Why Is Validation Powerful? A Social Psychology and Friendship Psychology Podcast Episode.
After a recent experience of a friend invalidating me, it got me thinking about the importance of validation in social relationships. Then I started thinking about validation in mental health because often my mental health has gotten worse after someone invalidated me, my feelings and my experiences. Also, I’ve been running a little experiment this week when I try to be more mindfully validating of others and it has led to more rewarding, deeper conversations and connections with others. Therefore, in this social psychology podcast episode with some clinical psychology implications, you’ll learn about what is validation, why is validation a social superpower and how to validate other people more often. If you enjoy learning about social relationships, validation and psychotherapy then this is a brilliant episode for you.In the psychology news section, you'll learn why sorries seem to have the harder words, how do kids understand "aha" moments, and why our search engines queries also maintain our online echo chambers.
