Stephanie Gomes-Ng: Superstitions

Superstitions… we all know them, we all laugh about them, and yet, many of us secretly abide by them. From lucky socks to avoiding black cats, superstitions come in all shapes and sizes. We dive into the psychology behind these curious habits and why they persist, even in a modern, science-driven world.

Guest: Stephanie Gomes-Ng is a Senior Lecturer of Psychology at the Auckland University of Technology.

Presenter: Warren Andrew.
