Today I’m really excited to have Colin DeYoung on the podcast. Dr. DeYoung is associate professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota. He specializes in personality psychology but is especially interested in personality neuroscience. Besides being a prolific academic and researcher, I am also honored to count him as a dear friend and collaborator.
In this episode we discussed wide-range of topics relating to personality, including:
The modern day personality hierarchy
The “Big Two”: Stability and Plasticity
How Carl Jung developed his theory of introversion
The latest science of introversion
The scientific validity of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
Dopamine as the “neuromodulator of exploration”
The two major dopamingeric pathways
Why personality variation evolved
The neuroscience of conscientiousness
The link between compassion and imagination
The neuroscience of anxiety
The cybernetics of personality
Rethinking psychopathology
The effects of therapy on personality change
