During the launch of the COVID-19 vaccine, a significant amount of content circulated expressing skepticism about the reliability and trustworthiness of the available vaccines.
As individuals, our tendency to be influenced by the actions and emotions of others becomes particularly pronounced when faced with uncertainties, which also extends to our perceptions of vaccines.
In our HRW Shift‘s latest podcast, Alexandra Petrache, Senior Behavioural Science Analyst and Dana Al-Juburi, Research Manager, explore the impact of language in vaccine distribution and discuss strategies including leveraging social identity, incorporating personal anecdotes and stories to evoke emotions, and the benefits of transparency about limitations and uncertainties of the vaccines. -
Harvard data shows that over the years, implicit bias against race, sexuality, age, and disability have all decreased. However, implicit bias against those who are overweight is the only group bias that has become more severe over time.
It is plausible that exposure to more positive thin people and negative overweight people in society could be responsible for the strengthening of implicit anti-fat bias. Social media platforms are a key leader when it comes to the ‘thin ideal’, with the prevalence of photo manipulation, and the pressure to confirm to beauty standards and present this as an online highlight.
In HRW Shift’s latest podcast, Alex, Senior Behavioural Science Analyst, Millie, Research Executive and cofounder of HRW Eavesdrop, our innovative social media listening offering that is soon to be launched, are joined by @Emma, who is currently training to be a psychotherapist, with a background in Behavioural Science (specifically discourse analysis), as they share part 2 of our 3-part podcast series surrounding social media and mental health, discussing social media’s impact on the perfect body image, and how we can keep our biases in check.

-"What we don't talk about when we talk about fat" by Aubrey Gordon -
The so-called reality or standards that social media continues to enforce is reshaping people’s social norms and attitudes, leaving more and more people left with either very poor self-esteem, or with the motivation to reach those standards take on very physically and mentally unhealthy behaviours and attitudes.
Join Alexandra Petrache, Senior Behavioural Science Analyst and Millie Morgan, Research Executive and cofounder of HRW Eavesdrop, our innovative social media listening offering, as they share part 1 of our 3-part podcast series surrounding the relationship between social media, mental health and the depiction around these social aspects online using linguistic analysis techniques.

We are happy to present part two of our series exploring the common biases that HCPs and patients face! In our latest we explored some of the biases that often crop up in HCP research and strategies to counter them. Today we'll be discussing the biases that we repeatedly encounter in patient research and how to best respond to them.
Tune in as our behavioral scientists help elucidate the patient experience and run through biases such as emotional overload, learned helplessness, illusion of transparency, and many more! -

"You scratch my back, I scratch yours". Standard economics considers individuals selfish, but behavioural economics explains that reciprocity (returning someone's actions)is an evolutionarily ingrained concept, which we see at play every day: have you ever bought or considered buying a product when someone offered you a sample? Have you put more effort into a work-out because the trainer was nice?
Join Tony Jiang, Behavioural Science Analyst, and Alexandra Petrache, Senior Behavioural Science Analyst, as they discuss reciprocity!
*Note: on the podcast, we talked about a study which identified a correlation between doctors being offered meals from sales rep, with the apparent effect of an increase in the prescription of branded drugs. We'd like to note that transparency provisions are now in place to preclude this, as well as to forbid provisions of meals or any gifts from pharmaceutical companies -

How much does your current self help your future self? Do you often take actions to safeguard your financial future or develop beneficial habits?
The degree to which we do it varies from individual to individual, but behavioural science can help us shed light on certain biases that we tend to be susceptible to and that can help dismantle the work that our current selves puts in for our future selves. That behaviour can even be hinted at by the language we use and it is extremely important to be mindful of when carrying our market research and asking the current selves of respondents questions about what the future holds
Join Alex, Emma, David and Jeremy on a journey to discover why we don't always act in the best interest of our future selves and how we might be able to change that -
