“Psych Specifics: A Deeper Diver into General Psychology” is a podcast presented by The Psychology Department at James Madison University, aimed at introducing audiences to the exceptional faculty within the department. Through a series of short-form episodes, listeners gain a taste of the specific research interests and innovative studies conducted by JMU’s psychology scholars. Each interview delves a little in each faculty member’s sub-field within psychological science, providing a snapshot of the unique contributions of our faculty members to the larger field. While this podcast serves primarily as a valuable resource for students enrolled in general psychology courses, inviting them to move beyond the general curriculum and explore detailed aspects of the field, it also appeals to a broader audience eager to learn about the forefront of psychological research conducted by our department.
