I am re-publishing this article which was the first I ever wrote online, and somehow also my most popular. While I no longer do “behavioral science” as defined here, you might notice some similar themes.
I still cringe at my first attempts to design a behavior change intervention. It was like I had looked at a Behavioral Science textbook and thrown all my ideas at the problem, hoping something might stick. As a result, the solutions I developed were uninformed by the problem, the goal, and the constraints of the situation.
Good news! I got LASIK since this picture, and I no longer wear glasses. This reduced my nerdiness by approximately 42%.
