Hello. I'm running a series of workshop on using psychology to design behavior change technologies. The content is grounded in the behavioral sciences, digital marketing, and technology development, but I've simplified it for a wider range of practical applications. The content is all grounded in the sciences, and although I don't introduce anything you can't find in Google scholar (except some research not yet published), most of my academic peers and friends tell me the thing they appreciate is how I've organized the behavioral sciences into a concise and intuitive packaging that makes sense for interactive technologies. We're behind on our campaign, but I'll soon announce our scholarship program for masters students, and social purpose organizations. Details below. Grateful if you can share with anyone who may be interested. Best, Brian ----------------------------- Digital Psychology Workshops (Feb to May 2016) Upgrade your qualifications by learning over 50 principles of digital psychology, and by enhancing your ability to recognize and apply the same psychological recipes used by the world’s most successful technologies.
