170 | The Hawthorne Effect

This episode explores the Hawthorne Effect, a famous psychological phenomenon that arose in the 1920s and 1930s and has been continuously debated by scientists since then.

Human behavior is complicated, but it can always be directly attributed to something in the environment.
