New Cyberpsychology Podcast Launched – In Bits: Deconstructing our Digital Lives
From social media “addiction” to attention span changes, from trolling and harassment to online activism, from gaming to online dating, from misogyny to radicalisation online.
Our lives are fully immersed in technology, and people have concerns about how it might be affecting us all. There is a lot of poor media reporting and scaremongering in the field of cyberpsychology, but far less evidence-based content to offer an alternative. This podcast is informative and educational, directly addressing peoples’ concerns, worries and hopes, while also being entertaining and enjoyable to listen to. We breakdown challenging and sometimes difficult topics “in bits” to make them approachable, fun and easy to understand.
In Bits: Deconstructing our Digital Lives is out every Tuesday for the first four weeks, then every second Tuesday, and is available on all the podcast platforms including YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
