The #Monopoly experiment on #inequality was conducted in 2006, 10 years before the archetype of entitled cheating power-grabber #Trump got elected. The experiment shows how winners of a rigged game lose empathy & start believing in their own merit. The media extensively covered this experiment at the time; yet the #USA still blasted through, producing more egotistic maniacs like #ElonMusk. #Psy #nudges of #community #compassion do change this dynamic: this work is URGENT🚨 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJ8Kq1wucsk&list=PLOGi5-fAu8bGgZFDYGhQ6uywa5GNeA2RT

Great to hear Professor Cass Sunstein at the BEST Centre at the QUT Faculty of Business and Law, and quiz him about the use of graphic health warnings as a nudge in the US and Australia. #behaviouraleconomics #nudges #law #economics #health https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7087307872400781312/

Next was an enjoyable discussion with Richard Thaler on choice architecture and #nudges at the #LSE. While this is a good overview of the underlying theory and what nudges can and can't do, Thaler's techno-solutionism is troubling, especially when he brings up the superiority of algorithms to people in the bail context (see, for example, https://www.propublica.org/article/how-we-analyzed-the-compas-recidivism-algorithm) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEkfqQAp6wk (4/6) #psychology

Terrific reminder that we can use many aspects of #BehavioralDesign to improve #healthcare outcomes. #ChoiceArchitecture #Commitments #defaults #framing #nudges https://www.healthaffairs.org/content/forefront/building-evidence-assure-accurate-and-timely-diagnosis

Been noticing a new trend in communications from your health care provider? Lots of texts, lots of email reminders? You’re being ‘nudged’. The advent of digital devices and communications/connectivity has led to the use of ‘nudges’ by the medical community - a derivative of behavioral economics. That led one doctor to write this: The Soft Tyranny of Modern Medicine #medicine #healthcare #doctors #behavioralecononomics #nudges https://compactmag.com/article/the-soft-tyranny-of-modern-medicine

Les recherches abordent peu l’utilisation des incitatifs comportementaux (aussi appelés #nudges ou coups de pouce) en contexte d’#apprentissage. Celles qui le font sont plutôt centrées sur les enfants. Voici quelques pistes pour implanter les incitatifs comportementaux au collégial.

2/ Once-upon-a-decade-plus-ago #SMS #2fa was the canonical #security tip.

Two factor #authentication is still *the recommendation* but the times change, better options are available, but lots of companies aren't keeping up.

#Platforms & companies need to make more secure second factors the default for new account creation.

People need #nudges.

And just making it a hard-to-do option means many, many fewer users take advantage.

Those ‘kudos’ you can give people on Strava and other physical activity apps, do those #nudges work? Well, yes, but not in the way you might expect.

Nice new research by Rob Franken, Hidde Bekhuis, and Jochem Tolsma from @Radboud_uni

Super intéressant - "Suis-je mon cerveau ?" #Nudges #Neoliberalisme #ScienceCognitives https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/108567-004-A/suis-je-mon-cerveau/

Phone offline. Google Maps still able to show driving directions. Biking or walking? Nope. #Google, don't be evil.

Bonus feature: You know I've never driven anywhere, ever. Stop defaulting to driving directions.

Master level: Default to biking directions for everyone if it's under 10 miles in a place like #NYC. #Nudges #cycling

Is tipping getting out of control? https://apnews.com/article/tipping-fatigue-business-c4ae9d440610dae5e8ff4d4df0f88c35
#Tipping #nudges are very successful. But they have begun to create social pressures that make it doubtful customers feel they are an improvement to their well-being. Their decision making #autonomy is hurt.

@Mor ALT text for second prompt that GPT gets wrong:
#Human (#Winograd): "A large ball crashed through a table because it was made of steel. What was made of steel?"
#ChatGPT: "The table was made of steel..."

I wonder if #prompt order and proximity matter? The styrofoam rendering of this schema was prompted right before this, #priming the bot to fail.

When do "Nudges" Increase Welfare?

by Hunt Allcott, Daniel Cohen, William Morrison & Dmitry Taubinsky

They characterize the #welfare effects of #nudges using public finance sufficient statistic approaches.

My understanding of their results: nudges increase beneficial behaviors but also may decrease welfare, because they increase the variance of distortions.

I like this #introduction tradition, so here goes!

I'm a Master's student studying #computerscience at the University of Manitoba in #Winnipeg in the #HCI lab. Currently, I'm studying the use of #nudges in #banking systems designed for informal #caregivers of older adults (#aging).

I try to stay super active, playing #ultimate #frisbee and #hockey, #triathlon training, and #hiking. When confined inside I spend my time playing and listening to all sorts of #music and playing #boardgames.

My questions. With the massive influx of Twitter users on Mastodon, will the platform be able to maintain its distinctive subculture ? Are the system features strong enough to induce and sustain civil behaviour? Can the #nudges make us more pleasant?
