I often lecture about the general misconceptions the public has about psychology; that psychologists are all therapists, that Freud is the father of Psych, etc. As I was going over such misconceptions, I noticed students in my class with Psych Club t-shirts that tend to promote such misconceptions. One shirt has some reference to id and egos, and another said something about psychologists do it better on the couch. I was a bit flummoxed, but just laughed it off. I began to wonder....I was wondering what kinds of images, stereotypes, or pop-psych ideas about psychology are promoted in other psych departments. Could there be sexy or catchy t-shirt ideas that might better represent psychology? The t-shirt isn't for educating the campus community but represents a campus Club's identity. Such ideas remain popular among our students---whether about Dr. Phil, Freud, or associating psych with clinical work. Perhaps such items as t-shirts would not sell unless they fit with pop-culture ideas?
