⚽Take our experiment: studies.labinthewild.org/idv-col/?REF... to discover if you are more individualistic or collectivist, learn how it relates to your views on online privacy, and see how you compare with people around the world. #WorldCup #CitizenScience #Psychology #ComputerScience

Alt: Reads “Some fans celebrate every goal in a packed stadium or watch party. Others prefer cheering in a smaller group from the comfort of home. Your preferences may reflect whether you lean more individualistic or collectivist. Take our experiment to learn how you lean, and see if it matches your celebration style!” There is a graphic of people cheering and a soccer ball.

These studies keep showing us that people are beautifully different, and technology that ignores that does a disservice. Thank you to every single person who participated and made this research possible. This is your science too. ❤️ #science #citizenscience #computerscience #psychology #technology

Curious about how you perceive information compared to people around the world? Take our experiment called “Is your perception more Eastern or Western?”: studies.labinthewild.org/frameline/?R...

Reads “Did you know: East Asians tend to perceive information more holistically compared to Westerners?”. There is an image of the Earth in the background
