  • Childhood Trauma: The One Test You Don't Want to ACE

    Childhood Trauma: The One Test You Don't Want to ACE
    Jun 2 2025
    Understanding the Impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Pathways to HealingIn this episode of PsyberSpace, host Leslie Poston digs into the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) test, a 10-question survey that uncovers the hidden impacts of childhood trauma on adult health and well-being. Leslie explains how high ACE scores correlate with numerous physical and mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, chronic illnesses, and reduced life expectancy. The episode explores the biological effects of trauma on the brain and body, how trauma manifests in the workplace, relationships, and parenting, and the importance of trauma-informed healthcare. Additionally, Leslie discusses various therapeutic approaches, including somatic therapy and EMDR, that assist in healing from trauma. The episode concludes with actionable advice for those with high ACE scores, emphasizing patience in the healing journey and the potential for post-traumatic growth.00:00 Introduction to ACE Test01:47 Origins and Impact of ACE04:38 Trauma and the Brain07:23 Trauma in Daily Life12:18 Medical Implications of Trauma15:50 Healing and Recovery18:18 Practical Steps for Healing21:29 Conclusion and ResourcesACE Test: https://www.acesaware.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ACE-Questionnaire-for-Adults-Identified-English-rev.7.26.22.pdfReferencesBethell, C.

  • The Paradox of Progress - Why Success Makes Us Forget

    The Paradox of Progress - Why Success Makes Us Forget
    May 26 2025

    The Paradox of Progress: Why We Forget What Works

    In this episode of PsyberSpace, host Leslie Poston digs into the 'Paradox of Progress,' a psychological phenomenon explaining why society and individuals often dismantle the systems that made their successes possible. The episode explores this paradox in various realms including public health, civil rights, economics, and climate policy. The discussion reveals how our brains' tendency to forget problems once they are resolved leads to cyclical issues, like the resurgence of diseases or the rollback of civil protections. It emphasizes the importance of active memory and systemic maintenance to prevent the recurrence of past mistakes and underscores the universal challenge of sustaining progress.

  • Outsourcing Our Minds: AI, Learning, and the Cognitive Cost

    Outsourcing Our Minds: AI, Learning, and the Cognitive Cost
    May 19 2025
    The Cognitive Cost of AI: A Deep Dive into Learning and DevelopmentIn this episode of PsyberSpace, host Leslie Poston explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping cognition, particularly in education. The discussion focuses on the developmental impact of AI on children and the cognitive trade-offs associated with relying on AI tools. The episode delves into the science behind why traditional methods like handwriting are essential for learning, memory, and cognitive development. It also highlights the risks of cognitive offloading and suggests strategies for integrating AI thoughtfully without compromising critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The takeaway: while AI offers many conveniences, it’s crucial to balance its use to foster resilient, capable minds.00:00 Introduction to AI and Cognitive Impact01:01 AI in Education: Potential and Pitfalls01:40 Cognitive Offloading and Dependency04:30 The Importance of Handwriting07:47 Developmental Concerns with Early AI Use09:38 Critical Thinking and AI Reliance11:25 Guardrails and Solutions13:04 The Role of Productive Struggle16:17 AI Hallucinations and Misinformation18:43 Strategies for Thoughtful AI Integration24:19 Conclusion and Call to ActionVOTE FOR PSYBERSPACE THIS MONTH!
