An exception to the general rule: “if a newspaper headline ends in a question mark the answer is no”
Here the answer is yes. Dan Ariely is a complete fraud and so is Francesca Gino.
There are so many credible accusations of fraud against Ariely that about four of them get treated together very quickly at the end of the article, else the article would be several times longer. If you own his books, throw them away or shelve them with your fiction.
Also note that there are serious behavioral economics researchers who do hard work that isn’t remotely like this “nudging” or “priming” BS.
