Rowan psychologist tells Nature to 'wade into the unknown'
October 3, 2023
In a Nature feature story about intellectual humility, Rowan University psychologist Tenelle Porter, Ph.D., advises readers to confront knowledge gaps.
“Intellectual humility can really help us listen to those who don’t have the same ways of knowing as we do,” or those with a different expertise, she says.
It helps to remember that it is impossible to know everything, Porter told the journal.
“You have to be willing to wade into the unknown to make new discoveries.”
