  • Résumé

  • Leading Minds with Dr. David Brendel explores how innovative approaches in psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and coaching are empowering individuals in the 21st century to realize their full human potential. The show will feature experts in these areas discussing how people can develop individualized goals and solutions to their greatest challenges, rather than relying on standardized psychiatric treatments and potentially toxic medication. Drawing on new research findings in areas like positive psychology, Leading Minds will educate you about the benefits of “solutions-based” approaches rather than “problems-based” approaches. Expert discussions with renowned psychologists, neuroscientists, philosophers, and coaches will converge on a central theme. This unifying vision is that self-reflection, positive thinking, and personal responsibility will empower you to achieve practical wisdom, develop clear action plans, and achieve lasting success in all areas of their lives.

    Personal and Cultural Trauma: Philosophical Reflections on Women in Combat
    Oct 7 2013
    Women have been acquiring more visibility and presence in the military. In fact, in January, the Military reversed their ban on women in combat. Carol S. Gould, while a strong proponent of women's rights, has deep reservations about the role of women in combat. Dr. Brendel will be engaging her in a dialogue about her unorthodox concerns over women as warriors.

  • Computer-guided Behavioral Healthcare: From NASA to Earth

    Computer-guided Behavioral Healthcare: From NASA to Earth
    Sep 30 2013
    Behavioral health problems cause human suffering, result in lost productivity, drive up costs of care and worsen outcomes. Although effective treatments for mental health disorders exist, many people do not receive them due to cost, access to trained clinicians, logistics, and the stigma of asking for help. NASA faces similar barriers to delivering behavioral health interventions to astronauts flying long-duration space missions. A suite of interactive media programs has been developed to help astronauts prevent, assess, and treat their own psychosocial problems. The “Virtual Space Station” provides a range of computer-automated tools, including electronic Problem-Solving Treatment for depression, or ePST. ePST is a tool to treat depression by helping people solve real-world problems, which improves mood and enjoyment of life. This program will provide an overview of computer-automated treatments for behavioral health problems, an audio tour of the “Virtual Space Station” and ePST.

  • How to Hit and Think at the Same Time

    How to Hit and Think at the Same Time
    Sep 23 2013
    Yogi Berra claimed that you can’t hit a baseball and think at the same time; the choreographer George Balanchine would tell his dancers, “don’t think; just do,” and the psychologist Sian Beilock has conducted experiments which support, as she sees it, the phenomenon of “paralysis by analysis,” or as she puts it in her popular book Choke, “heightened attention to detail can actually mess you up.” But does thinking really interfere with expert performance? Does attention to detail tend to mess you up? Going against a long tradition of thinkers who have advocated the view that thinking interferes with doing, the philosopher and former professional ballet dancer, Barbara Gail Montero, discusses her forthcoming book in which she explains why, when you are really good at something, you really can hit and think at the same time. (Read a preview of the book in the New York Times, http://www.opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/06/09/the-myth-of-just-do-it/?emc=eta1Preview)
