My TED talk would be about the confidence of modern adolescents. Though many adolescents today may seem over confident, many studies have shown that they in fact are not.
Thats cool, probably true too. Mine would be on the effects religions have on economies Positive externalities, morality, and other stuff like that
Wow that is interesting, and definitely something that is real in our society today! how do you think morality effects an economy?
Its the idea of the behavioral psycological theory and the risk assement study by tyversky and kahneman. Religion provides a danger (going to hell or outer darkness or whateve Then they choose to do the good, kind thing like services and helping others for free
That's pretty awesome. It's make sense too, because a lot of places where many people serve others, have shown to have an economical influence, such as standard of living.
Yeah I had to write a year long paper on that one The confidence thing is super important too, if everyone just fakes it a lot of bad things can happen
That is indeed a very long paper. Glad you know a lot about it now though haha Yes and confidence is very vital to the decisions and morality of others. If one lacks confidence, the basis of say ones networking capability is significantly lower
Especially if they are moving on to college like we are. That lack of famelial structure and familiarity could be crushing without confidence
Though modern adolescents do need to know the difference between confidence and cockiness, and that's just other factors. Cockiness could be detrimental to one's social structure
Ive found that cockiness is just people trying to make up for a lacl of confidence Or they are just pampered or actually cocky sometimes
