The Neuroscience of Embarrassment

The People's Scientist

In Episode 134 of The People's Scientist podcast, I go into the details on the Neuroscience and Psychology of Embarrassment. We study embarrassment because it may prevent us from pursuing health promoting activities like social interactions, going to the gym, or seeking help. What brain regions are involved, what types of embarrassing scenarios exist, what personality traits are associated with higher embarrassability, and how we can use this information to help us cope with embarrassment. I get into those details and more.
