Conversations about Science and Society: Personality, Sex, and Reproducibility

Featured speakers: Colin DeYoung (Psychology) and Marlene Zuk (Ecology, Evolution and Behavior)

Scientific studies help explain how people act and behave. But sometimes these studies show different results when repeated on different populations. What expectations should we have for studies of personality and sexual behavior? And how much can we generalize across groups, or even across species? Join us for a conversation about reproducibility in the contexts of psychological studies of personality, biological studies of sexual behavior, and how we think about the intersection of science and society.

Date: Tuesday, October 29th, 2019 6 pm.
