The top 10 myths of psychology | Ben Ambridge | TEDxYouth@Manchester

[@WWMorian]

My psychology teacher made me watch this

[@cephalonio8928]

[@carterroggenbaum1957]

Me too

[@jeilam95]

[@scarlett5745]

girl same this is the very last thing i gotta do for my summer project im sooo close and it sucks because i hate listening to british people talk

[@KN909_]

same 😝😝😝

[@Brainbuster]

One of the best and most important TED talks--because SO many people believe these myths (in fact, even though I like to think I purged many myths from my brain, such as the "only 10% of our brain" myth, I believed the Milgram one toward the end). Glad I watched.

[@jordonlongley6576]

“I was doing it for the greater good” is essentially indistinguishable from “I was just following orders”. At the end of the day, those who continued to “shock” the “victims” even when hearing them cry out for it to stop, failed to have strength of character to stop, and that’s the important lesson from the study.

[@adjjal]

This is a very good ted talk. So many people believe these things

[@nadieloca1605]

What were the top 10 myths?

[@mistressmars3200]

This is really good..and actually really funny. I don't understand why the audience isn't laughing during the presentation. Maybe they recorded it with an audience filter? Mistake...good information well presented.

[@marklewis4793]

they were psych students finding out that psychology is'nt an exact science,..bubbles were burst.

[@SkillUpMobileGaming]

+mark lewis I was literally directed to this video from my psychology textbook. I think this video is insightful, not shocking.

[@RitterLake]

i like the one laugh at 2:15 almost sounds like a goat "HEHHH"

[@prcsoldier]

I get it if he’s nervous, but he should’ve practiced more and paced himself. Way too fast, acts way too nervous, and it makes it hard to listen to him.

[@Mr_Hewitts_Psych_Class]

One of the better talks I've seen!

[@aalmight]

Only here so I won’t get a F

[@Anudawn8787]

No one shares 100 percent environment.

[@cvmonme-iu9wx]

Great vid!

[@patgallagher6814]

"The best presentation formats," hmmm perhaps slowing down and breathing helps,

[@wayupnorth9420]

For a country that is named after the language, or visa-versa, you would think you could understand them better when they spoke.

[@skepticalgenious]

Just curious did they use a topographic map? I love those. In boy scouts if I didn't know how to locate mountains. I would probably not be here

[@lilggs4813]

His words must be on the ground he keeps looking there 😂🤣

[@Gemini_blue]

Thanks now I can’t focus on anything but that Lmfaoooo 🤣

[@THEREALCANDYOFFICE]

😂😂😂😂

[@CreeperKiller420]

this guy needs some water

[@lilggs4813]

Wait his voice doesn’t match his face... like at all

[@RoryA-v2k]

hahahaha omg you're right

[@jimisunkissed6164]

He seems like a younger version of steve jobs

[@Fatmata-ix8fk]

I'm ambidextrous!

[@lilasolmaz2160]

bilal abi yazdığım ifadeleri kıskanma

[@zack3006]

For each claim he made, there are so many contrasting evidences to his claim. It's like he's trying to simplify things down to whether "it's true" or "a myth".

[@sashimicheetah]

As with many things in life, ESPECIALLY in the natural world issues are very complex and nuance is absolutely required when talking about them, however I suppose it's also true that given their[The presenter's] limited presentation time, he has to take some liberties... Either way, videos like these should NEVER be taken at face value because secondary sources are always less accurate than the primary ones.

[@kevinkim2963]

Absolutely agreed. The presenter made his claim about the Rorschach Inkblot Test based on just one controversial research paper (the guy himself didn't even take the test). Go check the video on TED now because they changed the title to 9 myths of psychology debunked instead of 10 as they got rid of the Rorschach part. Pretty sure the other 9 are controversial as well.

[@lilggs4813]

70% of English teachers in my school are left handed,ever think about that? It’s not that much of a myth at all

[@lazygenie5616]

Pffft….. show me your data or didn’t happen

[@at7able]

But this is what amateurs or bad psychologist says not what really serious psychology says about this topics

[@orsonschuijers9865]

Talk so fast it is hard to register anything, you always miss something. Added to that, the same format of 'you think this, but its myth haha' is too repetitive, too bad, because this idea could be worked out really interesting

[@alzatadavis9953]

completely agree. this was so hard to follow.

[@sebnemedikli1737]

[@jeffschager2189]

There's nothing Joaquin Phoenix can't do...

[@truefalse3595]

4:00

[@dudeistpriest8664]

I like this doing phycology myself now after I've learnt about nuro science and spiritually the talk of the left and right side of the Brian doesn't seem to be correct here. If just looking at phycology your just looking from a veiw to better your life as you no it not of what it could be. Saying that this seems correct to the theories on phycology

[@NuMetal92]

useless talk without reference to any research or studies.

[@edithhall7831]

I don't understand anything he's saying too fast and with an accent on top of everything 🙂 not helpful

[@teetee2426]

Speaks way too fast. Cant bear listening to.him.

[@loreleiteeter1147]

Captions??

[@heavens.sorrow]

.75 speed. I personally had it on 1.50 speed.

[@NicholasNerios]

Women are so snickers. j/k

[@modelo61]

Very weird guy talking about irrelevant things, myths that actually no one defends on psychology. Who are skeptics talking to? Are they afraid?
