Social Psychology for People in a Hurry with Patrick Natili

Patrick Natili is a psychology student and 4-year scholar-athlete (cheerleading) at Florida Gulf Coast University who will soon pursue his master's degree. He also happens to be my best friend and the smartest guy I know (by far).

We broke out the organic elderflower apple sparkling sake wine and went to town on a wide range of psychology topics, among other things, that most intrigue us.

Our talking points include:

• How to solve for social interactions the way you would solve a math problem (mathematics of sociability)


• How to be friends with anyone


• Suicide


• Affluenza


• Is the search for meaning a meaningless search?


• Instagram/social media behavior types


• Saturated stimuli


• Upward and downward comparisions


• Screen time limits


• Trigger words and sentence framing


• How most eating is sensation-seeking and we don't need to eat nearly as much as we do


• Is moderation for the weak or is it a crucial component of life?


• Self-serving biases


• Love as a path


• Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs


• Cognitive dissonance
