Episode notes

I think the car analogy is really helpful. Like we have kind of figured out a way of dividing cars into categories that we care about, like s v, sedan, a sub compact hybrid. It's just a useful way of distinguishing what consumers want and what car makers are making. And if you want to get more specific than that, you can right? You know, i want a standard. I want a stickshift. N seem like its carving nature at the joints, or capturing some, like, real platonic difference between's.

David and Tamler tackle the topic selected by their Patreon supporters - the psychology of personality. What are the different dimensions of personality that distinguish one person from another? How many dimensions are there - do the Big Five capture all of them? Do we share some of these differences with other species? Why don't personality psychologists include moral character traits? Plus - are you curious about your partner's true political commitments? No problem, just install a periscope in your toilet.
