Science, Religion and Stereotypes - Dr Kimberly Rios

Our guest for this latest instalment of the Science & Belief
in Society Podcast is Dr. Kimberly Rios, Associate Professor at
Ohio University, whose research explores the relationship between
science, religion and identity from a social psychological
perspective. In this episode, Kim talks about how our perception
of things as seemingly fixed as the length of a straight line are
shaped by group pressures, discusses the differential impacts
membership of majority and minority social groups have on our
identity and the potential for us to ‘choke’ under pressure, and
even introduces us to her dog Jimmy!
