From around 4pm on Wednesday, I will be talking about a survey we are going to put into the field in the next few weeks. It is a simple but innovative survey about "Sludge" (~ frictions that make it harder for us to do what we want; the opposite of nudge). </div>

We'd be grateful for any feedback! Potential feedback relates to the sludge vignettes and ideas for new sludge vignettes (the DVs), the independent variables, whether we should present the data on vulnerability and acceptability in the same paper, what not
to forget when pre-registering... And is anybody aware of simple survey measures for scarcity (time/money/energy), present bias, unrealistic optimism, limited attention?</div>

and then follow up with questions on vulnerability to sludge (e.g. would it be difficult for you to carry out this task?) as well as acceptability of sludge (e.g. Is this procedure acceptable?).</div>

Then we test whether "vulnerability" and "acceptability" differ depending on (maybe a subset of) age, gender, education, employment status, ethnic group, marital status, living rural or urban, income, a measure of scarcity, physical health, mental health, having
a disability, personality traits, trust in government, and left/right political leaning.</div>

<div>I’d like to revisit our three PhD labs over the Summer. We have already found dates for Meetings 2 and 3 but we had to postpone Meeting 1 to TBD because of a clash with the Summer School that Hector is hosting.</div>

<div>I would suggest to move the first meeting to next week (on MSTeams). I have availabilities on Tuesday to Friday that week. To find the date that best fits most of us, I have created the following doodle:<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eZmjYGgd" originalsrc="https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eZmjYGgd" shash="XiKkxPiQr7gNIUjyZQg8eBIQBDtzthFXYmRHWV5VIXPnMrrXxC7Hth4+OuZb5WQ8YzAQ0ZVLCO1LrgJOqx8prw1vAa+AI9cxTe+kp4Cl/IJDzOltv3XiDCwKyGDZW4EbSErPXB9jsYeFooPd9nWHCqgCNUB7ml7PcgvU/b7tL/I=" id="OWA524b5814-b93c-8f94-962a-12a451dafb77" class="x_OWAAutoLink">https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/eZmjYGgd</a></div>

Dear PhD lab,<br>
<br>
Apologies, I meant to send this through a lot sooner.<br>
<br>
Shall we settle on a few dates to meet during the summer? I believe monthly meetings (on Teams) would make sense. That would give us three meetings until the beginning of the Autumn term.<br>
<br>
Let’s have our first meeting once Simon is back from leave.<br>
<br>
How about the following?<br>
<br>
Meeting 1: Wednesday, 3rd of July<br>
Meeting 2: Wednesday, 31st of July<br>
Meeting 3: Wednesday, 28th of August<br>
<br>
@Katie: Which one of these would you like to present in?<br>
<br>
I will also schedule 1:1 meetings with all Stirling-based PhD students in June. Please let me know your availability.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Till<br>
