Podatek 1¢/oz na słodzone napoje w Cook County zredukował zakupy o 22.5%, ale efekt zniknął natychmiast po jego uchyleniu. Krótkie bodźce cenowe zmieniają zachowania tylko na chwilę bez trwałych norm i kontekstu wybory szybko wracają do starej równowagi.

School cellphone bans work, but only after an adjustment year. First comes a spike in suspensions, then test scores rise and absences drop. A classic behavioral adaptation pattern, especially in schools with high smartphone use.

How does the design of social media content controls shape users’ choice? Evidence from an online experiment | Behavioural Public Policy | Cambridge Core How does the design of social media content controls shape users’ choice? Evidence from an online experiment

Defaults for “sensitive content” tend to stick with us, even when platforms say we’re in control. An RCT shows tiny UI tweaks + status quo bias quietly decide how much harmful content we see long before any “informed choice” kicks in.

Valuing life | Behavioural Public Policy | Cambridge Core Valuing life - Volume 9 Issue 2

Paul Slovic shows a hard truth: our empathy doesn’t scale. We care deeply about one life, but as numbers rise, compassion fades and costs dominate attention. “Psychic numbing” isn’t a data problem but a human one.

Dark patterns and sludge audits: an integrated approach | Behavioural Public Policy | Cambridge Core Dark patterns and sludge audits: an integrated approach

Dark patterns aren’t UX trivia. They’re deliberate design moves that steer people toward choices they wouldn’t make on their own. New Dark Patterns Auditing Framework shows how platforms create friction: detours, endless loops, “easy” shortcuts, and forced actions.

Most people would use cell phones despite an emergency request for a pause | Behavioural Public Policy | Cambridge Core Most people would use cell phones despite an emergency request for a pause

Większość ludzi ignoruje alerty kryzysowe, nawet jeśli chodzi o utrzymanie działania sieci dla służb ratunkowych.
Badanie pokazuje, że 55–68% osób po alertach dalej używałoby telefonu do streamów, sociali i nagrywania wideo.

How economics teaching became the Aeroflot of ideas The discipline is failing students by ignoring the biggest social, political and ecological challenges facing the world today

We should all think like freaks!Levitt and Dubner told us so!"Economics today resembles Catholic theology in medieval Europe().Dissenters are shunned.Non-economists are told to “think like an economist” or not think at all."

Dark personalities in the digital arena: how psychopathy and narcissism shape online political participation - Humanities and Social Sciences Communications Humanities and Social Sciences Communications - Dark personalities in the digital arena: how psychopathy and narcissism shape online political participation

New research finds that people “with both high psychopathy and low cognitive ability are the most actively involved in online political engagement”

This is something I’ve observed in many political arguments online and it’s why I try to avoid online debates.
