"I collected data on participants eye-movements, buttons clicked and time taken. I did 25 user tests and interpreted the data through statistical analysis, including a T-Test.

" The outcome revealed a link between a user's personality type and how they behave on a sign-up form website."

How much #stress is too much, and what can you do about it?

We’ll be discussing toxic stress with an expert in the field, Dr. Lawson Wulsin, at a free online webinar on Thursday, hosted by our health editor.

Dr. Wulsin has written about his work for us, too, in addition to his recent book:

Nice review of the evidence for banning phones in schools. This reviews huge studies across numerous countries. The big takeaway: there’s no effect on children’s outcomes. According to the latest evidence, cell phone bans don’t work.

We looked at all the recent evidence on mobile phone bans in schools – this is what we found

Our study suggests the evidence for banning mobile phones in schools is weak when you look at the impact on academic results, student wellbeing and cyberbullying.

I can confidently diagnose #betterhelp as sociopaths.

Promised therapy customers privacy...then gave their mental health info to advertisers.

Victims get less than ten bucks each.

Company made billion+ in revenue last year alone.

In a just society with good privacy laws, they'd face existential civil & criminal consequences.

Do probiotics and good gut health improve your mood, too?

Most likely!

Here’s the latest research:

Bacteria in your gut can improve your mood − new research in mice tries to zero in on the crucial strains

The organisms living in your gut microbiome can influence your mental and physical health. Researchers have developed a way to better test for those biological effects.

There’s an important gap between “hope” and “optimism.”

Hope is not just about looking on the bright side. It plays the long game: enduring suffering with integrity.

It’s something Martin Luther King understood when he said “I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land.” But hope makes us act, anyway.

Hope is not the same as optimism, a psychologist explains − just look at MLK’s example

Optimism can rely on a sense of luck, while hope is action-oriented − and often aimed at helping other people.

The goal: to have a comprehensive data driven understanding how multi-generational trauma shapes implicit bias in institutions, groups, familes etc and how it intertwines DK in community leaders.

So that we can work together to address these issues together!

Intergenerational Transmission of Trauma: The Mediating Effects of Family Health

Family health is important to the well-being of individual family members and the collective family unit, and as such, may serve as a mediator for the intergenerational transmission of trauma (ITT).

Op-ed: What we know about toxic chemicals and children’s mental health

"Evidence suggests chemical exposures are altering children’s brains. We need to tackle this interconnected crisis. "

".. a growing body of evidence connecting increased exposure to chemicals in the environment, such as lead, PFAS and BPA, to increased child mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression."
