How Do Different Cultures Perceive Learning Disabilities? A Social Psychology and Cultural Psychology Podcast Episode.
Episode 356
Sunday, 30 November, 2025
We know from social and cultural psychology that our attitudes and opinions towards different topics are largely informed by the world we live in. Everything from our culture of origin, our family, our friends and more can influence our attitudes. This extends into our beliefs and attitudes surrounding mental health conditions and the lived experience of others. For example, hearing voices is heavily stigmatised in the West but in certain cultures, hearing voices is often celebrated and seen as a sign of the gods. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you're going to learn how culture impacts attitudes towards learning disabilities across the world, why this is important and more. Whether you're an aspiring or qualified psychologist, a teaching assistant or a mental health professional, this will be a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn how brain-cleaning "flushes" break focus, human can "catch" fear from robots, and brain changes across common mental health diagnoses look strikingly similar.LISTEN NOW!If you want to support the podcast, please check out:FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetGamification of Autism- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/gamification-of-autism Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.
