New @eukidsonline.bsky.social / @irtis.bsky.social study shows there’s no simple answer on how tech affects teens: effects vary by person and type of use. Smartphones & social media may raise stress or negative feelings, but show no clear effect on social well-being.📱https://shorturl.at/f0rQW

Why do people moralize harmless carnal sins (e.g. gluttony, masturbation)?

@danielnettle.bsky.social & I find that these behaviors activate reciprocity-based moral judgment—no need for a distinct "purity" module.

Chart showing projections for child poverty until 2035 where this is projected to reach 36%.

Without ambitious policy change, child poverty is projected to increase dramatically over the next decade.

In fact, should the Government continue with existing policy, our projections suggest child
poverty will hit 33 per cent in 2029-30, a level not seen since 1998-99.

Chart showing that in 2018, the UK was among the worst in Europe for child poverty rates, second only the Greece.

The UK is among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty.

In the UK, 11% of 15-year-olds reported they had skipped a meal in 2022 because there wasn't enough money to buy food.

In the Netherlands and Finland, this number was 3%.

The Causal Bandits episode with me is finally up! We talked about a hodge-podge of causal inference and methods issues. I already got one positive testimonial from my boss who listened to the first half and liked it!

Of the million excess deaths, Marmot calculated that 148 000 can be directly linked to austerity measures brought in by the coalition government in 2010. “Arguably, austerity killed 148 000 people. That was a pretty momentous political choice,” he said.
