Want to hear more? Join him on the only psychology show made for curious and cool (but chronically stuck) over-analyzers.
If you like personality, mental health, urban design, music, food, evolutionary science, and serial killers you will love Dr. Bennett's Modern Minds column in Psychology Today magazine.
Dr. Bennett's entire professional workflow illustrated in just four cartoon steps. Cool, huh? In addition, there is a 73% chance he is making oatmeal at home right now.
He lives in Pittsburgh, PA with his amazing family and beloved computer.
Here is Professor Bennett wearing a suit and tie. Perfect for trekking through nature on a humid and sunny day!
