As humans, we perceive immoral behaviors as more revealing of a person's true character than good behaviors...but why? Peter Mende-Siedlecki conveys recent research in social psychology that suggests we are quick to form lasting impressions of others, but that we can also change our impressions in light of new information. Your class members will learn about the science behind impression updating, and what segments of our brain are responsible for weighting positive and negative information.
