THE PSYCHOLOGY WORLD PODCAST

All of us have had experiences of bad leadership. This might involve a bad team leader at work, a poor leader in a group project or poor leadership within an organisation. Equally, the vast majority of us have had amazing leaders who we enjoy working with, we develop a positive relationship with and they bring the best out in us. This leads us to question what actually is the difference between a bad leader and a good leader. Emotional intelligence is one explanation. Therefore, in this business psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn what is emotional intelligence, how does emotional intelligence make better leaders and how this knowledge can be used by aspiring and qualified psychologists alike. If you enjoy learning about applied psychology, the psychology of leadership and more, then this will be a great episode for you.
In the psychology news section, you'll learn about psychedelic co-therapy, we feel more similar to our future selves than our past selves, and how do we make sense of the extraordinary.

Episode 400 of The Psychology World Podcast is finally here. I couldn't have done it without you wonderful listeners and readers, and I'm immensely grateful to all of you. I'm really proud that we've made it to this moment. Granted, I have to admit that coming up with the idea for episode 400 was really tough because I didn't want to do another lessons learnt episode from 400 episodes and I didn't want to comment on my psychology journey as I've done that already throughout the past one hundred episodes. Therefore, I decided to focus on a guilty pleasure and a psychology topic that would make me really happy, and I wouldn't think about viewer numbers. As a result in this cognitive psychology podcast, you'll learn about the psychology of music. Including how music impacts our thoughts, feelings and behaviour and so much more. If you've ever wondered about the psychological processes behind our enjoyment of music, then this will be a great episode for you. 
In the psychology news section, you'll learn how even our dog research is WERID, a new tool to identify those at psychological risk from heatwaves, and how people justify their CEO's excessive salary.

A lot of people think that they understand what alcoholism or alcohol use disorder is, but they don't. I often hear people joking that their friends and family members are alcoholics because they like to drink. Yet alcohol use disorder is a little more complex than that, and it can ruin lives, destroy relationships and lead to severe physical and mental health consequences. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you'll learn what is alcoholism or alcohol use disorder, what are the causes and symptoms and how is alcohol use disorder treated. If you enjoy learning about addiction, mental health and alcoholism, then this will be a great episode for you.
In the psychology news section, you'll learn about why is resilience so misunderstood, the fallout of feeling unfairly treated at school, and what does a positive relationship with your hair look like.
