All my work is open - and you can use images from it without seeking my permission as long as it is correctly cited. Every week I get requests in relation to COM-B or the Behaviour Change Wheel. No need to request- the answer is always yes! #OpenScience

Starter packs seem to be the new thing here, so I created a Health Psychology Researchers started pack for everyone who would like to connect with fellow academics or learn about our research. #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky #digitalhealth

Behavioral science policy recommendations early in the pandemic were *largely correct*. Our global collaboration of 80+ experts covers 747 studies (average sample size over 16,000!) & supports 16 of 19 claims. Many lessons for science & policy.

Made a new feed of posts from all sleep researchers I know of on bsky, plus a few keywords. There is not a ton here, but this has been useful to me and maybe will grow.

To be added/removed from this list, email me or reply here.

Can also post using #sleepresearch.

I am deeply sorry to say that my dear professor, my mentor, beloved father of two children, and the most creative social psychologist I've ever met, Prof. Doğan Kökdemir, has passed away. He will be greatly missed by all. 💐
