Psychologist Corinne Usher on travel

The Why Factor

Available for over a year

Psychology has shown that travel - even just thinking about other countries - broadens our minds and makes us more creative. Here, clinical psychologist Corinne Usher explains how an experiment at Indiana University showed that believing a question was posed abroad makes us think more creatively about it than if we think it was formulated by people nearby.
