from Actual Intelligence with Steve Pearlman Hosted by Steven J. Pearlman, Ph.D.

They delve into the role that existing bodies of knowledge play in decoding thinking. News of the week examines whether or not reading to evaluate produces stronger outcomes than reading to comprehend. Also, to get "meta," Dave talks about the role attention plays in thinking, such as when listening to a podcast ... or not. This is a public episode.
