We are PsychSkeptics, and we’d love you to become one too!

Psychology teaches us that many intuitions are inaccurate, that short-term and long-term goals can conflict and that well-meaning initiatives can cause harm. However, psychologists often fail to apply such considerations to evaluation of their own ideas. Questioning, critiquing and exploring new perspectives help us make better decisions to promote short and long-term benefits. Join us as we work to unpack ideas and their consequences in psychology, education and society.

Who we are:

Dr. Nina Powell and Dr. Rebekah Wanic are psychologists, with over 30 years of collective experience teaching, writing and researching in areas related to moral, developmental and social psychology.
