How do the groups you identify with shape your sense of self? Do they influence the beer you buy? The way you vote?

Then, look out! There's a g-g-g-ghost! Psychologist Coltan Scrivner answers listener questions about the surprising benefits of scary entertainment. We're excited to share that Hidden Brain is coming to YouTube!
