What really changes behaviour? | Professor Susan Michie

When it comes to changing behaviour, what really works? How well? For how long? With who? Why? Professor Susan Michie describes how the Human Behaviour Change Project is trying to revolutionise evidence synthesis and use to answer the big questions about human choices.
The Human Behaviour Change Project is developing an artificial intelligence system to continually scan the world literature on behaviour change, extract key information, and use this to build and update a model of human behaviour.

Proof that over education of those without wisdom is highly dangerous to society.

I totally agree with you there. The only member of my family who went to Uni, is the only one who still believes all the lies.

[@lesliesurette5010]

Came to see, "what really changes behavior?" But that's not what the video shows. Its possible they know because they seem to have done a tremendous amount of research and are very smart.

[@Aspartame69]

Wow, having a communist explain human nature is peak absurdity.

[@davidgraham8058]

It really does explain her obsession with population mind control. She’s determined to make people live under government restrictions forever. She’s a socialist tyrant essentially.

[@derekdreery]

Can someone explain all the negative comments. It all seems pretty standard social science: research starts messy with different terms for the same thing and different ways of reporting results, then over time people try to standardize the language to make it easier to communicate and therefore make research happen faster.

She's a big part of why the British population has been purposely and needlessly terrorised. Many many people have been driven to suicide or near it. This woman is so wildly out of touch that I believe she may be psychotic. The British Psychological Society, in April this year, mounted an extraordinary defence of her. Similarly stunningly blind to the relationship between economy (jobs/income) and health - and 'freedoms' ('freedom' to see and be supported by friends and family if vulnerable/elderly for instance!) and health. The lot of them disgust me, they don't deserve to bear the name 'psychologists' and Michie has clearly caused immeasurable serious harm, she's now suggesting cloth masks and social distancing should stay forever!- She needs to be removed from any position of influence with immediate effect. www.bps.org.uk/news-and-policy/joint-statement-media-professor-susan-michie

She's a hard-core marxist . Head of Britain's commie party. Behaviour expert, and advisor to Boris. Totally benign of course

[@jaykaiser1754]

@@cemoihonay your link is full of gaslighting. They might have just as well said these people making the claims about Michie are conspiracy theorists. They are psychologists, so all they know are mental games. Do you got a different link, by chance?

[@onlybugwit]

Basically,, all this boring rubbish she is spouting is unwanted, out of date and not fit for purpose for and by anyone to use for anything. So why the video??

[@6brman10]

Yes, why has it appeared now, particularly? Her political leanings were revealed at least a year ago.

[@Slarti]

Nothing like an academic to overcomplicate what is simply woo woo.

[@thewholeofsoul4929]

Sounds like a load of collectivist waffle to me. Are taxpayers really forced to pay for this unintelligible nonsense 😄😄

[@anticorruption4305]

It doesn't help this woman being a full blown communist, can't believe Boris has this woman manipulating our behaviour. I was shocked looking up her background.

[@trevorwylie5882]

she's the reason i stopped watching covid updates

[@JJ-te2pi]

She's on "Independent Sage" not the real Sage. She's a non entity.

[@caroldouglas9508]

@@trevorwylie5882 My reason for stopping believing the lies (becoming more aware) was when I found out near the start that doctors were being paid to put covid on death certificates, and then GPs etc. being paid (coerced) for doing the jabs. Shameful, unethical, behaviour all round.

What's more chilling is that this Communist witch, is in the WHO.

ADMIN NOTE UPDATE: Keep. It. Civil. This is a video from an academic conference in 2019. We are pleased to be able to share videos of scientists talking about their work, of all kinds, with everyone. Check out our channel for some fantastic research on stopping HIV, preventing childhood blindness, and more. However. Some people have decided to use this video as a place for encouraging violence, ad hominem attacks and violent threats. This is absolutely unacceptable. All will be reported and deleted. Keep it civil people. Robust discussions, personal opinions, reactions to the video are all still very welcome.
