Dr. Barry Schwartz To Speak At Baldwin Wallace University on September 27, 2012


Dr. Barry Schwartz, Professor of Psychology at Swarthmore College, will speak at Baldwin Wallace University on September 27th at 8:00pm.  As stated in a press-release through BWU, "His research has covered a range of topics including learning and memory, choice and decision-making, human nature, and 'practical wisdom', the interaction between personal experience, rational behavior, and empathetic judgment.  In his work, Schwartz examines research in psychology and economics to inform his theories on how humans make decisions, determine value judgments, and most importantly, balance our sense of morality with our own self-interest."
