Description

Scholarly work has always shaped public discourse in formative ways; however, shifting conversations about the role of intellectuals in public life, about the democratization of expertise, and about new digital platforms have created a dynamic topography from which to consider knowledge and research.Avery Trufelman, critically acclaimed host of, most-recently, Articles of Interest (named one of the best podcasts of the year by The New Yorker), will lead this lunch session for staff and faculty about how she thinks about podcasting as a genre and tool for storytelling, scholarship, and pedagogy. Trufelman will facilitate a pragmatic space for us to consider the role of audio in our classrooms as texts, assignments, and sites of departure.To help us plan for an appropriate amount of food, we kindly ask you to register for this event.

How Focusing on Individual-Level Solutions Led Behavioral Public Policy Astray
Today's Events | Ho Science Center, 101
The Spring 2024 MBBI Lecture - The i-Frame and the s-Frame: How Focusing on Individual-Level Solutions Has Led Behavioral Public Policy Astray - will be given by George Loewenstein (Carnegie Mellon, Economics and Psychology).Many behavioral scientists propose and test policy interventions that seek to ‘fix’ problems with individual behavior (adopting an “i-frame”) rather than addressing the system in which individuals operate (an “s-frame”). The impact of such i-frame interventions has been disappointing and can reduce support for much-needed systemic reforms. Highlighting individual responsibility for societal problems is a long-established objective of corporate opponents of s-frame policies such as regulation and taxation. Thus, researchers advocating i-frame solutions may have unwittingly promoted the interests of the opponents of systemic change. Behavioral scientists can best contribute to public policy by employing their skills to develop and implement value-creating system-level change.
