Here is my #introduction. I’m interested in nature, urbanism, and healthy paths forward for humanity and the planet. Professionally, I’m an Associate Professor of #psychology at #IllinoisTech in Chicago. My research interests include #MotivationScience and #DigitalHealth #BehavioralMedicine #Masculinity #IntrinsicMotivation #Games and #SelfDeterminationTheory. Here to connect with interesting people of all stripes. Happy #tooting!
@saralobkovich we might have something to talk about. #TeamingScience informs #MotivationScience. (For Tooters who use a reader, multi word hashtags are easier to understand when the individual words are capitalized.)

Ok, longshot:

(2) Researchers who can speak to how work affects the reward centers in our brains (and what workplace policies and practices are research-supported as better for our brains / cognitive performance)

here yet? Seeking SME #podcast guests for #ThinkyDoers. Referrals / volunteers welcome!

#Academic #research #CognitiveScience #BehavioralScience

Hey, #academics and #researchers in #MotivationScience :

I’m looking to connect with SMEs in the cognition and behavior of goal setting and achievement (or lack thereof). Specifically seeking a podcast guest for an episode on why some people tend to exhibit more task-oriented behavior and some people tend to exhibit more outcome- / goal-oriented behavior.

Help a gal out?
