Dr. Brandon Dahm, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Franciscan University of Steubenville, and Dr. Matthew Breuninger, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Franciscan University of Steubenville, present these different disciplinary understandings of habits at the event “Habit or Habitus? Virtue Theory vs. Psychology on the Nature of Habit”. The event was part of the Disciplinary Intersection Series at Franciscan University of Steubenville.
