In this episode of Better Thinking, Nesh Nikolic speaks with Dr Kinga Szymaniak about the impacts of anger on the way we think and act, and how it shapes our decisions and judgments.

Kinga Szymaniak is a Research Associate in the School of Psychology at UNSW. She was awarded her PhD in 2022 from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Warsaw, Poland. Kinga’s research interests revolve around emotions (with a focus on anger), cognition, and behaviour. Kinga’s goal is to better understand the mechanisms underling associations with anger and their implications for psychological health and well-being.

Currently, Kinga is a Postdoctoral Researcher in a lab directed by Prof. Eddie Harmon-Jones, where she has the opportunity to investigate the associations between humility, anger, and aggression using methods from experimental psychology, psychophysiology, and affective and cognitive neuroscience.
