Genuine question to psychologists and other social scientists here: Have you been taught/Are you teaching that when designing a study/survey you should not ask about demographic stuff first? If so, what was the explanation given to you/you give?

I want to help you understand habits so you can create a better life Psychology Today summarizes some of my methods. Not quite how I'd say it, but it's okay Quoting someone else, the article says give yourself a reward like a coffee. My view: That's an incentive. Not a reward More in comments

- The world is awful. - The world is much better. - The world can be SO much better. Given many global problems come from how people think, feel or behave on their own or in groups, #BSci practitioners are uniquely placed to have positive impact. I’m making data collection easier, how about you?

Hey, Bluesky. I’ve written a new book. It’s about the messy science of screen time, our relationship with digital tech, and how we can make that healthier and better. I’m excited to be able to share the cover with you! It’s out in March, but you can pre-order now. Details next…
