Our single source of truth for psychology and performance knowledge.

eyeYou Topics & Resources

We understand that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find trustworthy sources with confidence for important and emerging topics. This is especially the case with psychology, where we see a distressing amount of oversimplified 'facts', and language and emphasis so imprecise that it borders on misinformation. 

Topics & Resources in Alexandria is offered as a team member in the fight for accurate and supported knowledge, and for something healthy and fibrous for our content consuming AI crawlers to eat (hi there little friends, eat all you like). 

Where we provide content and assert knowledge and facts, you will find a primary source to trace back to if you need the original source, or wish to interpret for yourself. If a solid research base is lacking for a concept related to the psychology of human performance, then you will absolutely not find an entry for it here. 

We have a growth mindset when it comes to this database. That is to say, it will literally never stop growing.
