Sedona Chinn, a researcher who studies how people make sense of competing scientific, environmental, and health-related claims, joins us to discuss her latest research into doing your own research. In her latest paper she found that the more a person values the concept of doing your own research, the less likely that person is to actually do their own research. In the episode we explore the origin of the concept, what that phrase really means, and the implications of her study on everything from politics to vaccines to conspiratorial thinking.<a href="https://www.sedonachinn.com">Sedona Chinn's Website</a><a href="https://twitter.com/OMGBEARSS">Sedona Chinn's Twitter</a><a href="https://misinforeview.hks.harvard.edu/article/support-for-doing-your-own-research-is-associated-with-covid-19-misperceptions-and-scientific-mistrust/">Sedona Chinn's Paper</a><a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/02691728.2022.2146469">The Other Paper Mentioned</a><a href="https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome">How Minds Change</a><a href="https://twitter.com/davidmcraney">David McRaney’s Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog">YANSS Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog">Show Notes</a><a href="https://davidmcraney.substack.com/">Newsletter</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/youarenotsosmart">Patreon</a>
