@gaveltri.bsky.social and I have a new paper (in Open Access) in Frontiers in Behavioural Economics. We explore how understanding heterogeneity, can lead to better knowledge of mechanisms of BPP toolkits, which then allows us to personalise delivery of BIs. Read more here: doi.org/10.3389/frbh...

For a while, Giuseppe & I have been thinking about using CSS to answer some of the pertinent questions in BeSci. We explain in this piece forthcoming in Fron. in Beh. Econ., understanding heterogeneity could be a way to explain mechanisms which help personalise: www.frontiersin.org/journals/beh...

Probably for the first time in my *short career* I heard positive things from both reviewers. Also, this is the first journal we sent to. Makes me question, if I did the right research after all, no one criticises it? Funny how we question ourselves when the right thing happens!!!

Many are bringing up the fact that good research is often rejected by top journals! Thaler pointed out on X recent Nobel winning med work was rejected by #Nature & #Science! But does knowledge of this cause one to falsely believe their work is good when rejected by top journals? Self-serving bias?

So the other place is meant to be a safe place unlike X? I’m still figuring out whether I should shut down my X account, do we have a norm to follow, fellow other placers?
