Nervous Habits with Ricky Rosen

Nervous Habits host Ricky Rosen is joined by Best-Selling Author, Researcher, Behavior Scientist and Founder of the Stanford Behavior Design Lab Dr. BJ Fogg to explore issues including:

—The evolutionary advantage to habits, and whether other animals exhibit them,

—How habits make multi-tasking (or task-switching) possible,

—The incentive shift from extrinsically motivated behavior to intrinsically motivated behavior,

—The tiny habits recipe to adopting new behaviors, and finally…

—How Dr. Fogg is using the principles of behavior design on projects ranging from screen-time reduction to climate action.
