re exploring Dan Ariely’s concept of relativity, as discussed in his book Predictably Irrational. Relativity helps explain why our decisions are often influenced by comparisons rather than absolute values. To bring this idea to life, our student presenters will share findings from their own study, where they tested how relativity affects decision-making in a real-world context. Get ready for an engaging mix of theory and practice!
