The measure of it is a fragile business.” Dr. Josh Aronson, a pioneer in the field of stereotype threat, is here today for a fascinating and meaningful conversation. We talk through the origins of stereotype threat, why Josh prefers to call it “identity threat” instead, and ways to combat identity threat in test-taking. We also spend a good bit of time on Josh’s current work, which revolves around teaching and implementing mindfulness and meditation in schools in order to improve academic performance. This episode is a wonderful mix of research and practice that will definitely have you thinking differently about the way we approach testing!
