The Developing Architecture of a Child’s BrainMost people believe that with loving care, babies will naturally develop into healthy children. New science emphasizes that the developing brain is directly shaped by experience – an idea that is often difficult for laypeople to understand or accept. Cultural Logic developed an explanation based on the idea that experience affects the architecture of a baby’s brain. Testing demonstrates that this explanation greatly increases laypeople’s ability to learn new information. |

Public Structures in American LifeAmericans have an increasingly dim opinion of Government. Cultural Logic’s research established that this is due in part to a conceptual blindness to what it is that Government actually does. An explanation based on the idea that Government’s job is to build and maintain the public structures that benefit everyone – things like highways, schools, court systems, and consumer protections – has revolutionized how advocates talk about Government’s role. |

Not so for global warming, despite decades of news coverage that uses the simplifying idea of a “greenhouse effect.” Cultural Logic tested dozens of alternative explanations before settling on the (now widely-used) explanation that global warming is caused by a blanket of carbon dioxide. |
