Christmas behaviour
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We downed some eggnog and decided to record an impromptu Christmas special. We have a chat about how insights from behavioural science might help the festive holidays proceed more smoothly:
š Why Joe's team might think (in his own words) that heās an āegotistical a*&holeā.
š§ A simple way to feel better about Christmas (but you might not like it).
š The nudges that retailers use to get us to buy.
šµ Gift cards or cash as a present ā to constrain or not to constrain?
š¤ Do New Yearās resolutions get a bad rap and how can we can structure them to give a better chance of success?
šæ Our favourite Christmas movie as a metaphor for decision-making and a gift that helps people understand their value to the world.
Wherever you are, however you celebrate (or donāt), we hope that you have get some high-quality time with family and friends over the festive period.
Weāll see you on the other side.
