About this listen
From the casino-like "pull-to-refresh" feature to the rise of the TikTok diagnosis, our devices have a much deeper impact on our mental health than we realize. In this compelling episode of Discover U, media psychologist Dr. Don Grant explains the psychological tricks technology uses to keep us hooked and how it's affecting our relationships and well-being.
Join guest host Amy Charlesworth as she and Dr. Grant discuss:
The concepts of "technoference" and "absent presence" in our daily interactions.
How the creators of technology often limit its use for their own children.
The rise of untrained "influencers" giving dangerous mental health diagnoses online.
Practical, expert advice for parents and individuals on creating healthier device habits and setting boundaries.
This is a crucial conversation for anyone looking to reclaim their attention and foster more meaningful real-life connections.
