A recent study revealed that calorie labeling raised awareness but didn't reduce caloric intake. It emphasizes that knowledge must operate within a supportive system to drive change, highlighting the need for more effective use of knowledge for behavior change.

After 100 years of studying the common cold, we understand it better, but we are suffering just as much as back then. And much of the 1925 advice is still remarkably pertinent: buff.ly/Zyg1xtu

Research by Glickman & Sharot reveals how human–AI interactions increase human bias—AIs tend to amplify biases, and humans, unaware of the extent of their influence, become more susceptible to it, which then triggers a snowball effect: https://buff.ly/3BDDvNc

For anyone interested in ontologies and their application to behavioural and social sciences (a niche group now but hopefully mainstream in a few years), here's an intro to the next phase of the Human Behaviour Change Project - called APRICOT wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/9-7...

Last week, a new study on calorie labelling in England revealed an important finding: while the policy increased awareness of calorie content, it didn’t lead to measurable reductions in caloric intake. Let's take a closer look! #behaviorchange
