Think Again is a book about the benefit of doubt, and about how we can get better at embracing the unknown and the joy of being wrong. Evidence has shown that creative geniuses are not attached to one identity, but constantly willing to rethink their stances and that leaders who admit they don't know something and seek critical feedback lead more productive and innovative teams.
New evidence shows us that as a mindset and a skilllset, rethinking can be taught and Grant explains how to develop the necessary qualities to do it. Section 1 explores why we struggle to think again and how we can learn to do it as individuals, arguing that 'grit' alone can actually be counterproductive.
Section 2 discusses how we can help others think again through learning about 'argument literacy'. And the final section 3 looks at how schools, businesses and governments fall short in building cultures that encourage rethinking.
In the end, learning to rethink may be the secret skill to give you the edge in a world changing faster than ever. Genres Nonfiction Psychology Self Help Business Audiobook Personal Development Leadership Loading interface In the reduced model, participants in the violent game conditions pulled the trigger at themselves or their partner more than participants in the nonviolent condition.
The effect was significant for the gun violence condition IRR, The ordering of adjusted medians across conditions was in the predicted direction ie, 3. In the full model, the gun IRR, 6. Table 4 presents the results of negative binomial regression models for the covariates. Self-reported exposure to violent media was positively associated with total trigger pulls IRR, 1. Predicted interest in guns was positively associated with total trigger pulls IRR, 2.
Having a stricter attitude toward guns was negatively associated with total trigger pulls IRR, 0. Children with at least 1 gun in the home were less likely to pull the trigger at themselves or their partners IRR, 0.
Children who had taken a firearm safety course pulled the trigger fewer times IRR, 0. In this study, playing a violent video game increased the likelihood that children would touch a real handgun, increased time spent holding a handgun, and increased pulling the trigger at oneself and others.
It did not influence total trigger pulls. While each of the outcomes point in the predicted direction, some were nonsignificant, perhaps because of insufficient statistical power. Compared with exposure to sword violence, exposure to gun violence produced larger effects in time spent holding a handgun and possibly pulling the trigger at oneself or others, suggesting that exposure to gun violence is different than exposure to other types of violence.
This may be because media violence with a gun more easily translates onto handling and shooting a real gun compared with other types of violence. These results are consistent with social learning theory 5 in that using a gun in the video game yielded positive outcomes ie, killing hostile monsters and opening more chests. Effects were not larger for video game players than for watchers, suggesting that modeling may be the underlying mechanism for the observed effects.
This study partially replicates the findings of the movie study by Dillon and Bushman. This study also found long-term effects of exposure to media violence—children who habitually consumed violent media were more likely to shoot at themselves or their partners independent of condition. Thus, although a single exposure to video game violence may only have short-term effects on dangerous behavior around guns, habitual exposure to violent media could also be a risk factor.
The findings were robust to demographic characteristics. Short-term and long-term effects were found for boys and girls, regardless of whether they played or watched the game. Other risk factors can also influence whether children engage in dangerous behavior around real guns. We controlled for some likely risk factors ie, sex, age, trait aggressiveness, violent media consumption, whether the participant had taken a firearm safety course, firearms in the home, attitudes toward guns, and interest in firearms , but there are many others we did not examine eg, developmental risk factors, low IQ score, living in a high-crime neighborhood, emotion regulation difficulties, impulsiveness, risk-taking tendencies.
We found that having taken firearm safety courses reduced some risky behavior around handguns, although a study 16 on the efficacy of these courses had mixed results. The results of this study were also mixed because children who had taken a firearm safety course pulled the trigger more times while pointing a handgun at themselves or their partner, although the effect was nonsignificant.
Additionally, children with guns in the home were less likely to engage in dangerous behaviors, which may reflect gun-owning parents or guardians teaching their children principles of firearm safety.
This study had limitations. Although we tried to mimic a real-world setting ie, finding a gun hidden in a drawer , this study was conducted in an artificial setting—a university laboratory. We predict even stronger effects might have been observed in more realistic settings for a variety of reasons. For example, participants might feel less inhibited in a home setting than in a laboratory setting, owing to both familiarity and to not being monitored. In addition, some participants thought the handguns were fake, stating that a researcher would not leave a real gun in a university laboratory.
Future research should replicate these findings in a more natural setting. Another limitation is that participants spanned a large and developmentally important age range. Age was significantly related to 2 outcome measures. However, the ages did not differ across conditions. Another limitation is that the Minecraft video game we used was not very violent eg, crude graphics, no blood and gore. Violence ratings for the violent conditions were lower than 2 on a scale of 0 to 4 Table 2. Also, the relatively short duration of gameplay may not have given time to reinforce learning via direct experience, potentially explaining the lack of differences between players and watchers.
A more violent game might yield stronger results. An additional limitation was using self-report data for several variables. It would be useful for future research to obtain reports from others eg, parents, teachers, peers.
It is well established that consumption of violent media increases aggression in children in both the short and long term. Our study highlights another danger of violent media exposure: it increases dangerous behavior around firearms. In addition, habitual exposure to violent media was a risk factor for dangerous behavior around real guns. As such, parents and guardians should be cognizant of the risk associated with exposure to violent media.
Most importantly, gun owners should secure their firearms. Published: May 31, doi: Correction: This article was corrected on June 28, , to indicate adjusted values in Table 3 and the Results section.

With the latest mass shooting, we are all struggling to figure out how to reduce gun violence in the US. This study examines what most people are worried about- that children playing violent video games have more violent behavior and in this case risky behavior around guns.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST: Editor in Chief, JAMA Network Open. Supplemental Analyses: Whether Participants Pulled the Trigger of the Gun at Any Target and at Themselves or Another. Brad Bushman, Ph. The Ohio State University. Shooting the gun and shooting the gun while aiming at oneself or another can be analyzed in two different ways: the total number of trigger pulls or if a participant pulls the trigger at least once.
Because the former is continuous and the latter is binary, we reported the continuous analyses in the article. But it is also interesting to analyze whether participants decided to pull the trigger or not.
We report those binary analyses in this comment. The binary results were analyzed using a 3 gun vs. sword vs.
nonviolent X 2 pulled the trigger at least once vs. did not pull the trigger chi-square analysis. Pairwise comparisons were also conducted using chi-square tests. PULLED TRIGGER ANY TARGET Gun violence condition: 18 children pulled the trigger and 58 did not PULLED TRIGGER SELF OR ANOTHER Gun violence condition: 13 children pulled the trigger and 63 did not The two violent conditions did not differ from each other.
Importantly, both pairs were eliminated before we knew how they would impact our analyses and whether their results would support our hypotheses. Pair Although there were several pairs where one child held or fired the gun many times than the other child, there was only one pair where both children pulled the trigger more than 5 standard deviations above the mean.
Finally, this is also the only pair that includes an individual child who was above 5 standard deviations above the mean on all three outcomes. We excluded this pair before looking at the modeled output. Pair This pair was excluded because the coders said the children were acting crazy and were out of control e.
Two of the three coders recommended excluding them. Importantly, the three coders rated pairs independently and were blind to condition.
This pair was excluded before we knew what their data looked like or what condition they had been randomized into. In sum, these pairs of children were qualitatively different than any other pairs of children we tested, and we thought and still think they should be excluded from the analyses.
We suspect that most researchers would agree with our decision to exclude pair However, some researchers might disagree with our decision to exclude pair Thus, we re-ran all of the analyses with pair 70 included.
The statistical significance of findings changed for trigger pulls at self or another, but not for the other outcomes. These differences are noted below, and the analyses are uploaded to figshare and Dataverse. The basic pattern of results did not change. Joe Hilgard, PhD Illinois State University. The authors report an interesting experiment. However, I think they overinterpret and oversell the results. The published results inspect four outcomes: whether children touch the gun, how long they hold it, how many times they pull the trigger, and how many times they pull the trigger while the gun is pointed at somebody.
Of these, one is statistically significant, two are marginally significant, and one is flatly nonsignificant. However, the discussion considers these marginally significant results as though they were statistically significant.
In Vallejo, Governor Newsom signs sweeping climate measures into law With multiple oil refineries in the distance, the Governor signed the legislation alongside legislative leaders at the USDA Forest Service Regional Office on Mare Island, a facility powered by clean energy that also feeds the grid. Atkins D-San Diego.
We provided the tools industry needs to capture and store carbon before it hits the atmosphere. And we invested in critical infrastructure programs that will keep us firmly planted on the path to a greener future, while simultaneously creating jobs that will support families across the state. California has, and will continue to, lead the nation on not only addressing the worsening climate crisis, but finding proactive solutions. I look forward to working on additional climate change legislation with the Governor and the Senate.
We are just getting started. Last week, Governor Newsom signed legislation to help protect Californians from more frequent and severe heat waves driven by climate change. In a July letter to the Chair of the California Air Resources Board CARB , Governor Newsom called for the state to ensure that the Climate Change Scoping Plan provides a path to achieve both the climate goal and state carbon neutrality no later than , requesting that the final plan incorporate new efforts to advance offshore wind, clean fuels, climate-friendly homes, carbon removal and address methane leaks.
