Claudia finds out about the results of their new study into the links between impulsivity and irrational beliefs, superstition and ritual and why some people may go on to become problem gamblers while others don't. Dr Luke Clark from Cambridge University explains.

Assistant Professor of Psychology, Lera Boroditsky talks to Claudia about the power of metaphor to change what we think.
