Title: Refuting Six Misconceptions about Romantic Love
Speaker: Sandra Langeslag, Cognitive and Biological Psychologist

Content:
Interest in the science of romantic love is increasing, with more research, conferences, and publications focused on the topic. This is essential because love profoundly affects human lives and relationships across cultures. However, ongoing misconceptions in popular media and scientific literature impede progress in understanding the complexities of love.

In her latest article, Dr. Sandra Langeslag challenges six common myths about romantic love, which is the love for a significant other (as opposed to love for family members or friends, for example) and can be experienced regardless of whether someone is in a romantic relationship with the beloved. In this video, Dr. Langeslag shares her research findings and explains why: (1) romantic love is not necessarily dyadic, social, or interpersonal, (2) love is not an emotion, (3) romantic love does not only have positive effects, (4) romantic love is not uncontrollable, (5) there is no dedicated love brain region, neurotransmitter, or hormone, and (6) pharmacological manipulation of romantic love is not near.

For sexologists, understanding these nuances is essential for research and clinical practice. The lecture also offers recommendations for advancing the study of romantic love, focusing on intrapersonal dynamics and rigorous research methods.
