Скачать или смотреть The Science of Wisdom (Part 2): How Wisdom Develops & Cultivates

What does it really mean to live wisely? In Part 2 of our science of wisdom series, we explore how psychologists define wisdom, how it develops across life, why age alone doesn’t make us wiser, and how you can actively cultivate wisdom through reflection, creativity, and social interaction.

Wisdom isn’t just intelligence or knowledge. Research shows it’s a balance of judgment, humility, uncertainty management, and perspective-taking. In this video, we break down the five scientific criteria used to evaluate wisdom, explain why wisdom stays surprisingly stable across adulthood, and reveal evidence-based strategies that can boost wisdom performance by nearly 20%.

You’ll also learn:
• Why wisdom doesn’t automatically increase with age
• How creativity explains major differences in wisdom
• The “interactive minds” method backed by research
• How reflection + conversation work better than thinking alone

This is the second video in a three-part series on the science of wisdom.
