Have you ever wondered what's happening in your unconscious mind or why you talk to yourself? What about how your friends influence your opinions or whether that restaurant sign really is designed to make you hungrier because it's red? If you're watching this you're probably a human which means that scishow psych is all about you, it's about all of us, the thoughts and experiences that drive our behaviors and make us who we are. Psychology tends to get sensationalized or over-generalized so our goal is to explore the human mind using the real hardcore peer-reviewed science you know and love on scishow. Our brains are also just super complicated and weird, so for some questions researchers don't have a clear answer yet, and that's what makes the discussion worthwhile. I'm Hank Green, I'm Anthony Brown, and I'm Britt Garner, and if you've ever wanted to know more about the weird quirks that make the human mind so uniquely complex and compelling you have come to the right place.
