The psychology of nostalgia, with Jannine Lasaleta

For podcast episode details, see https://behavior-podcast.com/the-psyc.... A talk with Jannine Lasaleta, who’s done research on the effects of nostalgia. Her research has shown how nostalgia makes us more carefree with money. We talk about why nostalgia is such a positive and attractive feeling for humans: how it can be a way for us to build meaning, establish consistency of our selves over time, and combat existential angst. We also talk about Lasaleta’s work showing that nostalgia makes people more likely to make healthier consumption choices. We also talk about common human desires for experiences that seem authentic, old-fashioned, or traditional, and how those may relate to nostalgia. Topics discussed: • How remembrances of good times and our social connections can relieve anxiety. • Why is it that nostalgia makes us less concerned about money? • Why the past can feel more real and authentic. • How traditional or old-fashioned activities can be stress-relieving because we are following established guidelines and not having to create something new. • Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan and nostalgia for an earlier America.
