Professor Bruce Hood from the Department of Experimental Psychology appeared on BBC Radio 4's Material World yesterday (Thursday 21 September) to talk about his research into superstition and belief.
Professor Hood presented some of his ideas earlier this month at the British Association Festival of Science, and attracted considerable media coverage.
