Interested if any UXR people have come across optimism bias in their research. Did you weight your results differently? Nice article here about it- bigthink.com/the-learning... #uxr #psychology
Why the “optimism bias” rules our hopes for the future
It's estimated that a quarter of people’s optimism variability is due to genes. That leaves plenty of room for us to learn and grow.

Great article on motivation and categorizing it. This is great way to give 'motivations' a contextual grounding for UX. arxiv.org/pdf/2410.12991. #uxr #contextualanalysis

Was reading this short article bigthink.com/business/moo... about mood. Reminded me that I would like to see more UXR integration of mood/emotion into its surveys/interviews. A simple one like the BMIS Brief mood introspection scale can give you clearer context of a respondents answers. #uxr
