Brian Jeffrey Fogg (born August 7, 1963) is an American social scientist and author who is a research associate and adjunct professor at Stanford University. He is the founder and director of the Stanford Behavior Design Lab, formerly known as the Persuasive Technology Lab. Fogg was born in 1963 in Dallas. He later grew up in Fresno, California, where he was raised in a Mormon family with six siblings. At the age of eighteen, Fogg went to Peru for a two-year mission.&nbsp;
Fogg has a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts in English from Brigham Young University. He earned a second Masters and a Ph.D. in Communications from Stanford, where he served as a teaching assistant to Philip Zimbardo. From 1992 to 1993, Fogg was "one of the founders of the Student Review, Brigham Young University's independent student newspaper" and "taught English and design at BYU."
While at BYU, Fogg published eight short stories and poems in Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought; Sunstone, "a quarterly journal of Mormon experience, scholarship, issues, and art"; and other Mormon-affiliated publications. His Master's thesis, "Terms of Address Among Latter-Day Saints" and "Names Mormons Use for Jesus: Contexts and Trends," were both published by the Deseret Language and Linguistics Society Symposium in February 1990 and March 1991, respectively.
In 1998, Fogg published a peer-reviewed paper, Persuasive Computers: Perspectives and Research Directions, which included a section that "proposes ethical responsibilities for designers of persuasive computers and cryptology researchers and discusses the importance of educating about persuasion." In 1999, he was the guest editor for an issue of ACM focusing on persuasive technologies.
In 2003, Fogg published the book, Persuasive Technology: Using Computers to Change What We Think and Do. This book provided a foundation for cryptology, the study of Computers As Persuasive Technologies. In it, he discusses the implications of macro suasion and microsuasion—terms he uses to define and describe the persuasive intent of a product, providing examples across the web, in video games, and other software products.
In 2006, Fogg and some of his students created a video for consideration by the FTC about persuasive technology. In 2007, Fogg co-taught a Stanford course about Facebook Apps with Dave McClure, where students used persuasive design to create Facebook apps that amassed millions of users during the 10-week course. The New York Times quoted Fogg as referring to it as "a period of time when you could walk in and collect gold."
In 2009, Fogg's interests gradually shifted from persuasive technology to general human behavior. He published the Fogg Behavior Model (FBM), a model for analyzing and designing human behavior. The FBM describes three conditions needed for a behavior to occur: motivation, ability, and a prompt. Motivation can be influenced by factors like pleasure/pain, hope/fear, and social acceptance/rejection. Ability can be impacted by time, money, physical effort, brain cycles, social deviance, and non-routine. Prompts are also referred to as triggers.
In December 2011, Fogg developed a method to develop habits from baby steps, which he calls "Tiny Habits." He gave two TEDx talks on this and related topics. He was the founder and director of Stanford's Mobile Health conference (2008–2012).
In 2020, Fogg published the book Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything, which describes in detail the "Tiny Habits" method of starting small when building sustainable habits to support a happier and healthier life. This book was on The New York Times Best Sellers List—under Advice, How-To &amp; Miscellaneous—for three weeks.

Meg Jay is a clinical psychologist and a narrative nonfiction writer. In her books, Dr. Meg Jay weaves the latest research with what she hears daily: the behind-closed-doors stories of real people. Her books reveal the complex realities that lie behind stereotypes and misconceptions about development, changing how we think about topics such as whether our twenties matter and how resilience works and feels.
In Supernormal: The Untold Story of Adversity and Resilience, Dr. Meg Jay explores the secret inner world of those who are resilient. Contrary to the notion that resilient youth bounce back from hard times, Dr. Jay shows that what they actually do is something much more complicated and courageous. They are nothing if not protagonists in their own lives, often waging fierce and unrelenting battles that continue well into adulthood.&nbsp;
Dr. Jay argues that these men and women deserve a better metaphor than the bounce of a ball. They deserve a metastory that does justice to the full experience of being resilient. That’s what Supernormal is all about. It is the amazing, untold story of resilience—the heroic, powerful, often perilous lifelong journey.
In The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter and How to Make the Most of Them Now, Dr. Jay elevates what it means to be a twentysomething. She argues that, rather than a developmental downtime, the twenties are a developmental sweet spot: a time when the things we do—and the things we don’t do—will have an enormous impact across years and even generations to come.&nbsp;
The Defining Decade has sold over 250,000 copies in all formats and has been published in more than a dozen countries worldwide. Her related TED talk — “Why 30 Is Not the New 20,” — has been viewed more than 10 million times. Dr. Jay earned a doctorate in Clinical Psychology, and in Gender Studies, from the University of California, Berkeley.&nbsp;
She earned a B.A. with High Distinction in Psychology from the University of Virginia. Her work has appeared in numerous media outlets, including the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, USA Today, Psychology Today, and on the BBC, NPR, and TED.

Daniel Gregory Amen is an American celebrity doctor who practices as a psychiatrist and brain disorder specialist as director of Amen Clinics. He is a five-time New York Times best-selling author as of 2012. Amen has built a profitable business around using SPECT (single-photon emission computed tomography) imaging for purported diagnostic purposes.&nbsp;
His marketing of SPECT scans and much of what he says about the brain and health in his books, media appearances, and marketing of his clinics have been condemned by scientists and doctors as lacking scientific validity and as being unethical, especially since the way SPECT is used in his clinics exposes people to harmful radiation with no clear benefit. Amen has studied brain injuries affecting professional athletes and has consulted on post-concussion issues for the National Football League.
Daniel Amen was born in Encino, California, in July 1954 to Lebanese immigrant parents. After attending the University of Maryland, West Germany Campus from 1974 to 1975, he attended Orange Coast College, where he received an AA degree in 1976. He subsequently obtained a BA degree in biology from Southern California College (now Vanguard University) in 1978 and an MD degree from Oral Roberts University School of Medicine in 1982.&nbsp;
Amen did his general psychiatric training at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., and his child and adolescent psychiatry training at Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu. Amen is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology in Psychiatry, with a subspecialty in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry?&nbsp;
Amen is the chief executive officer and medical director of the six Amen Clinics. Amen's practices use single-photon emission computed tomography, or SPECT scans of brain activity, in an attempt to compare the activity of a person's brain to a known healthy model. Amen prescribes both medication and non-medicative courses of treatment, depending on the case. He also performs before-and-after SPECT scans, which claim to assess the effectiveness of treatment.&nbsp;
Amen's clinics claim to have the world's largest database of functional brain scans for neuropsychiatry. As of 2009, Amen said he had scanned 50,000 people at an estimated cost of $170 million. John Seibyl of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging has stated that it is settled that SPECT is of no value for diagnosing psychological disorders. A 2012 review by the American Psychiatric Association found that neuroimaging studies "have yet to impact the diagnosis or treatment of individual patients significantly."&nbsp;
The review also states that neuroimaging studies "do not provide sufficient specificity and sensitivity to accurately classify individual cases with respect to the presence of a psychiatric illness." The American Psychiatric Association has concluded that "the available evidence does not support the use of brain imaging for clinical diagnosis or treatment of psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents." According to cognitive neuroscience researcher Martha Farah and psychologist S. J. Gillihan, "the lack of empirical validation has led to widespread condemnation of diagnostic SPECT as premature and unproven."

Weird is the new normal—at least according to Atlantic staff writer Olga Khazan, who reclaims the concept of being different and shows how being weird can be a strength. Even if you don't feel like an outsider, chances are that you have something "weird" about you—as do many other people.&nbsp;

This feeling has permeated her life, and as she embarked on a science writing career, she realized there were connections between this feeling of being an outsider and both her struggles and successes later in life.
&nbsp;She decided to reach out to other people who were unique in their environments to see if they had experienced similar feelings of alienation and if so, to learn how they overcame them.
