Today's guest is dr. Stephan Schleim, Associate Professor in Theory and History of Psychology at the Heymans Institute. We discussed why students should care about the development of a theory of (psychological) science, the changes in examination methods during the COVID-19 crisis, and how to deal with increasing performance and excellence demands in academia and education.
Stephan also shared his personal movie and book suggestions, including his all-time favourite book and Graham Greene's book "A Burn-out case". As Stephan says, "I recently read this novel, because it is used by some scholars as an argument that burn-out always existed. I investigated how much burn-out as it is described in the novel corresponds with our present understanding of the syndrome."
