What is this? Is it a preprint or a peer-reviewed article? A blog?
- yshklarov 2y agoCheck the "About" page. It's a self-published, non-peer-reviewed paper, written by a distinguished academic researcher.
- ketzu 2y agoOh it's Matthew Killingsworth, who was the first author of the one paper [1] about happiness I actually read! [1] https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2208661120 https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2208661120
- nmadden 2y agoThe About page doesn’t say anything about whether it was peer-reviewed or not (nor supplies any evidence that the author is “distinguished”). Maybe it was peer-reviewed and rejected, hence why a “distinguished” researcher would resort to self publishing? It seems to contradict other much larger-scale studies like https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-017-0277-0 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-017-0277-0
