Jessica Tracy, a UBC psychology professor and the author of the book Take Pride, spoke to KERA Public Radio about the types of pride and the associated intricacies.
“When people feel authentic pride they actually have greater empathy towards other people, especially those who are different from them. So it fosters this sort of communal sense, this thing that is great for relationships,” she said.
Tracy also discussed the ways the U.S. presidential candidates uses pride in different ways.
She was also interviewed on Roundhouse Radio.
