How Our Minds Perceive the World (2016)

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / How Our Minds Perceive the World (2016)
Published: November 13, 2016 by VPR Producer

Does working crossword puzzles, Sudoku, and playing other games help prevent Alzheimer’s and dementia? Why does time seem to crawl when we’re young and speed up as we age? Does multitasking really help us get more done? We talk to a psychologist and author about these popular ideas and get the real story about how our minds can sometimes trick us into thinking things that really aren’t true.
