What Listening to This Episode Says About You Personality

Like astrology and psychics, online personality tests generally use the Barnum effect to trick you into thinking they have something meaningful to say. They're tricksy like that. But they have also been used for extremely nefarious reasons, and in one instance, an implementation that lead to the beginning of the end of democracy in America. Also, we take some personality tests in real time.

193 | Character v Circumstance

What do Rush Limbaugh David Lee Ross, and Fidel Castro have in common? They are all part of a discussion about fundamental attribution error! This human bias is ironically self-referential. People tend to attribute causes of their own behavior to external characteristics while assuming that others’ behavior is due to characteristics endemic to that person. Or at least in western cultures they do. We discuss what it is, skepticism about it, and how to avoid it.
