Description
When it comes to relationships, thereās no shortage of advice from self-help āexpertsā, pick-up artists, and glossy magazines. But modern-day myths of attraction often have no basis in fact or ā worse ā are rooted in little more than misogyny. In this talk, Prof Viren Swami, one of the worldās leading experts in the psychology of romantic attraction, debunks these myths and draws on cutting-edge science to provide a ground-breaking and evidence-based account of relationship formation. He'll present a very simple idea: that there are no ālaws of attractionā, no foolproof methods or strategies for getting someone to date you. But this isnāt to say that thereās nothing to be gained from studying attraction. Based on science rather than self-help clichĆ©s, Prof Swami looks at how factors such as geography, physical appearance, reciprocity, and similarity affect who we fall for and why.
