1
Do you ever get into an argument where you know you're right
2
and yet even with your eloquent explanations and all of the facts on your side, you just can't get through?
3
Is there a strategic way to successfully convince somebody and change their opinion?
4
The first and most disappointing thing that you have to come to terms with is this.
5
Facts don't convince people, especially if they already have an opinion.
6
We all like to think that information or indisputable studies would convince us in an argument,
7
but study after study shows that when certain facts don't conform to our beliefs, our brains are happy to disregard or simply rationalize them away.
8
In one study, scientists asked people if they believed in man -made climate change
9
and then categorized them as either believers or deniers.
10
They then told some that scientists had re -evaluated the data
11
and concluded that predictions for the future were much worse than before, while some others were told the situation wasn't nearly as bad as once thought.
12
But these facts had an interesting result on their beliefs.
13
People who didn't believe in climate change and were told
14
that things were going to be much worse completely ignored this fact and their opinions were unchanged.
15
But if they were told that things weren't nearly as bad, their beliefs moved much farther in that direction.
16
And the same thing happened to those who believed strongly in climate change.
17
When told that things are now predicted to be worse, they shifted their opinions more strongly in that direction,
18
whereas those told it wouldn't be so bad didn't change their opinions at all.
19
The facts only caused people to polarize.
20
It turns out that once formed, people's impressions and opinions are extremely perseverant,
21
and cognitive scientists say much of this is actually linked to our ability as humans to cooperate,
22
a skill that no other animal has to the degree that humans do.
23
From hunting and gathering to agriculture and modern computers, our cooperation allows us to rely on one another's expertise instead of knowing everything.
24
As a result, we can hardly tell where our own understanding ends and another begins.
25
Ultimately, strong beliefs don't actually come from deep understanding.
26
This is known as the illusion of explanatory depth.
27
If I asked you to rate your understanding of something like a toilet,
28
zippers, or computers, chances are you believe you know way more than you actually do.
29
Go on and try to explain, step by step, how a toilet or a zipper functions in detail.
30
Sometimes this simple act can expose how baseless ours or another's opinion is.
31
In one study when participants were asked to rate their opinions of public policies like healthcare, and then later asked to explain,
32
in as much detail as possible, the impact of implementing those policies, they would quickly turn down the intensity of their beliefs,
33
having been exposed to their own ignorance.
34
How else can we overcome these tendencies and convince people in an argument?
35
It turns out that we need to focus on the common motive, as put by Tylee Sherat, a cognitive neuroscientist.
36
That is, focus on the motives and things you can agree on.
37
One study looking at parents afraid to vaccinate their children because of the fear of autism, found that if they simply told them the facts,
38
that the science shows there's no link between the two, they wouldn't listen.
39
But when they focused on the common goal of protecting the children, and explained what vaccines are meant to prevent things like measles,
40
mumps, polio, tetanus, and how those diseases impact children who get them, without even mentioning autism, they were more likely to have their kids vaccinated after.
41
Finally, humans are known to have something called an in -group and out -group bias.
42
We tend to be skeptical of outsiders, or people who we see as different from us.
43
This can come in the form of race, religion, physical traits, gender, but also in the form of ideas.
44
So people who don't share your ideas are part of your out -group.
45
Studies have been done to show that
46
if you can find a way to relate to people and have them see you in a different light,
47
to see you as part of their in -group, they're much more likely to listen to you than if they think you are nothing like them.
48
Find a group that you're both part of and use that as a point of personal connection.
49
Now, if you've ever wanted to challenge your own opinions or become more aware of those opinions contrary to your own,
50
then you should definitely check out
51
Bubble, a really awesome new company that I love, which uses machine learning to send you stuff you'll like,
52
but with a twist of also sending stuff that will nudge you outside of your filter bubble.

54
pictures, and videos, and then helps you flex your mental muscles with some stuff that wouldn't normally be in your feed.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
