How many of us have articulated our ethics as applied to our professional work? Arguably behavioural scientists should all have a crack at it. Here is a substack article setting out what I think may be mine, with apologies for the corny AI-generated image! robertwest100.substack.com/p/what-makes...

In a study that may surprise some or may surprise no one... Participants don't read consent forms. They spend about 8 seconds on them, older people are more likely to have read , but really 6-17% could have even skimmed. Ethical & practical issues abound. osf.io/npa3b/downlo... #metasky #phdsky

I often have people telling me that if we just change the name that will get people on board. Newsflash: it won't. Better news: here's what will-helping people connect what they know (their heads) to why they care (their hearts) to what they can do (their hands)! ewn.erdc.dren.mil/podcasts/epi...

📢 We're looking to speak to people from UK companies in roles that could influence their company's energy supply. E.g. estate managers, CSR / sustainability related roles, directors or owners of small companies etc.
Photo of a wind farm, with text "do you have influence over your company's choice of energy supplier? If so please consider taking part in our research study. Your input could help us to develop interventions to help companies switch to renewable energies."

Important to combine tractable research questions with a complex systems approach to conceptualising problems & their solutions or mitigations. This paper is definitely worth reading.
